    The election was three months ago. These constant attempts to relitigate it are just an attempt by the right to divide the left.

    The truth is there is blame on both sides. Those who stayed home hold some responsibility, and the Biden admin is also to blame for shunning their own base.

    But now we have bigger fish to fry. There’s a constitutional crisis on, and a united front is needed against the right. Fuck the dividers. When someone tries to divide the left, call them out on it or downvote them to hell. They’re either a conservative or a Russian troll.

      The right didn’t need help to divide the left this election. The left did it itself. The American left splintered into toxic little sub groups who all hated each other, saw each other as unworthy allies and called each other fascists for being even slightly right or even left of each other. Meanwhile the right was unified and laughing at the left who so easily felll for the right’s manufactured war

        Yeah. There were a lot of people saying they wouldn’t vote for Biden or Harris due to one issue, even though Trump wouldn’t be an improvement on that one issue they wouldn’t vote for Biden on.

        Now they’re angry that Democrats have very little power to resist Trump.

          There were even more people blaming any criticism of the DNC as an act to support Trump, so go ahead and continue fracturing your support base even after losing the election. I’m sure that’ll help you fight against fascism.

      Second most of the responsibility, actually (actual Trump voters take the most responsibility). They screwed up, and now we’re all paying the price.

      But now we have bigger fish to fry. There’s a constitutional crisis on, and a united front is needed against the right.

      Also true. If Trump voters and non-voters realize that they screwed up badly and want to work to fix it, then we need to accept their apology, forgive them, and let them stand with the rest of civilized humanity in countering Trump, Must, and their goons.

        They will never realize this. They think game theory isn’t real and voting 3rd party means they’re better than Dems even though they enabled trump. It’s the worst virtue signaling possible. Gaza will pay the price for their hubris.

          Hey, what’s the most famous example of game theory, and what’s the correct move to play if your fellow prisoner is saying they’ll betray you? How would you rate the strategy of the player announcing they’ll betray?

          You trot out the term like you’ve unlocked some higher level enlightened objectivity that the unwashed (minority immigrant) masses have failed to comprehend, but then fail to actually apply even the most well known thought exercise. It’s not a synonym for rational thinking or having good foresight. It’s about how multiple actors make choices. For some reason your “game theory” philosophy seems to not consider the candidate as a participant.

      The left is divided already. In the ways these folks voluntarily decided to do. It’s not now that others are pointing it out that the divisions are occurring. How much more gentle do others need to be around the ones who made this mistake? How much more hand holding?

        The Left isn’t divided, it’s unrepresented.

        The Democrats are a conservative capitalist party, which might be better than a fascist party but it’s still right-wing.
