I'm....speechless and all out of snark on this one. This is fucking horrifying.
Single-issue voters who threw their vote away or sat out and did not help stop this, well, hope you're happy with your choices.
Seriously fucked up. Sane people saw this coming and tried to stop it. Now there's straight up Nazi shit happening in America.
I hope you get used to this feeling. Cuz it's going to keep happening. It's so fucking clear that the Democrats are not learning a single thing from this utter defeat they suffered. And the many defeats they've suffered the last decade and a half.
Democrats voted. It's independent leftists that didn't vote. And encouraged others to not vote or vote third party. Hope you're happy with yourselves. This is what we get because you ragged on Democrats the entire election season. Gtfoh.
Most of the leftists I see on Lemmy and know personally begrudgingly voted for Kamala. The people on here saying genocide Joe constantly were plants.
The fact is, at least 2 million democrats who voted in the previous election did not vote this time. Leftists are an incredibly small portion of the population unfortunately.
Or better, hope your losing sleep and sick to your stomachs and ready to take action in every available protest, election, boycott, donation, etc.
One can dream.
Unfortunately, they are still in "deny genocide is happening" mode.
Although a handful of them have taken a "America deserves genocide" tack instead.
Pffffft, yeah right. They'll "take action" inasmuch as it saves them a trip to the voting station two blocks away. I'm praying that the people who did that will prove me wrong, but I'm not holding my breath.
This is me every time I see the "take action" bullshit. I'm not trusting my back to a bunch of people who couldn't be faffed to wait in line on an inconvenient day.
