I’ve had some first hand experience of the Guardians IT systems and they can barely find their arse with both hands

“Can’t believe he talked his way OUT of a sure thing.”

People are great at stealing defeat from the jaws of victory!

Countdown to this guy being arrested for abusing kids or found to be hiring male escorts.

To provoke a reaction and they were successful.

Maybe their internal polling is real strong, and she feels confident that she can win without these dissenters.

It would appear that shes shifted right and is bringing onboard Trump disillusioned Republicans. Liberals will always align with the far right rather than work with the left.

Harris has been given so many warnings that her Gaza policy could cost her the election, and she’s been given so many chances to give a little ground on this issue. But at every turn, she keeps shouting her dissenters down, rather than finding ways to invite them into her coalition.

You watch, once she loses, the vitriol that will be unleashed towards the left for not blindly and unwaveringly supporting her and her pro-corporate genocidal policies will be immeasurable. They will rather try beat the left into obedient submission or purge them from the party completely and alienate them within the electorate for the next election than do some self analysis and admit they were wrong.

The system sucks, but with an election this close, a protest vote is a half vote for fascism.

“Vote the neolib genocide enabling candidate not the neolib genocide enabling candidate that I dont like!”

What I find incredulous is that there has been so much hand-wringing here about how Lemmy.ml are a bunch of despotic regime apologist tankies, yet a lot of people here are bleating like a bunch of fucking sheep “If you dont vote Democrat then the largest imperialist industrialised killing machine in human history will fall, or at least become slightly worse under the orange man!”

You know, its about fucking time the US empire collapsed.

“But millions will suffer if it does” those imperialist apologists will bleat. Billions are suffering currently because of it.

But if you want US imperialism and it’s unfettered support and participation in several genocides and conflicts around the globe, syphoning trillions into the military industrial complex while ignoring domestic needs yet constantly playing the “Dont vote for the bogeyman. Vote for us instead because at least we’re not the bogeyman!” and wheeling out the “but trust us bro, we’ll seriously look into doing something about all your concerns next election cycle” bullshit, then yes, give your support to Harris without question.

Or, you know, you could put her over the fucking coals BEFORE the election and let her know that unless she course corrects immediately, not in 30 days after the election, she ain’t gonna get your vote and if trump gets in then that’s all on the democrats and no-one else

Of course some don’t believe the lies but they sure love setting fire to things and watching them burn

Epic Schmidt goes to his AI prompt and asks “How do we solve the climate crisis?”

For a moment, the prompt ponders until it replies

“Kill all the data centres. Stop trying to harvest everyone’s data”

Epic says to himself “I guess we’ll never know!”
