        The last time we had a legitimate primary was six years ago because liberals let Biden campaign long enough to prevent a legitimate primary in 2024. Because liberals prefer MAGA over leftists.

            He is partially incorrect in his claim about the 2024 primary. We had a primary in 2024 (not a legitimate one IMHO) but the 2024 primary does demonstrate liberals preferring MAGA over leftists.

            The uncommitted movement had ~25 percent of the vote in Michigan which was a swing state the Dems couldn’t beat Trump without. The Dems chose to ignore this warning and continue funding the genocide.

            The liberals screaming at leftist over the last 18 months stems from leftists having solidarity with the Muslim community in Michigan when the Democratic party abandoned them for their Isreal donors.

            Also even if every third party vote had gone to Kamala in every swing state she still would have lost to Trump.

            The contension stems partly from liberals unwillingness to think critically about the failures of the democratic party. Preferring party loyalty and rejecting the wishes of the voters over accepting any constructive criticism from the left.

            You want to respond by defending the democrats. Perhaps saying people who voted third-party actually support Trump. Any excuse you make for the democrats loss proves the exact point I’m making.

            You’ll attack the left even when they’re offering constructive feedback and even when not listening to your left flank means MAGA winning. In other words, you would rather MAGA win than the left.

              Third party has never changed a modern election it’s the people who couldn’t bring themselves to vote for a black woman that swung things.

              Biden still could have comfortably won over Trump again.

                I debated bringing this up in my original comment, but there were rumors the reason Nancy Pelosi started pushing so hard for Biden to drop out was; she found out that the internal Democratic Party polling showed Biden losing by hundreds of electoral college votes.

                Regardless, your response proves my point maybe better than any other response I’ve received here on Lemmy. As soon as any legitimate criticism pops up you throw black women under the bus rather than letting a leftist win, rather than admit a leftist has a point.

                Judging by the fact they they hid the autopsy for years, it was because of the genocide and milquetoast neoliberal policies that she lost, not what’s between her legs.

                    I guess time flies when you’re having fun with the trump administration, feels like it’s been 10 years already, lol.

                    Funny that that’s the only element of my comment you replied to, though.

            Okay, will someone who disagrees with me explain to this guy how primaries work an incumbent is running? He’s not going to believe anything I say.
