us-ians try not to fuck up this election and vote blue challenge (impossible) (they don't care about anyone but themselves) (they're unable to see the devastating consequences if that orange buffoon is re-elected) (they don't understand how their own government works) (voting blue is literally the only option you have if you want to survive past 2030. like there is literally no other fucking option. if you do not vote blue this year, so much blood will be on your hands you can't even imagine it i don't think) (us-ians are too shortsighted to see what will happen to the rest of the fucking world if their little orange dictator gets reelected and they. don't. care.)

the supreme court is so comically evil like you really have to vote blue across the board they made it legal to criminalize homelessness, overturned chevron which means the extremely conservative courts get to override health officials and environmental regulations
like infant mortality has increased by 8% in some states post roe, they will avoid the trump immunity case as long as possible, they essentially shielded all the jan 6 rioters
if biden loses we could be stuck with 6-3 or 7-2 extremely conservative judges for decades!!! that could mean 40 years of social rights regulations and health codes thrown out the door!!! look how much we’ve lost in 8 years?
and what about pack the courts? you can’t pack the courts with this split congress you can’t pass roe laws with this split congress you really have to vote blue all the way

I can't imagine being anywhere near as insane as Trump supporters because my dad told me that he, earlier, drove past a guy putting a "Harris Walz 2024" sign outside his house and decided to yell out at him "TRUMP 2024 YOU COCKSUCKER" and flip him off. And he laughed when he told me because he thinks that yelling at a man (emphasized man because he thinks men should be "better" than women, and "better" would be voting for Trump in this case) who is voting for a "whore who slept her way to the top" (his exact words) is funny. And expected me to laugh with him. And got angry when I didn't and just stared at him in disbelief. Even though he already knows that I don't like Donald Trump. These people fully expect others to find their weird ass derogatory words and behavior FUNNY. Donald Trump is leading a cult of old people who he brainwashed into being delusional with him.

This whole election just got flipped upside down, and I know that’s scary. But I also hope that this MOBILIZES people. We don’t have to have a geriatric president anymore. We have an obvious replacement for Biden in the race. Like… I know she’s not perfect. Everybody sucks I know I know I know. But I feel a tiny bit of…. Hope? I mean in a choice between Kamala and Trump the answer is So. Fucking. Obvious.
GO VOTE.
#anyways don’t like. kill me for this#but nobody really wanted to vote for Biden and now NOBODY HAS TO#go vote#vote blue#And tbh I hope we get to see her tear him to shreds in a debate#kamala harris#us politics#listen guys I’m so fucking tired ok all politicians are corrupt the country is corrupt shit fucking sucks#but at least she’s young enough to type her own Instagram posts#Donald Trump#joe biden#usa politics#I’ll probably lose followers for this but I’m exhausted of the rhetoric on here

