Oh look. A candidate with actual policy won their race. Check out her page; she ran for a city council seat and her ‘issues’ section is five times longer than Kamala’s was.
Dems should be taking notes, but I doubt they will.
Would you stop with the nonsense? Harris had an 80 page economic plan.

All of this hopefulness assumes they don’t erode voting rights over the next 4 years. And they’ve had plenty of time to stage exactly that, including captured courts when anyone fights those new laws.
Don’t give it to them freely. If we give in, they can just move on to the next thing. Make even minor law changes a pain for them. Fight every battle so that they cannot spend as much time eroding voting rights.
Elections are run at the state level, even ones for federal office. Make sure every local office is filled with a progressive that will stand up for it. Some states have elections next year (before midterms) for offices that are going to matter for exactly that
I don’t think any supreme court justices are in this thread, and they are the ones that mostly have a say.
Eroding voting rights will be done on a federal level.
I’m not saying you are wrong, we should definitely protest, resist, and vote in local elections, but we don’t really get a say now that the country decided to give the reigns to fascists. I don’t think people realize how hard this will be to undo. These SC justices are going to be there for a very long time.
I’ve heard tentative plans for a mass general strike in 4 years. It won’t be easy, but if they won’t hear our voices, they don’t get our labor. There’s a lot of preparation to do between now and then, and we’re going to have to look out for each other. But labor has more power than we realize if we just use it.
They had their Tea Party. It’s time for our Guillotine Party, to address the problems created by the Second Estate.
Yyyyyeeeeeessssssss
It’s fucking time. My guillotine is fucking thirsty.
Nope… done fighting. So many stupid fucks voted against themselves. Let them be leopard food.
And tens of millions did not. Fight for them
Nope… I foolishly believed that one Trump term would be enough to teach everyone that they really needed to participate and make sure that never happened again. Instead, they came back and said they wanted even more. Now they can have all the more they want. Stupidity and willful-ignorance has consequences. Democracy is dead. It’s everyone for themselves now. Sticking your neck out to try to fight at this point just makes you a target. I guess if you have nothing to lose, then go for it.
I’m not giving in. I just think we deserve everything that’s going to happen.
We (Americans) do, the rest of the world, no.
Even Americans as a whole dont. Did you vote for Trump? Given the userbase of this platform, Im guessing likely not. What about someone who isnt yet of voting age? Or even who was just born, and therefore cant even have contributed memes and talking points to Trump’s cause? There are a great many people who did what they could to stop Trump and were outnumbered, or who simply had no ability to affect the situation and so had no part in causing it. All these people are guilty of is happening to be born within the same lines on a map as a bunch of fascists and fools that have been duped by fascists.
