It's not an excuse. It's reality.
People had two choices last election. Someone who offered more of the same, Harris, or someone who offered at least some sort of change.
They went with the person who offered at least some sort of change. Call them Nazi sympathizers all you want, I guess? Shaming and attacking people for their voting as being evil people isn't going to get them to come over to your side. If anything it will just make them dig their heels in.
I could promise to do nothing to you OR promise to stab you in the gut. If you choose the latter because you want “change” and don’t care about what it actually is then you’re just an idiot who shouldn’t be making decisions.
Everything was on the table and extremely obvious. If getting centrists on the right side of history is more dependent on making them feel good and special than on getting them to just make the obviously right choices then everything is already fucked and they’re just going to keep moving the goalposts as they see what they can get away with. Everyone who “just wants change” will never vote far left, only far right, and that’s pretty fucking telling.
If you’re on the fence when Donald Trump is one of the options there’s no fucking help for you and I’m not going to sit here comforting your awful decision so you can feel like a special little baby.
It was to you. Other people aren't you. What is obvious to you, isn't obvious to other people.
This is where you are failing to understand the issue. Other people are not you. They don't think like you do. They don't reason like you do. They are entirely different than you.
Be angry about it all you want. It won't change the facts that other people's votes, or non votes, count as much as yours and there isn't a thing you can do about it. But hey, it probably makes you feel like you're special, right?
Agreed entirely. Most people are so fucking stupid, they couldn’t even be considered conscious.
While it may SEEM most other humans have that trait, I’m not so sure any more. Most of us are just cancerous tumors; growing by consuming the host without thought about what that means for them at the end.
