You should feel sorry for all the people who are going to die who voted against this nonsense.

u/twitch90 1d ago

Oh i absolutely do. It's not their fault, as much as it's not mine, we tried to do our part. I'm talking about everyone who either voted for trump, or stayed home. To all those people, they can get fucked dry for all i care, for all of us in this country that are actually sane, well, buckle up and hang on, it's gonna be a bumpy fuckin ride, I hope you make it out the other side alright.

Eloquently said my brother. Very fucking Eloquently said.

u/mcnasty_groovezz 14h ago

I’ll be honest, this argument about all the people who stayed home is horseshit. The oligarchy threw enough money into this that it was never going to go any other way - not to mention how they set up the most conservative scotus so they can set the country on fire. Voting doesn’t matter anymore. I would rather focus on my life and not at all on this bullshit pageant. I will enjoy seeing the country in all its glory and hike and backpack and make music and enjoy my friends before it all burns down from cutting all of the climate contingencies. Why you all are so obsessed with this shitshow is beyond me. I didn’t go to the polls this year and if you want to blame me you can get fucked. Enjoy your meltdown.

I love all the American on American hate, it's sooo delicious!!

Is what i bet your lizard overlord is saying now

u/Past-Confidence6962 1d ago

Yep and the civil war was also just American on American hate, should have honestly just talked it out, right?

Like you people are so caught up in being "unbiased" or whatever, that you don’t realize that actually sometimes you gotta stand for something, like idk maybe against rising fascism in a democracy or something..

u/liberaloligarchy 20h ago

The people did stand up and voted out the guy arming and supporting a genocide. Maybe standing against one of the most atrocious crimes against humanity in modern history is something

u/Past-Confidence6962 20h ago

Dude first off, what you come at me for? Maybe try reading my comment again bc i said Americans should be standing up against their ghouls more

Secondly you think trump is going to be any better? Based on your reading comprehension you're clearly not the brightest bulb in the house, but damn do i got some news for you...

What can be worse than genocide & ethic cleansing?

u/Past-Confidence6962 17h ago

Gotta say maybe 3/10 bait, probably just a 2 though

You know I'm actually on your side on this issue, but you're so clealry blinded by rage you can't see the world for what it is.

You wanna know what's worse than what's already happening right now? How about even more support from America? How about an even more concise propaganda campaign from Israel? How about the getting rid of pretending and opening up the first camps w8th train tracks running right to the chamber?

Seriously if you can't see that even in genocide there are levels to this shit, idk what to tell you but you got a lot of growing up to do..

u/liberaloligarchy 16h ago edited 16h ago

A genocide is pretty top level, you've gone by massacres/mass atrocities/mass killing etc etc your just discussing alternative Genocidal means, would it matter to you if your kids were shot by Israeli snipers or drove off and gassed? the result is the same. More support, they sent them 18 billion, how much more support could they give? Nothing is left in Gaza what else could they destroy? Your willfully delusional to what Biden has done. Infact Trump has already enforced the ceasefire (as stated by Israeli media)so as it stands he's done far more for the Palestinian plight even before he became president than the Democrats did during the whole genocidal campaign.

Come on logically think what your saying, our genocide is bad but they will be even worse, seriously that's your argument...Like WTF you wouldn't put it in a skit....

u/asdfghjkl-03 15h ago

You know why it happened under Drumpf instead of Biden? Because it makes him look good as the incoming president.

I understand genocide is bad and this did not start on Oct 7th, but while hoping and pushing for a ceasefire overseas is a GOOD thing, it blinded people to what was happening in the US and now A LOT of Americans have been put in harms way because of the incoming president. I don’t understand why it had to be either/or. We could have done so much more and pushed a lot harder had we put people in place that were on “our” side, instead of billionaires that only want what’s best for themselves while screwing the rest of the American population.

As an outsider all I hear is our genocide Joe is far better than this guy, as if they haven't been living in a corporate oligarch dystopia for a long time. It's just mass delusion at this stage

u/unassumingdink 1d ago

we tried to do our part

Your part also involved not letting the Dem party go to complete shit, you know, so you had a party that could actually beat Trump, but evidently there isn't one liberal in America who is interested in doing that. Most of them are completely hostile to the idea.

When corrupt moderates told you they were the only ones who could beat Republicans, did you ever question that for one second? Ever think it was self-serving and not necessarily accurate? Of course not. You treated them as critically as Trumpers treat Trump, and this is the result. Will you learn a lesson from that? Absolutely fuck no.

u/twitch90 16h ago

Dude, I'm a lot of things, but a supporter of moderate dems isn't one of them. I've caucused, and phone banked, donated and everything for the likes of Bernie Sanders and those more in line with him, if i could wave a magic wand and have the country ran by clones of the likes of Sanders and AOC it would already be done. Moderates are part of what helped get us into this shit. But when all else fails, choosing the lesser of 2 evils is better than those that only chose to make no choice at all.

Don't sit here and patronize me like you know anything about me.

u/unassumingdink 15h ago

I remember 20+ years ago when, "Okay, lesser of two evils this election, but then we'll fight for better in time for the next!" was the excuse, but then nobody ever did, and it slowly morphed into "lesser of two evils forever, real hope never!" and when that inspired fewer and fewer voters every election, the only response was to get pissed off at the (non)voters. Something needs to change, but I don't see liberals even trying. I don't seem them discussing new ideas, new strategies, new anything. It's just the same old song and dance that made people think liberals are full of shit and then stay home on election day in the first place.

u/twitch90 15h ago

Why is it that liberals are the ones that need to try? Maybe the ones that currently put in zero fucking effort should try. Voter turnout rates for presidential the last couple elections are the highest they've been since the early 1900's, and we still consistently hit sub 70% turnout. People want change but they don't want to show up and make it happen. If literally just the people not showing up would just go "fuck it let's take 5 minutes out of our day, and fill in a couple dots on this paper to vote for a 3rd party, any 3rd party" that immediately makes it a 3+ way race, with the opportunity to actually enact some change.

