    I may not have voted, but I know for a fact I would never vote for the diaper.

    By not voting at all, you cemented Trump's victory.

    You don't get to say "well I wanted it to be different" now.

    Do better next time. Do something next time.

    No, I didn't cement any victory, I literally said I didn't vote. The voters cemented his victory, not me.

      Sorry to anyone living in the fascist dictatorship that is the US. Its clear that youve lost your democracy.

      Its sad how much this sentence damages all democracys around the world. The fact these words have been made true is putins greatest victory. Putin aside, americans played a bigger role in giving up their own liberty. That is even more disgusting.

      Yes, it's definitely our fault they rigged the election.

        A third did not vote for him. The popular vote was something like 51 to 48, which is insanely close. And a record number of people didn't even vote.

        It's more like 1/6 voted for the asshole, and then the dems gave up the win before the night even ended.

        Not voting was tacitly supporting Trump.

          Has it ever crossed anyone's mind, that those of that didn't vote, was usually because we didn't approve of either candidate?

          I never approved of orange baby, plain and simple.

          Kamala was cool though, looking to help people and not deceive them, and I just might have voted for her.

          But even though I have no problem with a female president, she would have too many world stage problems with countries and groups that don't respect women at all.

          So, seeing both as a risk, why would I have voted for either? Like, why did Pete Buttiguieg drop out?

          That's the real question, what forces in play made my dude Pete drop out? I sure as hell would have voted for him!

          "I didn't like either, so I did nothing" is such a bullshit excuse...

          Like it or not, we have a two party system and this was the worst possible time for anyone to decide to do nothing. Non-voters are just as complicit in what's going on now because they chose to do fuck all when it actually mattered... I hope the righteous objection through inaction was worth it, because people are dying as a result now.

            A lot of people didn't vote for him. A lot of people didn't vote for democrat either. A growing number of people are voting for third parties now. Not enough to sway the vote, but enough to make a statement.

            I think, in my lifetime, we will see a third party finally elected. The leading parties just aren't cutting it anymore.

            Yeah, the 3rd party voters are complicit in Trump's actions, as are those who didn't vote in protest.

            When one candidate straight up says they'll be a dictator on day one, anything but voting against them is supporting their actions.

                There's not going to be a next election. Democracy in the US died on January 20th.

                    I hear you, the issue for me is that a third of your country people voted for the cunt, another third didn't care enough not to vote against the cunt, which leaves a large majority of Americans complicit in this - enough in my view to effectively use the term as a blanket reference to most people in the country.

                    Speaking on a more granular level, I wish you well and the best of luck - but the majority of your population can go fuck themselves.

                    Bombing Iran and letting Israel dictate American foreign policy are two things with strong bipartisan support.

                    Hillary Clinton campaigned in 2008 on the promise to bomb Iran. Biden couldnt even bring it over himself to enforce a demand for Israel to no starve Gaza to death and let Netanyahu humiliate him in public multiple times. And Biden/Clintons are the ultimate Democrats establishment.

                      You gotta get in the building first. Back in 2016, me and a friend went to vote. I would have voted Vermin Supreme (legit candidate no less), and my buddy planned on writing in Batman.

                      We stood in line for around 2 hours. For about the last half hour of waiting it was raining. Around half of everyone knew the weather forecast and had an umbrella, including us.

                      They closed the voting place (library) down at 8pm sharp, and the cops told everyone in line to go home. We were probably 150~200 people back in line.

                      We all waited that long, even in the fucking rain, only to be ordered to leave?!

                      If it matters (which it probably does), our state doesn't have early voting, you get one day to do it and that's it.

                      Wait 2 goddamn hours, partly in the rain, only to get shut down with around 200 people or so waiting to vote?!

                      Sooo.. I've never had a chance to see the inside of a voting facility. Not for lack of trying though.

                        I don't care. You did this.

                        Drag every dumb American leftist that was here during the election claiming this exact thing, or that Harris' support of Israel was too much and Trump wouldn't do the same. Collaborationists one and all. May as well have given the order today.

                        You live with that now. And as it continues to get worse I sure hope someone in your life slaps the self-serving excuses right out of you so it dawns on you, because you will have to stew in this the rest of your life.

                        You are the enemy, just as much as the average noncommital fascist was in the mid-20th century. You are a cautionary tale for some kid studying history in a century, assuming we get to have kids studying history in a century despite your best attempts.

                          Read my other comment, I tried in 2016, definitely wasn't going to vote for orange. I never got to see the inside of the voting place.

                          After waiting around 2 hours, they shut down and cops ordered everyone remaining in line to leave at 8pm. There were probably around 200 people outside still waiting to vote..

                                  That theory works great in hindsight, but before the election the orange turd was promising to stop wars, not start them.

                                  Sure we all know he's a liar now, but before the election, going on their campaigns, how could anyone be sure which track would actually have more bodies in the future in that Trolley Problem.

                                  You can't predict the future, so that's like presenting the Trolley Problem as if the switch is 10 miles before the tracks split.

                                    Oh, no, you're not.

                                    You're a speck of the nameless hordes in a rogue superpower. A collaborationist in a fascist nuclear state.

                                    You have zero relevance as an individual. You are, fundamentally, just a small part of a big problem.

                                    I have no obligation to care about your "individuality". I care about your victims. Which exist. You have real, human victims now. And I really hope if you're being honest about your self-righteous denials throughout this thread, that it at least triggers some self-awareness about that.

                                      Read my other comment, I tried in 2016, definitely wasn't going to vote for orange. I never got to see the inside of the voting place.

                                      After waiting around 2 hours, they shut down and cops ordered everyone remaining in line to leave at 8pm. There were probably around 200 people outside still waiting to vote..

                                      You tried once, so you said fuck it this time...

                                      You know mail-in, absentee, and provisional ballots are a thing, right?

                                      Also, if you're in line to vote and the polling place is set to close, you still have the right to cast your ballot, no matter how long it takes. They can turn new people away, but they can't just close up and send people home if they've been waiting. If you were told to leave, those cops violated the law. And if they absolutely had to close, they're required to give out provisional ballots. Know your rights dude.

                                        There is something seriously wrong with you.

                                          You gotta get in the building first. Back in 2016, me and a friend went to vote. I would have voted Vermin Supreme (legit candidate no less), and my buddy planned on writing in Batman.

                                          We stood in line for around 2 hours. For about the last half hour of waiting it was raining. Around half of everyone knew the weather forecast and had an umbrella, including us.

                                          They closed the voting place (library) down at 8pm sharp, and the cops told everyone in line to go home. We were probably 150~200 people back in line.

                                          We all waited that long, even in the fucking rain, only to be ordered to leave?!

                                          If it matters (which it probably does), our state doesn't have early voting, you get one day to do it and that's it.

                                          Wait 2 goddamn hours, partly in the rain, only to get shut down with around 200 people or so waiting to vote?!

                                          Sooo.. I've never had a chance to see the inside of a voting facility. Not for lack of trying though.

                                          Is that what happened in 2024 as well?
