  • I’d actually argue people didn’t know what Harris was selling. There was a very well written and well thought out policy platform written up on their campaign’s website, but none of that reached all the Americans who refuse to read anything. The campaign trail was very focused on how Donald Trump was a threat to democracy, but they refused to really draw attention to the Nazi iconography and truly terrifying promises Trump was making. In fact, an awful lot of the campaign trail was backing Israel, promising a more secure boarder, lying about how great the economy was, and promising to reach across the isle to work with the mythical “good Republican.”

    And, to give the average American the benefit of the doubt, I don’t think many of them knew the potential dangers of a Trump re-election. I think a lot of people saw the weakly worded Democrat warnings as typical political mud-slinging. Both sides were calling each other the devil incarnate, and both sides refused to back up their claims, so it’s hard to be surprised that Americans just saw it as noise. I think most of them are just scared they won’t make it through the year, like my friends and I are, and got suckered in by the orange man telling them that everything sucks and he’ll make it better.






  • It will. It’s been inevitable for awhile now, because there are two different United States that cannot coexist with each other. When two groups of humans with radically different ideals are forced to share territory, violence is the inevitable outcome.

    The U.S. is already at a low level of violence, and has been since Trump emboldened right-wing stochastic terrorism in 2016. It will only escalate now that Trump’s brownshirts have been released from jail with a mandate to attack Trump’s enemies.





  • Fuck off with this revisionist history bullshit. Maybe if Biden had done the right thing and been a one-term president, and the DNC ran a real primary to get a candidate that could beat Trump in 2024, then he could go down in history as a good man.

    Instead, we should remember him as he was: a vain, egotistical coward. He was too worried about appearances to pursue justice against Trump, too egotistical to realize he was unpopular and stood no chance against Trump, and now he pardons his entire family and flees. Rest in fucking piss Brandon. Let him be remembered as the man who watched his country fall to fascism and did nothing.


  • He’s just pissy he didn’t get his own chance to fucking lose. Because in his heart, Biden also thinks the problem with Kamala is that she was a black woman. He sees no problem with his policies, his stance on Israel, his willingness to play nice and coy with Republicans, or his impending death. He seriously thinks that only he could “save” America, and that he could have won. All this, despite all the constituents of his party cheering when he stepped down and flooded his replacement with donations and praise.

    I’ll say it again, rest in piss Brandon. People will compare you to Chamberlain or Brüning, and it will be a disservice to both those men. Your ego caused you to utterly fail your country, and we will remember you as a failure.
