Gentle reminder to UK folks that if you don't like Labour there is no better election than this one to vote for a third party or independent who actually stands for what you believe in.
Every major poll is predicting a Labour landslide and a total collapse of the Tory party. The only reason to tactically vote Labour to "keep the Tories out" is if in exactly your seat the Tories (or worse Reform) are projected to be first or second place and no one else is close - but in a lot of seats the predicted second is not the Tories, it's Lib Dems or SNP or in some places even Greens, and that gives you the freedom to vote for what you believe in because the Tories aren't gonna get that seat anyway.
Remember: UK is not the US, and despite all that Labour and the Tories try to do this is not a two-party state. Vote pragmatically, yes, and mindful of harm reduction, but be rational and informed as well.
#usual caveats that voting is not and should not be your only political engagement#it is in fact the least effective form of political engagement#but it takes half an hour and it can have an impact on the lives of the most vulnerable and in need#if you can make a sandwich even if it doesn't directly lead to the establishment of world communism you can do the same for a ballot paper#just don't forget to go and do some real politics once the electoral song and dance is over#politics#.txt#uk politics#uk elections

Favourites from November walks with Barney & Flynn, in years gone by.
#digging in the archives#November 2024#isn't shaping up to be the best November there ever was...#I woke up today to the horrifying results in the USA.#horrified for Americans who didn't vote for this... & for Palestinians... Ukrainians... & ultimately the rest of us too.#Always scary that an election in another country has so much impact across the globe.#I can only hope that Trump's impact on the US itself is less terrible than feared...#& that other governments & international organisations step up to counter potentially disastrous foreign policy decisions.#politics#worrying times#election 2024#dogs#barney#flynn#border collies

US politics is truly a wonder (derogatory) to watch considering the batshit insane voting system and their options
#unfortunately they also have have impact on the rest of the world so it's also quite depressing#I'm going to sleep and I'll see you tomorrow with the inevitable destiel meme showing me results#us politics#2024 presidential election

Ok ik this is mean and irrelevant but I’m curious: People with running Supernatural postcanon AUs, via fic, art, in their heads etc:
Please rb to spread, as an amateur folklorist and historian I’m kind of desperate to get a snapshot of whatever transition is taking place.
#sorry if this seems in poor taste. just doing my actual duty as a folklorist for once#unironically this is a big part of my academia#wild to document the impact of a devastating political shift on working-class folk myth#will also be posting a weeklong version in order to gather both snapshot and longer-effect data#IN REAL TIME#destiel#supernatural#nov 5th#november 5th#superhell#us politics#us elections#Donald Trump#Kamala Harris#Spn#academia#studyblr

in light of recent events with the election, i want to remind everyone to take care of themselves the best they can. i know that things are really hard right now for so many people—women, poc, lgbtq+, especially. but please do not forget that there are people out there who love you, who care for you, and wish nothing but the best for you. check in on your loved ones, and check in on yourself 🤍
i love you. we’ll be ok. it doesn’t feel that way now, and it might not feel that way for awhile. but we’ll be ok.
#⋆.˚ s talks!#american politics are. a lot rn.#and i felt that not speaking about this AT ALL#would be like lying to myself#bc as someone who is going to be impacted by this greatly (as we all will)#this has been the only thing i have thought about for the last 24+ hours#please please please check in on the people in your lives#the women#the queer / trans people#the people of color#the women of color especially#because my god#this country has failed us over and over#and i shouldn’t be surprised. but i unfortunately.#btw this is not a trump safe zone please leave.#i feel like that’s pretty clear but i just want to add that#you are not welcome here. at all.#anyway i’m not going to talk about this very much#but i just wanted to leave a small message#and i hope you’re able to take care of yourself and stay safe#and i want to say that i love you#us politics#us elections#election 2024#positive suggestions#positive thoughts#positive mental attitude

