No. Voters are not fully to blame. Hate and misogyny aren't the only reasons not to vote for a fascist-lite candidate. The Dems need to stop running to the right.

Lots of American citizens too. Most of them even!
Yes but you said all of those people only had a problem with how she was sold, and not what she was selling.
I meant the people as well as the biosphere and rock.
They only appeared decent. Their policy agendas were anything but.
You talking about Schumer and Dem consultants?
The funny thing is, you think this is real. In the real world you don't have to drink either. Obviously.
Some people disagreed with Kamala based on principles and deeply-held beliefs - it's not a question of not "sold well enough". That is your fiction.
The planet isn't doomed.
This first iteration of the American experiment probably is, and that's probably good for the planet.
Congrats on the 'whoosh'
It's great actually!
Tamer Nahed ππ΅πΈ @Tamer_Alnoaizy BlueSky is one of the worst platforms I have ever dealt with. Within seconds of creating a second account, after my first one was shut down just two days after it was created, my account was closed again. This happened despite the fact that I hadnβt posted anything or followed anyone. I was only in the process of adding a profile photo, yet I received an email claiming that my account was βspamβ and that it was βcausing harm.β What kind of logic is this? The painful truth is that the account was shut down the moment it became clear it was created from inside Gaza. It seems we are no longer allowed to write or speak about what is happening to us here. They are not afraid of content itself, but of our voices and the reality we carry with us. Millions are spent to silence these voices and to erase the truth. I am exhausted by this platform and by how our photos and videos, which document real suffering, are treated as βviolations of community standards,β as if pain itself has become a crime. What is happening is not simple moderation or policy enforcement. It is an attempt to erase our existence and bury the truth. And honestly, this is shameful and unbearably painful. [the original poster has included two screenshots showing the email from bluesky admin informing him that his account has been taken down for being 'spammy, inauthentic or disruptive to users'. it's the standard boilerplate you get when they take moderation action.] 2:45 PM Β· Feb 10, 2026 https://twitter.com/Tamer_Alnoaizy/status/2021234178461704409
palestinian journalist posting on twitter that his bluesky account was immediately taken down purely because he was in gaza. all palestinian accounts are assumed to be spam.
You want to know what's grim?
Labour opening the door for Reform.
Get the fuck out of the way and stop splitting the anti-Reform vote.
Weirdo, and not even in a good way.
Then why are they enacting it right now? On yer bike!
Which is crazy when you consider how godless those same people are.
Telling Jesus he'll never make it if he keeps being so hostile to wealth. Advising him to moderate his message to appeal to the Galilee suburbs
I never mentioned not voting.
Most of the time there are more than two candidates.
In a hypothetical where there is only a binary choice between fascism and fascist-appeasing neoliberalism, I personally would write-in or spoil my vote.
You want a slow-burn fascism; Of course we disagree! π
Incorrect.
The less evil party chooses to still be evil, failing to garner enough votes to beat the more evil party. The Democratic Party moving continuously to the right is how we got here. Nice try!
I have just taken another look at everything you've said. It turns out, upon review, that many of your replies have been using selective amnesia and confirmation bias.
That's okay. We fundamentally disagree.
I don't vote for evil. You will.
Both of us believe our own stance is the most practical.
(Plenty of them dropped over people too, not that you give a shit.)
Get some fucking standards gurl
War crimes are never cute π
Total and utter financial collapse would be one way. It'd be great for the planet! π
Kristi Noem would be better than Newsom. I'm not joking.
An incompetent fascist is preferable to a competent one.
An obvious fascist is better than one who is good at hiding their fascism.
People need to be pissed off at fascism, and less people are when Dems have their own fascist in power.
"Harm reduction" π
The concept comes from safe recreational drug use. It DOESN'T apply to electing diet-fascists.
You're the purist - a pure blue tribalist.
Your question is not relevant, but the answer is 206.

They can try, but it'd be a reverse-Enoch Powell situation if you catch my drift?
You're a DINO then. You'd vote for JD Vance if he had a D next to his name.
It is YOUR purity test! π
You said, "The electoral college needs to be eradicated. How? Through a constitutional amendment. How does that happen? We elect legislators willing to do it."
...and then you don't vote for legislators willing to do it. π€¦ββοΈ
Now That's What I Call Tiresome and Illogical!
Hello? Earth to @hatethisbs.bsky.social
Come and take your ass kicking please. And what's this "comeuppance" you think I deserve for daring to correct your brainwork posts?
How do you get the chance to elect legislators willing to do it?
You've only been voting for candidates that are willing to eradicate the electoral college, right?
Or do you promise votes to people ahead of time even if they are not willing to? Why would they be then?
