I wasn’t commenting on who voted for who (or who did or didn’t vote) … I was just commenting on the general stupidity of the American public who all allow, put up with, ignore or just generally accept as normal this circus show as their government.
I mean, I feel you, but also I feel like not enough people will vote when we get a chance because they didn’t last time. And if people won’t do something like walk into a building and mark a piece of paper, I have doubts they’ll do more than that. So yeah, plaster that fuckers face on everything. Have everyone look at his stupid ugly face until they do something about it.

Law of Large Numbers
LAW OF LARGE NUMBERS
LAW OF LARGE FUCKING NUMBERS
Sorry, but I want to scream whenever people try to say if just more people voted the election would have been different. You know what would change if more people voted? Practically nothing. The percentages would have been pretty much the same.
~65% of eligible voters voted last election. That is MORE than enough of a sample size for the Law of Large Numbers to come into effect, and you can try to talk about demographics, or suppression, or the psyche of people who don’t vote, but I promise you the Law of Large Numbers does not give a shit and the percentages would not change.
We have to face the fact that yes, over 50% of the US really did support Trump. You can not assume that non voters would fall anywhere else.
On the topic of enough people to vote, we don’t get a day off to vote. It isn’t a national holiday. People are already living paycheck to paycheck. We have some people paying for food in installments, for fuck’s sake. Assuming people can get to the polls, there are lines that don’t seem to end, and a finite time where they’re allowed to vote, sometimes not enough for those in line to actually cast a ballot. All this is assuming things are working WELL. There were so many issues with the last election, from bomb threats shutting down polling locations, locations just not getting offered in the first place, intimidating individuals standing nearby, I think I remember hearing at least one location running out of ballots, the list is long. I’m fortunate that my state does mail in voting, and even that is under attack by shortening the time we have to turn in our ballot. I agree, more people need to vote, but we also need to be sure they are actually able to vote. I’m not talking about ineligible individuals trying to cast ballots, but rather people who couldn’t or weren’t able to because of the bullshit tactics that, for some reason, go largely unpunished.
The voter suppression fight in the US is real and it’s getting to be a bigger and bigger problem thanks to the enabling Rs helping their autocrat to destroy democracy slice by slice. That will be a fight as long as the Donvict has any power. Not that I will give up fighting it.
They get what they deserve … let him plaster his dumb face over everything to just keep reminding every American just how dumb they all are.
Ah yes, all. We ALL voted for trump and have no issue with him. ALL of us.

Don’t worry it’s coming to a country like yours

You really showed me. I really showed how stupid I am by implying that not every American voted for this fascist.
First time is an anomaly, second time is a pattern. He IS the US, he is the animus of the US. He is you.
This is absolutely brilliant. I’m printing and framing this thread because my mind has been BLOWN.
