    Dems didn’t “lose” the working class. Misinformation overshadowed the message.

    There’s a lot the Dems can do for unions and working-class normal folks. But Kamala could have cured cancer with a touch and they wouldn’t have believed it because everything else they consume downplays the improving economy, security and stability under Biden so it was ultimately useless.

    Buckets of roubles on Facebook and X won this election.

      The DNC has completely abandoned the working class. It’s not misinformation. They simply do not care about us.

        The DNC has completely abandoned the working class.

        Maybe you should try looking up Democrat’s voting history and their accomplishments for the working class before you make statements like this.

        Democrats are pro union. Biden was the first president in U.S. history to stand on a picket line with striking workers.

        And stupid Americans just decided to vote in the born rich billionaire that has openly stated he is anti-union and anti-worker rights. Democrats aren’t the problem. Stupid Americans are.

          Surely, this messaging is going to help your party from being seen as the out-of-touch party of “coastal elites”

          Also, the Democrats are one of the two most powerful capitalist political organizations in the world. They fight and organize for capital, not the working class and definitely not the working class outside the US.

            I’m not a politician. I don’t care about messaging. I’m stating the obvious. I don’t care how many feelings get hurt.

            People hold the Democrat party to this extremely high standard and think it’s their job to woo and coerce people to vote for them. That’s horse shit. It’s American’s responsibility to be good citizens and inform themselves responsibly and be adults by making intelligent decisions based on actual data.

            And anyone that’s actually done that knows that the better decision for average Americans is FAR AND AWAY the Democrat party.

            They fight and organize for capital, not the working class

            Their voting history proves you wrong.

            I’m tired of people expecting Democrats to be picture perfect while Republicans prance around talking about immigrants eating people’s pets and not being sexually attracted to M&M’s anymore because liberals ruined that for them and winning fucking elections by doing so.

            It’s fucking pathetic and it’s American’s fault for being stupid. Period.

      Yup.

      Everyone’s crying about the Democrat party, but they’re ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE better than the Republican party. Seriously, people need to stop whining and compare both party’s voting history and accomplishments. It’s not even a contest. Democrats get more done.

      The bottom line is the majority of Americans aren’t intelligent enough to navigate this new age of weaponized misinformation. That isn’t Democrat’s fault. All they can really do is try to weaponize misinformation to combat Republican’s misinformation. And that’s morally wrong. Probably the only way though.

      Stupid populace. Dark future.

        Also, please, for the love of $DEITY, don’t call them this. There is no such thing as the Democrat party. This is an epithet from the right.
