I understand the poster may be very emotional because of the election. Yet, This strikes me as incredibly reductive.
I think she lost because, she represents the continuation of the current administration. People want to break from the status quo, even if that means harming society to do it.
The dems need a left wing populist, asap.
Only right wing socialists are electable. Billions of dollars in propaganda told me so.
I keep hearing this 'status quo' excuse but no one ever explains what the fuck that's supposed to even mean.
status quo means the current state of things
I'm aware of the phrase's meaning. It's not being used this way from what I can tell.
Seems to me that conservative policy is the status quo. Almost by definition, 'conserving' the way things are, or what they believe it is. As a general trend, the us has leaned much more conservative. This is the status quo.
Changing, progressive policy is literally antithetical to the status quo. A woman in office is not the current state. So why do people say that the dem candidate is the status quo if that makes no sense?
There’s definitely an element of misinformation here. Too many people are rebelling against a “status quo” that never existed
They're talking about the administration's policies, not the Zeitgeist of Americans.
Liberals would much rather turn to fascism than let a leftist win
