    “They voted for Trump to punish the Democrats.”

    Oh, that didn’t work. Losing elections isn’t the same as being punished. Not saying it was a bad move, I’m saying it was the wrong one. It was also a bad move though.

    “All Harris had to do was stop the war.”

    Oh is that it? Just as a VP / figurehead, swoop on over and say, “Stop it.” Man, why hasn’t anyone ever tried that before?

    Dearborn, I hope your lives work out ok. You’ve really fucked up.

      “We would have voted for Harris if she would just have brought peace to the Middle East!”

      Good luck getting justice with Matt Gaetz as attourney general and an imperial presidency intent on reversing everything the civil rights movement ever achieved.

            I’ve been watching that for my whole life. Democrats had the chance to enshrine our civil rights into law. Instead they stood by and did nothing. Now women can’t get abortions.

            That’s all you lot do. Nothing. You’ve never stood up for anything other than protecting the status quo. That’s why your candidate campaigned with republicans. That’s why she endorsed the genocide in Gaza and promised continued support for apartheid.

              Enjoy, if you don’t care what happens to you, I sure don’t either. This is how totalitarians take over countries e.g. Germany, Iran, they separate the left from the liberals. Looks like it’s working.

                I’m a leftist. I’m armed. Nothing is gonna happen to me. Nothing is gonna happen to our trans and queer brothers and sisters, because we’ll be out there in the streets in black bloc, while you sit at home complaining about how we’re causing a ruckus.

                You need to worry about your own neck.

                  And there it is, you’re probably an accelerationist and dream that after the system collapses you will emerge victorious. Don’t forget to create a multi-party system in your new country.

          So not American, but I have a feeling MLK worried about a whole lot more about civil rights, racism and poverty rather than the so-called “liberal threat.”

          Nice try.

            I was quoting him. He literally said moderates were the “greatest threat to justice”, and that they posed a challenge comparable to white supremacists.

            Nice try.

      Hmmm, let’s inspect this sample.

      Bland name calling, unimaginative reasoning, blind anger and content absolutely and WILDLY straying from the subject of the article.

      You sure, may be a tankie

    Love how one person’s quote is supposed to represent Dearborn. It was literally a fuck you to dems. Everyone in Dearborn knows trump is also going to do it. Rebuking the dems for doing it was the least they could do. They gave dems every opportunity to stop it.

    If all of you libs that wish ill upon them because your team didn’t win had a moment of self reflection you would realize that the dems weren’t saving anyone even if they won. When fascism shows up, blue or red, you fight it.

    Notice how the dems aren’t doing every maneuver they can to clip Trump’s upcoming power. Hell a bunch voted to allow charities and other ngos to be able to be declared terrorist. Thankfully some of the lesser known dems fought it off. The party leaders are part of the ruling class.

    Get off your assess and start doing some direct community support or action, no one is coming to save us, we protect us.

    Eh. Fuck off. I really don’t care anymore.

    You chose this. You knew exactly what was at stake, you knew who Trump was beyond any shadow of a doubt, you knew he was going to fully enable Isreal to wipe your family off the face of the earth. You knew.

    I fought all the bad faith arguments flying around here and beyond. All the “never genocide” bullshit. Every day, for the better part of a year.

    But you played stupid fucking games. And now we all have to find out.

    It sucks because people will suffer. Likely people I care about too. But this bleeding heart “liberal” has been bled dry. I can’t muster any more fucks.

      Liberals love to talk about how much their hearts bleed. But it was also liberals talking about how disruptive and criminal people protesting in black bloc were being last time Trump was in power. It was also liberals who were saying students protesting peacefully on campuses needed to be beaten and thrown in prison.

      You lot don’t give a shit about anyone but yourselves. You use minorities as tokens and ways to sell merch. The downside to that is that when the republicans are doing pogroms these next four years, they’re gonna be going after the people who aren’t armed. And while leftists will always have the backs of our queer and trans brothers and sisters, democrats can figure out defense and mutual support on your own. Because we remember who was really there for us last time, and it wasn’t you. It will never be you.

      Are you imaging a world where Kamala wasn’t full throatedly supporting the genocide as well? Kamala “Most lethal military”, “Israel has a right to defend itself”, “No arms embargo”, “I’m basically Joe Biden but I want Republicans in my cabinet” Harris?

        Yeah, you can fuck right off too. The news is already full of evidence that Trump is explicitly enabling Isreal to do wayyyy worse. Just like we all told you.

        I’m done arguing in good faith with you asshats. Mods can remove my posts, ban me, whatever. Giving you clowns free reign to canvas lemmy with bad faith arguments just because they are borderline civilly worded is what helped disenfranchise the small slice of the internet lemmy represents.

        Fuck you and fuck off. I’m done.

          I vote we bring back “die in a fire” for the type of person you are responding to. Them fucking off hasn’t worked and doesn’t elicit a response that equals the damage their rhetoric has caused.

            I’m just glad you guys are finally admitting you don’t give a shit about minorities. Maybe you’ll finally grow a backbone and get out there and protest. Or do LITERALLY FUCKING ANYTHING besides hand-wringing.

            Let’s be honest though, you’re probably gonna just end up being the racist shitwaffles you usually are.

      Minorities have been suffering for years under both democrats and republicans. If democrats can’t manage to survive four years, then that’s your problem.

    A world renowned, pathological liar “played you”? The guy famous for a decades long history of incredible contradictions, tall tales and epic falsehoods. That guy. The Mythomaniac to end all mythomanics. The compulsive liar that lies more easily than he breaths? He played you? Really? I’m shocked!
