Useless. Time for the Social Democrats to form their own party.

    Nobody who said “blue no matter who” in 2024 is allowed to say “what the actual fuck” at this.

      The alternative being…? What, third party candidates? Are you kidding? The only alternative to “blue no matter who” is more “red” and as you can see, there is literally zero support from “red” whereas there’s at least a substantial fraction from “blue.”

      I don’t think many people who said “blue no matter who” are actually very surprised by this, because the phrase is not coming from die hard supporters, it’s coming from anyone with basic logic skills.

      Disagree, that’s basically saying if you vote in your best interest you can’t complain.

      What the actual fuck

      Frankly, I agree. I just want health insurance, weed to be legal and I want for employers to be stripped of some of the freedoms they are abusing to destroy the economy and this country as a whole. I don’t give a fuck who they bomb in the middle east in exchange for it. I just want to be able to live my life. Too bad not enough people voted blue no matter who.

        …who they bomb in the Middle East in exchange…

        Or who they deport, or the misogyny, or the racism, or the abandonment of health and science and climate.

        Quite an American response.

        This is why America is going to get a totalitarian purge. It’s also why it probably deserves one, we’re just going to end up doing it reverse to bite it chuckling and moving on with their day like this asshole.
