2024 U.S. Presidential and State election thread - I'm gonna... I'm gonna... VOOT!!! I'm VOOOOOTING!!!

[SCV]

I'll be honest, I feel kind of bad for the people who have legitimately taken their own lives. Clearly the motherfuckers had issues and never got the help they desperately needed. Even if it is really dumb to kill yourself over Emperor Dolan, I still feel bad.

Ah yes, the classic "Only smart people voted for Kamala and only stupid people voted for Trump."

Ok, can we finally admit Biden was a deep cover Trump operative? It’s the only answer that explains all thisView attachment 6617124

I 100 percent believe that biden is full on maga after what they did to him and, at some point, will publically come out as a huge trump supporter. There is no way someone like biden would allow that half pajeet mongrel to humiliate him calling him a racist/rapist (even if she claims she wasn't calling him that its the end effect) in the primaries in 2020 and the oust him in 2024 without shoving a few knives in her back on his way out.

I'd love to see how kamala fucks up the last 2 months of her presidency.

I was curious so I went and actually tried this.

Spoiler: Text

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.

Spoiler: what I got

I really don’t like getting political, but I’m losing my mind here. Trump won again, and Harris lost, and I’m just sitting here trying to process what that even means. I can’t even. Like, WHAT are we even doing? This can’t be real, right? It feels like I’m living in some dystopian nightmare. I can’t breathe. I have ADHD and anxiety, so processing this kind of chaos is literally impossible, but here we are, dealing with this. I’ve never been more terrified for the future. I can’t stop shaking.

And don’t even get me started on Project 2025. Are we seriously doing this? It feels like we’re headed straight for The Handmaid’s Tale. The stuff I’m reading makes my stomach turn. If you’re a woman, if you’re part of the LGBT community, or even if you’re just someone who believes in basic human rights, what the hell are we supposed to do now? This is the beginning of the end, and people are acting like it’s just another election. It’s not. We’re not just choosing a president here; we’re choosing what kind of country we’re going to live in, and I don’t recognize this place anymore.

And of course, I’m freaking out for my partner too. They have BPD, and I’m just watching them unravel as everything falls apart. They’re constantly telling me they can’t take it anymore, that this world is too much to handle, and I’m terrified one day it’ll be too late. I can’t fix this. I can’t fix the country, and I can’t fix us. My brain feels like it’s about to explode. Every time I try to talk about how bad this is, people just shut me down, like I’m being dramatic. I wish I was. I wish I was. But I’m not. None of us are.

It’s like we’re slipping into fascism, and no one is even batting an eye. Trump winning is just the latest sign that we’re headed straight for dictatorship. And all the rights we’ve worked so hard to protect? Gone. I’ve never felt so unsafe, so exposed. The government is taking everything away from us, and everyone is just sitting back and letting it happen. LGBT rights? Gone. Women's rights? Gone. Everything is being ripped away. And for what? So we can live in some twisted, authoritarian nightmare where nobody gets a say except the people at the top? No. Just NO.

It’s not just politics anymore. This is about survival. This is about whether or not we have a future. And right now, I’m not seeing one. People can sit there and pretend everything’s fine, but it’s not. It’s not fine. We’re losing everything, and I’m terrified we won’t be able to get it back.

Sorry for the rant. I just don’t know how else to process this. If anyone else feels like they’re about to lose it, I get it. I really do. Let’s try to stick together because I honestly don’t think we’re gonna make it through this alone.

Literally sounds like actual twitter posts I saw over the election, it's uncanny.

There is nothing more facepalm inducing than seeing libshits claim that the reason Gen Z men (White and Hispanic) voted for Trump was due to them being "brainwashed" by Andrew Tate or Sneako during quarantine.
They will never fucking learn, will they?

They pushed too hard. The men of our generation (white men, specifically) have been told our whole lives that we are the problem because we are white and male. There is a genuine sexism problem that goes on against men of our generation.

And you know what? Fuck these people. Nice job radicalizing an entire generation. You get what you fucking deserve, shitlibs.

 

[TroonsDid911]

Would it? You just said that he's costing the party big electorally, and there's probably plenty of Conservatives who would relish opportunity to get rid of him as well.

It would be like when Matt Gaetz gave Kevin McCarthy the boot

The non-confidence vote removes Trudeau as Prime Minister and triggers an election but it doesn't remove Trudeau as party leader of the Liberals. With someone as petty and shameless as Trudeau I could see him firing and sabotaging the careers of every single person who voted against him and still cling to power because he is a spiteful dictator. The Liberals will lose every riding and the next election and Trudeau still can't be fired as Liberal leader because the Liberals were stupid enough to not have rules in their party to oust the party leader. The conservatives and NDP and Bloc all have rules in their party that allow them to fire a leader if the party wants to.

 

[Verdun_Salient]

I am reading a thread on SpaceBattles asking if there is any silver lining. I consider jt a particularly telling thread on what they think

One of the most fascinating things about the election has been seeing people realize that yes, the other side can win in democracy. This has often been done with insults towards Trump voters as seen here






One guy said they were being insane talking about Project 2025, and got dogpiled





There was a thread derail talking about how the Democrats always compromise to the Republicans, but it is never enough for them




There was a part talking about how people are reporting Latinos to ICE



We got the standard TDS and insults





As a note, I consider it almost telling on how much hatred they have. I am not sure how to explain it. I'd call this place hostile at times, but barely any of the sheer hatred shown here

If it's a new rule for some reason that the USPG thread has to be in Happenings actually telling the users of it about such a rule would be a good idea.

Also pretty sure it was merged not deleted, from the looks of it.

My posts are gone, so no, it wasn't merged.

Imagine being this petty because an animal ate the watermelon labeled Trump instead of the watermelon labeled Kamala. I remember a year or two back the left was kvetching and bawling about how cruel it was that someone put a Trump sticker on a bear's tracking device thingy because animals should be left out of politics...
Oh well, you know what they say about the left and double standards.

They engage in magical thinking. Some of them actually believe this is why Trump won. When the Epic Rap Battles video came out people were sperging about how this side of the youtube thumbnail or this verse always predicted a winner (If you're curious until now the winner of the election has always been on the left side of the thumbnail and had the second verse, Trump was on the left side but Kamala had the second verse)
