Boy you cannot let it go can you? Okay you’re right, gosh you are so right.

I have never and will never defend Christianity.

I agree. Christian evangelicals are extremists who want to control everything. They are shitty people. I have no problem saying that Your own personal stance against me is simply virtue signaling, but you do you. Your unwillingness to acknowledge that the Muslim world doesn’t care about you or anyone that disagrees with their doctrines is ignorant and cowardly. Religion is there to control all of us and that includes the Islamic world

Nope you’re right. The Muslim world just wants to get along with everyone else. Their prophet Mohammed Was a person of peace. He wasn’t warlord who married 6 yo girls . The all Muslim countries are safe for queer folk and women have the same rights as men. I’m so sorry everyone I’ve been wrong I am just an ignorant person and I’m very sorry. The Islamic world 1.8 billion strong doesn’t have any extremists in its fold and has never ever done anything violent ever. I can only pray to Allah that my comments, which are completely genuine and true, don’t get taken down again by the moderators

This is an intelligent and reasoned reply. I agree

So you think being called a bigot for criticizing religion isn’t an ad hominem attack? Okay It’s not a badly informed opinion, It’s one that doesn’t automatically align with most left wing talking points that are basically just about identity politics. I bring it up because it’s why Democrats continue to lose. Defenders of AOC sound like Swifties. I like Harris but she doesn’t have to be the only candidate and neither does AOC. I’ll state it in plain English and maybe you’ll understand? Islam is a religion, it’s not a race or ethnicity. When I criticize the rules of this religion, which is Sharia law, which contradicts democracy in this country and is unconstitutional it doesn’t make me a bigot. Everything that have stated here in this thread is part of the reason why Democrats keep losing. The majority of Americans are tired of extreme left wing politics and policies, and it’s why we keep getting extreme right wing politicians who win elections. You can tell me I’m uninformed all you want, call me a bigot, whatever… But come 2028 you’re gonna get president JD Vance and VP Elmo. If it comes down to it and AOC is chosen as the Democrat nominee, I will gladly vote for her, but she can’t win, she isn’t electable and it isn’t because of sexism

Yep, this is the kind of ad hominem attack I would expect. You think I support Hillary Clinton? What Do you think that Centrism is about exactly? Is your righteous anger going to change the world? You’re adorable

I think Kamala and Hillary are 2 very different people. Idk why everyone keeps comparing them..maybe because they’re sexist? Kamala is likable Hillary is disingenuous and not very personable

I’m old enough to remember Michael Dukakis..Tim Walz gives me Dukakis vibes

So tell me why? Explain it like I’m a 6 yo. What exactly is the appeal of AOC? Someone who once aligned herself with two antisemites? She’s not a Senator, she’s a representative for New York State. Does she have the same appeal as David Hogg? Strike me down and call me a conservatard (I’ve never ever voted Republican) but AOC is a gaffe machine, but somehow it’s on purpose? Can we talk about Ilhan Omar and Rashid Talib? How the fuck did they ever become Representatives for Minnesota and Detroit…yeah I know it’s been a minute, but this is the Democratic Party…how did Leftist get so confused that they felt the need to support right wing religious nuts? You know what I talking about right? You could take your average everyday Muslim and a white supremacist and ask them both how they feel about women/jewish people/gay people and you’d get the same answer. Did AOC support the striking train workers in 2022? The union for the rail workers never really got the deal they wanted. What does AOC stand for exactly? Just the typical Gen Z talking points? “We gotta support drag queens in libraries!” Yeah, I’m an old fuddy duddy who thinks that identity politics is a losing battle, maybe if everyone can get under the umbrella of the idea that billionaires are working to ruin this country? Maybe we can talk about wealth inequality and how no one who is working class can afford anything? Housing prices, rent, basic living income and basic standards for ALL human beings? I love Bernie Sanders, god bless him, but AOC and Bernie spreading whatever message they are is falling on deaf ears, the ears of middle America. I’ll take my beating now

Well, a populace candidate needs to be known and supported by its party members. It’s like promoting an artist on your music label for example. The label spends money on what it believes to be its best artist. But today most artists, musicians, celebrities, content creators, politicians are supported by and large by its followers and somewhat by the algorithm and by the platform. I mentioned Mark Kelly, he’s the best candidate in my opinion. Not flashy necessarily, but is smart and doesn’t say anything outrageous. How do we get the majority to support someone who is simply smart and doesn’t seem to be motivated by outside sources and polls? I don’t know the answer, but I think that we are two divided as a country and we seem to have lost our way and I mean that in the most genuine way. Whether or not drag queen’s should be reading to children in libraries or whether or not trans people can get pregnant or have periods isn’t the hill to die on. It’s obvious that the Democratic Party is better than the Republican Party, but the bar is so incredibly low. Does democracy even work if the populace at large doesn’t know what it even wants? I’m gonna come back around to the issue of wealth inequality. It’s something that every person should be able to agree on LGBTQ the black community theHispanic community, old, middle-aged, white guys lesbians, conservatives, and liberals.

So the Democrats are not interested in public opinion and is hellbent on always making every election about identity politics. I’m saying this as someone who has always (regrettably) voted democrat in every election since 1992. Inclusivity is important, but why is it always…always the only talking point coming from the left. The message that everyone should be able to get behind is the insane wealth disparity that exists, most especially in America. I remember when everyone on the left was sooo happy, so thrilled when Kirsten Sinema was elected as Senator for Arizona because she was bisexual, as if that’s somehow a qualification, and how she took a huge dump on working class Americans. Has anyone given thought to the Astronaut? You know, the guy whose wife was affected by political violence? The guy who seems reasonable and well spoken ? Middle America might actually vote for someone like Mark Kelly who flew combat missions during the gulf war. Why is the Democratic Party so obsessed with AOC? She’s not a bad person, the right obviously hates her, and that’s shitty, but it doesn’t mean she should automatically be the darling of the Democratic Party, the obsession confuses me honestly, her personality is a bit grating tbh. Democrats are hellbent on either choosing and ineffective milquetoast man or a disingenuous woman.
