Apparently not voting in America is “voting for Trump”, but it’s “not voting for Harris”.
One can only conclude that either:
- Trump was the default in the voting ballot but nobody got told about it.
- That “rationale” is a piece of political propaganda meant to exonerate the Democrat Party leadership from their unwillingness actually try and attract voters with actual policies that appeal to them in order to win against Trump, by blaming the very people they didn’t even try to appeal to.
Not voting is effectively half a vote for whoever ultimately wins. That’s how a fucking FPTP system works, Jesus Christ.
This is actually an insane take with no relation to reality. The fact is the majority of americans live in states that will vote for their party regardless of any other factors. If you are in one of these states, im sorry but your vote in a general election doesn’t matter.
The dems have worked hard to make sure your vote in the primary doesn’t matter much either, just ask Bernie. (Im sure the Republicans have done the same but I don’t really care as I don’t vote in that primary. Maybe ask Ron Paul, i have no idea.)
Fuck’s sake, Bernie lost by double digits both primaries. Fuck off with this ‘rigged primary, votes don’t matter!’ nonsense that useful idiots for the DNC peddle to reduce progressive turnout.
You paid no attention to the actual race then, otherwise you would be aware Bernie won in California then the DNC played its typically game by promising every moderate a cabinet position if they dropped out and endorsed Biden, but let the progressives stay divided.
Just pay attention to what happens with Mamdani if you don’t believe me. They already started their games with Cuomo running as third party now and people like Schumer and Jeffries not endorsing him.

And thus crumpling every progressive ballot from that point forward, right?
No?
It just meant that the moderates united around a single candidate?
Great point. I didnt get to talk about how the DNC didnt allow a primary in 2024. Should we talk about that or would you be willing to admit the DNC is pretty fucked up sometimes?
I’ve never denied that the DNC is fucked up, genius. Sorry that you think criticizing people for purity politics-ing minorities into death camps is mutually exclusive with having any other opinions.
