Eh, plenty of younger people will say they want those things but then decide not to vote for the Democrat candidate who made it as the nominee because they didn’t pass some purity test. And that hands power to the fascists.
I voted for Biden. And Clinton. And Harris. In the general election, because not doing so was a vote for fascism. I also voted for different people in the primaries because that was my chance to vote for a progressive.
Imagine that before you stand two candidates. One of them supports genocide and corporations as people, but does occasionally manage to also support human rights. The other of them supports genocide and corporations as people, but also is working to break our democracy and replace it with fascism.
Those are your two options.
If you decide not to vote for the first one because they support genocide, then you are lending your support to fascism.
I would hope you would have supported a better candidate earlier in the process, but the point is that when faced with the final voting options, many people withdraw from voting because they don’t like the candidate that is of the party that they would support if they did like them.
And so the fascists win that voter’s voting power, essentially.
Worth noting that I’m not talking about earlier in the process because the above scenario is an extremely simplified version of what our options have mostly been.
To be clear, you’re trying to deflect blame away from people who show up to the Democratic primaries to vote for strike blocking, genocide supporting geriatrics yes?
Apparently you do. Reload this thread and see my answer to the other person who can’t manage to understand context.
Your comment was off the wall enough that I didn’t feel I needed to grace it with a clarifying reply, but since I did write one - intended really to help the both of you - I posted it in reply to them, but perhaps it will help you understand slightly better.
No you’re pretending not to understand the question because it’s calling out your behavior for what it is. Boomers caused this mess. Boomers continue to cause this mess. Stop making excuses for them. Stop trying to deflect blame elsewhere.

The purity test of… not doing a genocide??

Then the country deserves to be sanctioned out of existence and balkanized. Sorry about your shitty situation. Death to America.

Wut
I didn’t stutter. Do you lack basic reading comprehension?

Wow, so fucking smug, lol.
Try being better next time.
Lol. Try not being insufferable sometime.

Congrats on also completely missing what I said. Nicely done.
