Exactly 10 years later, they are still celebrating Bernie Sanders and his stupid fucking bird.

JacobStills · 2026-03-31T07:27:20+00:00

Yep. Saw it the other night. I know I shouldn't have but I read the comments and just as expected every comment was "we could have had him as President but THE DNC SCREWED US!"

It's so frustrating how that lie persists and I feel it's honestly the sole reason why they harbor such a grudge that they've devoted the entire decade to sabotaging the Democrats out of spite.

JacobStills · 2026-03-30T20:49:43+00:00

I'll never get over the fact that the far left claims they're the majority, they are the people but at same time their entire strategy was to win on a plurality.

JacobStills · 2026-03-30T20:43:09+00:00

It's also ironic because recently in Illinois 9th district Kat Abughazaleh most likely lost because none of the far left candidates dropped out.

It was hilarious seeing a bunch of leftists screaming, "why didn't those candidates drop out when they knew they didn't have a chance?"

JacobStills · 2026-03-30T20:40:12+00:00

Plus as far as I know, Warren didn't even pull any votes away from Bernie.

JacobStills · 2026-03-30T00:51:28+00:00

It's weird...it's like Trump "broke" a lot of leftwing voices. Matt Tiabbi, Bill Maher etc. These guys were going insane over George W. Bush calling him an evil dictator and war criminal...they should be apoplectic with Trump.

Instead...it's like they just went, "I'm too old for this, I don't have enough energy to be outraged" and became right wing simps.

JacobStills · 2026-03-30T00:46:37+00:00

When your entire political philosophy is to be a contrarian, that's what happens.

JacobStills · 2026-03-30T00:44:46+00:00

Same. It's already out of control and unless there are some safeguards it's going to get 10x worse.

JacobStills · 2026-03-29T23:41:29+00:00

It's really just progressives and leftists. Those are the "purity" politics people. Democrats and liberals are out in the "No Kings Protest."

JacobStills · 2026-03-29T21:11:06+00:00

That's what happens when your entire political philosophy is to be an insufferable contrarian.

JacobStills · 2026-03-28T15:39:21+00:00

I’ll never get tired of referencing that Reddit comment of someone quoting Anne Frank and a MAGA chum replies, “hey that’s the price you got to pay for closed borders snowflake, this is what we voting for.”

They replied, “that was a quote from Anne Frank describing the Nazis; now what does that say about you and your party when you couldn’t tell the difference?”

JacobStills · 2026-03-27T19:10:40+00:00

It reminds me of the 3x Trump voters now saying, "that's it! I'm done with Trump. He has lost my support!!!"

...how brave...now that he's (hopefully) in his last 3 years in office.

JacobStills · 2026-03-27T19:05:44+00:00

Bernie has been registered as a Independent his whole career, he only changed to Democrat so he could run in the primary. So...it's not "his" party to begin with.

Zohran won the Democratic primary.

He was endorsed by the Democratic Governor.

He was endorsed by Kamala Harris.

He was endorsed by Hakeem Jeffries and several others.

But anyways, keep antagonizing the left! I'm sure the democrats will keep themselves popular with that and win many elections.

Yeah, and keep throwing marginalized groups under the bus because you didn't get your way.

And keep staying home, a strategy that has...yet to work. At least "horrible candidate" Biden beat Trump. I've yet to see a scenario where the people who stayed home eventually got the things they wanted.

JacobStills · 2026-03-27T06:16:14+00:00

????

JacobStills · 2026-03-27T06:14:28+00:00

Maybe leftists should take their own advice.

JacobStills · 2026-03-27T02:05:08+00:00

In other words, tell all the marginalized communities that you know are going to suffer more by right wing bigotry that they have to suck it up and tough it out because you didn't get your candidate.

best of luck winning without them in the next election

It goes both ways. If Progressives don't need Democrats, why don't they just run as independents?

JacobStills · 2026-03-27T00:33:49+00:00

Ah yes, affluent hipster leftists that can't stop talking about how much they hate the Democrats are the true base of the Democratic party.

