Edge isn't really better in any way. It's both Google and Microsoft, like the marriage of awful

Firefox's future isn't looking good with all that layoffs and lost money. I am very scared that it might go the way of Opera, and then we will trully have nothing left.

Guess you didn't listen either, since you thought they offer you nothing

And if they will spend the last minutes they had on primaries, first of all you wouldn't participate in them anyway because you think they all rigged or whatever, and then you would not vote anyway because whoever won on primaries didn't have enough time to campaign and you just feel like you don't know enough about them to make a decision.
The levels of bullshit you have to come up with to avoid admitting you just collectively wanted Trump to win is astonishing really.

Progressive policies are actually popular.

Not according to voters patterns they aren't. Comments on Reddit, threads on Lemmy and shits on Xitter doesn't do anything if by the end of the day people who are incredibly active in those threads just don't vote. It is either because it's actually not a lot of people doing a lot of noise, or a lot of people who don't know how American democracy operates, and it doesn't matter if there is a difference. Promises of progressive politics don't bring votes, simple as.

Well, the fasch got around 15%. I suspect it's the same 15%.

It is also shouldn't be a surprise that political system not only doesn't give a shit but also doesn't have an idea about people who don't participate in it. Almost by definition.

The entertainment corporation "Fox news" will tell them that the egg prices are lower than they are, and a median voter will believe it, and they will pay more money, while believing that they aren't.

I am really surprised that it's not universally liked, it's such a good movie.

If they aren't "glued to politics" they will not get any of the messages, so message itself is clearly not the issue here. You will never appeal to voters that don't care about anything, they can't hear you. You will never appeal to online left, they don't care about politics, only about purity contest. You might appear to non-voters, it doesn't matter they will find an excuse to not vote anyway.
The issue with this election wasn't anything Dems could do or not do or did wrong. The issue is that America runs on hate and hateful part is united, and the other half isn't and never will be and half of it actually runs on the same hate just scared to agree.
The only mistake Dems made this time is they forgot what America actually is. Next time they will run regressive right wing old dude and win again, but it will not be a win for anyone.
Win that I want, win for progress is impossible because America doesn't want it.

Yeah, you're right. I need to get back to my old instance that defederated that dumpster fire long ago.
