Fascism is taking over and people are saying that they are planning to do nothing and let evil triumph. If you intend to sit on your ass for the next 4 years, you’re in the way of progress.
I’m just some guy, you know.

He isn’t, but if you want something different from the same establishment bullshit that we’ve had for decades, he’s the only option.
If you’re on the right, you have the populist/fascist asshole you’ve always wanted.
If you’re on the left, you either vote for neoliberalism to protect yourself from fascism, or you don’t vote at all.
This time around, the left chose the latter. We’re fucking tired, and it’s the Dems that wore us out by never listening to a single fucking thing we asked for.
The Associated Press:
There’s that Republican talk again.
It’s the latest Fox news fake outrage story. Teachers are recognizing that in the wake of such a divisive election, taking the day after off is a good idea. No matter which side of the side you’re on, you’re probably going to be distracted. A day off from class is better than an unproductive day of class.
The Fox News angle is that college students are all crying because Trump won and are unable to function through day-to-day life, because they are committed to attacking education at every possible opportunity, even with misrepresentation and lies.
Look at OP’s comment history. Joined a month ago, and talks like a Republican. Don’t let these fuckers trick you with stupid questions.
What you’re doing is called concern trolling.
You love Trump, like an unhealthy amount, as many rabid Trumpers do. Other people despise him so much they need time to psychologically process what it could mean for their basic freedom and way of life having him in charge. After all, the President is about to be someone who expressly promised to take our freedoms away, and who has described himself as a dictator.
You are having trouble processing the fact that other people could hate Trump when you love him. Your mind is so permanently made in favor of him that the fact that anyone would be upset that he won is something you can’t comprehend.
So, instead of just coping with this fact yourself, you have come whining about it in public, but you’re framing it as a “I want these students to be more resilient and go to school anyway”, but what’s actually happening is you’re watching people who possess the empathy you lack help other people process this, and like any Conservative, you become belligerent and angry that people aren’t made to suffer more following your victory.
Even in winning you folks act like sore losers. It’s not enough that you get what you want, we need to fall in line and act like nothing fucking happened.
At least we didn’t shit and piss all over the capital.
How exactly does he terminate the constitution on day 1? I acknowledge that our constitutional protections are under threat, but he really doesn’t have the power to discard it, just to seek judges that don’t care about it.
Biden should pardon the entire prison population, except for J6 convicts and other Republican extremists, and then wish Trump “good luck”.
Democracy is participatory. If it isn’t your job, you can’t complain when it isn’t done to your liking.
They’re already tearing themselves apart, as planned.
Republicans know that without a strong Democratic party, they will remain in power indefinitely. Once they have control over everything, they can crush any movement that aims to challenge them.
Anyone thinking that the next 4 years is an opportunity for a third party is going to be horrified when they find out what’s really coming.
Honestly, Democrats should just en masse go full pro-gun, and push the “to protect ourselves from tyranny” narrative and fucking dare Republicans to disagree.
There’s also the matter that fascists aren’t going to obey the law, they will not only wield the law like a weapon. Resisting them is going to be considered criminal regardless, so make it count.
For thoose who don’t understand I’m a chronic emotional abuser, like I don’t outright threaten to kill myself but everyone around me knows I’m always on the verge to sucide. I’m legitimately a toxic horrible person that holds my friends hostage.
I know this is gonna sound crazy, but have you considered that you should stop doing that? If you’re deliberately acting suicidal to manipulate people, that’s fucked up, but it does tend to work to some degree. The reason everyone is so fake to you is because you’re fake to them. If you’re going to act like you’re always on the brink of suicide, so will others.
Why manipulate people to treat you in a way that you don’t want to be treated? That can’t be worth the time and effort.
You’re the psyop. You created the conditions for the way people act around you. You effectively manipulated the people around you to pity and infantalize you because you act like a wounded animal.
I’ve heard this argument before, but the primary that got us Biden was also a shit show where a candidate that was deeply unliked eventually became the nominee as other candidates strategically dropped out to make room for him.
I heard way fewer complaints about Kamala being selected to replace Biden than I ever heard about Biden being the nominee in 2020. Nobody felt like the primary had nominated the most popular candidate.
I also don’t buy the conspiracy theory that Biden always planned on dropping out, and deliberately did so after a chance for a Primary had passed to hand the nomination to Harris by default. That just doesn’t check out strategically. Biden is clearly in cognitive decline and they knew that he was basically unrunnable, but swapping out an incumbent is a risky move.
Good luck reading on mobile. They broke the cardinal rule: they messed with the scroll mechanic using CSS.
Ngl, Neoliberal Populism sounds bad.
University admins sent police after pro-Palestine protesters, not the Democrats. You folks talk just like right-wingers. “Everyone I don’t like is operating on behalf of the Democrats”.
They would vote for a white man, but not a Black woman.
Yes, famously anti-capitalist Conservatives…
