US 2024 Presidential Election

[tippy2k2]

Unfortunately, in this election, you get to vote for partial genocide or full genocide. Even if you don't vote, it's going to happen on your behalf anyway

We've been warning you #VBNMW people that if you keep just letting Democrats slide to the right because THE OTHER GUY IS WORSE that eventually we'd end up with a Republican with a D next to their name in office. Now that that has happened, you still have the gall to ask us to compromise on fucking GENOCIDE rather than stand up to Harris and The Democrats over their unwillingness to do a single thing about it.

I'll say it again and as long as you dorks keep whining at me that I HAVE to vote Harris cause otherwise Trump might win...

If Genocide isn't a deal breaker for you, feel free to vote for Harris but I will not be doing that. If Genocide can't even be a Red Line for you to not #VBNMW, there is never going to be a Red Line for you.

Why do you guys so often have to end up calling everyone who disagrees with you Nazis?

I appreciate that you might feel frustrated and pressured by so many people disagreeing with you, but there are better ways to deal with it. Not least because once you've gone there, those people will tend not to care what you say anymore. I might argue that's part of why the US Green Party, and many progressive groups, struggle to get anywhere.

I have not called a single person in here a Nazi

I'm just using your own tagline right back at you

And they will never, ever be conquered because history has ended?

Everywhere there is peace, there was once war. Someone lost all those wars, and eventually accepted it. That is a pathway to peace, repeatedly pushing the fighters back to their own corners of the ring to catch their breath is a path to more fighting.

I wouldn't say everywhere 'accepted it'. Many just didn't think violence was the answer

But we can't really have that either. Because Israel does not want to properly integrate the conquered population and give them citizenship.

So word on the street is that today the polls suddenly shot up in Trump's favor. Is there any news on how reliable that is, or why that would be?

I wouldn't bet on it yet. So far, nothing concrete coming from anyone on that, so I am ignoring it for now.


A reminder everyone, I already voted.

With three weeks out, here's how many have already voted absentee in Michigan

With three weeks out, 31% of Michigan voters who requested an absentee ballot have returned them to their clerk's office. That includes more than 41,000 in Detroit.

No idea, maybe liberals have stopped answering polls due to fear of outing themselves to be targets in a future Trump admin.

Harris still leads but has lost about 1%. She's up by 2.4%, where about a month and a half ago she led by 3.3%.

People (on the whole) didn't "let" the Democrats go hard right, they didn't see a good option to preventing them. Yet, it's a terrible situation, but there's many Dem voters who can't really be blamed for that. Bunch of them who are fine with the far-right slide, of course, but I don't know the proportion.
