    If that’s how they place the blame, then that’d be cool.

    But other than that, in reality, it likely seems to become a blame game, where they don’t want to look at why they lost the trust of the folk who they are blaming.

    Though, I’m just seeing online interactions. Maybe offline interactions are much more decent and useful.

    Not a USAmerican, but by that logic:
    Are Kamala, her party and her supporters who couldn’t get those people to vote for Kamala also responsible for the increased suffering?

    Are they responsible for the people not being convinced that the suffering would be lesser under Kamala?

    Did Kamala and party show significant effort and good faith to woo those people?
    Or was it the 99% Hitler vs 100% Hitler thing? Asking since most online discourse I saw on it here in lemmy was like that, where they’re saying Trump would be worse, instead of saying that Kamala would be better, de-escalate stuff etc.




  • Yep. It says that the mainstream left n right in the US is pro-ruling class, with only minor differences and they get entangled around only entry-level topics without going after the materials reasons for issues n solving them.

    I think they mean the democrats, with the term to mean the US mainstream ‘left’. The video criticises both the Left and Right under that definition.


  • Aah. Thank you.
    Would the govt be able to create any laws to counter the case being overturned?

    And unrelated:
    Could the Green party and Democrats form a coalition and choose the President accordingly, if the results are bad?
    I’m an Indian, where we have parliamentary democracy.
    Parties can form coalitions and the leader set by the coalition becomes the Prime minister and the President is not as powerful, eventhough they’re technically the head of the nation.

    Is it different in USA? If Trumps gains most votes, can the Greens and Democrats channel votes against him by creating a coalition?


  • Look, if you don’t care about LGBT folks, women who need abortions, asylum seekers, etc. you can pull that “don’t care” lever

    Not a person living in USA, wouldn’t a coalition govt be better then, as the Roe vs Wade issue happened while the Democrats were in power?
    Or are coalitions not allowed?
    Or is the central govt powerless in such issues?


  • Didn’t Castro lead the group that freed their country from the dictator Batista?
    They have a very high literacy rate now. Their life expectancy is quite decent in their region.
    And they have good healthcare.

    All this in about 60 or so years, while being under sanctions and other crisis.

    Aah yes - Look, those authoritarian socialists are fighting monarchist/imperialist/colonial forces for the freedom of their land, redistributing land to the poor and giving voting rights to women etc. Let’s coup them and install druglords or despots there.?

    Are you on the other side trying to sell us on Freedom and Democracy™(oil lover edition)?

    They did a stupid ass job them

    They probably didn’t expect their president to be idiotic enough to be against vaccines and recommend stuff like bleach.

    They’re a developed nation and could’ve had better control.
    They were able to hinder Chinese trade a bit.

    And didn’t they try and fail to kill Castro in many stupid ass ways?

    I think them doing it is more likely than China doing it to their own, considering the trade issues that the virus caused for China at the time.

    And again, they were the first to use nuclear weapons on civillians. Did it twice even.
    I don’t think they’d have an qualms about using biological weapons, if they thought that it’d give them an edge.

    They also can float the ‘China virus’ conspiracy to confuse the public and make them anti-China too.

    My personal conspiracy theory is that the Chinese government did engineer (or at least selectively cultivate) COVID

    The theory I’d believe more is that the U S of A govt or one of its agencies engineered and released it in China.

    China and India are growing economies, with decent populations and a pandemic would seriously delay their growth and help the U S of A keep it’s top place for a bit longer or destroy its competitors.

    I’ve heard the theory being given decent thought by non-western people. And it’s equally, if not, more believable than the other one.

    The US is the only country that has ever used nuclear weapons on civillians, so them using biological weapons on civillians would not be a big moral barrier for them or a big stretch to think about.

    They probably didn’t think it’d spread this much and their own citizens n even president would be idiotic enough to be against vaccines and masks, when people were dying.
