Well shit, I'm glad America got the change it wanted then. Enjoy Making America Great Again with all that amazing change you were so afraid of not happening.
I couldn't imagine waking up in the morning and being okay with what your country has become. Yet here you are with your whole chest saying "Yeah, but if Trump didn't win, we wouldn't have change".
The American education system isn't avoiding the allegations.
I'm not ok with it. This is what the Democratic Party chose. They would rather this than effect real change. At least now we have a chance to end the genocide in 2028. If Harris had won we would not even have that.
The democratic party made you vote for Trump? Or not vote at all? They made you? They forced you at gun point and grabbed your hand and you wrote the X next to every [R]?
Are are you so disparaged by the DNC that you felt like no one represents you, so you chose not to vote. But by not voting, an election still happens with or without your concent. You participate in society, so your choice or lack there of still participates. So you not voting voted for the winner of the outcome, because the election still happens with or without you.
So now your country is in turmoil. Federal agents are murdering citizens in the street. Your food isn't safe to eat. Your privacy is gone because of private enterprise. The rich get richer and you can't afford to eat the food that's not unsafe. Ai is taking over jobs.
But at least you showed those Democrats you won't be pushed around, that they forced you to not vote!
This is 100% my point. "If Harris won, we wouldn't be able to end the genocide in the middle east". You mean the one that the current President also advocated for? And after he was done with Palestine, he blew up a children's school in Iran, killed civilian boats outside of Venuzualia, and starved active Navy Seaman while he closed a major shipping port to drive your gas and food prices through the roof?
Man. Imagine if Harris had won. What would THAT world be like? Me might have stopped a genocide 4 years after the fact, instead of exasperating that current one while participating in half a dozen more! Phew, we dodged a bullet!
The democratic party ran a pro-genocide candidate. Yes - they forced me not to vote for them. I exercised the only leverage I had - I showed them that while they support genocide I will not vote for them. Yes - the current president has the same view on the genocide that Harris does. They difference is that because Harris lost, we have a chance at a non-genocidal candidate in 2028. We would not have that if she had won. If Harris had won we would have locked in the genocide for decades. Do I think that it is a shame that the Democrats would rather a Trump win than an end to slaughtering children in the Middle East? Yes of course. Let's hope they change their mind in 2028.
Just so I'm clear... You're perfectly okay with your country as a whole becoming a right dictatorship; with federal agents killing civilians in the street, Flock cameras watching your children at the pool, your food being unsafe to eat, your military starving in the middle of the ocean, your cost of living skyrocketing, AI taking over your jobs, data centres taking all your local drinking water, human rights domestically and Internationally being cut because your country won't fund human rights initiatives... As long as you could show the Democrats they can't run pro-genocide candidates so we could end the current genocide that was/is happening 4 years later from now.
Meanwhile, while I cannot confirm Harris would not have started 4 separate International wars, a genocide in Iran bombing schools, hospitals, and apartment buildings, razing the capital of Venezuela and essentially Annexed them, and invaded an International trading port for the entire purpose of manipulating the global oil economy for financial gain... But at least we avoided the chance that Harris might have done all those things!
Of course I am not ok with that. I am horrified that the Democrats prefer that to ending the genocide. But I'm not interested in anything anyone who is pro-genocide has to say. We can talk about all of those things when a candidate denounces genocide. Not before.
