        Everyone is going to have to compromise on this one. Stopping this is more important than any of our individual goals.

          Same shit in 2016

          Same shit in 2024

          Guilting people into voting for neoliberals is a losing strategy.

          You can’t be on the same loser shit as always.

          Neoliberalism is a failed ideology.

          That’s the compromise.

            Everyone put aside their differences in 2020 and we beat Trump. Say what you want about Biden, but he was better than Trump.

              That is absolutely not what happened in 2020.

              People were feeling the effects of 4 years of Republican leadership and voted out the incumbent.

              After 4 more years passed with no more money in their pockets they voted out the incumbent again.

                Look at the voter turnout. What you are saying is not what happened. Trump didn’t significantly lose votes in 2020, but the Democrats did. Then in 2024 democrat voting numbers went down again.

                    I absolutely agree. That doesn’t mean whoever is picked won’t have to compromise with Neoliberals and create a unified force against fascism. Remember even the US and USSR cooperated to defeat the Nazis.
