A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Listen, either what happened is OK or it isn't. And when you say "these are humans who voted with concerns for themselves and their communities" it makes seem like electing a felon, rapist, insurrectionist moron to the highest office is OK.
So that's why I'm here writing to you: to fucking tell you that it's not, and to ask you to not try to justify it or make this shit sound reasonable. It's not.
No one is going to listen to your points if you come from a place of hatred. It may not be "okay" but it doesn't mean someone who didn't vote for Kamala for one reason is the same as another who may be a serial sociopath. Everyone has their reasons. You'll reach people by talking to them about it. Not chastising them.
He's right, though.
Okay.
