Anyone who didn't bother to choose Harris deserves Trump. Enjoy!
I really appreciate your thoughtful response, and no question everyone could have done better here. And the country absolutely needs to heal from the division Trump has caused the last 8 or 9 years. The thing that blows my mind though, is when people who didn't vote have the audacity to blame someone else for Trump being elected. The votes are the smoking gun here no matter what else was at play. We had a normal person, more than happy to step in and prevent the further spread of this national cancer and she gets blamed somehow when things go south. Run a better campaign, sure, that's a fair critique. But ultimately the voters did shit the bed here
Lots of salty non-voters in this thread from the looks of it
Anyone who didn't vote for her doesn't want a functional adult in office... So they got what they wanted I guess. I 100% blame those voters
Remember when people said they'd take "Any functional adult" over Trump? Well... That's why I still blame the voters here. They had their functional adult and didn't seize the opportunity
They probably have other reasons they vote republican. If they could cherry pick each issue, those 41% would obviously vote accordingly but the reality is it's just one big game of red vs blue so it's yet another complex topic reduced to a binary
The moving thing worked for me, I just said I'm moving back in with my parents and they have amazing Internet. Like to me that's a checkmate, they can't say anything
What I like about lemmy so far is downvotes don't effectively censor people like they do on Reddit. Reddit collapses downvoted comments which I think is kinda fucked up
I wouldn't be surprised if one day democracy actually dies with the thunderous applause of those who enjoyed those amazing prequels
