  • Yup.

    Been paying attention to American politics for 20 years now. Have watched Republican leadership fail so spectacularly that it even pissed off a bunch of conservative voters. Didn’t matter. Next dogshit Republican candidate that came along, they were back onboard.

    Because conservatives would rather have an actual, literal dictator than a Democrat president. That’s how far gone they are. They will sell out their country and their own futures to prevent the other team from winning. Hell, they just did in November. Economy is tanking and our allies all hate us now. Doesn’t matter though. The Democrat was worse…somehow.



  • Because a bunch of dumbfucks voted for a guy that made it clear he was going to fire a bunch of federal employees and then he did so and a bunch of his voters lost their jobs.

    So this really isn’t much of a stretch to believe. If this exact scenario didn’t happen, something close enough has happened to multiple people over the last 1.5 months, because that’s what happens when you abruptly lose your source of income and live paycheck to paycheck, like most Americans.


  • They vote as they do because they’re so impressionable.

    Yup.

    But I have zero sympathy for them because this isn’t the olden days where someone had to travel to a library or enroll in a university and move away from home to gain access to knowledge. It’s all there at their fingertips. They just have to be responsible enough to plug in to reasonable sources. And they aren’t. They allow hate and fear to guide their decisions.

    It’s 2025. There’s zero excuses to be ignorant now. So they can suffer and I’ll feel nothing for them.



  • Delete Elon and Trump from existence and nothing will get better.

    Why?

    Because Americans are dumb as fuck and they’ll still be dumb as fuck when and if those two are gone.

    I’m old enough to have seen the same pattern multiple times. Republican leadership fails spectacularly, even pissing off many conservatives in the process. But as soon as the next cycle begins, those conservatives are back onboard voting for the absolute shittiest candidates.

    Because to them an actual, literal dictator is better than a Democrat as president.

    Our society is circling the toilet and it almost certainly won’t get better within our lifetimes. Prepare yourselves for that.
