You really showed people how to make a difference now that... Trump is in?
Ignore for a second that voting does not actually makes a difference in U.S. foreign policy.
Every third party anti-genocide protest voter changing their vote for Harris in every battleground state is not enough to make up for the margins Harris lost by. But keep believing in the narrative that somehow it's the left's fault and not the goofy ass campaign decisions and Biden clinging to power until the 11th hour.
She was always doomed.
I don't think it makes sense to keep up with this "look what you idiots did" garbage i see so often because, as you said, it isn't a guarantee that it would made a difference, unsolicitedly gloating at someone that their poor decision has lead to increased misery is gross and counterproductive, and it inherently reduces the ultimate culpability on Republican voters that did in fact directly vote for this and should all be held to account. That said, there is a good chance that between abstentions, third party protest votes, and the distribution of both across the critical EC votes, the movement may have tipped the scales--but there is really no way to know either way.
I'm not the one that keeps attempting to punch left and blame leftists for liberal failures. It is only liberal Harris defenders that continually bring this up. But let's fact check this.
The data shows that you cannot blame third party voters for the failures to garner enough voters to beat Donald Trump. Even if you convinced every single third party voter it still wouldn't be enough. There's no way count abstentions, but you have no proof to make the claim. Liberals need to stop making the claim and lying.
Are you replying to the wrong post? You are effectively agreeing with me but just wrapping it up in a shitty unnecessarily aggro tone?
No I am not replying to the wrong post. I am being aggressive towards the gaslighting that liberals are not to blame for their own failures. I cited the best data we have available to us and it points to the narrative that third party voters did not hand republicans the election like liberals like to claim in order to deflect all blame away from themselves. It's an undefendable position because it is one not grounded in reality.
Yea, ok. Just gonna block and move on. Another hyper aggro .ml just doing the same bullshit as libs on the flipside of the same shitsucking coin. Have the life and day you deserve!
