The number of leftists saying they've lost the election due to recent events is disappointing. Getting out and voting is all they have to do.

That's not the game. The game is persuading about 100,000 of America's most politically ignorant and disengaged adults across about 6 states.

The Democrats getting a massive hard-on for their civility fetish and conceding the debate to Trump and the fascists for the foreseeable future is the problem.

But gosh. Sure Trump wants to take away my rights, but Biden is like old. I don’t know what to do?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Like many others I would vote for Biden's animated corpse over Trump, but I'm not a mythical "undecided voter"

40 million people didn't vote at all last time. If they don't want to elect a dictatorship perhaps they might turn up and vote.

In a sense, it is the easiest problem to solve. Trump could be dog food in November with one simple trick -Voting.

i think that macron and starmer towing american hegemony and mitigating leftists election victories is a bigger indication of where things are going whether or not the recent events end up work in our favor.

Agreed, corporate run centrists and establishment neoliberals act as stop gaps preventing the leftwing promises of democracy and enlightenment era leftist politics from being truely fulfilled, by instead deferring to the profit driven whims of wealthy internationalists and Capitalists, which undermine national interests whilst appearing to support national interests.

It's ugly and incompetent. If I'm to be honest, it's a national health and security issue too. But people act like you're speaking gibberish or saying something controversial when you point it out because of the hegemonic conditioning of Capitalism and its economic falsehoods.

I know the first two flags. Which one is on top?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Patriot Front, an American neonazi group

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Ah okay, I am not up to date with my Nazi groups, let alone their flags.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Why is the top most flag not the standard US flag?

The federal government itself certainly took on the first two fights.

I don't get the hate against the South, which lost the war. Some american have to explain it to me, cause if they won the war why still be mad about it?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The South fought for the explicit purpose of preserving racial chattel slavery. That's bad.

They've been spreading myths to make themselves look better and justify racism against others ever since. That's also bad.

Thanks for the reasonable answer. I still don't understand why I get downvotes. Some kind of taboo topic?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Well, a big problem in the modern US, and one of the reasons Shermanposting exists, is because a lot of Americans with... unpleasant views... try to push the narrative that the South "wasn't that bad" or was "just fighting for States' rights" or "1 DIXIE BOY = 100 YANKEES" or "Slaves actually benefited from slavery".

The downvoters probably assumed you were one of them playing innocent instead of a genuine newcomer to the topic.
