      But your favourite candidate also lost but it’s not her fault according to you, it is everybody else fault. See how hypocritical you are?

        “Projection of your own argument”?

        What is that even supposed to mean…

          You are complaining about people not voting for Newsom because Newsom is not popular but then pretend other people whine about their candidate being unpopular not being the candidates fault.

      Fr, funny how these alt-left mfers love democracy except when it turns out their candidate just doesn’t have the votes. If Jill Stein couldn’t win a majority of left voters via a primary, then how is she going to win a national election? And why can’t these alt-left parties ever start grassroots movements at the local level, instead they only care about presidential elections and just want to skip straight to the endorsement without winning any primaries, and if they can’t do that then they take their ball and go home?

        This would be funny if Kamala also never won a primary and was the Democratic candidate for the 2024 general election.

        Stop. You’re hurting their feelings and that’s going to force them to blow their vote on a 3rd party or not vote again, leading to more conservative fascism.

        And why can’t these alt-left parties ever start grassroots movements at the local level, instead they only care about presidential elections and just want to skip straight to the endorsement without winning any primaries

        You’re confusing them with logic. You’re going to boil their brains. Please have mercy.

        Because, like I said, they have no ambitions of political influence. Only virtue-signaling and purity-testing.

          Bingo.

          It’s the whole Palestine thing. They chose not to vote or vote 3rd party, which helped put the side objectively worse for Palestine in control, because they never actually cared about Palestine. They only cared about their own feelings. Their own self satisfaction.

            takeaway could be “the democrats would rather lose to fascists than oppose genocide and gain third party voters”
