Right: Tankies and trumpists
Left: anyone with a heart and a brain.
This needs to be animated to show the trolley rolling over piles of bodies.
Tankies being seen as “the right” is the ultimate fuck you to the political coordinates :D
Left: Leninlover1917 living in Canada being excited about democrats losing
Right: Everyone else who’s not a fascist or a tankie
I think you meant left on the second one. Although I guess everything is leaning right now.
That establishment Democrat on the right looks surprisingly happy.
The blame the Democrats deserve is secondary by about a half marathon. There’s nazis about, boy!
And that still leaves room for a lot of blame. But no, the underperforming firefighters are not at fault for the fire, the arsonist is.
The arsonist in this scenario would be the corporate Democrat consultants and Kamala herself. You run the same campaign in 4 more years and you’ll get another Republican. It is time for self-reflection and people to demand change in the Democratic party. Failing to do that is exactly why Trump got re-elected.
What got Trump elected is climate change increasing pressures in hundreds of domains, making people fearful and easy to manipulate. It’s happening the world over. Blaming whoever opposes Trump for not doing it quite right is another flavor of copium.
Yeah the guy who promised things would get ugly, would be a dictator, and wants to “make people pay”, he’s the good guy lol.
I never said that. But go on and tell us why you think Trump is the good guy.
The trolly problem has a clear moral good choice and bad choice. Saying the dem picked the choice with more deaths clearly indicates you think Trump is the track with less death, i.e. the good guy. Man, logic is never a strong suite for people like you huh?
The guy at the switch represents dem “leadership”.
It took the combined efforts of a lot of people to accomplish the Trump presidency. It took Harris’ weak platform, it took tankies’ attacks on Harris, and it took voters believing that Harris was worse than fascism. It’s a democracy, and that means millions of people share the blame.
Jesus Christ stop with this “tankies” bullshit already. Go outside. I fucking wish there were millions of “tankies” out there swaying US elections, but there aren’t. Attacks land most solidly when they are based in truths. I personally did not vote for Harris because of her unapologetic support for Israel’s genocide. How many other people did the same? A hundred thousand maybe? A couple hundred thousand?
The democrats fucked up by assuming that “not Trump” would get out the vote like it did in 2020. Unfortunately, they haven’t done shit for people since then. They’ve had 4 years to get shit done that nobody could argue with, but they didn’t. Instead, they took a hard right turn in the campaign (Gaza, border policy, “muscular military”, etc). Predictably, this didn’t " energize the base".
Democrat leadership decided fascism was preferable to any capital concessions to the working class. It wasn’t the first time, and it won’t be the last.
Another take:
The happy rider, is a conspiracy theory enjoyer. Happy in the “knowledge” that someone (anyone) is at the controls of the world, it gives comfort in a perverse way. Even though they know that the “controllers” are doing bad things.
The sad rider, is a realist. Can see that they are stuck on a trolley that is currently plowing through people, their personal actions mean nothing in the aggregate of all other actions in the world. They saw that the person at the leaver chose to keep themselves pure, rather than reduce the suffering in the world and taint themselves in the process.
