50+% America, you'll get what you wanted. Also those who didn't vote will get what they deserve.
Since only somewhere around 65% of people voted and Trump got almost half the votes that means approximately 2/3rds of Americans are at least okay with having Trump as president and fascists in power.
Not everyone that didn’t vote supports this. Some people just couldn’t get the day off because they’re living day by day and couldn’t take a day off to wait in line for 5 hours at the one polling place in their city.
Don't you guys have mail voting?
Most of the US doesn’t, or you need a “valid” excuse, which usually doesn’t include working. I’m lucky to live in a state that does default mail in voting.
Still, those are probably not enough to invalidate my argument
You assume those who didn't vote, would vote for Harris. An unfounded assumption
Inaction makes you complicit. Not voting does not give you any moral high ground, especially when one of the people being voted for is a fascist. These people would rather let fascism run free and wait for a golden unicorn instead of making slow and steady progress with imperfect candidates.
More and more I remember Kreia telling The Exile that "apathy is death".
10 million less votes for Democrats and only 5000000 more votes for trump since last election. Yes I assume a large portion would have.
In states where they don't matter by in large. It's a weird complaint to be honest, of people didn't vote they either had a reason or weren't engaged and that isn't exactly their fault.
I'm sorry, but if I completely skip evaluating Harris to make this easier... I would vote for a box of pizza before tRump.
I think its ok if someone doesnt vote. I also think they forfeit their right to complain.
Now tell us your thoughts on latinos that don't agree with you. What do you hope happens to them?
Lotta libs soundin real fuckin evil lately
i’ll bite.
i hope they get exactly what they voted for.
Lol. How brave /s
Show your true colors y'all! Finally, you can stop pretending you truly care about struggling Americans that don't share the same values as you - coincidentally, exactly like your slightly more racist/white-supremacist neighbors
Hopefully we can at least admit rural folks are absolutely correct in feeling like we hate them. I mean, that still won't win us any elections but it's a step in the right direction - one towards a more honest party

By values, you mean supporting a violent and openly fascist political party whose main goal is to hunt migrants to deport?
Hopefully we can at least admit rural folks are absolutely correct in feeling like we hate them.
Lol, is that the same logic you apply to the civil war? The North just hated the South for their rural ways?
I wouldn't agree with what the person you are responding to says, because I don't think anyone deserves not be ripped from their homes. But I can understand why people would wish unpleasant times to people who voted to do exactly that.
Falsely equivocating all of that down to, "hating rural folks" for their country ways is inaccurate, ahistorical, and highly reductive.
Understanding that people regularly vote against their own interest and then gleefully celebrate them doing so........ You are also sounding real fucking evil bud.
I don't understand what you're saying. I'm trying to do the exact opposite of celebrating anyone's misfortune. That's kinda gross, to me
I know people that can't even vote that are likely going to have to seriously consider what states they visit or worse. It's wild that people that supposedly voted against it now support it because they want to feel good about themselves. Classic American shit, tbh

Oh please, the specific criticism you brought up unprovoked has been repeated nearly exclusively by leftist accelerationists who are too busy virtue signaling to even bother to participate with electorial harm reduction.
What exactly are you referring to? I'm saying I think it's gross to celebrate bad things happening to people you disagree with. If my brother was happy that I was scammed, I'd think he's a dick. If he later said he actually cared about me I'd remember him laughing.
I simply don't see my fellow Americans as the enemy, I see them as people I disagree with. I see the wealthy people and the institutions that protect them as the enemy. Helping to divide poor people is very much against what I'd consider good politics
You're saying leftist accelerationists are saying that? Weren't they saying don't vote/vote Trump because that will help people realize they need change or some bs like that? How did/does it seem like I'm saying that? What did I comment that caused you to have that assumption/reaction to what I was saying? The election's over. Votes are cast. Let's not be sore losers. Let's talk. Let's learn. Idk, back to basics time, to me. This is not the time to say I knew/know everything, no one better try to approach me with an alternative POV
That said, I get there's a lot of pressure from bad actors testing literally everything we believe in.
