    People like OP are the reason you have Trump now. Sure democrats are not exactly great, but not no democrat so far worked on completely dismantling the democracy.

    Acting like both parties are the same only helps republicans and every single person who could have voted but did not vote for Harris is as much to blame for Trump as any MAGA cultist and deserves everything they get.

      Why did your party do this?

      The US democrats are a vicious, brutal, genocidal party.

        If not sooner or as soon as he distanced himself from Reverend Wright’s words, let alone with quitting his church over them to become more powerful, we should have known. And it’s easy to “sell our souls” by centimeters, of “not as bad,” and I’ve certainly been guilty. It creeps up on us.

        It’s hard to know exactly when that sudden, terrible decisive action needs be taken, but there is a point when not taking it is the worse crime against humanity. In thinking of the necessary terrible wars fought, I think of the Kali myth of going into battle to help her husband. She licked the blood from the ground not as an act of simple bloodlust, but because not doing that would mean a demon would have sprung from every drop spilled.

        What that looks like in a decisive war action is in need of serious and long discussion.

      Nah, people like you who were willing to defend any evil committed by the democrats, up to and including genocide, are the reason you have Trump now