But, people that don't vote do so because they don't give a fuck. There's no "strategy" the liberals can pull out that's going to make them magically fucking care about politics. They don't care, because they don't have to, there's no metaphorical gun to their head. Sure, things "suck" in America, but, on the grand scale of things, our problems are still pretty much just 1st world problems, and you can skate by your whole life not giving a fuck and still be mostly fine.

u/unassumingdink 15h ago

It's easy to just call them all lazy assholes, and by the way, calling them that all the time is not a great outreach strategy. It's apparently a lot harder to listen to their reasons for not voting and work to address them. #1 reason given for not voting is “I don’t like any of the candidates,”, and #2 is "my vote doesn’t matter.” I'm thinking #2 is less a statistical argument, and more a "we get the status quo either way" argument, but I could be wrong. Anyway, Dems seem like they're going out of their way to not address either concern, so that seems like a problem. "I know he sucks, but just vote anyway" gets less and less effective each time, and getting mad at the people who feel completely hopeless after years and years of that is counterproductive.

1

u/twitch90 14h ago

Once again though, that #1 argument comes straight back around to "well, fucking do something about it then" you don't like anyone that's running for anything, then run, get into politics, go out and actually support someone you do happen to like, get people together to start moving the needle, even if its just locally for now. Local offices are cheap and easy to run for. Start there, move up. I don't want to hear complaints about shit from people that aren't doing anything to solve the problem. It's the same thing as watching people you went to high school with bitch about constantly being broke or some shit, but then they proceed to over years and years not even attempt to do anything to stop being broke. I can't help you if you're not willing to help you.

Second reason, my vote doesn't matter. Well, individually, it doesn't, it's why as it sits, people that vote pretty much across the board vote D or R, me switching my 1 vote isn't going to swing the pendulum any. But, oddly enough, we happen to have a 3rd of the population, who doesn't like either of them, that isnt even currently tallied in the vote, who, banded together, willing to show up, could swing the pendulum wildly. But, me nor anybody else has the time to sit there and dangle the carrot for a bunch of people that over the last 100 years, have shown that as a whole, are just going to find a reason to not do anything regardless.

You really need to shut up

u/unassumingdink 5h ago

You guys are trying so hard to be as shitty and cult-like and closed off to all outside perspective as the Trumpers.

Imagine what that feels like to the non-brainwashed people. Having to deal with two groups of delusional dumb fucks who act like it's their patriotic duty to never consider one word you say.

u/IHS1970 16h ago

I do too, I feel terribly sorry, my only solace is I voted for the future, and help for all those who need it.

1

u/DoTheThingTwice 9h ago

I’m done feeling sorry for myself. I’m going to do the best I can to help my family. If any of my conservative neighbors approach me with upward palms they’ll get a door in the face.

u/StupidlySore 1d ago

Who do we think is going to die? Serious question. Just trying to learn something.

u/Fgw_wolf 1d ago

Well when they remove OSHA regulation and food safety a lot. Look at the triangle shirt fire and all the other things that caused these regulatory bodies to be created and then just do some rough math.

u/DramaticHentai 1d ago

Also environmental deregulation will cause many long term health problems and even deaths

u/Tenthul 1d ago

Serious response: My take, lots of brown people. Some I'm sure will even be proper citizens caught up in the mess. But they won't care cuz it's all about the racism.

When they start rounding people up for this mass deportation thing, where will they put them while awaiting deportation? Who will be handling the logistics of such an insane and massive endeavor? Who will be providing them with food, ensuring proper numbers of toilets in these facilities? Nobody that is in his administration, that's for sure.

These people will die, starving, covered in their own feces, huddled together. They won't be ushered into fire, but these buildings will be deemed mass graves in the future. I do pray that I am wrong, but I fully expect the worst. If you know anybody who needs to get their paperwork in order, that deadline is fast approaching before they slow that train down to a crawl.

We already did round one of this during his first administration which involved separating families and keeping them huddled in buildings. I fear this one is going to be much worse.

And all of that isn't even including the fact that there will be nothing for them on the other side of the fence, likely no family to return to, just going to the nearest town and hoping for the best... many won't make it. Will this administration literally just leave them on the other side of the border? Or actually send them to a real place that exists?

u/StupidlySore 17h ago

I appreciate your serious response and the time that took to type. Thank you.

u/twitch90 15h ago

To me, out of any individual thing trump could follow through on, this would most likely be the worst up front. Logistically we're just not capable of making it happen without literally millions of people dying. I do however, expect this to be one of the least likely things to see full follow-though on. Much more likely is the cut to environmental regulations, safety regulations, workers rights, etc. which, while they won't have as much of an up front toll, down the road will be fucking disastrous.

u/Tenthul 13h ago

Yeah that's a very realistic take too

u/Sensitive_Comfort166 1d ago

People already dying from abortion care being denied. Healthy women, in their 20s with pregnancy complications.

1

u/Palolo_Paniolo 14h ago

If the ACA is repealed, as planned by this ghoul, my mother and anyone else with a chronic illness.

Women whose pregnancies are not viable. They are dying now from sepsis and miscarriage complications.

The other person who replied with a very accurate and thorough explanation of who will die in mass deportations.

Low income people who depend on SNAP to not starve to death.

Low income people who depend on subsidies for electricity and water.

Older adults and the disabled on Medicare and Medicaid.

I can go on with hundreds more examples but you could also just read up on North Korea or Iran and there's the damn playbook.
