MODERATORS
The people who flooded the subreddit with sorry are fucking dumb.
And when you blame all Americans, this is what you sound like:
See they are actually 2 very different situations, because only 30% of German voters voted for the Nazis, whereas 50% of America voters voluntarily got off their arses to cast a vote for Trump (i.e. vote for a sexual abuser, and a platform of division and hatred) .......
Approx. 17.3 million people voted for the nazis in 1933, total population was 67.7 million, for 25.5% of the population.
Approx. 77.3 million people voted for trump in 2024, total population was 340.1 million, for 22.7% of the population.
No, the fascist gained power here with even less of a mandate than the nazis.
263 million Americans decided they didn't care enough to vote against a convicted sexual abuser running their country...
Yes, we have a disenfranchisement problem in the US. Between voter rolls being purged, people losing their right to vote due to felonies, gerrymandering out the ass, voter ID and other such nonsense trying to stop legal votes, and purposeful locking down/ limiting of voting places, it's honestly impressive so many were still able to vote. Doesn't change that what you said was wrong.
And it's 188 million, unless you think a vote for Harris wasn't voting against Trump.
Yes that's a problem but you directly asserted that a larger percentage of Americans voted for it than Germans did in the past which is flatly wrong. Interesting that you didn't even acknowledge that whatsoever
