    Well, you had a shit ton of criticism for the Dems, but you seemed rather quiet about trump. Now you’re pushing cautious optimism? You really seem like a shill.

      You know why I don’t criticize Trump?

      Because he’s Trump.

      The enemy has no reason to listen to your criticism. They’re the enemy. That’s one of the reasons they are the enemy.

      I’m going to criticize the people on my side that do everything they can to lose, and criticize them when they try to appeal to the enemies base to win by moving closer to the enemies position.

      Nothing about this is hard to understand, and I think the only reason you pretend not to is to lessen legitimate criticism against the people on your side that did all of that and then still lost

      The people responsible for that loss? The campaign consults and contractors that drove the decisions that lead to this loss got most of the astoundingly large amounts of money the Harris campaign raised, and are trying to make sure they get more by getting hired again.

      These are the people you are protecting with your arguments. It’s not LGBTQ people. It’s not minorities.

      You’re protecting the people who got paid large amounts of money to do one job, win the election. And they don’t want to be blamed for the loss.

      And thus you go around calling other people shills, which is just ironic.

      I hate Trump and the GOP. F them. I’ve said it plenty of times. I’ve also said plenty of times I’m not a Democrat. I’m far left.

        Well, your criticism of the GOP wasn’t as much as the criticism of them dems. Or at least tor didn’t show up as often.

        Not only that but you pushed third party shit right up until the election.

        You gonna start up with that again?
