Good thing they protested Kamala’s event. Now that Trump is in office we don’t have to worry about inequality, wars, healthcare, wages/employee rights OR voting.

Both sides amiright?

Seattle's current city attorney is a trump backing Republican who was elected all because Seattle at the time was too scared of a candidate who once talked about abolishing the police

Election results say otherwise

But she lost because voters were convinced she ran on that leftists policy. Whether she actually did doesn’t change the intentions of the voters.

This is another good example of leftist policies causing an election loss. Even in a place as blue as Seattle.

Friday’s proposal to permanently ban hemp THC comes after years of complaints from California’s licensed marijuana industry, which has claimed that it faces unfair competition from unregulated hemp companies. Marijuana companies face sky-high regulatory costs, especially in California, and can only sell their products through state-licensed retailers. Hemp companies, on the other hand, face almost no regulations and have historically been able to sell their intoxicating drugs almost anywhere, including liquor stores, grocery stores and online.

This disparity between the two industries has created pressure on governors like Newsom to protect their state-regulated cannabis companies.

This decision makes sense to me.

It’s weird that every time someone goes against Trump there is an effort to manufacture consent to hate those people.

The majority of voters chose Trump. Unfortunately that’s how a democracy works.

That’s not how it works. Leftists won’t be “allowed” to take over the DNC. Voters will need to create the political will to run leftists. There hasn’t been enough demand for leftists candidates. There are enough examples of leftists wining primaries and losing elections to prove that.

Election results have proven that leftists aren’t the majority. Politicians are beholden to the voters not leftists.

If leftists don’t vote for the candidate furthest to the left because they “aren’t left enough”. Then the party will replace those votes by appealing to those to the right.

Because Russian bots try to dispute the fact that Snowden is a Russian asset.

It seems like every time someone goes after Trump there is a barrage of commenters online that all of a sudden have a lot of anger to express towards that person.

For example, Mueller, Garland, Cheney.

The timing an quantity of comments always makes it seem like brigading to manufacture consent to attack those people.

Votes are a metric to measure engagement. Which is valuable information

It definitely looks like that.

I see the same accounts posting and interacting with each other and reposting the same content with the same comments.

Pretty sus

The comments on here don’t reflect those differences.

It was a combination of foreign election influence, billionaire class and GOP propaganda. And in the end Trump won by 1.5%.

Democrats can only do what the voters allow them to do. All the groups I mention above are actively trying to stop them.

"Nooo we actually need Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi and all these useless benchwarmers to win."

No one is saying this. It’s more like “Voters have not been voting for progressives. If democrats primary more progressives, democrats will lose elections as much as progressives do. We can’t afford to do that against Trump.”

I see progressives on here everyday attacking democrats for fundraising.

Spreading FUD against Democrats helps Trump get reelected.

Why is it that both Trump and progressives on lemmy want the DNC to not have fundraising?
