And yet now you got a fascist himself who also actively supports fascism and actively supports and accelerates Genocide in two countries, including wanting to entirely depopulate one.
BOY THAT NOT SUPPORTING FASCISM WORKED OUT WELL FOR YOU!!
Whose job is it to inform voters if not the candidates themselves?
They did so, up and down. People just refused to listen, and rather listened to the republican stuff making them zero in on 2-3 issues out of thousands to make them not vote in the first place.
This time around the Democratic candidates were literally engaging in genocide, attacking immigrants, and attacking the working class while trying to claim that they were the “good guys.”
They were "engaging in genocide"? Oh that is is interesting.Attacking immigrants? You mean the very party that the republicans were crying was daily bussing millions of illegal immigrants to american small towns was now attacking them instead? That's odd, that doesn't track with what the reps said!And they're attacking the working class? You mean the administration that, as per the available statistics, managed to undo the damage trump's previous administration caused in regards to wage shift and even push for a (albeit small) improvement then went and physically assaulted those very workers on the streets? That's interesting, I did not know that!
Don't fall prey to the very mentality the Reps tried to mass-media-drill into the voter base to make them abstain or even vote for the Reps on, despite being strictly worse on those very issues they attacked the Dems over.
And yes, it's not ideal that the US has a two-party system. It's not ideal that the US has an electoral college. But you can't improve that by, well, giving up and just making it worse. If faced with two bad options, and you had previously picked the less bad one, then you don't pick the worse one just because you want some changes. You know it's getting worse, that's a change, but not one you ought to desire.
And so you voted by splitting your vote based on your local outcome. Which still, factually makes you have voted for either of the two.
One of which also wants your cost of living to go up (and is doing that now), social security to go down (and is doing that right now), reduce oversight of large corporations, massively expand corruption and corporate control of the government, reduce public safety and limit personal liberties.
If you got a choice between +9-1 and -11 (bonus for the Reps accelerating the genocide instead of abiding it) , and that's your two options, you don't pick the latter. And not voting is the same as voting for the local majority, so it matters fuck all what your intent was.
You, also, misunderstood what the vote was about, quite clearly.
The voters, genuinely. Because they misunderstood what the vote meant. It wasn't about electing a democrating candidate, it was about keeping Trump out of office*. Note that this is not limited to non-voters, but includes every american.
*: This is not what a vote for the president is meant to be about. But hey, desperate times, desperate measures, that kinda stuff.
Hrm, unlike then. I was thinking whether someone had added that solid-layer-every-X-layers option to the slice. (sadly can't remember the name, and am at work)
And yet people voted a fascist into office who is now actively acclerating genocide including wanting a country fully depopulated.
