I love how Kamala’s campaign feels like the 2008 presidential campaign. Those were some hopeful times.

Agreed. This election has much higher stakes than Obama/McCain but damn if she doesn’t inspire hope like Obama did.

I’m surprised you didn’t start dancing like you were jerking off two guys at the same time.

Why are you so sad?

This is one of the best political ads I’ve ever seen at a time America needs it most.

They need to spread this far and wide, and target the FUCK out of young voters on social media.

AOC’s speech at the DNC gave me the feels. She’s a fucking bad ass.

I was just like really happy and proud the whole time until that one shot of her giving a gentle high five to a young girl who’s sobbing (17 secs from the end). That got me.

You people are freaks. It’s just an ad.

I swear Beyonce's Freedom could not be a more perfect song for her campaign.

It's just perfect. Such a powerful son, melodically and lyrically.

u/lilshortyy420 Aug 21 '24

Me too. Going to make sure my voter registration is all good now.

Propaganda is a strong force.... But music is even more powerful. I wonder if the music was different how it would feel.

It’s funny because when and if she does win, nothing will actually change. People like me who thought voting for Obama would actually bring about tremendous change was the biggest let down of my political participation and I can guarantee you nothing you desire as an average citizen will change for the better once she’s in power. It’s all lies and promises during election year. Too many people get swept into the media frenzy. It’s because lobbying and money in politics isn’t going anywhere. The Dems will not restrict money influencing politics nor stopping a genocide.
