I'm sorry but this is an old tactic in my country. 2 major parties always fighting for power, and the one always ask to vote them because the other party will destroy the country.

And the blame goes to the no voters or the ice-cream voters or the voters that turn their back, not to the party itself or to their voters that did shit when they were in power for many years. Maybe its time to pay attention to what caused the problem and not to the result.

As for the USA, Trump is the outcome of the Democrats acting as Republicans for decades.

Edit: Last sentence is a bit oversimplification of the story, but Democrats had abandoned the working class and the low income people. They acted like moderate Republicans, especially in the economy.

Do you think people who are too stupid to vote for their own and their fellow citizens’ best interests are going to understand it in analogy form? Just try a straight forward “Hey, when you use a stapler on your own forehead, it actually hurts you, believe it or not, you fucking moron.”

These kind of idiotic, condescending analogies are all that libs have to offer. That's literally why they lose.

Keep upvoting tho. Feel good about yourselves. That's the real win. \s

(edit: Bonus points for this devolving into carnist attacks on veganism.)

Another day of pretending that voters gaza concerns wouldn't be the easiest thing in the world to adress. But no not even a speaking spot at the democratic conversation. But please growel more, surely you are bound to be treated with the respect in the future.