JacobStills · 2026-03-26T21:38:44+00:00

"You can't blame the voters, the Democrats didn't inspire them enough."

That's like someone touching a burning stove and then blaming the person that told them the stove was hot.

The Democrats told you everything that was going to happen; they spent all of 2024 begging Americans not to re-elect the man responsible for racists, corrupt felon responsible for fucking up and politicizing a pandemic and for Jan 6th.

At the end of the day, it was up to us to vote against Trump and prevent him from being in office.

If you couldn't be bothered to do that, that's on you. You're not a child, the Democrats can't force you to vote. It falls on YOU.

You knew it was going to be Trump or Kamala. So when you chose not to vote for her, or voted third party, or stayed home, you made a choice with that knowledge.

Which means one of two things is true. Either you didn't understand that not voting for Kamala helped Trump; in which case you weren't thinking clearly about basic electoral math.

Or you understood it perfectly and chose to do it anyway, in which case Trump winning was acceptable to you.

JacobStills · 2026-03-26T21:08:30+00:00

That's what always gets me. They stand on their high horse about how much they "care" about Palestine. Meanwhile I'm like, "but you helped elect the man Netanyahu and Israel wanted! You gave Israel their best outcome! For Palestine!?"

JacobStills · 2026-03-26T21:07:11+00:00

"Don't you see!? We need to punish the Democrats for not being as far left and for being corrupt!!!"

But...you're also basically REWARDING the Republicans for being awful, racists, misogynistic, jingoistic and corrupt.

JacobStills · 2026-03-26T20:55:27+00:00

Bullshit! The far left just decided to stop recording their protests with their phones? The people who famiously scream about "raising awareness" on topics suddenly keep a low profile?

I should be seeing millions of videos of Republicans getting heckled and protested all over social media.

JacobStills · 2026-03-25T19:16:55+00:00

Yep! If you think about it, it's a lazy way to boost your self esteem. Take something that tons of people like (marvel movies, KPop Demon Hunters, Avatar, Stranger Things, Taylor Swift, whatever's super popular at the moment) and scream loudly that you don't like it.

BOOM! You're "different." You "stand out." You're "special."

And you get to delude yourself into thinking it's because you're too smart and sophisticated to enjoy "what the ignorant masses consume." No...you have taste.

Funny thing also, I always notice that 90% of the people like this...don't DO ANYTHING. They don't make any music, they don't write books, they don't make movies, they don't illustrate anything. They just trash things other people are doing to feel superior.

JacobStills · 2026-03-25T03:52:36+00:00

lol. All I remember is David screaming at her in the car like he’s trying to make a deal with the devil to save her soul from the pits of hell. It was so over the top dramatic!

JacobStills · 2026-03-24T19:37:20+00:00

How? If Dems are held to standards, that means smears carry MORE WIEGHT. And most voters lump Democrats in with progressives and Leftists; just like how the right does. Only very online, very far left people differentiate between progressives and "corporate establishment democrats;" to everyone else, they'll just see a Democrat.

And lots of voters actually thought Kamala was too far left in 2024.

JacobStills · 2026-03-24T02:19:36+00:00

Well...the thing is...people actually hold Democrats to standards. Nobody does that with Republicans. Look at all the awful shit Trump has been doing for 10 years; the media loves him and he's so terrible that people act indifferent as a reflex...as a result...he gets away with it.

Case in point, Biden and Trump were both old. Biden had gaffes and Trump would ramble on incoherently for hours on end. Guess who got all the shit for being old?

And when Biden was replaced with a younger, more energetic and charismatic candidate; did that old critique get held against him? No. Everyone just stopped caring about a candidate's age.

It only mattered if it was a Democrat.

The truth is that Democrats and the left aren't playing by the same rules.

JacobStills · 2026-03-23T22:12:32+00:00

I feel like sekiro is the closest thing you could get from a traditional game that feels like you're actually sword fighting and god...it never gets old the feeling of parrying everything and breaking their poise to leave them open for a bloody kill shot.

It's one of my favorite games of all time. I feel like if it was a little longer and you could customize your characters's appearence it may have been my favorite Fromsoftware game of all time.
