The KKK’s choice.
The Taliban’s choice.
The Kremlin’s choice.
Let’s not pretend here. Over half of America voted for him this time. Last time almost half of America voted for him.
This is America. You can blame russia, you can blame whoever, but still the end of the day this is America and Americans fault.
Go talk to the 60% of white people in this country who voted for him and make them realize that they are idiots and racists. Then maybe you’ll get a change.
Nope, less than half of eligible voters did in fact vote for Trump. This is quite less than half of America in addition.
63% of eligible voters voted in 2024 and 49% of the popular vote went to Orange Hitler.
155000000 out of 244000000 voters voted roughly. About 76000000 voted for the orange pedo, which is about 23% of the USA’s population of 336000000.
Not half the population. Using approximates:
US population: 345 million
Can vote: 245 million
Did actually vote: 156 million (63%)
Voted drump: Just over half (78 million or 50.5%) of those that voted
US population who voted for tangerine: Around 22%, or 1 in 4
US population who could vote and did vote for tangerine: 31%, or 1 in 3
Yeah propaganda exists but the point is that this is already who the US has shown themselves to be. It is and has been a racist oligarchy for as long as I’ve been alive, and most likely longer.
The second Obama won you had shitheads burning efficiency of him or hanging him from trees.
My point is it’s easy to blame Russian interference, etc. It’s harder to look inwards and realize that oh hey, this country is actually just not thatbgreat and we’ve been living on lies for the last 80 years.
It is deeply, deeply racist and always has been. It is deeply oligarchical, and always has been.
There is more in common with modern day russia than there is with any civilized 1st world country in western Europe.
No, you can blame propaganda telling those voters in safe states to stay home. So even tho Trump won the electoral college handily, those stupid fuckers fell for the crap because they’re fucking lazy and gave him both houses of Congress and a slew of right wing state level govts.
Non-voters paved the path for dicktaster Trump because so many people bitched and moaned about votes “not counting” (yes they fucking do, 99.99% of races aren’t the president) and propagandists picked up on that and amplified the hell out of that message.
Note: no evidence, just my own angry rant about my own observations of this last election
I don’t think it’s as bad as people think. We have all believed, believe, and will believe misinformation. It’s a part of being human.
You are prompted to check at some point; someone tells you you’re wrong, you are curious, things feel incongruous, whatever. You find out you’re wrong and you update your shit. Easy, life goes on.
But certain people seem to actively shop for rhetoric that will look good on their shelves. You tell them they’re wrong and they dig in. They usually have no filter and say their ideas out loud even if it denigrates others.
It’s like propaganda is a chemical being injected that binds with cancer cells so you can more easily see them with the naked eye. The chemical touches everything but it “reacts” with the cancer.
Sure that’s what they say, but actions speak a lot louder than words.
I am not willing to take any political radicals word for it.
Thank you for saying it. A steady 30% Americans are pathologically dumb enough to drag the rest of the country into their own private hellscape
These assholes care about what happens literally halfway around the world, than the bonfire happening in their own backyard. I’m still processing the level of stupidity, apathy and plain lack of awareness on display. Now I’m guessing they’ve taken to criticizing social media posts to vent their virtue signals.
And Qanon’s choice which is so weird because they claim to protect the children but it’s their guy who’s the one who’s not protecting our children.
There does seem to be lots of evidence that supports this:

It’s not weird to be self-contradicting when you are are solidly established as being full of shit. It drives me nuts for example when people say that it’s strange that Trump said X but is doing Y. It’s perfectly predictable, it’s not strange. Know your source and set your expectations.
