Like all other Trump voters who are affected by his policy, they'll find a way to blame it on the Democrats.

Fascists are incapable of self-reflection.

You admit that running an actual progressive instead of a pro-fracking genocide apologist would be better, yet you think that admitting the weakness of our fascist “allies” isn’t excusable?

Make it make sense.

Big difference between "Dems ran a weak campaign and are feckless out-of-touch morons" and "Liberals are part of a duopoly conspiracy to move everything rightward and things only get worse, please ignore that we haven't been moving continually rightward since the induction of the current two-party system"

I had someone tell me the other day that the US was more fascist in mid-2024 than in the 1920s.

People often believe what confirms their pre-existing beliefs without regard for truth.

Would've helped. Still doesn't excuse the "BOTHSIDES" game on the eve of literal fascism.

Drained. Very drained.

He's partially right.

Unfortunately, I think the bigger issue is that a majority of Americans are fascists or indifferent to fascism.

“But are there not many fascists in your country?"

"There are many who do not know they are fascists but will find it out when the times comes.”

God, if only we hadn't voted for the Democrats. Then things would really have improved.

"Don't you remember how hyperbolic we were about McCain and Romney?"

No, I remember exactly what I said about Romney. That I feared his administration would bring in decreased workers' rights, a damaged economy, and damage positive US influence on the world stage.

God, I hate these fuckwits trying to play 'Trump is just another Republican' games. In 2016, maybe it was forgivable in a stupid kind of way. Not now.

There was no reason to let it get this bad

I'm sorry to everyone not in the US. The coming years will have American influence exercised in the worst possible ways. I wish I had more to give. Please stay strong, and preserve your own democracies while you can.

Utterly bizarre. I expected Trump might squeak out an electoral win, but the popular vote as well? Thanks everyone who stayed the fuck home. You sat by as fascism was ushered in to the US.

"There wasn't a no genocide option, so I decided the more genocide option was fine."

The lives of minorities aren't worth a handful of minutes to tankie fucks.

Harris’s people are confident. The Trump campaign is panicking

God, I hope they know something we don't. I feel like I'm gonna pass out. Or throw up.
