And the White House sat on Trump’s insurrection for four fucking years.
The system as a whole failed us when it didn’t convict Trump on either impeachment.
You cannot convince me that Republicans wouldn’t have been rabidly screaming from rooftops that a Democratic President should be impeached if one did the same things Trump did while in office. And the sad thing is Democrats would have agreed and impeached him.
Republicans only care about holding on to power. Nothing else anymore.
And we as a nation just handed it to a candidate who wants to be ‘Dictator for a day’ as if any dictator has ever willingly relinquished power.
As someone in a non-traditional relationship, and who has two female children, I am fucking terrified.
I’m scared too. I just started hormone replacement therapy a few months ago, and found self-acceptance for the first time in my life. And also have a child, who’s a very sweet boy that will become a young man with misogynist assholes in power. That’s not the example I want for him.
I’ve been crying this morning. And I’m crying now.
I was planning on starting in the next couple of years myself, once I was financially stable enough to. I don’t know what to tell you or anyone else, but I think we’re dead.
The entire LGBTQ community is dead if we stick out at all.
Nobody’s advocating for that, but people like you were surely shoving lots of hatred themselves, for what good that did. It’s funny that even after achieving this result, you’re still just doubling down on spreading hate instead of having a bit of self-reflection for once.
So you like labelling people rather than know who they are personally? That will surely show people that you treat others that don’t agree 100% with you like a human and that you don’t just sow division everywhere you go.
Then, stop wasting your time. Why do you keep replying like you can’t help yourself? It’s not a good way to cope with the election results. Let’s both just stop this and find a better way to deal with this nightmare of a scenario.
No, it just simply doesn’t. Regardless of how many (how fucking depressingly many) people voted for him, how fucked this country is, no one deserves to live through a fascist regime. We don’t want housing just for the good homeless, we don’t think only women who are “responsible” should have access to abortions, we don’t think only Respectable Gays should have marriage rights. In the same vein, we shouldn’t want only the good countries, only the good populations, to be free from tyranny. 70 million votes for that asshat, 70 out of 350. This country doesn’t deserve this, because no one deserves this.
The only hope I have is that the Bell riots start soon and we can force change, but damn every time it seems we’ve hit bottom they break out a shiny new drill bit
This is the result of literally decades of planning from extremist groups on the right to bend America into a fascist theocratic dictatorship. Saying someone deserved to get attacked because the attack was successful might be peak victim-blaming.
The unfortunate reality is we choose this. There is no one else to blame but our own complacency.
Nah, fuck this mindset. I’m going to blame everyone who voted for the racist, homophobic rapist.
I’m also blaming propaganda from billionaires and Russia.
As well as the White House. Biden should have stepped down so we could have ran an actual primary.

Yep, yep, continue burying your head in the sand. Surely something will change if you just do the same thing next time.
No we should all spread hatred of Democrats since that was so fucking helpful this time.

I tagged you appropriately long ago. You’re showing you earned it

I like avoiding wasting my time on bad faith discussions with people I abhor

Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom before you can improve.
We hit rock bottom 8 years ago. This is miles under the bedrock.
The only hope I have is that the Bell riots start soon and we can force change, but damn every time it seems we’ve hit bottom they break out a shiny new drill bit
You don’t seem to get it. Things will never improve from here.
I tend to agree. But once you hit rock bottom there’s no where else to go except up
No, there’s always genocide and extinction.
Wouldn’t extinction be an up?