So the mainstream media is basically bullying Biden for ratings and indirectly helping Trump's campaign. (Rant.)
It's cooling down a little now, but it's been genuinely distressing how even the more left-leaning mainstream media won't shut the fuck up about Biden doing bad at the debate.
We get it: Biden is old. But why so little coverage on all of Trump's lies through and since the debate? Because the American people already know Trump lies, and they're desensitized to it. Talking about Trump's lies doesn't get clicks. Making people angry about Biden, however, does bring in the views. Lemme say that one more time:
Reporting on Trump's lies doesn't make them as much money; Exaggerating Biden's flaws, however, does.
Americans are literally fighting to keep their democracy and these outlets only care about bringing up the same drama over and over again for ratings. They can hardly mention a single good thing Biden has done without shoehorning in at least one or two comments about how "everyone is saying he should step down." If Biden steps down, Trump will most likely win. Full stop.
The other day I was listening to 4 different mainstream news outlets talking about how "so many" Democrats in the house and senate had publicly called for Biden to step down. The total at that time? Nine people. That's 9 out of over 250 Democrats. A few more have popped up since, but that was "so many"?
It has never been so obvious that CNN was essentially taken over in the shadows a couple years ago by billionaire John Malone (who claims he's a Libertarian, but is a Trump donor who hangs with far-righters.) Watching otherwise competent newscasters and panelists resort to soap opera-levels of bad acting to push the narrative their bosses wanted was some painful secondhand embarrassment.
Another example: MSNBC, which is pretty damn left, posted the following the other day:
That sounds pretty bad, doesn't it? Here's the thing though: SEN. BLUMENTHAL LITERALLY DID NOT SAY THAT. The actual quote is as follows:
"I am deeply concerned about Joe Biden winning this November, because it is an existential threat to the country if Donald Trump wins. So I think that we have to reach a conclusion as soon as possible. And I think, Joe Biden, as the Democratic nominee, has my support."
What kind of context-shredding garbage was that, MSNBC? It's straight-up misleading; A lie through omission. But unless you were to look up the video or a full article, you'd never know that.
We get it. Biden is old. Here's the thing though: It's not only a vote for Biden, it's a vote for the Democratic administration he brings with him. Biden may be the nominee, but he is surrounded by highly educated folks who have the American people in mind rather than blind MAGA loyalty. You may not agree with some of their policy, but you cannot deny that a MAGA administration would be far, far worse.
If you haven't yet, please look up "Project 2025".
As much as it sucks being in what is essentially a 2-party system, it's what the Americans are stuck with for now. So I leave you with this:
Not voting is a free vote for Trump.
Voting third-party is a free vote for Trump.
Voting for a write-in is a free vote for Trump.
For the love of democracy, vote blue; No matter who.

You know this is gonna have an impact outside of the election, right ? You understand that this is likely going to result in an upsurgence in violence against already vulnerable populations, and that it is going to be worked into preexisting radical ideologies and bolster them, likely in ways that will have very broad and wide reaching impacts, right ? You understand that, right ? Because if your understanding of the greater impacts of donald trump getting a new ear piercing entirely start and end with how its going to impact how people vote than maybe you are not as politically conscious as you like to pretend
#some of u are so fucking close to getting it too#like some of u will straight up mention how this will be worked into ideology but then go straight to the election and fucking nothing else#dont fucking try and leave a comment on here abt 'ohhh well it WILL impact the election tho' bcs that is NOT the point and you....#...fucking know its not. i am not going to entertain u willfully misinterpreting the point of this to distract from it. dont even try.#donald trump#us politics#uspol#trump#ceci says stuff#events

my election night consists of drinking gin out the bottle and kvetching online, hbu?
#as a non-american the outsize impact your politics have on the rest of us is. deeply fucking frustrating i have to say#for all of you who are americans - this is your last minute reminder to vote if polls are still open in your area#and if you're in line when the polls are scheduled to close stay in line; they still have to let you vote if you are in line when polls clo#and uh. maybe don't elect the frothing cheeto-coloured fascist this time. just a fucking thought.#anyway back to drinking.

the thing is that whats happening is really scary. not because everything is going to fall apart - he may do far less damage than we fear.
but because this outcome has people afraid for their lives and uncertain if they want to live. democracy should never leave such a large proportion of people fearful.
yes, there will always be people upset about the outcome of an election - usually around half. but there should never be people interested in harming others or constructing conspiracy theories, and absolutely never people interested in harming themselves.
American politics, radicalism and individualism has gone too far and its dangerous.
#NOTE this is a very western and privileged perspective - its completely different in countries with already hazardous political landscapes#im trying not to think or post about it#but i see SO MANY PEOPLE posting helplines#and messages of hope#as well as people confession that they are having suicidal thoughts after this#its terrifying#yes poltics has long beeen scary but now a global superpower??#its quite devastating#that a radical man has developed a cult following who overlook his criminal convictions#that people fear a 'leftist' opinion that is similarly progressive as our 'right wing' in aus#and a third of people didnt even vote. even though this might impact them#and will CERTAINLY impact people they know in some way#its just awful and tragic when you look at what happened#our brains like to imagine the worst case scenario#i struggle to believe that this term will be as bad as we fear#but i fear what this choice means for america#for politics#for the world#thank u for coming to my ted talk#us politics#american politics#us election#donald trump#kamala harris
