I thought FUD was a cryptobro term.

    While the democrats should have supported palestine, voting blue would have led to a favourable outcome anyway.
    Not voting doesn’t help palestine whatsover. I get the arguments against lesser evil stuff, but its a bit easier to fix a broken system when the system isn’t dissappearing people.

      I live in a state where her winning was a forgone conclusion, if I didn’t maybe I would have protested in another way. I’m not advocating for acceleration, the democrats are more an organization of managed decline, while Trump was clearly dead-set on kicking the leg out from under the table. I’m not interested in seeing it all fall apart, if anything I find that when I try to warn against what I think are the harmful decisions the Democrats make I get dismissed out of hand.

      I will say that I am finding much higher frequency of people showing up to in person organizing in the last 3 months than in the last ~3 years under Biden.

        Well, there is a lot more to protest now with Trump.

        It is annoying for people to dismiss any critisism against the democrats. Some people think they are a perfect, flawless party.
