    Fascism it is I guess. I wish things could be different, but the liberals didn’t want to compromise. Oh well.

      I can’t tell which group you’re calling the liberals who don’t compromise. Is it the left who won’t vote the Republicans out or is it the DNC?

          Is that really left and or liberal if it is neither progressive nor respects human rights? If anything Israel genocide is a conservative centrist policy.

            That’s fair to think if you’re not from the US, but many Democrats are considered left here and they’re really not. They may support the gays, minorities, or equality of women in some respects, but they’re right-wing in almost every other way.

              Until they get any pushback at all from conservatives.

            And for some reason, it wasn’t a winning issue with a party full of leftists and liberals. But conservatives like you loved it so much you would rather lose to trump that suggest that it stop.

              Nobody who cared about a single Palestinian life should ever have considered allowing Trump to win for even a single moment. Nobody who protested the dems in the general actually cared about Palestine unless there was a serious and major disinformation campaign pressuring them to do so.

              This nation’s official stance went from “end the war and bring peace to the middle east” to Pete Hegest as Secretary of War declaring “death or exodus” for every Palestinian.

                Your argument can’t see past your own hand. By endorsing a party continually getting worse every cycle, the party is guaranteeing the republicans would win, making fighting for democrats a waste of time and energy, they refuse to do what is needed to win, and stop the fascist political machine.

                We knew they couldn’t win as their only selling point being better than the other guy, while getting worse every cycle. Not just on foreign policy, on selling us out to the plutocracy, not changing anything back, that they see themselves as good cop to R bad cop is inescapable, apparently thinking election theft projections are all performative. In denial that Republicans aren’t playing bad cop, but Hitler.

                On foreign policy specifically, Biden kicked off that round by endorsing veritable blood libel, claiming to have seen the evidence of 40 beheaded babies by Hamas, a patently false allegation, and never corrected himself. All for a country working to sabotage him, with blackmail on half of our politicians and businessman.

                There is, and never was, any way out from the abyss of fascism, with these democrats running the opposition. The only path is getting new leadership.

                  The only thing that has gotten worse every cycle is livelihood in the USA because the DNC have been left out of power for over 13 years.

                  The DNC keep moving left but the campaigns against them by foreign powers and billionaires gets stronger every day.

                    What? The DNC, moving left? What are you, [insert phrase denoting delusional/dishonest]? The DNC, DCCC, and the rest, are owned by and run for the oligarchy, they are The Enemy. They single handedly doomed us, we knew what the Republcans were, and trusted them to be the opposition to it. I fucking told you too. Admit it, so we can get real leaders with popular reform and not fail in our last fucking chance to take it back in the succession, before elections are fixed too tight to ever take it back.

                    keep repeating that lie. They had 50 and CHOSE not to wield the majority we gave them.

                Yeah. But democrats wanted genocide so badly that they preferred trump over telling netanyahu no. Lord knows you did.