i dont care where you live in the usa or w/e... if you dont vote for biden you are throwing away your vote and enabling trump. because *everyone* thinks their vote doesnt matter and piddles around because of that. hell, everyone thinks 'its only me, it wont make a difference' about THOUSANDS of things, like littering, picking seashells, taking stones from rivers, etc. and in all of those situations THEYRE FUCKING WRONG. if anything unites us, its our damn ability to think we alone are the outlier despite everything indicating otherwise.
and miss me with that 'biden is just as bad/is a murderer' shit. 1) cool, and how do you plan to change things in a mr. nazi-dictator trump world? how are you ACTIVELY making a difference? 2) CHANGE IS INCREMENTAL. the reason things suck so much is because the left keeps taking slow change as 'no change' and giving up before we can gain any momentum to make big change!
if you vote in hamas or w/e to protest... you might as well throw dirt at all those suffering innocent people. you arent saving palestine that way. that is not a helpful protest. you'll only enable trump to win by throwing away your vote. it is the one bit of actual power you have, so USE IT RIGHT! stop in-fighting for one moment! look at what is possible to achieve in reality! dreams arent fulfilled overnight!
when you feel like your vote doesnt matter, remember this - you have to try anyways
#ditto rambles#HOW MANY TIMES MUST WE REMIND YOU GUYS#LEFT HAS ABYSMAL TURNOUT#IF YOU WOULD ACTUALLY TAKE THE SMALL VICTORIES WE CAN ACHIEVE#INSTEAD OF THROWING THE GAME WHEN YOU CANT HAVE THD BIG CHANGE RIGHT OFF THE BAT#WE MIGHT ACTUALLY BE ABLE TO START EVENING THR PLAYING FEILD#THE FUCKING GOVERNMENT IS SET UP TO WORK AGAINST US RIGHT NOW#BUT YOUR NOT HELPING IF YOU DO NOTHING OR THROW YOUR VOTE!#YES BIDEN FUCKING SUCKS YES THE PRESIDENTS NEVER DO ENOUGH#BUT IT CAN AND WILL GET WORSE IF YOU DONT RECOGNIZE THE LIMITATIONS BEFORE US#THERE IS *NO WORLD* WHERE TRUMP IS BETTER THAN BIDEN#IF YOU WASTE YOUR VOTE A PRESIDENT WILL STILL GET ELECTED!!!!#MAKE SURE ITS THE RIGHT ONE!!@!#WHY IS THIS SO HARD TO UNDERSTANZ????#DO YOU REALLY THINK WASTING YOUR ONE BIT OF REAL POWER HELPS PALISTINE AT ALL?????#YES THINGS SUCK WE ALL KNOW THAT#BUT YOU DONT GET THE BIG WIN WITHOUT TAKING WHAT SMALL VICTORIES YOU CAN!!!!#UNLESS YOU ARE ACTIVELY FIRE BOMBING WALMARTS AND STAGING PROTESTS#YOU DONT GET TO CLAIM VOTING IS USELESS!!!#BECAUSE IF THAT WAS TRUE THEN THEY WOULDN'T BE TRYING TO STOP US FROM VOTING#AND CONSIDER THIS - IF THE WIN IS TOO BIG TO DENY *THEY CANT FUCKING DENY IT* LIKE WITH CLINTON#THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE SUCKD ASS BUT WE DO ACTUALLY CONRTOL AND OUTNUMBER IT#ITS NEVER JUST YOU!!!! *NEVER*!!!!!!!#WE ARE NEVER ALONE IN OUR DECISIONS!!!!#SO USE THAT DAMN POWER!!!!#OUR VOICES CAN BE HEARD IF WE WORK TOGETHER FOR ONCE!!!!!!

Cutting UN food aid to Yemen and then bombing them wasn’t enough apparently
Biden cut off funding to UNWRA and the best reasoning I can think of is maybe he’s the only person on the planet who believed “the UN is Hamas!” defense from israel at the ICJ
#i just….#what the fuck are we doing#joe biden kill yourself#free palestine#UNWRA#UN#also#it fucking sucks that this is going to be a devastating blow to the Palestinian ppl bc UNWRA/UN as a whole aren’t without fault#I remember the videos of Palestinians having to break into UN storage centers to get flour and other aid bc for some unknown reason#the UN wasn’t distributing it???#the people were starving and the empire serving institution the UN is sat there twiddling thumbs waiting for permission to feed them#not even getting into the crimes and abuses the UN has taken part of in African nations and Haiti#just absolute bullshit#so fucking frustrating#un stands for useless niggas#fuck israel#israel will perish#death to israel#death to america#death to empire

you know I think another angle people should think about wrt voting third-party instead of Joe Biden and consequently definitely leading to Trump taking office again is:
Joe Biden would be far more likely to be held accountable for the Gaza genocide
Trump attempted a coup and they're still letting him run for president, and he will absolutely continue supporting Israel among other morally reprehensible shit like uhhh literal martial law for the whole country if he wins, and you know if the UN or something tries Trump for supporting genocide he will face no repercussions because he will have the full backing of the GOP and a packed Supreme Court and a bunch of fucking billionaires
meanwhile if Joe Biden gets in international trouble for supporting genocide while in office, not only will several more progressive Dems support it, the GOP will be CHOMPING AT THE BIT to get Biden (rightfully) on the hook for the blood on his hands
I really truly hate Biden and the entire government for continuing to support the slaughter of Palestinians but you really are truly fucking braindead if you think voting third-party is going to do any more good besides making you personally feel a little better while you help Trump get re-elected and screw over the rest of the world even more
#IT SUCKS. IT ALL SUCKS BUT POLITICS IS A CHESS GAME#YOU HAVE TO MAKE THE SMART MOVE NOT THE 'MORALLY PURE' ONE#YOU CAN KEEP HARASSING BIDEN IF HE GETS ANOTHER TERM#WE CAN'T GO BACK IF THE ORANGE GUY WINS AGAIN DO YOU FUCKING UNDERSTAND

