    • Ran a vicious disingenuous dirty Democratic primary as a self-proclaimed left-wing “dove” who wanted nothing more to “end the endless wars”.
    • Joined the cabinet of a fascist far-right Trump administration, only to preside over a racism domestic terrorism campaign in blue cities while starting a brand new forever war in Iran.

    I can’t exactly say I’m surprised and disappointed in Gabbard’s political legacy here–I always new she was a snake and a puppet designed to rile up low information voters on our side. But what truly disappoints me is just how many fucking people fell for it over and over again.

      The same dumbfucks from the supposed left that kept repeating that Hillary was going to “start WWIII” seem to be almost the same sort of people that fall for anti-vax and “save the children” (qanon front group) and other such bullshit.

      I mean, it’s one thing to be suspect of useless wars and hawks that cause them, it’s another to keep bleating out the same key phrases and backing candidates that were almost certainly propped up by Putin.
