Same with “I don’t vote” centrists who complain about Trans people in sports but don’t say a peep about ICE, DOGE, and everything else. They can go right to hell.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Anyone that's been a centrist over the last decade is cataclysmically stupid.

Riding the fence through what we've been experiencing is a coward braindead move.

A reminder that 2/3rds of eligible voters in America voted for Trump. 1/3rd voted for him, 1/3rds didn't vote.

Over 60% of eligible voters were 100% okay with Trump winning.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

Yup.

Trump can die and it'll be a great, great day.

Not gonna change anything. Americans are REAL, REAL stupid and REAL, REAL bigoted. That's not changing when he's dead. Volume might turn down a bit, but the stupid train is still on the stupid tracks going to Stupidville.

Idk, Ive often thought jail, homelessness, & work were big contributed to that 1/3 number that gets thrown around

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

Over 82 million Americans were either homeless, in jail, or working for weeks between early voting opened and election day?

That's a little difficult to believe. You know you can vote before election day, right? Like... Literally weeks prior?

I've been voting in Canada for 20 years. Never once have I voted ON election day.

Early voting is not available in every state.

Three states.

Care to explain how 82 million Americans live primarily in those three states so they had no option to vote early?

They said "contributed". There's also third party voters.

I don't buy that you should just vote for the lesser of two evils. Kamala was a shit candidate that I doubt she was ever expected to win. She was such a shit candidate she actually solidified my view that the two parties are colluding to serve corporate/Israeli interests and have the working class point fingers at one another.

Whenever I see an extremely pro party (left or right) comment online I figured there's an 80% chance that it's a propaganda bot and a 20% chance that its an idiot cause in real life everyone I talk to is disillusioned with the two major parties.

Over 82 million Americans didn't vote. No third party, nothing. Did. Not. Vote. Stayed at home.

75 million Americans voted for Trump.

Ah I see you don't understand the meaning of the word 'contributed'. That's alright then

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 1 points 33 minutes ago

Ah I see you don't understand the meaning of the words "Non-Voters". That's alright then

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I don’t buy that you should just vote for the lesser of two evils.

And that mentality is exactly why a felon rapist pedo dumbfuck fascist is the most powerful human being on the planet and absolutely fucking everything up.

Welcome to adulthood, where the name of the game is making rough but intelligent choices to minimize damage.

Hey bud, the Dems are pedos too. They're the same people. That's why none of them ever get held accountable. The rest of the class has it's pencils down and they're waiting for you.

You're stupid

Don't breed
