Liberals listen the fuck up. You cannot nominate this man. You will lose. If you choose to do this you are choosing to lose. You can't blame the voters you're choosing to lose.
This. Democrats with Newsom might win the election, but four years of Biden brought us Trump 2.0. Four years of Newsom will bring forth anti-Democrat sentiment so strong that it will sweep every demographic Dems have ever been branded as "pandering to".
Gavin Newsom is the kind of politician who spurs the political apathy and resentment that Trump and the Republican Party feed on. Gavin Newsom is the type of Democrat that brought us to the hell of 2025 and beyond.
Presume there will be a Democrat primary. Register for it. Participate in it. No votes for Gruesome Newsom.
At least the Nazi's say they hate you. This slimy fuck will do whatever his consultants say. The only good thing he's ever done was let his social media team be slightly angry with fascists... That shouldn't be the bar, it should be the floor.
We're already here and I'm gonna be real with you, I don't think newsom is going to dismantle facisism, just use it for his own gain. He's too much like trump.
These people have no legs to stand on. They say we are taking the moral high ground against what is for the greater good, but I think they need a good look in a mirror.
I already wasn't gonna vote for him cause of his stance on homelessness. Don't care if he gets the nomination. Never believed in the "blue no matter who" BS that just props up awful people on the vague notion of "lesser evilism".
A centrist cant win, especially in these times. Running a centrist is suicide. You all saw the dem voter base dissolving in the last election. Is that what you want again?
You're 100% right. Ignore the bots who want to sabotage Democrats. Yes Newsom isn't perfect but he's 100 times better than Trump. A Democrat like AOC would be maybe 500 times better than Trump. But no matter what after the primary is over I will do everything in my power to advocate for the Democrat presidential candidate and all Democrats on the ballot.
It's crazy to see how many people seem to still not grasp this.
Instead, they completely lie and say we actually want people like Newsom and aren't just willing to vote for him in the general to stop the literal fascism that has infected the country. After everything that's happening, and they still cannot grasp this. How fucking stupid can you be?
They will sit out again, and then whine and whine while we lose what's left of our Republic.
I'm only shocked because this shit is still considered news. Democrats aren't "leaning" center or right. They are so far from progressive they don't even know what it looks like anymore.
WTF Gavin. Yeah, no "technically" it may not be an actual genocide, as Gazans still exist, but my dude, Israel is certainly doing a bang up job of acting like they really want to go all the way and do it.
Fucking hell, this splitting of political hairs and pandering to the morally bankrupt people in AIPAC is disgusting..
Genocide does not require the complete elimination of the targeted people. It also doesn't even involve killing.
A UN Commission has already found that they have and the International Court of Justice has found that the accusation is plausible (the case is still ongoing). Only 10 countries have actively rejected the claim. Newsome isn't technically correct, he's just doing pro-Israel spin.
It's insane that his team had complete control over this footage and still thought it was a good idea to air. I'm thankful that they didn't have the better judgment to prevent this episode from seeing the light of day. Maybe the pod should have some actual leftists on so Newsom can stumble and equivocate his way into a good take for once.

That's the neoliberals who say that as they proudly stop progressive policies at every avenue and coddle with fascists if too many are elected.
Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 212d
Denying an obvious genocide is support for that genocide.
So it's no surprise to see who's demanding fealty in this thread.

The UN and every single human rights org: "Israel is committing genocide"
Democrats: "No it's not genocide but I understand why lefties have their feefee's hurt. Is everyone statisfied with my both sides answer?"

If youve gotten to the point of blue no matter what you don't really have a democracy anymore. You have an autocracy with vaguely democratic features.
