linked article is what has convinced me he’s got it in the bag. the wapo/nyt libs are exactly as insufferable as they were in 2016 and the results will the identical. he’ll win for all the same reasons he did the first time and libs, having learned absolutely nothing, will make all the same complaints and tear their hair out trying to figure out what happened. watching the most performatively irritating people on earth eat crow is going to be absolutely

and i don’t even have to feel bad about laughing because kamala’s policies are literally identical to trumps, so its not even like theres gonna be additional palestinians/trans people/women who are suffering because of it

I will spare you the suspense: I am endorsing Kamala Harris for president, because I like elections and want to keep having them.

And I happen to care about the people who are already here, in this world.

Well, some of those people a lot more than others

Reminder: she’s talking about the candidate who practically skipped the primary process and was coronated by the party

But why does she want to keep having elections, if policy is unbendable?

It’s wild how often liberals will say they “support” something while actively working against it. Support/care in their mind just means they feel sad about it I guess

Just remember Hexbear is always wrong. The more we call it, the less certain I become

I think all of us were assuming that Biden would lose in 2020. I know I was.

I think it was split. Lots of people here argued that we should vote for him for the sake of “harm reduction”.
The main argument was covid, abortion, queer rights, the massive riots going on with people being disappeared in black vans and foreign policy. Lol. Lmao even.
(There was also pushback on this, but I am just trying to say that hexbear was not united on the election)

Technically the site was still chapo.chat back then and I hadn’t even joined yet (I was still enough of a lib to vote for Biden, that’s completely over) so I don’t know how well Hexbear can call it

The case for Donald Trump is “I erroneously think the economy used to be better?"

But @FunkyStuff@hexbear.net if you would just look at my handy graph here you will see that (excluding groceries, utilities and housing) prices are actually going down (by which I mean they are increasing slower) and (excluding a few select sectors) wages are going up! (Almost putting them at the level they were at several years ago, calculated for inflation) Also the stock market is doing great! (Excluding the billions lost on cryptocurrency and the billions that will be lost on AI and the billion-dollarvaluation of Intel and the fact we’re growing by less than we’re spending)

Ever since someone framed the market as just a measurement of rich people’s feelings, it’s made a lot more sense

It won’t be funny, “HaHa”, it will be funny, .

We will instantly see all the libs who were SCREAMING about kids in cages at the border during COVID’s early years suddenly start SCREAMING about the genocide of the Palestinians.

Libs who were SCREAMING about the end of the occupation of Afghanistan will suddenly start SCREAMING about how the war in Ukraine needs to end.

Libs who were SCREAMING about “Medicare for All”, who stopped talking about it because it would ‘scare the conservative liberal voters away’, will suddenly start howling about it again.

Suddenly, all the anti-Iran sabre rattling will be “uncool” again.

I think it’s 50/50 wether they suddenly grow a conscience or start chanting for the murder of leftists for the crime of not voting for someone they’ve been told does not need their vote nor wants it

Nah, the left won’t get blamed because doing so would give us a ton of power. If Kamala loses they will blame anyone except leftists and everything except Gaza.

Yes. But their plan to end it will be to deploy the US Army and start a no-fly-zone over Eastern Ukraine, ratcheting up tensions and escalating the conflict.

if I were the paper, I would be a little embarrassed that it has fallen to me, the humor columnist, to make our presidential endorsement.

I didnt realise it was supposed to be funny until they pointed our how fun they are, wow
