As FD Signifier said, put on your clown shoes.*
Bold of you to assume your vote will matter in the future.
Spoiler alert, it won’t. They were already alienating their base by playing the “both sides” card.
The shame is that they won’t care. These people will just find another scapegoat and punt the ball down the line.
That’s just it, I’m a white male, I know I’ll be comparatively fine. It’s not really me I’m worried about.
It already well on it’s way depending on your province. People have moved out of Quebec because of the intolerance going on there.
It’s not just that, people are acting like things are better in other countries. Like, name ONE country that has not gone off the deep end and ended up on the right recently. One major player. I’ll wait. There is not utopia waiting for you in those other countries because they don’t want you there and acting like you will be accepted as a refugee is foolhardy. The USA is a shit show right now, but we also don’t know the future. It looks bleak right now because of the information we have RIGHT NOW. If you want to move out of the country, be my guest, but don’t act like it’s going to automatically be better, it’s just going to be a different kind of shit show.
They haven’t done that… Yet. As FD Signifier said, “you can’t out-right the right”. Democrats screwed themselves in many ways this election, and because of how fresh it is everyone is looking for someone, or some group, to blame. The truth is that this has been a long time coming and the American failure to recognize that is was ACTUALLY led to this. Well, that and the fact that Harris was a black woman. Racism and misogyny hard carried this election term in addition to the unpopular policies Harris proposed. As unpopular as those policies were though, the number don’t show that the policies are what lost her the election.
I wish I could argue with you.
I wasn’t trying to scapegoat any party in particular. At it’s most fundamental level this was about racism and misogyny.
