Edit: Probability has dropped to 89% now, if that makes you feel better.

Edit: Now it’s 93%.

Maybe this attitude is why Democrats lost.

Maybe the Democrats should have reached out to independent voters who were concerned about Gaza instead of accusing them all of being Russian agents.

Maybe you should really show the democrats how you feel, by voting nazi directly, that will REALLY show them all!

And now you're accusing independents of being Nazis. Like that's gonna help.

I mean, I understand. You're just following the example of your party leaders, like when Hillary accused Tulsi Gabbard of being a Russian agent. Like most people, you look to your political leaders to understand the political landscape, and your party really hasn't given you any other example.

One of the functions of political parties is to spread political literacy among the population, and the Democrats and the Republicans both feed you nonsense because they're never going to tell you "the truth is we serve the corporate class, lol".

It's not your fault that they're failing you. But they are failing you. And they're failing America.

I'm not accusing independents of being nazis.

But the idiots who stood divided and let Hitler take power?

Those morons mostly died in Russia, or the bombings.
