What about the democrats that did something how should they feel?
Bluntly, what have you done for me lately?
What Democrats did is a meaningless platitude.
What are all of you doing right now?
What the fuck should we do with your "we did our part"?
Simply put, You the People cannot be trusted to keep fascism at bay.
If you are ever allowed to vote in a free election again, one third of you will vote for more of this bullshit, and one third of you will refuse to vote.
Collectively, you are untrustworthy.
Of course they can't. The founding mythology? The military fluffing? The pervasive propaganda over American exceptionalism?
It's a fascist country. It just doesn't always have a totalitarian government.
Frankly I think the only thing that’d give me faith in my countrymen would be learning there’s actually truth to Musk/the repubs at large rigging the election, and that’s a long shot.
If the goal is to get people engaged, does telling them they’re worthless and untrustworthy actually help? I get the anger, but if you want people to step up, what’s the strategy beyond just calling them dummies?
No, I don't think you do.
Why don’t I?
Only you can answer that.
If they took action and failed I don’t hold anything against them. It’s better to try and fail than not try at all.
Unfortunately the scale of what’s happening right now is existential, so they find themselves in the crossfire.
Not a single american voted for THIS. Trump didn't give any indication he was going to do this. This is ALL his doing. As far as you guys pushing americans to strap up, 1. Our quality if life has yet to be affected, when that happens, more people will act. 2. As for people like myself, I have a bi daughter, if and when the time comes for me to open up the armory, I will but right now, just.acting will ruin all of our lives. 3. I have worked extremely hard for my entire life, I just.got a house, reached my career goal and my lifes goal of making 6 figures.I'm not upper.class, but I've come from poverty and I'm not throwing that away. 4. WHEN things get bad or if trump actually acted on trying to take over.canada, more than half of.us would fight with you, but trump is.full of shit. Just.don't buy.american shit.and.move on with your lives. We got you. Shit will change, but don't expect me to pull the strap over mediocrity and toothless threats.
WE FUCKING TOLD YOU
HE FUCKING TOLD YOU
THE HERITAGE FOUNDATION FUCKING TOLD YOU
When you say 'any indication', since project 2025 and his last term were both real, you mean to say 'every indication', correct?
The guy was a felon stalling the investigation of his own mishandling of secrets, during rape trials, and people voted that clown show in.
There's no trump voter unaware of any of that.
I'm exclusively talking about annexing Canada bro. And I'm not.not defending the moron or his followers. I'm just saying when it comes to annexing canada, no one knew about that shit. But like I said, it's idle threats. Don't lose sleep over it. Trump doesn't control our soldiers, even tho he has the title. Americans wouldn't follow thru with that shit even if he ordered it.
ooooh maaaaan nobody knew about this specific thing around all the other sea of known fascist, transphobic, racist, xenophobic nazi shit! that makes it alllllll better
I have the utmost sympathy and care for democrats and independents who tried and failed. I can't tell them how to feel, but I'd feel scared and helpless.
There's no relevance to "did". There's "doing" and "not doing".
