So, how long do you think Democrats will have their temper tantrums on social media? They were regularly told the race would be super close from pollsters, only to find out it wasn’t. It’s truly amazing to witness people so disconnected from reality

Will this be the death knell for celebrity endorsements?

Nobody gives a fuck what celebrities think anymore. We already know what they think, all the time, because of social media. The mystique is gone. They are exposed. They have no special knowledge that the plebs aren't privy to. They know nothing more than the average Joe on the street.

If you rely on a bunch of fucking rich film actors in Los Angeles to support your beliefs, you have heard mentality, and you have no actual beliefs, you are functionally livestock and I have no respect for you.

Is it just some Heritage Project bullshit?

Yeah, it's Heritage Foundation bullshittery that Peter Theil's cooked up but I think even Theil at this point just used it as a boogeyman to keep the lefty libshits from actually being able to be coherent about politics, so normies tuned out. It's like the Q-LARP for the left, they can talk about this mysterious plan that there's no real evidence of that's already been disavowed but they keep thinking about the MAGA PATRIVTS IN CONTROL

I'm more interested in the leftwing political YouTubers begging their supporters to stop canceling subscriptions.

Little does he know in Massachusetts over a million people voted for Trump, and over 40 percent voted for him.
I think these southern states are “uneducated” not because they’re full of Republicans… but… awwwww shiieeeet mane

Given how election rigging goes, who knows how many "blue states" are actually red ones in persecution.

You guys do realize the salad days and eternal summer of the internet is completely over yeah? Any post you see on reddit or twitter is far more likely to be engagement bait that is produced by "chatgpt write me a 2019-era reddit post complaining about election results, make sure I have at least one mental disorder, an unstable partner on the verge of suicide and that somehow the new presidential election results matter"

I was curious so I went and actually tried this.

Title: I'm about to lose it. This election result is a disaster and I can't keep it together anymore.

I really don’t know how much more I can take, honestly. I’ve been trying to hold it together for so long, but the weight of everything is just crushing me right now. I have severe anxiety and depression—I’m on meds for both—but it’s like they don’t even make a dent anymore. And my partner… my partner is just hanging on by a thread, too. I think they might be suicidal. They keep talking about how nothing matters anymore, how everything is broken. And I can’t even blame them, because the state of the world is just getting worse.

I don’t even know how to talk to them right now because every time I do, they get more distant or more angry. And then I come online to try to distract myself, and this election result happens, and it feels like the last straw.

How is this the best we can do? I really thought we had a shot at something better. Maybe it’s stupid to care so much about who wins, but this election feels different. I thought we were heading in the right direction, but now it’s like everyone is just willing to turn a blind eye to all the harm that’s been done. Every single issue that’s been haunting us—climate change, healthcare, mental health, inequality—just feels so hopeless now. My partner is terrified about what this means for the future. They keep saying that things are only going to get worse, that they can’t survive in a world that’s this broken. And now I’m wondering if they’re right. Maybe it’s all pointless. Maybe we’re all just waiting for the inevitable collapse.

I just feel like I’m losing control. I’ve spent years battling my own mental health problems, and it’s like every day is a struggle to get out of bed. But with everything happening right now… the election, the constant news, the uncertainty, I feel like I’m spiraling faster than I can keep up. I try to talk to my partner, but they just get quieter and more distant, and I don’t even know what to say anymore. I just want to make sure they’re okay. But I don’t know how to help them when I can barely hold myself together.

I’m so tired. I’m so fucking tired of living in this nightmare. And I feel like the more I care, the worse everything gets. Like… what’s the point? Can anyone give me a reason why I should keep trying?
All I can say is, lmao.

People don't like when false prophets turn out to be liars or when their predictions turn out to be wrong apparently.

This was all of the videos the channel pumped out before the election:

thing is Troon stuff was something that came from the mentally ill 1/3 of their base and they ran with it partly to call their opponents "bigots" and partly because they have no choice, they need that 1/3 to even have a shot at winning an election.

there's a possibility they try and distance themselves from it now but i think they're in too deep. it'll be like what happened this cycle with Muslims rejecting democrats over Israel.

Here's a theory that I like:

The transgender issue rose to prominence precisely after the left won on gay marriage.

You had all these activists, all these fundraising networks, all this political machinery whose express purpose had just been achieved. If you are naive, you might expect them to say "Job's done, time to go home," shut it all down and go away. But instead, it all got funneled into the next gay marriage - trans rights.
