Elections where the rightwing party wins and continues to move us farther rightward makes my life worse.
Swathes of people making false equivalences between fascists and liberals, helping give us that election result, makes my life worse.
Unfortunately for us both, for at least the last 44 years, that's both parties. It's called the Ratchet Effect.
Look, I don't like centrists, center right, or regular ass conservatives.
But if you tell me you sat out of an election that effected whether fascists win or not I wont consider you an ally and wish upon you the full brunt of results that you failed to vote against.
I hope that everyone in this country (even if that includes me) suffers intense and miserable economic pain for letting him win. We deserve it.
And its not even for the sake of a lesson, my emotions have lead me into a state of nearly pure spite politics after November 2024.
I'll admit I was saving up to leave but my own financial set backs have more or less likely cemented my fate of being stuck among the idiots that live in my country.