I don't know how to explain to you chucklefucks that for the most disenfranchised among us, NOTHING HAS FUCKING CHANGED since Trump left office. We know how bad it was, we were fucking here. And we are TELLING YOU, not speculating about the future, we are TELLING 👏YOU 👏NOW that nothing fucking got better for us and some of us ALREADY have nothing left to lose THANKS TO BIDEN AS WELL. NOT JUST TRUMP. WE HAVE BEEN DOING THIS SHIT ALL ALONG. Not JUST once Trump got to office!!! And NO IT HAS NOT BEEN FUCKING EASIER. WTF. Incoming tranmission from Planet Neoliberal Voter Privilege.
You stupid pricks don't even seem to realize that Trump leaving office DIDNT MEAN HIS APPOINTEES ALL WENT WITH HIM. THEYVE STILL BEEN THERE THE WHOLE TIME. Alive and WELL AT WORK helping to push some of the worst antiqueer legislation we've seen in DECADES while Biden, who barely has 2 brain cells left to rub together, decomposes before our very eyes.
If you think TRUMP was the thing that brought neo-nazi fascism to the mainstream, you are so comfortably privileged to have gotten to ignore it, to have never fucking heard it until then. And you are way too out of touch to be addressing the people you think you're talking to rn!
The "sign off on your glorious revolution" bit really gets me. Lmao. What a fundamental misunderstanding of the issue. What a hilarious way to misconstrue entire swaths of political ideology. You think Policial Jesus is going to come and save your ass, so we must think that too, huh?
Shits gonna hit the fan this year regardless of who "wins" the election, and it's not merely because of The Orange Man. It's also because of everyday lay people like this OP who have merely been privileged enough to ignore the suffering of your neighbors until now. Your privilege is running out, not because the revolution is coming, but because the hegemony that affords you that privilege cannot continue indefinitely. That machine runs on a profit-growth-extraction paradigm and we are running out of resources to extract from.
I don't know how to explain to these fucking people that you are the tone deaf motherfuckers we're talking to when we say you need to stop talking and learn. You have reblogged support of BLM and UBI and Palestine but at the end of the day you *don't fucking listen* to what we're saying in those posts. At the end of the day you are not hearing our cries of pain. And its pretty fucking ridiculous to turn around and point at people EVEN LESS PRIVILEGED THAN YOU and say "don't you realize that YOU'RE going to threaten MY safety and stability with your uncouth actions?" Well, bully for fucking you, because we already lost that! It's been gone! It never came back for some of us after Trump left!!!! You got to plug your ears and pretend the pandemic was over while millions of us became disabled and homeless for the first time as a result!!! While BIDEN admitted HE DOESNT THINK ABOUT IT ANYMORE!!!!! You got to go back to your life while protestors railing against our tax dollars being used for GENOCIDE are being injected with KETAMINE by the COPS!!!! If you thought TRUMP was that fucking scary! At least he outright said what he was doing!! Biden is continuing his work with ICE, continuing to increase surveillance and crack down on any kind of protestor, cop cities are expanding UNDER BIDEN, DEMOCRATS ARE ALSO VOTING FOR MASK BANS!!!!!!!
It is SOOOOO BLATSNTLY SELF CENTERED to think that you losing the privilege of a comfy life is the biggest threat to ""our democracy"" rn. YOU got to ignore how bad shit was until now. Some of us NEVER HAD THAT LUXURY. Our democracy fucking died decades ago and YOU got to keep playing Weekend at Bernies with it's corpse while the rest of us dug our own graves. And now you're scared because you stand to end up like us.
Lol. Lmao. Get fucked. This type of attitude is only furthering the class/social divides that already exist between voters and WILL. NOT. get anyone to vote harder for Biden. In fact, it just makes me wanna fist fight a Democrat even more than I already did.
First they came for the indigenous, and you didn't say anything bc you got yours. They came for the immigrants, and you didn't say anything bc you've always been a citizen. They came for the prisoners and their voting rights and you said if they didn't want to lose their rights they should follow the law, even while they made it illegal to mask, to protest, to be gay and trans in public- its so easy to just follow the rules! They came for the trans kids and you said, but we already have gay marriage, I thought it was safe to be queer now, and I dont have trans kids so I don't see how this affects me... they came for palestine and you said Oof. Well. That's the price of freedom for me, I guess!
And now they're coming for you and none of the other targets are left to feel worried for you, because we have already been living through your worst nightmare, UNDER BIDEN.
You look fucking stupid.
if you could EVER find a dem as outspoken and angry for the people as trump is for the white 1% then maybe we wouldnt be having this discussion.

