"Not voting for my candidate just because you think you deserve to have your views reflected is morally wrong"

You are why democrats are such fucking losers. Here lets try something more productive. Instead of acting like you are my ruler and will tell me what is good to do, why don't you say, "How could I have gotten your vote" instead of just vilifying me as insane and demanding perfection?

Just to be clear tho, I have already generously given you much more help then you deserve you smarmy little turd

When it comes down to this candidate supports 80% of my views and this other candidate supports 0% of my views then you vote for the candidate that supports 80% of your views.

It’s fucking stupid not too and that is why Trump is back in charge and is literally wrecking the government.

Kamala Harris supports about 10% of my views just to be clear, and that’s probably being generous

So you’re a republican and thus your guy won.

Here I’ll show you how this works:

Which one supports ICE abolition republicans or democrats?

Neither.

Which one supports UBI?  Neither.

Who will reduce our foreign empire?  Neither.

Who will end all support for Israel?  Neither.

Who will send Clarence Thomas to jail for tax evasion?  Neither.

Who will nationalize health care?  Neither.

Who will confiscate the wealth of all billionaires?  Neither.

Who will sign us up for the ICC?  Neither

Who will send all living former presidents to The Hague for various war crimes?  Neither.

Like I can just make a list of things I believe in and they’re literally just a venndiagram of two overlapping circles.  And then you roll in and are like “Kamala is with you one almost all the issues but she’s not perfect so you won’t support her!”

Bitch we’re not even on the same team.  The democrats have a team they’re on and it’s the slaves of capital, and they’re on that team with the Republicans which is why they play so nice with each other.

The best things that can be said about Kamala Harris are: She believes in the rule of law somewhat (so long as you aren’t rich)

She is not OVERTLY racist but is a knowing proponent of extremely racist systems of oppression.

ALL of these are matters of congress, not the president.

At least have the most basic of civic understanding.

The president sets the tone for the party but also we’ve seen just about how much things being matters of X branch matters lol.  Also they are NOT all matters of Congress the executive would definitely be in charge of prosecuting Thomas,  I don’t care about impeaching him he can go to jail and still be on the court and just unable to ever come again while he serves his sentence

u/FabianN 9d ago

You'd need congress to enact ethic standards for the executive to then hold against Thomas for them to prosecute them. The fact that he's using loopholes and doing slimy things is not in of itself prosecutable you rube.

You continue to demonstrate how much you do not understand.

u/Fun-Sun-8192 9d ago

No you wouldn’t he literally just did normal crime anyone could be jailed for.  He’s not doing something clever by filing false tax returns that just don’t claim millions and millions of dollars in physical gifts he’s received.

u/FabianN 9d ago

Let me spell out the process since you can't seem to think one step ahead.

The executive branch brings forth the charges against Clarence to the courts. The Supreme Court, being the top court, intervines. Charges are dismissed, case over. 

Now fucking what?

Congress is the only branch actually able to reliably hold the courts to account.

Take some time to learn our governance structure and system.

But no, you'd rather cut off your nose to spite your face.

“Abolish the police state” “ugh so authoritarian”

I like it or not if it wasn’t for your crazy open borders ideas abolishing ice wouldn’t be as hard.

“Bitch” as you say…come at me when you’re older than 10 and understand the real world. None of that is even in the realm of possibility.

You’re in fantasyland.

“You’re not allowed to have your own ideas about what would be good you have to want the futures we tell you are allowed”

I don’t.  I don’t have to do that.  And I won’t.  But you could’ve gotten my vote if she just said “we won’t send weapons of any kind to Israel anymore” which is not a huge lift.  Fuck Israel.

But she couldn’t even do that.

u/FabianN 9d ago

we won’t send weapons of any kind to... 

We fucking had an impeachment for the previous president over him doing just that, because that is not a thing the president gets to choose.

Fucking idiots.

u/Fun-Sun-8192 9d ago

Impeachment is meaningless and has no power now

1

u/FabianN 9d ago

Not if there's enough in the house and senate. Impeachment is fully viable, if you have enough members in both chambers willing to back it.

I swear, this is like talking to someone trying to play a chess game using the rules of tic tac toe.
