    That’s their tough shit. They’re the ones who are going to suffer the most from climate change and Trump’s economic policies. 78% of young people who were most concerned about the economy voted for Trump? Yeah, enjoy the next 4+ years, you stupid, ignorant, idiotic fucks.

      Hey lady who voted for Trump — better hope you don’t get an ectopic pregnancy, or have a gay or trans child.

      Economies and foreign policy are fragile things - I doubt the damage he does (has and will) will be undone any time soon. Both rely on trust, in one way or another, and that’s far easier to torch than rebuild.

      We all will suffer for it.

    Yes, we know things are bad, but they’re worse too.

    Conservatives tend to have more kids than liberals. Maybe that has something to do with it. Seems to me, people are often heavily influenced by their parents when it comes to politics.

      This is what I was thinking too. Not just conservatives but the less educated, less informed which lean conservative.

      It’s also a vicious repeating cycle. They get elected, and they are the primary ones who gut education, and force religion into the masses as much as they can. Thereby keeping the masses dumb and creating new generations of the same.

      Fuck this makes my cynical. How the hell do we even compete against this?

      Democrats’ outreach to young voters is “shut up and do as your elders order you to. We’re never going to listen to your concerns.”

    Many Americans are just uneducated tools and the worst thing about it is they don’t even realise how dumb they are.

      That’s a feature. When the SHTF their rulers will just blame another group. It works so well.

        Obviously, if you wanted an educated population you wouldn’t put them in debt for the rest of their lifes for getting it.

        Also, your education system seems often to be ruled by the most ignorant and hateful people they could find.

        Uneducated people are easy to control and influence, as you can see and the same shit is happening here too, maybe not to that extent but still.

    Congratulations!

    You’re about to be thrown off your parents’ healthcare and/or possibly stripped of your citizenship and deported depending on your skincolor or last name!

    You won!

      The archetype of “Surely they won’t eat my face”…

      When people spew hateful rhetoric against your kind, it’s safer to assume they’re serious. Even if they’re not, they might inspire others who are.

    They let him do it, too. Because he’s a celebrity and all that. So much for the sisterhood.

      The narrative that either canidate “won” voters needs to be dispelled as the propaganda it is.

      LESS people voted for both canidates, the same people who voted last election voted the same again, and more sat out.

      Nobody gained support

      The Republicans lost like 5mil who probably died in the last 4 years, and the Democrats lost like 11mil older white men and women who didn’t want to vote for Harris after voting for Biden