Actually saw a post this morning that said ‘if you vote at all for either candidate in the next presidential election you support genocide and are a horrible person’ and I just…
I cannot fathom that level of stupidity. Also, I’m extremely suspicious of anyone who tries to tell others that voting doesn’t work, is bad, etc.
Please don’t fall for the same mistakes as 2016. Yes things are bad, yes there is bad on both sides, but refusing to vote doesn’t change anything or help anyone.
I’m begging y’all to think and use your heads.
#I see that shit on my dash and you’re getting u followed and blocked#I don’t like Biden as much as the next person but another trump presidency will destroy us and destroy any chance of change#you think the republicans if they win will help Palestine? you think they care about people with uteruses or the lgtbq+?#please look at project 2025 it’s fucking terrifying#change doesn’t happen immediately but it won’t happen at all if we get stuck with fascists in power#the system sucks but in order to change it we need to elect people who support democracy#not the party that’s trying to make trump a dictator

before talking about who to vote for, can we talk about how the voting itself is utter bullshit though? The USA is straight up not a democracy. I get that people are fed up with the choices and that other people have pointed out there aren't any other choices (because third party voting is not viable here, so it's the lesser of two evils) but also maybe we are fed up with the fact we aren't able to have a choice either? And that if we do continue to participate in this system, we will only be telling it we are okay with it giving us no other options? Even without the clear violations of free speech/protest, actions done without input (ie. Presidential orders), and straight up denial of existence if you aren't a certain type of person, the electoral college system is SO TREMENDOUSLY BAD AT BEING DEMOCRATIC IN A VACUUM/ALTERNATE UNIVERSE WHERE CANDIDATES ARE NEAR PERFECT. People in states with smaller populations have greater representation in the electoral college due to the number of electors being based on number of Reps in the House (based proportionately on population) and Senators (which is 2 per state, meaning those 2 are split much more for big population states than small ones so small ones have more "elector" per person) so we don't even have the same power as some USA citizens. Not only that, but in some states, if the majority is for one candidate then ALL the votes are switched to that candidate. So you could have 51/100 people vote for you but have it seem like 100/100 did. Also, if there's a tie, it goes to Congress and our reps are genuinely allowed to just. not vote for who we want them to.
I'm not just fed up with these politicians, I'm fed up with the system that put them on my fucking ballot.
So, there's a lot of USians around who are very clearly fucking fed up with their political choices this election cycle, and planning to sit it out.
And I get it! What's the point of voting if there's no one to vote for?
The thing is, I'm Australian. In Australia, voting is compulsory. We don't get to sit out our elections, and I'll be real honest with you - we don't exactly get better choices than you lot. So how do you vote if there's no one to vote for? You find someone to vote against. And there's always someone to vote against.
Now, we have the pleasure of preferential voting in Australia - We get to rank every candidate from 1 to X, and I'll tell you, there's something so cathartic about putting the biggest bastard of the lot at the very bottom of your preferences. I understand that USians don't get that option - you get to mark one person, and that's it.
That means that you get one shot, so aim it at the biggest bastard of the lot. The candidate you most utterly detest. Put your vote in the worst possible place for them. Don't even think about who that vote's going towards, that's not the point. Remember, every vote is a vote against someone. Make sure you fuck up that someone's election day!
#free palestine#the US likes to call Israel the only democracy in the Middle East but the US itself isnt even one#its a democratic republic#i dont want a president whos only argument is 'at least im not the other guy'#genuinely we just have to wait and hope our politicians listen to us out of the goodness of their hearts#or have them be so massively unpopular with an entire party's worth of people that another person#could be voted in#did i mention george washington didnt even want a 2 party system#dont come at me with that 'oh its not a perfect world so suck it up' FUCK THAT#WHATS THE FUCKING POINT OF GOING FORWARD IF WE ARENT TRYING TO MAKE THINGS BETTER WITH EACH STEP??#IM NOT GONNA BE SATISFIED WITH BIDEN “ERASING DEBT” OR WHATEVER OTHER BS. HE CAN DO MORE AND HE KNOWS IT#YOU DONT HOPE YOUR NEW BOSS WONT BE AS SHITTY AS YOUR LAST#YOU FUCKING GRAB EM BY THE NECK AND UNIONIZE UNTIL YOU CAN GO ANYWHERE AND EXPECT FAIR TREATMENT#FROM THE GET GO

