This is why America deserves everything it voted for this time around.
Conservative / fascist leaders deserve it, the rest of us do not. The kids who were too young to vote, the leftists who fight against fascism, and the workers who don’t have the time to follow politics do not deserve any of what is to come.
You had me until that last group.
If you opt out of participating, you deserve whatever happens without you.
We’re in this mess arguably because of all the people who chose not to participate.
The left cuts down their candidates and elected officials over any faults, while the right uplifts them regardless of any faults. Is it any surprise the Dems always look bad in comparison to an uninformed voter.
Young voters voted for Trump. Tons of kids support him: https://www.axios.com/2024/11/07/young-men-voters-trump-2024-exit-polls
Unionized workers had grassroots support for Trump: https://www.axios.com/2024/09/18/teamsters-endorsement-harris-trump-2024
Staunch democrats sat out, or protest voted: https://www.axios.com/local/detroit/2024/11/07/why-biden-outperformed-harris-throughout-metro-detroit
Ignorantia juris non excusat. Ignorance of the law excuses not.
America is objectively, measurably, ignorant, trapped in bubbles, and we collectively did little to lift each other out. We are going to face justice for it.
Can’t wait to see all the sad Pikachu faces when he guts union protections and outlaws public sector unions altogether. “Can’t wait”
A lot of people are going to suffer who didn’t vote for him. This is as callous as the fascists.
Not everyone voted for Trump, but even so, people don’t deserve pain just because they’re bad.
Stop this puritanical bs.
People that voted for bad things to happen don’t deserve bad things to happen?
Wut!?
No one “deserves” pain.
Sometimes you have to apply harm to stop greater harm, but the concept of “deserving” harm is disgusting.
No, but it is a democracy and so just how the racists had to put up with Biden, now everyone else has to put up with The Racist.
The people who voted for evil do.
The people who failed to vote against evil do, but less.
The people who voted against evil? No fuckin chance.
“America” is too wide a brush, but I get talking that way.
I guess the issue is that, assuming a turnout of 60% for simplicity, the undeserving third category you mention only makes up roughly 30% of eligible voters. Which means 70% of eligible voters are deserving of what’s coming to them (according to you). I acknowledge that throwing the whole country into the same bucket is not a fair and helpful simplification, but it’s becoming increasingly harder to resist the urge.
