Funny, I'm pretty sure they lose their shit whenever any of these words show up in a conversation: queer, cis, pronouns, they/them
(programming.dev)
funny part about "Kamala campaign can't target men" is that they can't target men because they refuse to employ the crass humor needed to effectively target the kind of men they currently fail to target. They know what they have to do, they simply aren't strong enough to do it.
They lost because they won't say slurs. People are not ready for this conversation.
Hadn't thought of this before, but it makes sense. Men just won't take you seriously if you're offended by or scared of words.
Straight from one of the shittier parts of the fediverse.
Kamala knew exactly what to say too but "Genocide Bad" was a bridge too far.
I think you'd be horrified by how little the typical American cares about Gaza, to be honest.
I'm not horrified, I'm exhausted of it. I'm 40, its been going on my entire life. I'm sorry but its not a hot button issue for me. Theres always a war somewhere, some tribal dispute, some ethnic cleansing... and nothing ever changes. Eventually someone wins and theres peace for a while, even if the cunts are in charge.
She also refused to say if she would keep Lina Khan and other things. There were a ton of stories about how she was talking to billionaires to get their donations too. Might not have been 'just' Gaza, but there was nothing there for the working class. She even managed to piss off the Teamsters.
Same issue. Basically no one knew who Lina Khan outside of lemmy or reddit.
She was the best FTC head in our nation's history, but got basically zero press out of niche online spaces. She was in no way a factor in swinging votes.
Working-class voters may not have known who Lina Khan was, but they definitely got the "vibes" that Trump was at least pretending to care about them in a way that Harris was absolutely not.

Aren't you so glad you now have Trump in place who essentially said he wants to actively help Israel complete their genocide?
I never understood how they constructed an anti-Kamala argument out of the fact that literally every US politician has an irrationally strong and simplistic anti-Palestine and pro-Israel stance for as long as Israel existed.
