Eh. Fuck off. I really don't care anymore.

You chose this. You knew exactly what was at stake, you knew who Trump was beyond any shadow of a doubt, you knew he was going to fully enable Isreal to wipe your family off the face of the earth. You knew.

I fought all the bad faith arguments flying around here and beyond. All the "never genocide" bullshit. Every day, for the better part of a year.

But you played stupid fucking games. And now we all have to find out.

It sucks because people will suffer. Likely people I care about too. But this bleeding heart "liberal" has been bled dry. I can't muster any more fucks.

I'm with you bud. I honestly tried. Lesser of two evils, help everyone, people deserve safety nets. Well the people I was fighting to help overwhelmingly voted against all of those. I honestly feel for anyone who voted for the same things I did and lost, but anyone who didn't vote or voted to remove those protections I'm done feeling bad for.

Sorry grandma, you voted in the man who openly wanted to get rid of Medicare. Don't care anymore. You needed Obamacare but voted for the people who openly said they'd repeal it? Too bad, get some bootstraps.

Again, those who voted to protect those things I feel for and I still want to help, but I'm done trying to help those who openly push against me.

It's curious that these people never targeted the Republican position on Gazza, even though it was clear from the polls that Trump had a good chance of winning.

Liberals love to talk about how much their hearts bleed. But it was also liberals talking about how disruptive and criminal people protesting in black bloc were being last time Trump was in power. It was also liberals who were saying students protesting peacefully on campuses needed to be beaten and thrown in prison.

You lot don’t give a shit about anyone but yourselves. You use minorities as tokens and ways to sell merch. The downside to that is that when the republicans are doing pogroms these next four years, they’re gonna be going after the people who aren’t armed. And while leftists will always have the backs of our queer and trans brothers and sisters, democrats can figure out defense and mutual support on your own. Because we remember who was really there for us last time, and it wasn’t you. It will never be you.
