"why won't they vote for us? we keep insulting them, acting against their best interests, and most importantly we aren't republicans."

[-] radio_free_asgarthr@hexbear.net 65 points 8 months ago

This "Lesser Evilsm^tm^" has always been the main Democrat appeal. But it has been amazing once Trump became the Republican nominee in 2016, how thoroughly the Democrats embrace the belief "we are the party without Trump, how dare you ask for, or have any standards, other than that"

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 25 points 8 months ago

Yeah, it used to be the main appeal, then it was the only appeal. Now its just brump all the way down

"Vote if you want your rights!"

Okay, I'm voting for the American Commonwealth Liberation Party.

"NOOO! That's a vote for Trump!"

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 13 points 8 months ago

Right up there with "vote for your preferred candidate in the primaries but if they don't win you have to support rhe dem candidate"

cancels the primaries AGAIN

[-] zifnab25@hexbear.net 8 points 8 months ago

Listen, Shadow Inc said I need to support Pete Buttigieg so why are you yelling at me for writing in Mayo Rat?

I thought you didn't want Trump to win.

"I can't believe our strategy of repeatedly and explicitly saying we don't care about their concerns and won't modify our platform because of them isn't working"

28% of Gen Z adults identify as LGBTQ

Over 70% of that 28% say they've faced homophobic discrimination or hostility

4% of boomers and 4% of silent generation identify as LGBTQ

Liberals: "why won't the gayest generation vote for my flavor of geriatric homophobes?"

[-] Raebxeh@hexbear.net 54 points 8 months ago

LGBTQIA+ is the hottest new brand

LGBTQIA+ is a key voting demographic

LGBTQIA+ is an important ad target

LGBTQIA+ is made up of atomized individuals

[-] mar_k@hexbear.net 49 points 8 months ago

Holy shit I thought you were cherry picking lmfao

[-] sharkfucker420@hexbear.net 43 points 8 months ago

[-] IceWallowCum@hexbear.net 16 points 8 months ago

Yeah, no way YallaHammer's wasn't written by a shitty gpt

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 38 points 8 months ago

prove it in November

Prove that they're queer?

[-] GarfGirl@hexbear.net 34 points 8 months ago

"If you ain't voting for Biden then you ain't queer!"

Putting my vibe in with Biden

[-] D61@hexbear.net 6 points 8 months ago

Welcome to Biden's Bi-Den where all the bi-kin hang with their bi-friends.

[-] SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net 24 points 8 months ago

Wow. It actually got worse since my post. That's incredible.

[-] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 44 points 8 months ago

Definitely the type to brag about the black vote while making sure they never drive towards black-majority areas.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 10 points 8 months ago

"Idk this looks like a pretty rough area" immediatly after seeing a normal black person walking down the street

[-] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 43 points 8 months ago

Please make the pronouns one a site tagline

[-] TheSpectreOfGay@hexbear.net 51 points 8 months ago

The LGBT queue one too, I think the person who wrote that thought Hillary saying "Pokemon Go to the polls!" was endearing

[-] Findom_DeLuise@hexbear.net 29 points 8 months ago

If "Pokemon Go to the gulag" isn't a site tagline already, it really should be.

[-] Blep@hexbear.net 17 points 8 months ago

The original quote is already a tagline

[-] Hatandwatch@hexbear.net 20 points 8 months ago

Voter? I hardly know her!

[-] kristina@hexbear.net 29 points 8 months ago

Nah it's transphobic, bad vibes

[-] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 43 points 8 months ago

I hate woke homophobia so much.

Ok, we did vote, and guess what? Our right to living ain't exactly popular so we lost. Now what, smart guys?

you guys need, you--you... please, you all need to, to, everyone pokey mon... pokeymon queue for the polls

[-] BovineUniversity@hexbear.net 26 points 8 months ago

LGBTQueue for the polls is unironically very funny.

[-] artificialset@hexbear.net 21 points 8 months ago

yeah I'll start voting once the harm reduction candidate starts doing actual harm reduction

[-] riseuppikmin@hexbear.net 15 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

This is the most wild thing to me.

If Biden announced the most simple of measures like opening abortion clinics on federal grounds in hostile states (not saying this is the only thing, just the first thing that came to mind) I'd probably vote for him, but that requires him, you know, ACTUALLY FUCKING DOING THE HARM REDUCTION.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 19 points 8 months ago

"Young people today wanna complain about how tough they have it, give me a break. No, no I'm serious inhave zero sympathy." - president Biden

Also love this quote because it's the best example of snopes being totally full of shit. They rate the claim he said that as false. Their justification starts with the sentence "while it is true that Biden did say that...... that's not what he meant"

[-] SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net 13 points 8 months ago

Liberals trying to explain how everything is nuanced and complex: morshupls
