If they can elect a felon to the white house, so could we.

    Yeah, supporting genocide in order to prevent a genocide that the person you’re voting for is also advocating for because harris went so far right on immigration Trump wasn’t the greater evil is still right wing.

    We’re not in a dictatorship, or rather we’re in the same exact dictatorship of capital.

      Again, Harris lost, which is what you wanted. The right-winger won. That was the only other option, so it must have been what you wanted.

      So I have no idea why you’re calling me right-wing. Or why you’re defending Trump.

        No, I wanted a left wing populist. Or at least someone that promised popular (>60%) policies like m4a, stopping support of Israel, elimination of given BLM mining/drilling contracts, maybe even mention minimum wage.

        Instead we got a right wing cop with a border policy more draconic than anything Trump has ever suggested.

        No shit she lost. She wasn’t different, and used the least popular policies.

          Again, there were two viable options- Trump or Harris. You made it clear just now that Harris should have lost. That means you wanted Trump to win.

          And now you’re defending him by saying he won’t be a dictator even though he literally says he’ll be a dictator and that he won’t be committing genocides even though he has made his genocidal plans very clear and he’s being aided in them right now.

          So, again, you got what you wanted and you’re defending your choice. So I have no idea why you’re calling me right-wing.

            Both of them should have lost. Most people are worse off now than in 2020. Another four years of either Harris or Trump is bad. Supporting wither right wing option makes you right wing. Repeating the bullshit argument that you had no choice but to vote for genocide and mass deportation does nothing to change anything.
