What scares me the most about the US election is the tribalism. The fact that people have stopped caring about what politicians do or say, because it all comes down to “our candidate good, their candidate bad”.

This way of thinking is what has opened the door to dictators throughout history. And the problem is, people do not regret their vote until the dictator wins and starts taking away their freedoms — THEN they suddenly complain, THEN they “never supported the guy”, and then it is too late.

@randahl

What makes you think “tribalism” is occurring in a population other than djt supporters?

They comprise 17% of our population.

Do you see the rest of us waving giant flags or banners the size of a barn?

@Pagan_Animist @randahl there are in fact people driving around pickup trucks with giant flags that look exactly like trumpers except their flags say harris/walz. Not sure why but they exist.

(I’m 100% voting for the non-felon)

@reiterator @randahl

I’ll let you know when I see a barn painted Harris/Walz. ☺️

Here’s how each Pa county voted in 2020. Red for djt, Blue for Biden. I’m the center blue county, Centre County. We have State College with Penn State, that’s about the only reason we are blue.
