Dear far leftists - the American people did not fail you. You failed them.

    Stop feeling sorry for yourselves.

    And stop blaming voters.

    The reason you got handed this is because you failed Americans. Not because Americans failed you.

    [​IMG]

    One reason you lost is your fixation on niche identity groups and divisive “hierarchies of victimhood” over the common good, to make yourselves feel more virtuous, when in reality you are not.

    This obsession alienated the working class, who face real, universal struggles around inflation, wages, healthcare, and job security.

    Worse, you leftists’ eagerness to divide people by race and gender to assign moral value is in itself racist and sexist, reinforcing stereotypes instead of building unity.

    By prioritizing narrow identity-based issues and creating a “hierarchy of victimhood,” leftists not only alienate working-class families - they also perpetuate a divisive mindset. This hierarchy, which ranks individuals based on perceived oppression, ironically deepens the very issues it claims to address.

    This approach reinforces stereotypes and pits groups against each other rather than building unity around shared struggles. In elevating certain identities over others, you failed to represent the broader public and erode the dignity of individuals who deserve to be seen as more than labels.

    By sidelining the universal concerns of working Americans for identity politics, leftists missed an opportunity to build solidarity, instead fostering resentment among those who feel dismissed. This focus on identity over unity isn’t just politically shortsighted; it’s morally wrong.

    The tipping point for many, though, has been the public’s disgust with far-left groups that appear aligned with extremist supporters of terrorist organizations like Hamas and Hezbollah. Recent protests on streets and university campuses have shown demonstrators vocally supporting groups committed to violence and openly calling for the murder of Jews. Such rhetoric is appalling to the vast majority of Americans who value peace, tolerance, and security. This alignment, or even passive tolerance of it, reveals a dangerous lack of moral clarity.

    Adding to the disillusionment, the left has increasingly embraced authoritarian tactics. While they accused their political opponents of undermining democracy and free speech, leftists have themselves tried to censor dissenting voices on social media, shut down open debate, and engage in lawfare against opponents. The very acts of censorship, suppression, and manipulation that they claimed to fight have become part of their playbook. This double standard—using “cancel culture” and censorship to silence opposition—reveals the left’s eagerness to control narratives rather than promote free expression.

    Ultimately, by embracing divisive tactics and authoritarian approaches, the left has strayed from its duty to represent and uplift all citizens, especially the working class. Instead of fostering unity and standing by democratic values, they have pushed many Americans away with moral inconsistency and a failure to uphold the principles of respect, tolerance, and freedom. This isn’t merely a strategic failure; it’s a deep ethical betrayal.

    This is from a (common sense) Democrat:



    Democrats, if you ever want to be electable again, you have to purge the far left, and divisive woke ideology.

    Of course, the far leftists - like the clowns on this forum - @FranchiseBlade, @SamFisher, @Xopher, @fchowd0311, to name just a few - will tell you the opposite - they will tell you you need to double down.

    Either way, America will win.

    Dem leaders just gas light and manipulate black people in order to win elections.

    If they lose black people they will never win another election unless they slide over to the middle ground.

    They are completely toast moving forward unless they abandon the LBGQ, Antifa groups and refocus towards being dead middle.

    In an election they had to have, they got absolutely thrown out to dry by Joe Biden and looked completely unprepared despite the signs being there for years.

    Unfortunately, Democrats (in general) are incapable of comprehending and accepting the rational explanations of how the D party has let down America and why their candidate lost. They'll only receive that information as fascist, sexist, racist, garbage propaganda... ...because they are blinded by the fascist, sexist, racist glasses they are wearing. It's truly sad.

    As long as people are respectful and hardworking, I don't really care if they are positioned right or left.

    Just be normal.

    The States have a massive media problem and Trump is an arsehole, those 2 points aren't mutually exclusive.

    They have to figure out how to have more centrist coverage and channels and how to avoid vulgar figures to run for presidency in the future.

    The nation need more great role models again....and not MAGA shet.

    The crowd has spoken though, buckle up and work harder.

    And people still don't understand that by voting a criminal as President, the US lost its dignity....but again people egg him on.

    But okay, I try to rationalize.

    I did agree with you on stopping being victims and working harder on themselves.

    Kamala lost because half of Americans are stupid. It really is just that simple.

    Jimmy is full of shiit. He’s ecstatic on the inside knowing that he will be talking about Trump for the next 4 years. Damn grifter!

    It's hard to imagine that he once hosted The Man Show.

    There are rumours of him being on the Diddy list. Not sure if true.

    How long will it take for Trump to solve the Hatian problem? Need to know when my dogs and cats are safe.

    Money is a lot, lot, lot more impactful in local races.

    President and US Senate and Governor, not so much.
