    Which would you rather have?

    Would you like the Democrat to have won the election, or do you want to be “correct” in your approach to politics?

    You don’t get to have both.

    And to be clear: You aren’t actually arguing with me. Its the 6 million Democrats who showed up for Biden, but who failed to be convinced by this approach to rhetoric.

    So it all comes back to you. I made my case ad-naseum, begging Democrats to change their rhetoric, their approach to electoralism, because it was incredibly clear that the manner in which Democrats were campaigning and approaching the election would lose. People with a mental disorder interpret that argument as an attack on the Democratic candidate.

    It would be great if I was wrong; if it was fine for Harris to have run, effectively as a rightwing canddiate, and have won the election. But she didn’t win the election. I wasn’t wrong in my analysis, before, during, and after, that the manner in which Harris was campaigning (and Biden before her) was going to lose the election.

    If you take that as me making an argument against Harris, or for Trump, you should seek help with your mind.

    It all comes down to you and a choice you still have available to you: Are you willing to change your mind such that we can get Democrats to win elections, or, are you more heavily invested in a deluded approach to electoralism, where you get to claim a form of psychological correctness, but can’t win elections?

        if these are the things you think, you are broken.

        You are doing the job a of defeating the Democrats before there is even an election.

          i’m fine, but you don’t realize you enabled trump’s fascism and support fascism in the middle east

          you’re still trying to destroy the democrats due to your magical socialist ideology

          the democrats are alive and well and voters will flock to them now they realize you sold them fundamentalist lies that caused incredible damage to their country

            If you conducted yourself this way during the campaign, and I think we can only assume you did, you played directly into the Republicans strategy and cost the US it’s democracy.

                  are you sure you were fully supporting the democrats a year ago?

                  are you sure?

                  If you let a blue dog lead you off the cliff, it’s not the dogs fault: it’s yours

                  i can see why you’re attracted to socialism, it is just an artistic fantasy

                    I mean you just keep trying to project narratives onto what I’m actually saying instead of addressing what I’m actually saying.

                    If this is how you approach people trying to convince them to vote Democrat, not even having the comprehension to actually listen to them, then it should be obvious to you how you cost the Democrats this election.
