With depression, I’ll take every win I can get.
If that is just a small reprieve from the existential dread of a potential Trump win…?
Or the anxiety over needing to vote today, dealing with the crowds, getting my ballot cast, even with the rest of the shit storm on the horizon…
I’ll still take what I can get for now.
I’ll be there when I’m called upon but know that some of us are already fighting our own battles.
This one is over for me at least, and for now that’s enough, but tomorrow is another day.
After Trumps assassination attempt, allowing you to buy as many guns and as much ammo is as you want is not a certainty.
In reality I would do what most people would and just keep to myself…
Just thought I would add some comedy to the thread 😎
“Im sorry, but you are fucking stunning… if I told you you had an amazing body, would you hold it against me?” cue cheesy smile
It’s probably not going to get me anywhere but it might make her laugh, or at least not file sexual harassment charges for speaking to her… lol
Thank you for taking the time to write that.
I generally agree the current system is broken, both sides have no interest in doing what’s best for humans.
I came here not trying to convince anyone that Harris is good, but that Trump is worse.
I read articles just yesterday about Trump talking to Netanyahu almost every day to undermine any talks that may have stopped Israel’s genocide.
Between that and the fact that Trump is spouting fascist rhetoric, in my opinion, he is worse than Harris.
Did you have a point? I understand the societal construct.
I also understand that sometimes you have to play the game long enough to understand how to dismantle it.
Not because figuring out the game is hard, but because you have to get enough people to on your side to make sure you succeed.
Please, enlighten me then, how allowing Trump to get into office is the better alternative?
Oh, you don’t support Red or Blue?
Tell me how we get someone that’s not either of these fucks into the White House?
I’ll look into those.
I agree that both sides are never going to actually do anything to make life for the “rest of us” better.
Im tired of the political show both sides do where they are “weekend at bernies”ing the constitution,
Unfortunately I remember all of the bad things Trump did while in office, and I’ve heard enough bullshit from him this time around that I feel like his desire to become a dictator is enough to speak up about preventing his ascension to power again.
The message I’ve been trying to convey in all of these posts is that if Trump wins we may not get a chance to vote someone better next time.
I don’t agree with Harris’ stance on Israel, I don’t agree with lots of things going on.
I just want to have the chance to change it eventually, especially as the Boomer generation dies out from old age.
I agree we need a socialist revolution. I just feel like it will be easier to organize something like that if we still have a democracy to influence.
Where I live, the last several elections have seen every county go Red. It doesn’t even matter how I vote.
That being said I have also voted third party the last few elections.
Do I want the genocide to end? Fuck yeah I do, but I also don’t want it to start here in America.
In the current political landscape, if you don’t vote Red or Blue you are giving your vote to whichever way your state swings.
Even if I agree both sides are shit, I don’t want to allow the narcissist, racist, xenophobic, fascist, felon, wanna be dictator to get back in power and dismantle our democracy.
I would like us to swing so far left it makes Rupert Murdochs head spin, but I’ll take the not-fascist if that’s all I can get.
Oh I understand, but Regan repealed many laws that were holding corporations in check. Since Regan things have exponentially gotten worse.
I agree wholeheartedly, I am in full support of full autonomy no matter what.
You’ll have to ask Obama why he didn’t. I can’t control political asshats, just like political asshats shouldn’t be controlling abortion rights.
I’m campaigning against Trump, not for Harris.
If we had a third option that had an actual chance at winning I would be singing their praises and campaigning hardcore for them. Unfortunately if it’s not Red or Blue most of the population doesn’t pay attention.
The mental gymnastics you’re doing to paint me as a genocide supporter is baffling.
I am against all war, all killing, but I’m a nobody and can’t fix any of this. I can only point out that a vote for 3rd party candidates are almost a wasted vote in todays political climate, and allowing Trump in office will be a worse outcome than Harris
