She needed no help, let’s be honest.
People like OP just want to take all criticism of her as a reason for her loss. Ironically, literally all major criticism of her was directed at trying to get her to change her position away from the the Biden admin because we didn’t want Trump to win. Biden was not popular and she basically ran on “I’m more of the same”.
They’re too stupid. They literally think that “change your position on X or you’re gonna lose” was a threat. No, it was advice to win. They didn’t listen.
She didn’t lose because leftist didn’t vote for her. We did. She lost because normies stayed home.
If that many leftist existed in this country. We’d have formed a vanguard by now. I wish I lived in this delusional world that OP lived in where leftist could sway the politics of this country in the way OP thinks we can.
Just an out of touch liberal stuck arguing with “leftist” on Twitter.
You contradict yourself. The issue you wanted kamala to shift on was a leftist issue, not a normie issue. Normie issues are housing and “the economy”. If shifting her position would have swung things her way it would have been with LEFTISTS.
Believe it or not, genocide isn’t very popular.
Got trump elected.
No… rigging the election and the DNC shooting itself in the thigh got him this term.
… sigh
The economy is something leftist criticized her on. Especially when she stopped talking about her most popular policy on grocery price controls. Instead she ran ads like this:
She told normies “Trump is right about the border. But vote for me”.
Youre demonstrating exactly what I am saying and regurgitating the exact talking points that leftists drug her down with.
Ok
you’re angry the left voted for this woman you wanted to be president?
how boldly deranged.
Oh they voted for her? Is that how the story goes?
After all the gnashing of teeth its cool because they supposedly voted for her.
I don’t know if it matters that you think it’s cool, but yes, many people on the left voted for Harris.
It’s weird you don’t know that, but I guess it explains your confused meme.
I wonder where those lefties where when she was getting raked everyday while Trump marched on to a W.
They were at her 8 weeks of stump speeches, and then they were at the polls, and then she lost.
Were you not paying any attention?
Obviously not, so:
a) The primary candidate of the Democratic Party stepped down a few months before the election, b) harris, without any sort of platform, ran in the United States, c) an institutionally racist and sexist country. Harris didn’t have much of a chance.
It’s wild you know so little about the election and are blaming her supporters for her loss.
Its wild how you are trying to rewrite everything that happened right here on lemmy and every other corner of the internet

Gestures Broadly at Everything
Edit: if you really dont know let me bring you up to speed
I’m an anarchist. I voted for her. You’re nursing a toxic resentment narrative. I don’t blame you, this shit is stressful.
There is one thing we are suppose to do at election time. Thats support the post primary candidate. Yes, I resent anyone who threw down post nomination.
Right, and that’s toxic. I can only think of one popular ideological tendency founded on resentment. You’ve gotta be able to move forward and bring people in, not stay stuck in 2024 scolding people you couldn’t convince.
No. No its not toxic. To say youre acting in good faith, after nomination, the party candidate has to have your full support otherwise there is no such thing as progress. This is the bedrock of progressivism. Not a single progressive I’ve met in last 2 years understands this.
Before nomination. Eat the rich.
Is this some kind of centrist “meme”??
Nah. Centrists didn’t like her either
Bernie 😭😭😭
I primaried with Bernie, what about it?
Lefties also fucked over Bernie. Who
wasis quite a bit better than Kamala.still is.
100%
Not american, but come on. Americans preferred a incoherent, rambling, (highly probable) rapist, felon, coup-inciting, and obvious authoritarian fascist over her. The US was already lost.
If I was an American I would’ve voted for her, even as a leftist, even if the democrats also support genocide.
I’d say Liberals and not leftists but YMMV. “They” also did it to Bernie first. We’d be in a much better place right now if that never happened.
Sabotage is pointing to shit everyone can already see, apparently
Everyone saw how trump was openly hostile to every Americans way of life. Didn’t feel obligated to point in that direction?
Obligated? No. Did we do it anyway? Sure. Did it make people feel any better about Kamala? Apparently not.
You ever think, youre not so tacit disapproval of kamala might have had some effect there?
So she lost because she was shit, and not enough people pretended otherwise?
And that’s… sabotage?
Id pray no one ever measures you to the same level of scrutiny
I didn’t. I learned my lesson after Clinton and I didn’t actually hate Harris anyway. Nobody I know bailed on her either. I think she just failed to capture the middle, mostly.
There was a concerted effort by leftists all over to discredit this woman. Ask yourself.
Why does prolific poster return2ozma have zero posts older than 1 year on c/political memes?
Leftists were being used and it worked.
What?
What?
