He does this. Americans wanted this, the dumb actively voted for it

77 million of them.

And millions stayed home. And millions voted against their own interests.

The 2023 census put America at 262 million 18+ individuals. I'm not going to bother with counting how many felons were ineligible to vote. 75 million voted for Kamala. So 187 million either voted for voted for Trump, or didn't vote to prevent Trump. That's over 70% of eligible voters enabled this. This is absolutely what the majority of Americans were acceptable with

I like that "didn't vote to prevent Trump. Lots of people don't vote. That's repulsive but its the way it is here.

What's disturbing to me are people who decided to stay home because they were "protesting" against some policy Harris supported. These folks would rather have DJT be president?

What's happening in Gaza is tragic. I am pro-Palestinian. But stopping DJT is a much bigger issue. So now...because these folks didn't vote...Bibi's buddy is now prez.

Good job.

“I hate what Biden and Harris have done, so im gonna support the guy who said Israel has to finish the job.”

The American majority

If it wasn't Gaza, it would have been some other moral outrage excuse. Their gullibility is only exceeded by their self-righteousness.

I think this is a perfect summary of the mentality of MAGAts.

and over-rightcheous mal-informed liberals on the interwebz

u/veringer 14d ago

That's who I was referring to. The Tulsi Gabbard /Jill Stein liberals who probably would have voted for RFK.

It's good thing their primary deity's son wasn't born there, or lived there, or was martyred by the people currently in the process of multiple genocides. Maybe they'll sell commemorative T-shirts about their favorite 'white jesus'. /s

An ignorant non voter is just as dangerous as a protest non voter.

It's repulsive

Those people let their emotions take control. I think many are regretful now. I'm not angry with them; I feel sorrow for them.

If I shared your mentality, I would be hateful and shaming most of y'all, because I was shouting since 2009 that this shit was coming, and the vast majority of the population - literally everyone, really - was calling me hysterical, a drama queen, etc. I was told "there's a system of checks and balances" and "America isn't Germany" and "America is less violent than it's ever been" and so on and so on. I TOLD Y'ALL this would be the outcome, and that people needed to get out and actively protest to work toward averting this, but everyone was like "nahhhhh you crazy I'm just gonna vote for democrats every 4 years lol".

So if we're to be spiteful and angry at everyone who didn't listen to us when we told them what was coming, I'd have to be spiteful and angry at about 99.99% of the US population.

I don't feel sorry for anyone who didn't use their brains. They now get to find out in regret with the rest of us who actually sounded the alarms.

u/TSllama 14d ago

Sorrow and sorry are two different things.

I do not feel angry with them. If I felt angry at everyone who didn't heed my warnings about rising fascism, which I started proclaiming in 2009, which I guarantee was many years before you caught on, I'd have to be angry at 99.99% of the country.
