You mean all the bots and edgelord kids telling everyone not to vote against trump, and instead vote third party? Or did you mean all the bots and edgelord kids that shouted at everyone to stay home in protest?
Because if it wasn’t either of these two- I saw a lot of people urging others to vote for Harris. Otherwise known as the one person that had a chance to defeat trump. All while warning them of what would happen if they didn’t.
And if I recall correctly- those warnings looked a lot like what’s happening right fucking now.
MANY of us didn’t choose this. So don’t blame all of America for this shit. Be precise- blame the asshole single-issue dipshits that protested their way into a trump victory…There’s all still around-
Go on… Be my guest.
No. See, you don't personally get to write the narrative.
Here's how it is:
You are in the "United" states until you tell us otherwise. You are the ones renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. You are the ones who, by majority vote, decided that this was to be our world and our future.
Your people. Your culture. Your country. Your leader. Your choices.
Fucking own it. And if you don't like it, or this response, FUCKING STAND UP AND CHANGE IT. But don't ask ME to give a wet slap about your feelings or the when it is your country is an imperial expansionist empire trying to kick over anthills. I don't owe you that courtesy and I'm disinclined to politeness of late towards my Southern neighbors.
Do you, when you reflect on history, make such subtle distinctions? For example did Germany start world war 1 and 2 or should we defer to the feelings of the objectors to those conflicts when ascribing cause?
Dumbass.
Cool. So you have no problem blaming those that tried to stop this from happening by voting for the one person that stood a chance against trump?
Yeah… there goes any sympathy I had for you.
Unbelievable.
So I guess when all those trump supporting truckers fucked shit up in their little in their little convoys a few years back, that was you? You did that shit? Why? Why would you put so many people at risk over a president that didn’t even preside over your own country?
If it sounds ridiculous to be having someone accuse you of shit you didn’t do, and then blame you for the damages, congratulations. You’re self-aware enough to know how ignorant you sound blaming trump on people who voted for Harris.
Blocking you now as I don’t have conversations with people that can’t disagree without name calling, and blame victims for their problems.
As for your sympathy, you should probably keep it to yourself anyway. Nobody wants it. You would only use it to manipulate people anyway.
done.
