  • No, this post is freaking out about Kamala.

    How do i live in a fantasy world? Mamdani won, and the democrats other than Bernie and AOC refused to endorse him. They would rather Eric Adams, who is Trumps little bitch, stayed in power. Or Andrew Cuomo.

    Its funny that the dems keep using all those things as a carrot to get people to vote for them but then never actually do anything with them. No one is asking for politicians to be more entertaining, im not sure where you got that from my post. I would rather they weren’t entertaining but actually listened to their constituents. The democrats absolutely have failed to listen to their constituents since Obama.

    Their constituents wanted Bernie in 2016. Deb Wasserman Schulz and the DNC said no its her turn and gave it to Hilary, who had no chance of beating trump. Then they won with Biden because everyone was sick of trump, not because of anything great Biden did. Biden made a bunch of promises, the big one being that he would be a one term president. That didnt happen. The democratic voters very clearly said they didnt want genocide. Biden hopped in with Netenyahu.

    The fact that you still cant wrap your head around the fact that people might care about a genocide happening and not want to vote for a someone enacting it just because the next person would keep enacting what was already started is pretty troubling about your sense of morality.



  • Its been over a year and people still are freaking out about this? And not the fact that the democrats have basically rolled over at every turn to trump and the GOPs demands?

    The dems did not do s good job mobilizing their voter base. A bunch of people didnt like genocide. A bunch of people didnt like Biden. A bunch of people held their nose and voted for him the first time when he said he would get rid of student loans and be a one term president. He reneged on almost every single promise he made. He then committed genocide. People didnt like it. The DNC shoved him and Kamala down everyone’s throats instead of having an actual election. They’ve fucked themselves 3 cycles in a row now and then start complaining about socialists.

    They were all vote blue no matter who when it was Biden or Kamala but now Mamdani won in NY and they’re all teaming up with the Republicans to stop him. Maybe thats why they keep fucking losing - they dont want to listen to their own base.

    What do regular people want? Higher taxes on the rich, more affordable housing and food, Healthcare for all, and good education. All they’ve done is say well this will hurt billionaires feelings so we cant do it.

    Yes i get that

    But we also live on an oblong sphere, which is 3 dimensional

    The axes of north and south, east and west, are two dimensional

    If you have a ship that can sail through anything, with infinite provisions, and you sail past the south pole, you will end up going north. That doesnt suddenly discount the fact that up until a certain point, you were going south. If the sea is immediately around the island, which it is, and is on the opposite side of the exact point of the axis, i wouldnt call that a misnomer.

    When you are in that area you’re essentially sailing south until you’re sailing north. If we came at it from the other side it would likely be called something different.

    The map he linked literally shows the Ross sea south of Antarctica.

    Also since its earth is spherical and its near the south pole you can really go any direction and find a sea… that just becomes a matter of perspective.

    In this case, specifically, the wedell sea is to the north of the continent