What really kills me is that there are 15 million people who voted for Biden last year who chose not to vote for Harris. You want to try and tell me America doesn't have a misogyny problem than explain to me why that many people CHOSE on purpose to not vote for a qualified black woman over a literal fascist. A rapist. A convicted felon. FIFTEEN. MILLION. I hope all of you step on a Lego today. I hope you get stuck behind slow drivers who stop at yellow lights when you could both make it through. I hope your children grow up and are disappointed in you forever for this choice. I hope you lie awake years from now in regret. And all 15 million of you had better get your act together and vote blue in the midterms.
#listen i did not want to make a post about politics#but it really sucks to see how so many americans view women#even other women!!! even other marginalized communities!!!!#like grow up and get over yourselves#your one criticism about biden was that he was old#so we got you a younger candidate willing to give you the exact same things he would#and you didnt. fucking. show. up.#kalama harris#forever president in my heart#i will always mourn the america we could have had with you at the helm

i kinda wanna make a critical post about Some Notable People not speaking up and outright endorsing anyone this election but i also know that it probably wouldn't've changed very much and therefore 'doesn't matter' but actually, yes, it does matter because it sets a good precedent. and besides. why would they be out there hyping obama or even biden the fuck up but then talking about voting harris in hushed voices. like it's probably a mix of misogyny and just plain old liberal democrat cowardice. because i KNOW these People probably don't care that much about any differences in their policies, at least not significantly enough for it to seem unreasonable to hype up harris as the better choice.
#myevilposts#the sheer difference in support of obama vs. harris is fucking crazy to me esp given how obama was literally out here#endorsing her. like obviously we're fine have a president of color but the country draws the line at a woman president?#like what the fuck. i was jokingly saying michelle should run but you know what?#hillary ran and she was a former first lady and michelle is seriously well equipt for politics from experience too so like.#she would not be a terrible choice all things considered.#but as i was saying. the outpouring of support for obama vs. the nothingburger we got for harris kinda kills me !!!!#'oh but harris is worse in xyz way than obama or even biden so that's why she didn't get as much endorsement!'#like yeah i don't like a lot of her policies or centrist suck-up-age but she's the obvious better choice when put in context.#we need to suck it up and just pick the lesser evil and yes that includes encouraging people to vote for the lesser evil.#bernie saying democrats probably won't learn from this election is also killing me. bc he has a point.#we're going to have to go super uber fucking hard next time. we need to get our shit so much more together.#this should be a wake up call.#and if we don't try to get tr*mp/v*nce impeached then what the fuck are we doing.#i didn't even see as much outright tr*mp hate this election cycle and that like. pissed me off too.#if you aren't going to outright endorse harris at least stand up against tr*mp. like c'mon. bare minimum.#you don't have to like her but you needed to choose her over him. it's the obvious choice but you still need to say it.

