Seems like there’s work around for Roblox on Arch but it uses closed source tech. Still maybe an improvement over Windows if you haven’t given it a try.

No you’re not getting what I am saying at all because you are knee jerk defending identity politic bullshit.

What were the two biggest issues for people going into the election? The economy (stagnate wages, inflation, cost of school, medical, housing etc it’s all wrapped up an affordability crisis) and the genocide in Gaza.

Which do you think was the bigger issue?

Wrong it was Gaza. The biggest reason for people not voting was the refusal to stop backing the genocide. The economy was actually second.

There’s only more polls that support this out there since.

Now to clarify my point on change. This was the primary difference in the rhetoric of the two campaigns. Both campaigns were pro genocide, pro deportation, pro cracking down on immigration, and pro corporate deregulation (biggest example coming to mind here is the unnecessary flip flopping on fracking). Not to mention anti trans (lest we forget Kamala wanted to “follow the law” in a year where over 200 anti trans laws were passed around the country many in effect today).

Kamala Harris offered Biden 2.0 as her platform. She said there would be no sunlight between her and Biden and that we should expect more of the same. She offered no change that people were desperately crying out for. Housing credits for first time home buyers? Like cool but what problem does that structurally solve? None.

Trump on the other hand ran on a platform of changing the country and restoring economic prosperity and man he was a liar but at least he cared enough to tell people what they wanted to hear. I don’t agree with Trump at all but surely you can see how this dynamic played into how people voted.

You can scream identity politics til you’re blue in the face but the numbers simply do not support you. The people who did not vote for her due to her race or gender were a drop in the bucket compared to those she lost by refusing to move to the left on a single issue or condemn the live streamed murder of children (which remember she ran cover for with Biden for 2 years unapologetically).

Go look at the polling for why people voted the way they did.

People voted for change. Trump offered it with lies. Kamala did nothing. It’s really that cut and dry .

Between genocide and a refusal to speak to economic needs she lost. End of story.

Sure there are people who didnt vote for her because her intersectionality of a black Indian woman but that isn’t what lost her election no matter how hard to try to spin your cope.

Are we really doing Blue Anon shit still?

I mean there is valid points here the Biden admin failed to take credit for their own wins.

But also like they did historic (up til Trump ofc) expansions in ICE, were deregulating industry, refused to make his campaign policies materialize like single payer healthcare, and ran cover for genocide for 2 years

To call messaging the biggest shortcoming I think is doing a lot of heavy lifting to talk past a lot of the generally abhorrent things.

Personally I find maintaining and funding genocide to be a much more substantial shortcoming than messaging largely because the whole world saw the admin lying to us for 2 whole years without even batting an eye and it was one of the most substantive reasons Trump is now in power.

I was taking you slightly seriously until you called China totalitarian which is so probably false as to draw into question every other point of analysis you have here.

Apologies for the friendly fire then comrade

I disagree. Now more than ever ideological change in this country is a necessity. How do you suggest we get out of this without fundamentally changing the character of the politics in this country?

Well it kinds does. Critique from the right will never lead to the reforms we need it will just be minorly improved shitty options because they will never substantially threaten the powers of capital that control our government.

I need you to really reckon with the fact that Dems were doing and supporting all these things too.

The genocide started under and was defended by the Dems.

Venezuela has been a bipartisan target for multiple decades at this point.

The siphoning of money away from the working class is also bipartisan. Both parties are captured by corporate interests with little interest in pushing back except for a small contingent of people in power on the left.

Dems have been fighting unions just as hard as Republicans. Remember when Biden used his power to break the Railway worker strike?

Media has been consolidating under both parties… The consolidation we are seeing today is largely driven by the need to have media cover for Israel which is bipartisan in its support.

ICE got a massive budget increase under Biden. He deported a fuck load of people too in largely just as violent ways, though ofc Trump expanded ICE to unprecedented levels the fact that it already has so much funding speaks to deportation as a bipartisan strat. Remember Obungler deported more people in his first term than Trump did. Dems love deporting immigrants.

Abortion literally was lost under Dem leadership when they had power to push to codify it as law.

White collar criminals have been getting away with everything regardless of who is in charge. Who do you think is running the corporations bribing our electeds?

US aid abroad there were some good things but often it was used as a cudgel for resource extraction and political suppression. There will be short term suffering which makes me mad but long term the boot of American empire being removed is objectively a good thing for the rest of the world. China is offering more favorable outcomes and all we’d need to do to compete is to stop being evil with our deals.

People have been living in poverty conditions all around the country for decades under both parties and neither has any appetite for the necessary economic and infrastructure reforms to fix it. The 13th amendment explicitly allows slave labor for prisoners so this is just how our country works tbh. Shipping to El Salvador is a new one but we are not averse to slave labor in the US as you seem to suggest

Dems have been calling Antifa and other anticapitalist groups terrorists and all that forever. Its just more red scare propaganda which is again just America being us.

Dems also do not care about trans people. Kamala Harris literally ran on “following the law” in regards to them in a year when historic levels of anti trans laws were being passed.

Government was always full of pedos and was geared toward oligarchs. Look at all the people on the Epstein list as associates.

I am baffled by this comment…corpocrat?

Where do you get this idea that I am pro corpo or pro Dem?

This is such a funny moment of a liberal being unable to comprehend the political spectrum.

Lmao do you think I’m on the right?

What’s erroneous? Praytell explain to me how capitalism works or something. This should be good I’ll go get popcorn.

Trump is not an aberration to our system what are you on about? Trump is literally a natural byproduct of our political system.

You know how he could have been stopped? Meaningful progressive legislation decades ago to right some of the largest issues in our nation. How is this not obvious to you? Obama literally could have diverted course from this but the Dems have no political will to make things better. They don’t give a fuck about you or me they only care about their donors.

The Dems offer no meaningful push back to anything the Republicans do not because they are bad (they are tho) but because its not in the interests of those padding their wallets. They move in the direction they are paid to move in which is to say more to the right every election.

Kamala Harris ran on a more conservative platform than fucking George W Bush 20 years ago. Does that mean nothing to you?

Man you really are close. Unless you like the capitalist duopoly (which really they are two parties of capital so its hardly even a duopoly) then surely you must also understand from your vast studies that engaging with the lesser of two evils narrative is precisely how capital has been able to accrue more and more power over the systems that be. Every election cycle the Dems just move further right towards the Republicans and then y’all vote for them and wonder why shit sucks!

I dont subscribe to your defeatist attitude that allows you to justify inaction and shitty politics of individuality. Grow up and read some books.

Sounding kinda fascy here for being the defender of democracy lmaooooo classic liberals. My way or the high way no room for discussion that makes you feel rightfully stupid and misinformed.

Brother the libs are incensed in this thread. Its funny poking the hornets nest and seeing all the same talking points with zero self reflection. I respect you being in the trenches but its prob a waste of time

We got peasant brain mentality going terminal in this thread.

No factually the reason was because she wanted genocide and offered no meaningful economic reforms that are desperately needed. Try again.
