Spread to every American you have ever spoken to. Even just a few words.

It's time to STRIKE.

Daily reminder that in 1980, only 36% of eligible voters between ages 18-20 and 43% of eligible voters between ages 21-24 voted. In 1984, 37% for 18-20 and 44% for 21-24.

Meanwhile, in 1980, 65% of eligible voters aged 65+ voted. In 1984, 68% voted.

Republicans have a history of relying on young voters to not vote. They purposefully make young people feel discouraged; like no matter what, it won’t make a difference.

I don’t care if your state tends to always vote with one party. Get out and vote.

Especially in swing states, every single vote matters. Every. Single. Vote.

Mail in your vote. Go during your lunch break. Plan to take the day off. Your vote matters. In fact, it matters so much that people will purposefully try to sabotage you voting.

Here’s a guide on how to register to vote and how to check if you are registered. Plan ahead. Make sure you know how to mail in your vote or where voting booths will be.

Republicans have been so flippant towards Gen Z because of our historical hesitance to vote.

We have the power to make things at least somewhat okay.

I have seen so many people from Gen z saying voting for Kamala is hopeless because she’s a woman of color, citing past elections as proof.

That discouragement is purposeful. It’s been used for decades. And it’s been working.

This website is relatively young. Especially with a lot of older Gen z, including me, where this is their first or second election that they are eligible for.

Don’t listen to those saying voting is pointless. That there is no way Kamala will win so who cares? It’s absolutely okay to be frustrated and or wary, but don’t let that keep you from taking action.

Young voters are the key. Start planning on your vote now. Take it seriously. Your voice matters. Your vote matters.

Whoever voted for the corrupt clown show that is Doug Ford, go fuck yourself!

Why in the living hell would you reelect the embodiment of the Monopoly money man who is destroying our health care, our environment and affordable housing so he can line the pockets of his rich friends.

Also fuck you if you didn't vote. You are a part of the problem.

The richest man on Earth is, presumably, from what we have seen thus far, going to be an active part of our government or influential to important decisions and discussions at least. I think this is definitely where we start worrying guys!

the tumblr hot takes re: Tesla owners and saying things like ‘I spit in the door handles of every Tesla I see uwu’ are absolutely batshit lmao

because Tesla was the first all-electric vehicle highly popularized in the US. most if not all initial buyers were planet-hugging liberals who wanted to stop using fossil fuels. it started as a status symbol of ‘I could spend my money on a luxury car, BUT I care about the environment! And don’t have to give up looks or having fun driving!’

Which eventually lead to teslas being the most affordable all-electric option. For a number of years. Tesla and SpaceX, over 15 years ago, were incredibly innovative and seen as a liberation from over reliance on fossil fuels

Like. This bitch built his empire tugging on environmentalist heartstrings. The people that own teslas are not your enemy; they’re much more likely to be disgusted with Elon like the rest of us

Not to be some conspiracy theorist liberal hippie piece of shit but like… anyone else feeling like something is Off about the election tho

And before anyone who doesn’t have online media literacy goes “so yOu DoNt care that people JjuSt lost their rights” no I do bc I’m one of those people (proud triple minority), and I hate Trump and the American ChristoFascist plague that’s sweeping the nation and the deep rooted misogyny that American men hold for women and minorities. I very much care I’m also just coping lmao

But also something is wayyyyy too quiet about this election

i feel so much focus has been put on the presidential race specifically that people are forgetting how much power congress has in determining the laws of this country & one of the best ways to help enforce an arms embargo on israel is to try to put as many politicians in congress as you can that would oppose those funding bills

october 2024 has been the absolute shittiest month across the board that I have had in a LONG time. my mom had covid at the very beginning of the month and I basically had to run the entire household for a week and a half on my own steam, I got a head cold from god knows where during that time, we went through hurricane milton like 10 days after helene, no power grid for six days, and got rear ended in a hit and run incident. immediately after the power comes back I get pulled over by a cop for the first time since 2012 for driving on the shoulder lmao, THE VERY SAME DAY I cut my fingers open in three places when a drinking glass broke in my hand while I was unloading the dishwasher and had to go to urgent care to get that shit super glued back together. the wound was right on the joint of my middle finger on my dominant hand and I could barely write for a week because pens would rest right on the injury lmao

I finally, finally managed to go back to my part time job last week, worked three days in the high school, have been juggling the absolute emotional/mental shitfest of my mother turning into a rampant donald trump supporter this entire time, dog sat the neurotic schnauzers over the weekend and got ZERO sleep, found out good omens S3 got downgraded from six fully written episodes to a 90-minute TV movie amidst the gaiman allegations turmoil, and then woke up this morning with a fever and chills and diarrhea 🤡👍 suffice to say october has been a horror show and we're not even at halloween yet. what the FUCK has been going on lmao! I know pluto is leaving the sign of capricorn soon for the rest of our lifetimes but there has to be some other hoodoo crazy shit going on because I feel like I've been through an endless battle field

Attacks ads are funny

“THIS DEMOCRAT PUSHED LIBERAL POLICIES”

yeah they are democrats … the liberal party

Be pretty fuckin weird if they were the liberal party but only pushed the abolishment of clowns or the rights of sticks and stones to break bones

Dumbfuckery everywhere these days
