A lot of people don’t understand that you can be critical of a political candidate while still supporting them.

Sir. This is the internet. Please keep your rational ideas to yourself.

I think that “rational” is the key word. People online can’t seem to have rational discussions.

Criticism of Biden quickly turns into a toxic hate fest, with rabid disagreements. How the heck are we supposed to see this as “ critical of a political candidate while still supporting them.”?

Meanwhile I try to say I like a lot of what he’s done, except for x, y, z, and get mobbed by a bunch of thugs with pipes and broken bottles. How can I take this as we’re saying the same thing?

in this case not of a specific candidate, but of the system itself that always fails to prevent fascists from gaining ground and always fails to present options that anyone but fascists like.

“We’re all going to come back together to beat Donald Trump”

I hope that’s true.

Same here, and the trouble is that even if we do, we have to keep a Republican out of the White House for the foreseeable future or democracy is done.

Abolishing the Electoral College so all the votes go to people instead of corn would be a good start.

It would pretty much solve the problem. The EC should have been abolished once technology made it unnecessary.

Hopefully they’ll calm the fuck down once Trump eventually keels over. I kinda doubt it, but hopefully.

I’m hoping they fracture when he does, since he has so many cultists that worship him. The GOP has really benefited from the “hateful bigots who don’t usually bother voting” demographic he pulls in.

A dead president, or an absent office is better than allowing Republicans to overthrow the country.

Complacency is how we got Trump the first time. Don’t just assume it will be fine - talk to your friends,talk to your family. Show them Project 2025.
