DNC Announces Plans to Learn Nothing from This
DNC Announces Plans to Learn Nothing from This
The leaders of the Democratic National Committee announced they plan to learn absolutely nothing from their embarrassing loss to President-elect Donald Trump.
You're viewing part of a thread.
The point is that the party proposing a change can scoop up votes of those wishing for change, which is most people.
Shouldn't we blame voters for not looking at what change is being proposed?
Oh wait, many of them were being told she's worse than Trump, going to start the next world war, jail white men, or other such nonsense on social media or podcasts.
There is enough blame to go around. However, voters as a bloc is a more nebulous concept than a voter or party.
People voting is an essential part of democracy. If people don't understand it, if they failed to understand what was at stake, or if they undertood it but still didn't vote against him then they're fucking morons.
We can talk about mistakes of DNC, Biden, Harris, Pelosi etc for all eternity but that doesn't change the fact that the American voters are morons.
If the American voter is a moron, as you proposed, then is the smarter party the one that treats them like a moron, yet gets elected. Or the party that says they are not, treats them like an educated adult but loses elections to someone like Trump. Multiple times. While calling those that vote for him garbage. Well, garbage fought back and kicked them out. Now Trump will kick them while they are down but blame immigrants and the deep state.
By that logic the scammers preying on the gullible are smarter than the people running homeless shelters and soup kitchen.
In a capitalism hellscaoe, you're not far off. However a soup kitchens purpose is to feed people. A scammers purpose is to scam.
A political partys purpose is to get their members elected and pass legislation together. An individual politician can have similar but different purposes, but the parties purpose is clear. In this case, unlike the soup kitchen, the Dems are failing in their purpose.
All of that's true, but not how the general voting population works. We have to live in the world that exists, not the one where everyone is paying as much attention as they should.
Alternatively, this should be massive fucking sign that the general voting populace is so desperate for any change that they'd go for horrible changes rather than perpetuating the status quo.
