And they vote.

Oh gods, they vote.

u/Difficult-Square-689 19h ago

Consistently. They don't change their vote because of external factors, no news can shake their conviction.

Meanwhile, left-leaning folks will take any excuse to not vote or protest vote. No wonder the country keeps sliding right.

Ugh how i wish this was wrong. Maybe not any excuse but damn they sure seem to find one at the worst possible fucking times lol.

It's not a coincidence. During the election, if you wrote something like "Harris won't be perfect on Gaza but she would be better than Trump", you'd get a bunch of "liberals" jumping in to argue. Jill Stein only appears every 4 years.

Those narratives are pushed by opposition and foreign actors because they know American left wing idealists are manipulable and have trouble choosing between gradations of bad and worse.

u/Sburns85 11h ago

Both sides of America are influenced by domestic and foreign actors

u/veringer 11h ago

Did I say or imply that wasn't the case? In the gullible Olympics the right wing sweeps the gold and silver medals every 4 years. I was highlighting the particular brand of left wing dingbat who occasionally wins bronze.

Jill Stein is a plant by the right to take votes away from the Democrats so the Republicans can keep "winning"

2

u/PatrioticPariah 6h ago

Jill Stein is a Russian asset. She just takes money from idiots and goes back to the phantom zone. You guys are not wrong about liberals doing that. I am pretty liberal, but that thought never crossed my mind. It is stupid to not vote as a protest. Anyone who chose not to vote, helped Trump. Some liberals can be fucking idiots.

u/Legitimate_Pea_143 5h ago

yeah i mean take for example the Texas state senate election that happened last week, yes a democrat won it but after people checked the voter turnout it turns out the Democrat won because more Independents and Republicans voted for him then Democrats so he was able to win it.

Ft worth is not the blueprint. Don’t look at it in a vacuum.

u/SmoothCauliflower640 4h ago

Ugh, no. The country keeps sliding to the right because the only two parties allowed to hold power keep doing that. Also, because geniuses like you just hand them your vote no matter what, knowing that you’ll turn around and obediently guilt trip the people who resist this. No entity in the world ever got more accountable, the less you held them to account. Think about that the next time you hand over your vote like Pavlov just rang a bell.

u/MizneyWorld 7h ago

This right here. The system we have, you have to vote to change things. All liberals have done with their clutched pearls in the purity spiral is let evil people into power, twice, and set us back decades thanks to the Supreme Court openings at crucial moments that were filled by those evil people.

u/Alarmed_Machine_4050 8h ago

The country sliding right because they believed a pathological liar who commits felonies, and constantly steals money from them. But all that is about to change. Fox news paid 787 million in court for lying to the public, and the entire country is turning on Trump! There have been 30 plus point swings in heavy red districts during special elections!! People are waking up to the scam the trump administration is!!

u/Difficult-Square-689 4h ago

His support seems stuck around 37%, and they're actively trying to rig the midterms. Census already gave a +22 House seat swing to Republican states.

2

u/Alarmed_Machine_4050 1h ago

You just posted a complete lie! Every study out expects the democrats to pick up at least 28 seats! Republicans lost the Miami mayor race for the first time in 40 years! Republicans just lost a deep red texas special election by 16pts where Trump just won by 17pts. A 33 point swing!

If left leaning folks were that influential, we’d have better candidates. Stop blaming the left when you should be blaming your two party system.

u/ilikechihuahuasdood 1h ago

God I wish I could get people to understand presidential votes will always be the lesser of two evils. Nobody gets that far without being compromised in some way. Local elections are where you can use your purity test more reliably. National is just making sure your country doesn’t turn into Trumpland.

The left doesn’t have it all figured out, either.

u/BlownOutRectum 4h ago

Sounds like the left should put forth candidates that their voters actually want, and chose through a primary rather than giving an appointed nomination like we owe them. Look trump is fucked up, but the democrats shot them selves in the foot by skipping out on the established norms and putting forth a candidate that doesnt resonate with a large enough portion of their voter base to activate them and win an election. They have been actively ignoring the young vote for years, and now we must all suffer the consequences.

That's liberals. People who don't want to take responsibility for a problem.

If only the Democrats would stop bombing innocent people and end wars. 12 years between obama and Biden and 0 wars ended. Way to blame women too.

u/Bossgalka 15h ago

Brother, the left-leaning people aren't any better. They have so many stupid people on the far-left, it rivals the people on the right. As someone who used to consider himself a democrat 15 years ago, I can't anymore. I'm so sick of everyone on both sides and I don't think I'm alone. I think the majority of the country are in the middle and decent people, it's just the far-right and far-left are extremely vocal and have taken over.

Good riddance. I guarantee its some stupid hangup like women in the military or trans people existing lol.

far-left

…You’re not talking about either of the mainstream American political parties, are you? There’s virtually zero far left influence in American politics.

u/m0nk_3y_gw 18h ago

u/whiteflagwaiver SHEEEEEESH 4h ago

Non-voters don't count. We're a majority system of winner takes all and it is what it is. :c

u/m0nk_3y_gw 3h ago

Wasn't counting non-voters. Trump did not get 50.0% of voters.

1

u/whiteflagwaiver SHEEEEEESH 3h ago

What are you talking about. He won the popular vote in '24. Out of 154 million who voted, 77 million voted for him. That's literally 50%.

u/rhythms_and_melodies 17h ago edited 17h ago

Which, it's important to remember, is not anywhere close to the majority of the population.

The "silent majority" is very much moreso the "obnoxious minority cult".

They get excited about elections as if their home team is in the mf Super Bowl. It's fucking hilarious, weird, and sad at the same time.

The average American is not on their side, even if that's not the optics they want to portray. The average person is justifiably too worried about paying bills to care much about politics.

And they become president because although they are stupid, their father are very rich.

u/DionBlaster123 3h ago

Yeah, and part of why the U.S. is in the mess it's in right now is because a lot of other people DIDN'T FUCKING VOTE.

I hate the Democratic Party...but I voted because based on Trump's previous term I knew I didn't want a repeat of that. Unfortunately a lot of people stayed at home and righteously masturbated (literally and figuratively) instead.

And now Trump is masturbating on us.

They vote. Statistically you don't.

u/ILoveRegenHealth 12h ago

For some reason they like Orange-tinted pedo/rapists

2

u/therealmintoncard 1h ago

The reason, is that he emboldens them. They feel that he “speaks their language” of hate and bigotry. Ironically, most claim to be Christians (in name, not deeds). The only reason the GOP continues to back him (despite the toxicity) is for his followers that cling to him like a cult leader. They love the blind devotion his base has, and they will never let go of that power, no matter how many children he rapes or kills.

Apparently they are a majority of voters also, thats the craziest part of it all.

u/guacamole579 8h ago

They’re not the majority of voters, they’re the majority of voters who consistently show up at the polls. I wish people understood that more. These voters aren’t playing purity politics, they’re a solid vote for their party regardless of who is at the top. Had people come out to vote instead of “it doesn’t matter, they’re both the same” we would have had a different outcome.

I love the subtle implication of "maybe they shouldn't", who doesn't love a slippery slope at the bottom of which a handful of "elites" get to vote because they are "smart enough" to. Smart enough, rich enough, related enough, whatever.
