  • Have you considered that? Maybe the amount of attention Americans give the presidential election is many times more than any other election? Do you think Americans are more likely to know the current president and who they ran against In the last election than their own senator? Or their own member of the House of reps?

    Do you think that might affect things?

    Be serious my dude



  • Bernie would definitely outperform Biden. This is just a fact. Left-Wing candidates do better with higher voter turnout. They get higher voter turnout when people are actually excited about the person they’re voting for, especially young people. Young people hate Biden. You can see this from all the protests about the genocide and Palestine he’s enabling. Will have low voter turnout compared to Bernie. Biden might lose the election giving us Trump again.

    Don’t mean to tell you what you already know a stranger. Just saw you being gaslit and wanted you to know that you’re not crazy 👈😎



  • Consistently go to a group that is centered around an interest of yours. Consistency is key.

    Use apps like meetup to find these groups.

    If you’re nerdy/geeky Aunt like computers and making stuff or 3D printing. I recommend looking in the maker spaces. There a lot of them around. They are communities where people can contribute what they have and people get together and make stuff and learn from each other.

    If you’re kinky, I recommend looking into local BDSM clubs. I find the crowds there tend to be very leftist.

    Those aren’t your speed. Maybe something more basic like a hiking group. Maybe there are salsa dance classes at a bar/cantina near you every week. Doesn’t really matter what it is. Just find a group that’s centered around something you like. Then attend that group regularly. Do that long enough you will make friends.

    Source: I’m a 28 year old introvert and I have more friends than I have social battery to hang out with regularly

    I hope that helps comrade 👈😎

    Also remember most people suck so if you make a bad impression or piss some people off they were probably shitty people to begin with. Don’t let it discourage you. 😊

    I did participate in the primary process. I voted in every primary and election since I turned 18. I’m also not young.

    I hate how liberals think that they know politics because they’re used to arguing with Republicans. Republicans are so dumb and separated from reality that you can say almost anything and be more correct than them. So liberals think that they’re smart. And they never bother to learn they’re only a little less ignorant than Republicans.

    Say what you will about marat. At least he participated in the French revolution and I for what he believed in. If you don’t see his writing his labor, I fear that’s because you’re too uneducated to know how hard writing that much can be. Makes total sense to me. You’d characterize him as lazy because he had chronic illness. Seems like you’re used to looking down on people less privileged than you.

    I’m not going to vote for Trump. If my state were a swing state, I’d vote for Biden. I’m going to work on getting us a third option with my vote since im not in a swing state.

    !you don’t get to say both choices suck,!<

    What’s the point of this whole democracy thing if I can’t even say my piece? Like what are we defending if we’re just going to get in line and shut up anyway?

    Anyways the two parties are still basically the same. We deserve an actual left wing party.

    Leftists: you’re running a corpse that’s committing a genocide that tons of tons of younger voters are actually protesting against. Also no Democrats only when elections when voter turnout is high. We should run a more likable candidate so we don’t lose to the fascist?

    Liberals(the scratch a liberal a fascist bleeds kind): That’s accelerationism! you want Trump to win. This isn’t like 2016 all over again but also Running Hillary was the right decision. People just voted wrong. 🤡

    If Biden stays in and Trump wins, I just want you to know you’re the useful idiot fuck you.

    Sure. They both benefit from the same situation. Both benefit from the weird electoral system the states have and they both benefit by being one of only two parties. Infact they are almost completely dependent on each other. Once Republican Democrat politicians realized they could get elected by getting people afraid of the opposition instead of excited for their candidate they’ve had this country voting for the lesser of two evils ever since. 🤷

    Both options suck, but the Democrats are slightly better than the Republicans. They both get paid by the same people and they both push forward the same agenda. For example, probably the most left-wing policy we’ve had come out of our countries. Federal government in a long time is Obamacare. But Obamacare was actually thought up by a right-wing think tank called the heritage foundation. It’s a Republican idea that works as bad as other Republican ideas but because it was put forward by a Democrat because who’s going to defend it? The real solution is single-payer universal healthcare like any other non-backwards ass country has. But the Democrats being controlled opposition put Obamacare there instead.

    Hope that helps you understand where other people are coming from. 👈😎 I find the short form memes like that used to strip away. Nuance and “trigger” those who disagree with you to be a very trumpet esque style of memeing.

    Honestly the longer this left infighting goes on the more hopeless I get. This isn’t going to work. The corpse of genocide Joe is just as bad a candidate as Hillary Clinton was in 2016. And I hate to say it but that means the fascist is probably going to win.

    So when Trump beats Biden in November what country should I move to to be safe? Australia seems like a decent pick so does New Zealand. I kind of think Vietnam might be fun. What are y’all’s thoughts.
