  • Some people are gonna vote D/R no matter what, some will never vote D/R. The problem at hand is not those, is taking the people that could vote D ‘off their seats’ and go cast that vote. Biden’s not moving anyone, which could seriously result in losing the election, and I think Harris on top of not moving these could make the people that have a problem with her being a woman of color or a prosecutor go vote for Trump. The perceive problem is a real concern.



  • I only said that these reports is the only thing the imf does, like its only reason to exist, so it is literally its business. But also, and again economics is not my forte so feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, lower rates than inflation only means free money for the rich. And if I understand correctly is Biden the one wanting to lower taxes to the rich ($400k/year is NOT working class).

    Edit:

    eat the rich

    Unironically/literally this. Watching the recording of a fellow billionaire being roasted and devoured by a mob of poor folk would put a bit of fear in them.









  • I think what the other commenter meant was that for many people, like yourself, a D near the name is enough to vote for that person but the bar can be higher for other people. If the dems had put (might be time yet?) a not-absurdly-bad candidate, as they have now, they would’ve won easily. But seeing how it’s going you guys are gonna enjoy four years (hopefully only four) of Trump as president, and the rest of the world will have to put up with all his crap as well.









  • it sounds like you are informed

    I try to avoid the news as much as I can, for my mental health’s sake, but something permeates

    you should know that the current government is leading only through a coalition of different parties that are barely a majority

    That’s how it usually goes in Spain

    The opposition parties don’t mind DoS’ing Spain (just look at the expired Supreme Court that has still to be renewed) just to create unrest. The only opposition who tags along are those that don’t want to see society dragged along for political maneuvering.

    And somehow when the current opposition has been the ruling party they could do all kind of things, fascist things that fucked us all over but they were perfectly able to do as they pleased, but the “left” (this “Socialist” party is a monarchist party!) seems unable to even undo a little of the damage. You do sound well informed, so before you mention the work reform, which was surprisingly good, that I have the unshakable feeling was a mistake on their part. It was meant to NOT pass, but this one fash fucked up his vote and it went through. I don’t think the psoe (and maybe podemos, who knows) wanted that reform, they just thought it would be good pr.
