50% of us couldn't be bothered to have an opinion, so I guess they get what they get.
Nice! I've job hopped a few times and tripped my salary in 5 years and am at a unicorn msp with unlimited PTO and management that cares about employees.
I wish I could find a union IT shop, but nothing around that I've seen available. Happy to hear my first statement isn't as universal as my experience suggests!
There are dozens of us (working for MSPs because in house doesn't pay as well and companies are cheap and want to outsource that cost center)!
Whatever helps you sleep at night with the choices you made friend.
I'm not here to shame anyone. You knew what was at stake when you pulled the lever, I hope you're happy with the outcome. I'm just not going to let people abdicate the responsibility they're trying to shirk for the choices they made.
But you'll be happy to note that I won't be interacting with you again, because I've got no time for cowards who shift blame for consequences of decisions they've made.
It abso-fucking-lutely is the voters fault as well as the party's. They knew the options and chose the worst possible one. Get the fuck out of here with that whitewashing bullshit. Even when you have a shit choice, you're still making the choice, and it's on you too.
They'll learn nothing from this
That goes for the voters just as much. Next time we're staring down a fascist and a shitty dem, we'll pick the fascist because the Dems has to have a spotless record or we'll piss away any progress we have in a temper tantrum.
I fucking hate my fellow Americans.
And instead of doing something even remotely helpful, they let the genocide harder guy win.
But go off, accelerationist, go ahead and tell me how this makes things better. And keep using the word fascist, maybe someday you'll learn the meaning.
I've taken to calling them out as exactly what they are: virtue signallers. Like you said, they're just larping about caring about these people, and boy do they get salty when they have to deny it.
I've said for years that voter apathy would be the death of this country.
I hate that I was right.
First time, eh?
Of course not. They're just lone wolfs who had a bad day.
Look into local mutual aid groups and do what you can for those around you. That will go a long way to help you and your mental health, plus having a strong network means you can help when things start to get bad.