Gonna need yall to stop putting Biden is Just As Bad propaganda on my dash. Had to unfollow someone because I don’t want to a start a fight with them over it, but I’m about to bite the next person who puts that shit in front of me.
If you don’t like Biden, vote in your god damn local and mid term elections for third party or further left candidates so that we get better democratic candidates for future elections. But this one is already fucking decided, and I’m NOT ending up under a Trump led dictatorship because yall value protecting your personal sense of moral purity over the collective good. Whether it offends your personal morals to vote for Biden is IRRELEVANT in the face of the alternative.
This isn’t a lesser of two evils situation. One guy sucks. The other guy is LITERALLY PLANNING TO OVERTHROW OUR DEMOCRACY AND INSTALL HIMSELF AS A PUTIN STYLE DICTATOR.
PLEASE look up Project 2025 and stop acting like abstaining is some kind of personal ethical decision!

THIS is why proper candidate research is important!!!! PLEASE, I am well aware that the Biden administration is far from perfect, but people need to start using common fucking sense. Unfortunately a third party candidate isn’t a viable option if we want to keep Trumplestiltskin out of office, Americans need to vote Biden. After that, y’know what, if he dies in office, at least we’ll get Kamala. Will it be fair that she wasn’t elected, that it had to be “hey, the old white guy died and you’re next in line” situation? No, but at least Kamala Harris will be a better option for VP than whoever the fuck Trump makes his VP.
I really think people have forgotten just how bad things were under the Trump Administration. Literally every day there was news about some service being cut or someone terrible appointed somewhere they shouldn't be or what have you. He constantly flirted with WW3 and military dictatorship. It was such a blur of badness that there aren't big standouts for people to point to to make him "the XYZ president." it was everything. all the time. Why do we not remember this.
#us politics#american government#look i get it#this shit sucks#I don’t want a two party system#but until we don’t have a fucking Cheeto fascist trying to get elected#we’ve got to suck it up and be proactive#pick the lesser of two evils#Biden may be genocide joe but at least he isn’t convicted on 34 charges#34 charges#do not vote trump#use your voice#use your vote#free gaza#free palestine#i stand with palestine

genuinely in awe with how half of this country is still rooting for trump after all this. do they have no critical thinking skills? are their heads so far up their own asses they can't possibly see a way out? its not even going to matter if the jury finds him guilty or not in any of the multiple felony trials hes found himself in, his loyal fanbase of total fucking morons is still going to vote for him even if he ends up in jail, which he probably won't, he'll find another way to weasel his way out of that too no doubt. it's so depressing. american politics are so fucked. the republican party should be reclassified as terrorists with the amount of hate crimes they're passing as laws. the 1st amendment doesn't even fucking matter anymore, theocrats have taken over pretty much the entire government and continue to make everyone's lives absolutely miserable. what's the fucking point? even if you get a democrat elected theyre either too scared to do anything that won't get then reelected or the republicans in the senate or whatever just shut down their bills. what is going to fix america at this point when half of it is dragging us back into the dark ages and the other half is too worried about their poll numbers to do anything about it? its so hard to be hopeful for the future when everyone's rights are being taken away...
#personal#sorry im just going thru it rn#its hard to separate the depression hopelessness and the general hopelessness of living in america...#everything fucking sucks for everyone except if youre rich#dont get me wrong. having a republican in office is infinitely worse . thats how we got the insanely stacked supreme court#and lost abortion rights etc. but it just seems like. have you heard of the ratchet effect?#whenever a republican is in office the gear shifts to the right. but when the democrat is in the gear tries to go left#but is stuck in place to where the republican turned it. so it's at least not turning right. but it's not getting better!!!#i don't want shit to simply Not Get Worse. i want them to get better!!!!!!#the fucking scraps we get from biden are nothing. i want something as good that equals the amount of bas#*bad the trump did. or ideally more good#but democrats are fucking spineless cowards and all politicians care about is getting reelected so we're all fucked!!
