    Fox News decided to invite a bunch of progressives? Don’t kid yourself.

    Republicans deny the existence of climate change and vaccines and many other topics that were brought up in that townhall. Your feelings won’t change that.

    Everything else in your response was conjecture and excuses.

    Polls also showed she alienated a core left-wing demographic that stayed home.

    At least you acknowledge that pandering to the left is a waste of time. Leftist have a reputation for not showing up to vote. But that is probably because there are so few of them that they need to team up with democrats just to have a voice.

    Voters were very clear that they would consider it a betrayal to primary instead of replacing Biden with the Vice President since that is the job of a vice president.

    Trump says way more crazy shit than Biden and he won. Matter of fact Trump lost by a lot in 2020, if he were to follow the same strategy as leftists he would’ve quit before trying again in 2024.

    All politicians and forms of government are susceptible to corruption. Just look at Fetterman and Sinema. Just because someone claims to be progressive doesn’t mean they won’t help the billionaire class or fascists.

    I saw that town hall on Fox News with Bernie. The people in the audience were asking about what he was going to do to fix climate change and a lot of subjects that Republicans deny even exists. That audience wasn’t Republican don’t lie to yourself.

    Bill Clinton won two consecutive terms.

    Hillary Clinton won the popular vote and lost because of Russian election interference.

    Biden won.

    Harris lost because of inflation caused by post covid supply chain problems, according to the polls.

    Ignoring the fact that voters chose the furthest option to the right give the next election to the GOP, if there is another election.

    Just because what you’re saying on lemmy gets upvotes doesn’t mean it would get votes irl.

    Popular opinions on lemmy are the exact opposite of what voters vote for.

    There was recently a post here on lemmy that proposed AOC running for president and the top voted comment was that she would lose. Even here on lemmy enough people are aware of the leftists echo chamber and how detached it is from reality.

    AOC and Bernie stopped in my red state. I went and saw more than half the license plates were from out of state. Those that were from my state were from the one blue county.

    We recently had an election between an establishment Republican and a progressive and the progressive lost by a landslide.

    Don’t lie to yourself. AOC and Bernie have fans that will travel to see them from other states.

    Democrats are trying to stop progressives from throwing the election like they have every time they win a primary.

    Progressives can’t even beat other candidates that get funded by AIPAC let alone beat republicans.

    Leftists consistently lose elections.

    Voters have consistently shown they don’t want to elect leftists.

    Centrists have won the majority of elections since the 90s.

    AOC and Bernie would lose worse than Harris in a national election. Just like all leftists have.

    When voters have chosen the option furthest to the right it is stupid to think that running a candidate further left would do anything but lose.

    I am vegan for the health benefits: avoiding colon cancer, avoiding type 2 diabetes, improved cholesterol , reducing visceral fat, avoiding overeating, longer healthier life, etc.

    Not contributing to animal cruelty is a bonus but not my motivation so lab grown meat isn’t going to change the way I eat.

    If it becomes efficient enough to reduce greenhouse emissions then that would be the only benefit I would get from it.











  • The timing, the fact that it was only used against democrats is a sign that the GOP will use it to their advantage.

    The way it was done is also an issue. In this context, the message of the protest was that democrats needed to give the protestors what they want. Otherwise democrats wouldn’t get votes from the protestors. Resulting in the protestors helping Trump get elected.

    Democrats have constituents that do not agree with those protestors and so democrats would’ve lost votes by giving into the protestors. Resulting in the protestors helping Trump get elected in this outcome also.

    In my opinion, supporters of a party should express what they want changed by engaging with their politicians.

    The only time that won’t work with a politician is if their intel indicates they gain more votes by not making those changes.

    In that scenario, the supporters need to accept that the majority rules in a democracy and vote for the lesser of two evils because that is in the best interest of those supporters.

    Instead what happened was protestors cut off their nose to spite their face and now things are much worse as a result.


  • So if Trump wasn’t the candidate that trump is, he wouldn’t have won? I mean he was Trump tho.

    This statement indicates you think Trump won because of who he is.

    My statement points out it is not because of who he is but instead because Russia chose to interfere in elections.

    In other words, if Trump dies today, Russia would find another person to fill his place and would use the same propaganda tactics to help get them into a position of power.

    This is because Trump is a puppet. Your comment was evidence you don’t understand that that is why he won.
