You dumb, dumb motherlovers.

You could be smart enough to say "frick you" to the mainstream Dem candidates early in the campaign.
The dumbass other half fears "the establishment" to the degree of going to dotards, coachfrickers and antivaxxers. Removing "the establishment" from your side could make them fear those more.
So the part about dumb, dumb motherlovers can be arguably addressed to almost all of you, my cowboy friends.
Especially those saying that "the perfect is the enemy of the good" and people should vote for Harris instead of someone like Bernie or someone like Larry Lessig or who not. [-35]

I'm not an American voter.
My bullshit before the election usually involved saying that you still have to vote for Harris.
I'd say the media bullshit about the support of candidates, that communicated the wrong picture to Americans deciding whether to vote, has contributed much more than anything I ever wrote.
No reason to panic. It's just 4 more years, and then another election. Usually when someone promises you massacres and other bad things, you believe them, but not in this case - you've elected people who've never followed up on their promises.
I live in Russia, so you had it coming for the older disingenuous bullshit about Russia being "just an imperfect democracy" and Putin being better than some imagined unholy alliance of communists and neo-Nazis. [-7]

Hi, this sentiment from non-americans pisses me off and it's okay, but I feel it's important to explain why so I'm copying another comment I made today.
Goodness knows some of us are trying our best. I mean keep in mind our country is a democracy in name but systemically props up white supremacists in excess of the real popular opinion. And a media disinformation machine keeps the working class divided against itself, with open support from the wealthiest and owners of the most popular social media platforms. Social media platforms that, let's be honest, are super recent inventions we are not yet capable of engaging with safely. It makes it an uphill battle to try to reach out to people whose necks aren't on the line. And the responsibility to do so falls upon the disenfranchised themselves, who are increasingly saddled with economic and health burdens that might just kill us someday.
I get the potshots at Americans, but frankly I don't plan on taking the blame if this goes tits up - many of us did a heck of a lot more than vote to resist fascism. Nothing happened here that isn't happening elsewhere. And I'll fight the notion that citizens at large are the problem. It's a cynical outlook that serves to individualize the responsibility for a systematic disaster. Our country was built to make this possible after all. And I sure as heck know I don't plan on giving up. Kind of morbidly curious about how much of an incompetent clusterfrick Project 2025's implementation will be.
Victory or no, fascists are paper tigers and I plan on sticking around to remind them of that fact however I can. [

Well the entire multiplatform astroturfing campaign from people who call themselves leftists worked! Democrats stayed home instead of voting.
Now Palestine will be completely flattened with 0 resistance at all, and redoubled support and bombs for Israel! Way to go! You really showed your support for Palestine by helping this happen!
They will probably come back saying "it wasn't our fault, we just pointed out the truth" while they shouted that a vote for Harris was a vote for genocide [so don't vote for harris] from every platform that they used.
https://lemmy.world/comment/13293051
Honest question: Why blame the voters? Why not blame Harris for refusing to do the obviously correct, ethical even moral thing regarding Gaza?
The democrats are so impossibly spineless that they wait for polls and focus groups for their talking points instead of standing up for their principles (if they really exist).
Dems spent the entire campaign trying to compromise with and convince right wingers acting in bad faith instead of just working towards progressive policies. They once and again let the GOP set the tone for every conversation.
The Dem's attitude towards the genocide in Gaza is just a piece of evidence that shows their way of thinking: the dog race and politicking is more important that doing the right thing.
So stop blaming the voters and take a deep look into your own values and principles because the nation being obliterated right now in the middle east and the people who stand for them even at great cost to themselves are definitely not to blame. [-94]

Agreed, though you specifically are a peice of shit and your biased fricking sub are part of the problem.
https://lemmy.world/comment/13291507

Yes, some of these are fearmongering but he's made all sorts of promises and debts are due! The sky is the limit! [

lmao maybe 5% of this will happen and I'm being generous.
https://lemmy.world/comment/13294434
The deportation is gonna come first. Military aid is America's bread an butter. Shutting down of news outlets will be "official acts". Democrats imprisoned will be an "official act"
That'll be the first year [

https://lemmy.world/comment/13294434
MORE SEETHE BELOW
My bets are…
Police protections
Tax Burden shift
Media control/persecution
New protection for discrimination on 1st amendment grounds for hiring/business
NOAA collapse (more like privatization)
Deportations
Democrat imprisonments
Removal of carbon output caps.
Also missing, he is going to dismiss all the court cases against himself, and use the military to lock up anyone who filed or testified against him.
Oh and Joe Biden is going to sit on his thumbs for the next 2 months instead of taking the wrapper off those new tyrant powers and drone-striking his butt.
https://lemmy.world/comment/13294434
Pour one out for America and Ukraine, and the Middle East in general. And Taiwan.
Europe and Asia, you guys better get your shit together, we might be out of this one permanently. Or we might have a very long recovery time spanning decades. Such fricking bullshit.
https://lemmy.world/comment/13293945
Well, I for one will question it, because I don't understand what I'm seeing. How the flying frick is this happening?
https://lemmy.world/comment/13291348
Jesus Christ, I just realized Jimmy Carted lived to see his country die.
https://lemmy.world/comment/13295287
It doesn't matter.
Europeans know the history of fascism much, much better than Americans do and they're electing right-wing leaders too.
https://lemmy.world/comment/13296923
Is it because woman? Like holy shit, Biden was an old frick and still won last time. Hillary didn't win. Wtf, is it really because woman!? [

https://lemmy.world/comment/13296792
I guess I underestimated just how many americans have a problem with a PoC + Woman candidate, perhaps it was an error from the dems to not run a white guy at this moment.
https://lemmy.world/comment/13291506
Yeah, but it was never between Hitler and a woman! Yanks hate nothing more than women, so what did you expect?
Don't play dumb, she was unpopular with the left and did nothing to help with it. "Eat it up because otherwise it's trump" doesn't get you votes. [-53]

Don't worry guys. We'll run another centrist in 2028 too. But this time it'll work.

How do I request asylum in a country that doesn't want to erase trans people?
https://lemmy.world/comment/13294619
I fricking hate our country right now. This country is the dumbest it's ever been. There are no word as to how stupid this shithole is…
https://lemmy.world/comment/13292996
I remember seven years ago. Beautiful IV Reich there with caged migrant kids, white Americans publicly scolding people for speaking Spanish, improvisation all around, xenophobia as a government policy, riots on the streets. A revolution is due.
https://lemmy.world/comment/13297202
In Germany Hitler only got around a third of the vote. Trump is winning the popular vote.

Don't see anyone from .ml complaining. We're the new tankies now.

Horrible title for a thread. You people need to be asking questions about what just happened.

Well, he didn't do it democratically to my knowledge. [-6]
https://lemmy.world/comment/13300585
Wait, what? Thats a little bit of a stretch, don't you think? Under Hitler, 6 million jews and millions of others were imprisoned, starved and slaughtered. I know some Jewish people who are fairly offended by this comparison. I know at first people were largely being hyperbolic, but its become clear that many actually feel this way. He aint Hitler guys, not even close. Thats kinda ridiculous. [-7]
