Removed Comment > There's several alternative parties actually
Show me the last time they mattered for mofe than weakening the votes for one party or another. You guys could have a serious group of other parties, but you're too dumb to realize th e system is rigged to have the two big ones, abd you'd have to change that system to change that status quo. The only time a party other than the big two will win, is when the billionaire class decides another party will join the fray, not when you guys, the people, decide it. You Americans seemingly just fail to realize this.
>"If its not served up to me on a silver platter, then it is useless!" I wonder why it is that way.
As I just said, show me the proof you're able to do this at this late stage in the process, because last time you all sounded like this, you got trump elected a second time like the dumb fucks you are.
> Prove it. Point me to one person who is an actual principled marxist-leninist who is arguing that people should vote for Trump.
I'm not gonna go digging around Lemmy for post from nearly 2 years ago, especially since my original comment has already been deleted by a moderator. If you were here, you saw it or you pretended you didn't. People here straight up argued that in a kamala vs trump decision, kamala was the wrong choice, and this was not a fringe opinion here.
> 1.That you dont notice at any other point in time says more about you than anyone else.2.The democrats themselves have no such qualms, gleefully attacking leftists at any possible point in time.
See, I don't care that the dems have been meany to you, I don't care that y'all say this at other points in time. I just care when y'all start sounding like this at the wrong moments in time, such as the time you guys elected trump a second time and all the rest of us around the world could do is watch in horror as we got plunged into another dark age... Which is EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED.
Tough shit that you don't like dems, right now, there's no other choice, unless you're telling me you're finally going to put up arms and resist the system rather than bend over and take in in the ass again.
> Do you really think that any government would waste resources creating a tiny bot farm for some niche webforum run by communists? Get your head out of your ass.
Umm hello? AI exists? It costs almost nothing to tell it to go to niche corners and push narratives? Any and all fears that were too far fetched to happen before, are a commoditized reality now. Get YOUR head out of your ass.
>On top of that the war with Iran would have happened under Kamala as well
It could have happened under every president before trump as well, trump simply was the one who caved, as EVERYONE who lived through the first term would expect him to. ANY "kamala would've been worse" arguments are just *removed* to me. There's no "would've"s, we got trump out of this bullshit and we're all eating shit because of it, and I'm sure we would not be eating this level of shit with anyone else.
Listen I don't know how else to get the point across, nobody remembers anyone going up against Hitler. They just remember Hitler and the people who put and kept him up there. The history books might mention Kamala, but her name is not going to be in everyone's mouths when studying world history a few years from now. I am an outsider, unable to do anything other than just watch, and it is unbelievably infuriating to see you all harboring any sort of argument that improves Trump's odds of getting away with all the shit he's doing. Make no mistake, that's EXACTLY what y'all are doing here. Silence me all you want, mods, but that's just the truth. We all have growing amounts of hate for your country, and this bullshit doesn't help. by JGrffn ( JGrffn@lemmy.ml ) reason: genocide denial

Removed Comment The US funded border patrol since 2003? Omg, I don't believe it. wtf is this post supposed to mean? Blame Democrats? This post is retarded. Just more rage bait. The shit that is going on now never existed before. I blame every American that voted for that orange shit or didn't vote at all because they think Democrats are just as bad. Everyone who doesn't fucking care about making things better or just too self centered to give a shit about the future. Everyone that gave up because fuck it. Just let it burn. This is fine.

Removed Comment I'll preface this by saying I'm not from the US, I don't live in the US, but I'm a neighbor to the US and have to deal with their bullshit just like everyone else.
As a left-leaning person seeing the right growing in power with every election (and every country), acknowledging that Democrats don't hold my or my community's best interests, but also acknowledging that they are closer or more adjacent to my views than Republicans and that we realistically are stuck in a 2 party system that forces us to choose a lesser evil, why shouldn't I vote for the democratic party?
During the last presidential elections, the great argument that voting for Kamala was voting for genocide and whatnot was made. Can those who argued this stand here today and claim that their decision, their arguments, their views, were the correct assessment of the situation? Are your consciences clear knowing the hell Trump has enabled on Gaza, Yemen, and Iran? Knowing how much he's empowered the billionaire class, the Zionists, the warmongers, the hateful, the corrupt?
There's no alternative party, no momentum for one, no alternative system and no desire for change from the ruling class, and you're stuck choosing between the literal worst group of people of our modern world, and people who aren't as bad but aren't great. Will you really argue, after primaries - and the chance to steer parties internally - are over, that both sides are the same and undeserving of your vote? Or that somehow voting for Trump's party is the better choice?
I'm asking not because I expect you specifically to take blame or anything like that, but because this was the rhetoric last time, straight up MLs arguing in favor of voting for Trump over Kamala in a very unexpected turn of events that I simply could not believe or accept as anything other than a psyop by non-MLs.
Now similar voices are speaking, reminding everyone that both parties are the same in the worst possible moments to point that out. Not during the primaries, when the parties can be stirred into a direction, not at the moment parties register or organize, to have a fighting chance with a new movement, and not at the legislative level fighting for a more fair voting system.... No... It's always at the last leg of the race, between the two big parties, in a rigged system, when not voting for the lesser evil exponentially empowers the vastly greater evil. by JGrffn ( JGrffn@lemmy.ml ) reason: genocide apologia

You are not owed a job if you complete it, this it entirely the wrong way to think about it. You should go to university if you want an education. You should work hard to gain the education you want while you're there.
It's not some race to finish, "I did it now give me my job". That mentality is EXACTLY why most recent grads are so worthless. They raced through, cheated, used ai, and got no actual education.
