    50+% America, you’ll get what you wanted. Also those who didn’t vote will get what they deserve.

      Since only somewhere around 65% of people voted and Trump got almost half the votes that means approximately 2/3rds of Americans are at least okay with having Trump as president and fascists in power.

        Not everyone that didn’t vote supports this. Some people just couldn’t get the day off because they’re living day by day and couldn’t take a day off to wait in line for 5 hours at the one polling place in their city.

            Most of the US doesn’t, or you need a “valid” excuse, which usually doesn’t include working. I’m lucky to live in a state that does default mail in voting.

              Still, those are probably not enough to invalidate my argument

      You assume those who didn’t vote, would vote for Harris. An unfounded assumption

        Inaction makes you complicit. Not voting does not give you any moral high ground, especially when one of the people being voted for is a fascist. These people would rather let fascism run free and wait for a golden unicorn instead of making slow and steady progress with imperfect candidates.

        10 million less votes for Democrats and only 5000000 more votes for trump since last election. Yes I assume a large portion would have.

          In states where they don’t matter by in large. It’s a weird complaint to be honest, of people didn’t vote they either had a reason or weren’t engaged and that isn’t exactly their fault.

        I’m sorry, but if I completely skip evaluating Harris to make this easier… I would vote for a box of pizza before tRump.

        I think its ok if someone doesnt vote. I also think they forfeit their right to complain.

          Lol. How brave /s

          Show your true colors y’all! Finally, you can stop pretending you truly care about struggling Americans that don’t share the same values as you - coincidentally, exactly like your slightly more racist/white-supremacist neighbors

          Hopefully we can at least admit rural folks are absolutely correct in feeling like we hate them. I mean, that still won’t win us any elections but it’s a step in the right direction - one towards a more honest party

            By values, you mean supporting a violent and openly fascist political party whose main goal is to hunt migrants to deport?

            Hopefully we can at least admit rural folks are absolutely correct in feeling like we hate them.

            Lol, is that the same logic you apply to the civil war? The North just hated the South for their rural ways?

            I wouldn’t agree with what the person you are responding to says, because I don’t think anyone deserves not be ripped from their homes. But I can understand why people would wish unpleasant times to people who voted to do exactly that.

            Falsely equivocating all of that down to, “hating rural folks” for their country ways is inaccurate, ahistorical, and highly reductive.

        Understanding that people regularly vote against their own interest and then gleefully celebrate them doing so… You are also sounding real fucking evil bud.

          I don’t understand what you’re saying. I’m trying to do the exact opposite of celebrating anyone’s misfortune. That’s kinda gross, to me

          I know people that can’t even vote that are likely going to have to seriously consider what states they visit or worse. It’s wild that people that supposedly voted against it now support it because they want to feel good about themselves. Classic American shit, tbh

            Oh please, the specific criticism you brought up unprovoked has been repeated nearly exclusively by leftist accelerationists who are too busy virtue signaling to even bother to participate with electorial harm reduction.
