If it's almost certainly coming anyway then you may as well throw them a bone first

And if it isn't coming anyway, then you've done a little bit to screw up the plans of impending worldwide fascist domination

I'd call that a win-win

Yeah I don't believe that for a fucking second to be honest with you, and I'm finding it difficult to not go insane with conspiracy theories about MAGA fucking with the vote counts, and becoming the same person I made fun of surrounding Jan 6 - except he has a proven record of being a cheat and all but outright stated his intent to cheat the election. I'm kind of dumbfounded that 3 hours after voting night closes the major news outlets are all reporting a Trump win which they couldn't possibly know yet, everyone takes this as fact and refuses to investigate any further. Official vote tally and certification isn't even until mid December by the usual schedule according to .gov sources.

Is it not just a little bit ridiculous to anyone else that in one of the most relentlessly politicized elections of the past century 15+ million people who voted last time suddenly didn't? 15 million people predominantly of the denominations that Trump and his goons particularly hate and wanted to silence? For that matter does anyone else find it strange that 45% of Latinos voted to deport themselves? I mean, some percentage I could expect, even up to like 20, I'd be disappointed but I'd understand, but 45%??

I am most certainly on some amount of copium here but I am incredibly surprised at the lack of any sort of investigation or push back or god damn anything surrounding what should certainly be contested results, at the very least. This feels very very fishy to me.

I'm nearly pissed off enough to try and run for local office myself now and I hope others also feel that drive.

Only reason I haven't done it is because I'm a nobody retail worker with no money. I can't afford to upend my life to go campaign. And I feel that a lot of other people are in a similar boat. But I also feel that the last hundred years of American politicians have been so far up their own asses that having a regular everyman in office like myself can't possibly be worse.

We should be able to take out a business loan or something to run for office. But also we shouldn't have to do that.

I'm about to print off about a million of those "I did that!!" stickers that the magats loved to stick on gas pumps. You better believe those things are going everywhere.

I am a hollow shell of a man, emptied of all but schadenfreude. If we're all going to suffer, I find peace in the fact that they'll suffer alongside me.

I have been made into that which I hated most and now I don't even have the energy to fight it anymore.

This is America. We are taught as little as possible in school. I promise you less than 10% of teachers know how to make an omega symbol on a computer let alone know how to teach that to a kid who has only interacted with an iPhone.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out....

The only reason they haven't done even better than that is 80% of their time in office is busy fixing the last Republican fuckup before the public gets a chance to go and elect more Republicans again

Trump has openly stated that he plans to abolish voting

"they lived under better circumstances in the last Trump term"

They lived under fucking Covid in the last Trump term, when everyone was confined to their homes while supply lines disintegrated and the cost of food more than doubled, while ashes from rampant forest fires rained down from a blood red sky.

Hey don't I remember reading 189,237,490 conversations about this exact thing for the last 8 months? Where everyone was begging third party voters to bite the bullet, please, for the sake of the future of democracy in America and even a slight attempt at survival for Gaza and y'all all told us to go fuck ourselves because we all love genocide? Yeah remember those conversations?

Anything to add now? Are you happy? We told you this would happen. We begged you to please reconsider your stance for the good of everyone. But no, we're just a bunch of dumb assholes who aren't educated enough about the war in the middle east.

Learn to see the world around you, please.
