    “The cat is now out of the bag” see that’s the problem right there. The US has had obviously bad politics for a really long time, and if you needed the last election to tell you that then it is you who are astronomically stupid and ignorant.

    What moved 48% of voters was Trump being himself and voters voting against him instead of for Harris. I highly doubt a leftist candidate who was actually engaging and a true representative of the people would have had a hard time winning. Harris herself was doing pretty well at the start when she had a much more progressive message and then she blew it all up by fucking around with Liz Cheney and halting any of the shit that got her campaign going at the start.

      Fuck off with the ad hominem I’m not even American. I just so happen to be someone who doesn’t share the strategic read of your social media bubble.

      The American mind can’t even comprehend different takes without resorting to name calling. What a brain dead culture. Fuck all the way off.

        I’m not from the US either, chief. Besides, where you’re from has no bearing on my comment.

          And yet you talk vicious like they do, when someone doesn’t 100% align with their moronic takes. You didn’t even address 1% of my comment before resorting to insults. Fuck you and your kind.

            Literally your entire comment is based entirely on screaming at me ynder the assumption that I was from the US. Now you’re big mad that you look like an idiot and taking it out on me because you’re so painfully insecure you nothing can ever be your fault. The only “insult” in my comment was that I called you “chief.”

            No insult I can throw at you will ever be as impactful as what you seem to think about yourself, so I’ll let you do your thing.

          Yeah I know. It’s just so generalized on us-dominated platforms. It’s frustrating.

        You’re going around blaming people for fascism who have nothing to do with it.

          They had nothing to do with it but if they had voted, the US and to some extent the world wouldn’t be in this mess. And they’re trying to blame Dem strategists for their own failure to do the easiest thing, which was to hold your nose and vote for a stinking liberal rather than let a literal fascist win.

          Western electorates are so deep in the main character syndrome that when they fail they have to spin it as somebody else’s strategic error. Classic golden child bullshit.
