      Kamala’s problem was her gender. Americans are so misogynist that they elected Trump twice out of three times he ran.

        Kamala’s problem was her gender.

        Hillary Clinton, same gender as Kamala Harris, won the popular vote in 2016.

        Stop deflecting from the real reasons.

      I actually thought this was a general reference to the inherent stupidity of racism.

      I get your point, but still think this is more of a jab at super racist MAGA people.

            Holy whataboutism. Nothing absolves here of the shitty things she has done. The lesser evil ideology is why Trump is the current US president.

              If the goal was to keep Kamala out of the office, the goal was achieved. If the goal was to keep the shadiest asshole out, it failed in a manner that would be laughable if it wasn’t so horrible. If the goal was to not vote for shady people, well, how did that solve the problem of shady people in power? That isn’t whataboutism, it is merely pointing out facts.

        There’s another aspect to it. The message changes considerably depending on the audience.

        For bigger context Kamala just endorsed Jasmine Crockett over James Talarico for a Texas senate race, so we’re seeing a big racial push this week about how this whole choosing a white guy over a black woman is a you problem and nothing to do with policy or anything.

          That’ll be fucking interesting. Just hearing about the endorsement from you. My thinking is that anytime a candidate who failed as spectacularly as Harris did, when they endorse, that’s like, the mierdas touch, and anything the get near turns to shit.

          Surprisingly unsurprising that Harris would endorse the emptier of the two suits.

          I’m also glad this elect is happening quickly so we won’t have to wait long or speculate about the outcome.

      The twitter-exiled, well-to-do turbolibs who comprise the mainstay of BlueSky’s (non furry porn generating) user base.

      They don’t believe in anything other than identity politics, and being morally righteous, while accomplishing less than nothing.
