No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
I honestly think you're giving them more credit than they deserve. My point is that a _rapist, fascist, cruel, racist, misogynist who has said aloud all the horrible things he will do was running for office and a lot of people just shrugged their shoulders and refused to vote. I can't imagine that kind of apathy when a fascist is taking over. "Sure Hitler and the Nazi's are bad, but what am I going to do, vote socialist?"
(Also this because people need to remember he was anti-capitalist as well.)
Apathy or exhaustion?
Maybe. If so, Slipknot was right and people really do = shit. I cannot imagine saying to my women friends and family "okay so you're losing bodily autonomy, but I'm super exhausted about this whole voting thing."
I voted. Most of the women in my family didn't. Most of the women in my family are not and never have been registered to vote.
And this is the sound thundering through my soul for the last few days.
