Any that, ladies and gentlemen, is the nascent core of the American Sturmabteilung.

That’s a really healthy and rational way to unpack the situation. I’ll have to give it some more thought. For what it’s worth, thank you for sharing that.
For real they should have just straight up picked Walz as the nominee. He was WAY better at connecting with normal people than Harris was. And he was a white dude, which in America, translates to “a viable candidate”.
Oh yeah I remember. And the weaponization of tax code against blue states.
And falls onto two very inconveniently placed bullets, resting tips up on the sidewalk, with the back of his head
your body my choice
Is apparently a thing that some shitty psycho school boys have started saying to school girls in some parts of the country
I do understand what you’re saying. But at the same time, the foundation of the premise you’re presenting begs the question “do I still consider this society worth saving”? And quite frankly, I can no longer give an unambiguous “yes” to that question. THAT is what I mean when I say the result of this election has made my sense of misanthropy spin wildly out of control.
Yeah but we have never done that to a sitting governor of a state that’s also the 5th largest economy in the world before, so that’d be a bit of a new bridge to cross
And then Trump will use the insurrection act to (inappropriately and illegally) deploy the army against the CA national guard, and then we have a civil war.
I don’t think you understand how much of a hard-on the far right has for dictating from the barrel of a gun.
Good luck to you, friend. I hope you and your family can stay safe.
As an American, it’s hard to describe how fucking angry and aghast I am at both my countrymen and our one not-overtly-fascist party. I’m right there with you.
Yeah, that’s the other thing that baffles me. Like, don’t get me wrong - I wish it wasn’t the case, but the American electorate is clearly racist and sexist. So what does the DNC do? Nominate (or really, designate) a non-white lady. 🤦♂️
I mean… yes and no. Pretty much exactly the same voted for Trump this time compared to last time. 11 million less people voted for Harris compared to Biden in 2020. This was a lot of things, but it was much less of a GOP victory than it was a DNC loss. Once again: world fucking champions at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Their opinion is whatever makes the shareholders the most money
But like… not /s.
I mean… I think the message is pretty fucking clear, especially when you consider voter count for Trump barely fucking moved, but fully 10 MILLION less people showed up for Harris compared to the last election. People are completely sick of the often meaningless platitudes and lack of action from the DNC. The corporate capture of the party is obviously catastrophic to their electoral chances. In terms of corporate friendliness, there’s actually almost zero difference between the two parties.
I’m pretty convinced that inside of a year, Trump is going to try to use the DoJ and various other agencies to specifically target CA in a ton of fucked up ways, and that it might ultimately be a dynamic that sparks a serious movement to secede. Which would of course spark CW2 under Trump.
This includes specifically targeting Newsom and trying to figure out a way to politically imprison him. This will be the American version of the Navalny/Putin conflict, which ended up with Navalny dying in a Siberian gulag.
Doesn’t matter, the incoming department of education will make sure that will become a nationwide policy
I’m going to point and laugh at you when you realize that things are actually becoming an order of magnitude worse, and you finally understand that you’ve been pushing false equivalence the whole fucking time.
Jesus fuck I hope Ramaswamy gets deported in this insanity. It would be hilariously appropriate.
