You (wsj article author, not op) supposedly cherish “freedom of expression” and “stories” - which party is doing book bans?? And Which party is against censorship?? Hmmm??? And by voting for Trump you proved everyone else right! You are too stupid and racist and sexist, especially if you think Trump winning will stop these “divisive and destructive” arguments. Leftists and liberals still exist and we still know we are smarter than you and that trump is bad. Or were you hoping we’d all be put in jail? Which trump said he would do-jail all his “enemies” but oh no Democrats enacted constitutional overreach to address actual treason on Jan 6th. You are also stupid for not knowing what 3rd graders are actually taught, and that it’s not Critical Race Theory. I will also bet $1000 you don’t know what CRT actually is or who Kimberlé Crenshaw is. You fear the sway of Big Pharma and you voted for trump?? When Biden has been capping insulin at $30?? And got us vaccines and covid tests for free?? Like none of what you wrote makes sense!!

Thank you, Wall Street Journal, for giving us an editorial that tells us "I voted for Trump because Democrats were mean and rude and 8 year olds are learning CRT and Trump will bring us freedom." Fuck's sake. You bought into Republican propaganda.

#Obligatory yes I know Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party are too beholden to the rich and too centrist/right wing #I would like to vote for more leftist candidates who are actively opposing genocide like Bernie Sanders #but Dems being bad doesn’t mean trump is great or even good or okay #I voted for Harris #but I also voted for Bernie in the 2020 primary #and I’ll keep voting super left in primaries #and as left as is feasible in general elections #but trump voters should be ashamed of themselves #For voting for someone who hates most people and most kinds of people and who doesn’t care about helping anyone #he’s not gonna help most of the ppl who voted for him #I thought they learned that the first time #but it’s been 4 years and I guess they forgot #Or they are just so racist and sexist it doesn’t matter #too scared to vote for a woman of color who would have moderately improved the lives of every day Americans #without solving most of America’s systemic issues which will take decades if not centuries to solve #Because breaking stuff is a lot easier than fixing it #but because she was black and Indian and a woman #and because the ppl who would benefit (slightly) might be black or women or queer or undocumented #Well You couldn’t have that #so frustrating #a rising tide lifts all boats #and it might have been an inch or a foot but the tide would have helped everyone #but some ppl care more about punishing others - punishing undocumented migrants for example #that if the perception is they might not get treated like completely disposable garbage then you can’t vote for Harris #even though Biden and Obama have been way too tough on immigration #Obama even deported the most ppl of any President #but because the Dems aren’t openly xenophobic and racist and don’t laugh about how badly they will treat the ppl they deport #you can’t vote for them?#because it’s easier to blame America’s problems on immigrants (who are the cause of exactly zero of America’s problems)#than to face up to the many multi-faceted causes of America’s ills? Or to acknowledge that racism & sexism might have something to do w/ it
