How about this: you've been gaslighted to think that Democrats vs Republicans offers any real choice.

There has been 1 obvious difference: Dems wouldn't give up their COVID tyranny. Republicans by and large did. That's why I voted straight GOP and while disappointed GOP didn't get big gains, at least in my state we probably won't have mask/vaccine insanity.

It's their fucking full-time job.

oversimplified. Take PA as an example. Kathy Barnette would've done better with independents/libertarians. Instead, Trump backed that snake Oz and look what happened. Trump was the real third party candidate this year.

    yeah unfortunately they'd rather have lying hateful gaslighting dem assholes that will give them handouts, push for codified racial discrimination, erasure of biological women, heavy handed censorship, and the "rights" of noncitizens over everyone else.

      Absolutely none of that is discussed by Democrats

      Actually all of that has been discussed by democrats, repeatedly and openly. This is the kind of bad faith nonsense that makes people mad at you

      push for codified racial discrimination

      You would probably call this affirmative action, but it is in fact accurate to call it codified racial discrimination when you have race quotas

      erasure of biological women

      Yes, according to democrats trans women are real women, and there is no difference, so biological men can play womens sports, and women can have their penises out in women's spas in front of 6 year old girls, and medical science says men can give frontal birth that is not through the vagina. . Oh and also Ketanji our new supreme court justice, can't define what a woman is when asked, but insists she is one, and says its very important that we chose one for supreme court, whatever a woman might be

      heavy handed censorship

      Yes, its liberals doing censorship, and ironically its the conservatives championing free speech, rather than the ACLU, who back in the day once fought for the rights of the KKK to hold a march. Also California says you lose your medical license if you tell your patient about a peer reviewed study that contradicts CDC advice.

        You are totally deflecting again.

        These are not the main issues for Democrats, not by a long shot.

        They still said those things, which is the original claim you refuted. The original claim was not Democrats are less bad than Republicans, and I wasn't ever arguing this point

          Its absolutely a deflection dude. I fact checked you and you tried to make this into a referendum on something else

          Package made some very easily verifiable claims about items on the DNC platform he did not like, and you tried to say the Democrats never said those things. I pointed out to that these were factual claims, and you respond by holding a referendum over who is the bigger bad guy, which was in no way related to my comment, which was purely meant to fact check you

            Look at the topic! : "You’ve Been Gaslighted – Democrats Just Stole Another Election"

            I wasn't commenting on the post, I was fact-checking your bullshit claim, quit changing the subject

            Absolutely none of that is discussed by Democrats

            Verifiably false, rated 'pants on fire' by the Phooey meter

            Let's hope they manage to "steal" control of the house as well as the senate. Although GOP Gerrymandering has made this nearly impossible.

            If those GOP criminals take control of the house the Jan 6 commission will halt, and all those people who instigated the attempted coup will remain free, and be able to contest the next election.

              I honestly believe abortion really fucked the Republicans. A lot of republican politicians have paid for at least one or two abortions for their mistresses. Most Americans are pro choice to some extent.

              That and Trump has become republican kryptonite. Who thought it was a good idea up put up Dr Oz as a candidate? No surprise he couldn't beat a retard who lived in his parent's basement till his late 40s.

              DeSantis will win the next presidency if Trump doesn't fuck it up for him but he very well might. He certainly intends to.

              Wrong, most voters want stimulus checks and bailout money. Demarcates are well known for tax and spend policy's.

              Yupp looks like the low life dems got took for a ride on the whole tuition forgiveness thing. Biden promised debt forgiveness knowing it was not within his power and now has pretty much turned the page on it since he got the suckers to vote.

              The overturning of Roe vs Wade didn't help the GOP. The vicious cunts still gerrymandered themselves to a dishonest majority in the house. (probably).

              [–]Brewdabier 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

              Nothing new, politician say's what voters want to hear just to win the election. 50 plus years ago I remember hearing demarcates tax and spend, someone must pay for all them stimulus checks and bailouts.

              It's not like they will actually get anything done

              [–]Brewdabier 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

              No one Stole Another Election, people want free stimulus checks and bailouts and the demarcates give them what they want.

              [–]ActuallyNot 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

              To say nothing of accountability for staging a coup, investigation of espionage by a past president, frustration at the locking in of gerrymandering, concern for the rights of women and blacks, and fear of the US descending into a theocracy.

              Argumentum ad populum logical fallacy with no supporting argument.

              Democrats have long formed a machine of mass farming very young, very old, and the empathetic-naive to ever increase the vote turnout of low-info voters, which benefits them greatly, as they have nothing but messaging to go for them. When they are given full control, we get to see how unrealistic, damaging, and outright dangerous their pie-in-the-sky dreamer-bait messages are in practice.

              You were just supposed to say those things in your campaign to bait college aged fools, not really do them! You stand Bernie up as bait during the campaign, then you quickly lock him in the closet when the election starts....with his bait ideas.

              Make no mistake, there was a huge red wave. Even the winning Dems did so, just barely in most races, where they long enjoyed an easy win. Like here in Illinois, with the droves of low info Chicago voters, and their long running and massive property tax evaluation to DNC campaign donation kickback scheme. Illinois Governor Pringles just barely hung on against on of those 'dirty red hats' (actually, he's real great guy), and narrowly slid in by a few percent; they are not satisfied at all with the results.

              Democrat voters across the nation, despite all the efforts to bribe, misinform, and entice them with romanticized emotion-issues, have gave a huge and undeniable message of displeasure with Democrats, using their votes.

              The media has been flooding propaganda news every since, trying to flip the script. Count the artless you see pushing damage control topics:

              • GOP are disappointed in results
              • Dem's big gains (lol) make somebody worried
              • Dems hold the house (no they lost majority and lost the Senate)
              • Someone who backed a candidates is super disappointed/doesn't know what happened/is blaming somebody
              • Wow there was no big red wave
              • This Dem beat the odds and won/this GOP really shown and lost (ie cherry-picking)
