You’ve just described a majority of the Democratic party as well. Don’t forget a majority here was certain that Joe Biden was more dynamic than he’d ever been, and later convinced that supporting Israel’s genocide and neocons would win Kamala the election.

No. It takes a truly shallow mind to come to this conclusion. Most of us Democrats understand how politics work and knew it was Trump or Harris once Biden stepped down. That’s it, no third option. Only a true idiot or a Trump supporter (same thing) would think not voting, voting this party, it voting for Trump was in anyway better for Israel, Ukraine, and America.

Not really. If your focus is beyond the next 4 years, you can argue letting Democrats lose is the best strategy to stop wars on the planet down the line.
In fact if Kamala was going to loose either way (as it happened) it’s a good thing that she lost hard.

You can argue that. It is a stupid argument, but you can argue it.

Accelerationist arguments always show that the speaker isn’t nearly as smart as they think they are.

Because accelerationist arguments are always wrong.

Anyone who makes that argument has no idea how bad things can get and how fast.

but in the long term there’s always a swing back the other way

So were you gaslighting yourselves about Biden’s mental health or the rest of us?
BassTurd@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Biden > Trump, bad mental health or not.

Exactly.
