Hate it when liberals say stuff like this. You had a really unpopular, one term lame duck incumbent, who was so bad that he had to drop out in an unprecedented fashion, and his replacement basically ran a campaign that said “yeah we’re gonna do more of the same, maybe even copy our opponents”. The dems ran a bad campaign and lost. Stop blaming anyone other than the democrats

[@theotherohlourdespadua1131]

It's the aesthetic that they are after, not the meaning behind it. Take for example the Iron Cross which in its strictest definition is a Prussian and German military award given for bravery and acts of exceptional quality done by a German soldier, now it serves as a decoration for far-right folks. Or the Totenkopf (Death's Head) which is emblematic of the SS but it originally started as a symbol for the various German military units such as the Prussian Cavalry or the Brunswick infantry along with black uniforms...

Then all the fuel from the previous 11 to 16 flights will need to be used to refuel SpaceX again, just so it can go to Mars. There's still no explanation for how they'll have the fuel necessary to leave Mars with their giant rocket.

​@@Loveofwisdom321all the hatred and fear mongering about trans people has never been about protecting children. It has always been about cutting off access to life saving medical treatment for people of all ages who simply want to live a decent and authentic life. You never hear transphobes raising even a fraction of the hysterica for things like child marriage still being legal in most US states or very visible cases of cis, heterosexual grooming. If people really have suddenly become deeply invested in girls and women's sports, why do they never talk about the difference in funding and salary and things like how dangerous professional cheerleading has become without comparable increases in safety equipment? This demonization of gender transition and variation has always been about discomfort with people existing while "different". Hatemongers have weaponized confusion and discomfort into scapegoating a small and vulnerable population for the uncertainty people feel about the world changing. Your concern for children has been shaped by people who do not want trans people to be able to exist in public life, who do not believe that their own children could be trans. Trans people have always and will always continue to be born. If you really care about kids, think about the well-being of kids who grow up in a world that hates and fears them insists they can't pursue an honest and happy life all because of something as harmless as the name you call them.

people are hurting economically after inflation was high. Thankfully, inflation rates are down and staying down. However, wages have not increased.. While Democrats sucked campaigning and can't push a narrative to save their lives.. Lowering taxes, cracking down on price gouging/ predatory pricing practices from groceries to medicines (insulin, life sustaining meds), and expressing pro labor/union sentiments, etc. All sound, (and are currently), tremendously beneficial for everyday, working, Americans. Much more so than inflationary universal tariffs, revocations for affordable care, deporting millions of immigrants, regardless of potential economic impacts, not mentioning the insane costs and logistics for the proposed scale... I could go on but reality and policy doesn't matter much. When after the election, top Google queries included "what are tariffs?" And "Can I change my vote?". What's to remember years ago any way?.. People on affordable care, praise Trunp for stating he'll end obamacare. Immigrants will cheer on for deportations because they're the good immigrants even if undocumented, because they work and are not criminals...they believe If people really cared about uplifting/detrimental policies and their wallets/economic stability, I'd be inclined to believe they'd appreciate Harris's proposals instead of voting for tariffs without even knowing what a tariff is.
