It's crazy the amount of people that think the evil voters are at fault and not the political party that made a wedge issue out of fucking genocide of all things.
So glad the current guys got in! How's that going for ya btw? That genocide stop? No? It's accelerating? So glad more children can die so you can still confidently hold your nose in the air.
I hate the current guy even more. It seriously bothers me that the dems lost to him because they thought genocide was more important then you and me. I really wish they would have ran a proper platform, so we didnt have to vote for democracy and genocide at the same time, and still lose.
Keep blaming everyone but them and maybe we can have the same circus next election too. We all just have to come together and accept genocide, apathy and status quo like maybe three or four more times.
We will remember the devil's bargain we were forced to answer, so will the rest of the world.
This is a watershed moment in world history.
I'm going to keep blaming stupid Americans because that's where the fault primarily lies.
Oh no, a political party didn't run a picture perfect campaign against a felon rapist's racist fascist campaign. Guess that means we have to let the felon rapist win.
Do you know how many less fucks I give about 2 countries on the other side of the planet continuing an everlasting religious conflict compared to creeping fascism in my own fucking country?
American voters couldn't see the forest for the trees, because they're stupid. So now we sit squarely in the stupidest timeline.
Oh no, a political party *threw a presidential campaign rather than win and risk acknowledging the humanity of Palestinians.
FTFY
Repeat after me: Israel is committing a genocide.
Yes they are.
As is Russia, half a dozen countries, and oh we stopped funding the who and usaid.
So we're now aiding multiple genocides.
MISSION fucking ACCOMPLISHED.
I wish I read this earlier, but it feels refreshing to read even if I'm a few hours late.
Wait, you mean the thing that we told the Dems would happen, happened? Crazy, who could have seen that coming? It's almost like we wanted them to be a party of decency, so we could tell people to vote for them without having to defend the killing of children.
Maybe next time, the Dems should put up a candidate people want to vote for, instead of shaming people for being against Genocide.
Welcome to reality, and adulthood, where, more often than not, you are working to mitigate shitty situations to get the least destructive outcome possible.
Americans failed to do so, because they chose to squabble over a party not being perfect while a felon rapist and his enabling party of fascists took complete control.
Maybe next time (if there is one) we can cry again about the party that's provably better for average Americans while we descend further into fascism. That'll make things better.
Looking at the party for the last few years, I see: Choosing a rapist, child-killing, genocide supporter as the candidate. Gaslighting everyone on the cognitive abilities of said candidate. Continuously screwing over the working class. Gaslighting everyone on the state of the economy. Bailing out their rich friends, while telling the poor and homeless that they need to suck it up. Propping up the fascist that beat them as their opponent. Bombing innocent people. Saying that they would be harder on immigrants than the fascist. Helping build a stupid border wall. Increasing funding to violent assholes that attack the working class. Picking unpopular candidates and running on right-wing values.
I feel like that is a far cry from "not being perfect"
So glad that you held the country, and especially vulnerable populations like LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, immigrants, and disabled people, not to mention the Palestinian and Ukrainian people, hostage while demanding that Dems do things that have zero historical evidence of them agreeing to. I can't speak for all of us but, I bet the others are also glad that you were able to keep your moral high-ground and didn't feel at all betrayed and upset about it. /s
Yes, you successfully ushered in fascism, just like you threatened to do. Give yourself a pat on the back.
It was not a threat, it was a warning. If you keep putting up bad candidates and bad policies, people aren't going to want to vote for you. I voted against fascism. The Democrats told me to sit down and shut up so that they could assist in ushering in fascism. Get mad at them, not me.
Are you on meth?
