dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

When Kamala wins the popular vote but the electoral college (whatever the fuck that is) says "no" and picks Trump and the dems just go "ah! well. nevertheless,". (hexbear.net)

Do they actually care if they lose, is it really a punishment? Feels like they'll just continue Republican policies whenever they're next in power and keep willingly being dragged to the right.

Yeah it comes down to two case:

  1. Dems care whether they lose -> okay so they should lose so they don't think they can just enthusiastically prosecute a genocide and still win
  2. Dems don't care whether they lose -> cool I will treat them similarly and simply not vote for a party that does not care about winning

Definitely, not arguing against the outcome either way

It mostly punishes the libs putting Kamala signs all over their front lawns. The Dem politicians are only punished in the sense of losing more people to socialist ideas.

those libs are gonna be fine and they'll get to play The Resistance again (which they love doing) so they're not punished either.

Gotcha, agreed there for sure.

This time, I actually think they do. They actually seem to be trying this time, presumably because they're scared of Trump with presidential immunity, and it's quickly approaching "and then they came for me".

Having Drumpf in the White House another 4 years will give the Democrat party a massive angle for donation fishing.
