i just heard one of my favorite youtubers say this meme out loud in a video and the pronounciation FLOORED ME so now i gotta know:

poll is just "which way do you say it"; tags is "which way is right", assuming your answer to "which way is right" is different to "which way do you say it". or i guess tags are also for uhhhhhh if your answer is complicated and if you wanna explain, if you have a diff way of pronouncing (pls tell meeeee), or whatever else you want, im not your parents, idk

[sunnibits]

anyways VOTE. FUCKING VOTE. PLEASE FUCKING VOTE.

i've had to sit through 5 different times Berlusconi was elected president as italians chose his poison again and again and AGAIN. so there's nothing i haven't seen or that you can say to me. but this time the whole world's getting something WE didn't choose. because once again (once AGAIN) america and her fucking exceptionalism means they can elect a fucking deranged piece of shit over 'vibes' and we all have to suffer for it.

I've decided to do myself what the cowards at Aston won't. Behold.

if trump's stupid ass wins i'm going to become an enemy of the state and not strictly because he thinks i'm a dirty queer

[musashi]

i am begging the other leftists on my fucking dash to stop reblogging anti-voting stuff until the election is over. there are so many doomers on this website who do not have the critical thinking skills to fucking use their brains and tons of them will be genuinely swayed by what they see online.

for the love of god, queue it for after november 5th. queue all your criticism for then. unleash the fucking beast after the election is over. but it is so fucking irresponsible to be reblogging that shit now.

[thedoormann]

people who don't vote can suck my fat fucking cock for real

[isa-ah]

what are the idiots going turbo racist going to do if it turns out this election was fucked on the back end and all of these numbers are bullshit?

[worrynoodle]

This is the last I will say

If you follow me and you voted republican, or were eligible to vote and refused to, block me.

I don't want you to interact with my art, fics or posts. I want nothing to do with you. You aren't welcome here.

[slightly-gay-pogohammer]

okay what the fuck am I supposed to say.

[batcavescolony]

I was talking to an idiot and I need validation.

[chomametchi]

As a non american living next to ruzzia I want to give a special shoutout to election boycotters! Not that they would care about other countries existing but hey since they didn't do shit I can just assume this is exactly what they wanted xoxo

[phosphosuppmain]

I know I've reposted some stuff about Eurovision being awful and whatever

My whole family watches it every year so I can't quite escape it- BUT WATCHING IT???

I'm fucking appalled that the UK public vote have TWELVE FUCKING POINTS to ISRAEL. you'd think we know better, we've seen what's going on, their performance wasn't fucking groundbreaking, it was average at best. We had NOTHING to vote for there, and yet all the Zionists of this shit-ass country bound together to watch this dumbass show that's meant to be JUST ABOUT MUSIC

It wasn't just the UK either, they got 300 from the whole public vote. For what? The song wasn't anything to clap for, and yet it scored so well. For once I agree with the jury and their occasional voting for everyone, as it is every year.

Of course I'm glad Nemo ran away with the victory, they deserved it, good job to them and their song. I still stand for Ireland doing a bit better than 6th because I thought their performance was stunning. But dear fucking lord.

What are we all doing with our lives.

I think the big issue with Harris is that they used up any enthusiasm they had at the outset. When Biden dropped out and Harris stepped up, there was quite a bit of enthusiasm, maybe a hope that something would change. Then Walz was picked as VP, and once again, people were excited because Minnesota was seen as pretty progressive compared to the more institutional democrats. Then, as Novemeber approached, things started to fall apart. Harris started talking about being the most lethal military and securing borders. She got approval from Dick Cheney. And for the lot who were hoping to hear something in favor of brokering peace with Israel Palestine, there was a fake Biden Ultimatum against Netanyahu and nothing was done even while Trump bragged he was talking with Bibi and actively sabotaging Biden's brokering efforts.

I've seen people blame ID politics for their failure, but feminist and queer issues weren't unpopular, per se. Many states—even red states—passed abortion and queer marriage protections. A trans woman was sent to Congress, and this is the first time two black women are senators at the same time.

I think people are tiring of institutional Democrats. There's no excitement with the DNC. Their biggest selling point they keep giving is occupying seats to keep Republicans out of it. Anyone who may have an issue with institutional Democrats are told to fall into rank to keep Trump away. So, even if logically, Trump is a massive blow to a lot of these positions, people don't want to vote for "Not Trump^tm" for the third presidential election cycle in a row. They want and needed someone to get excited about.

I was a sophomore in high school during the 2016 election. By the time Trump leaves office, I will be approaching my 30s. I know there's a lot of finger-pointing right now about who dropped the ball on the presidential election, and we can blame any minor faction we want. "It's the Latinos! It's the progressives! It's the straight white men!"

Honestly, I don't think it's any of the major voting blocks, but, as I've said, the DNC as a whole. For their stuffy suits and constant attempts at reaching across the aisle with people who spit at their existence, demean their identities. When Harris called Republicans weird, people thought we were out of the woods with overly cordial negotiating and finally got someone who was willing to play ball.

I'm in progressive spaces, so it's certainly obvious that my observation that the DNC was too moderate is biased. That said, I think it was a one-two punch of being made to fall into line then losing because of a stark drop in turn out has lead to many believing someone else didn't do their part, almost a resentful "I had to give up my aspirations for the next administration to not be Trump, why couldn't you?"

We should be holding our governments accountable for committing all these atrocities using our money and taking away our freedoms. Not be performative and pretend one of us is more moral than the other especially if you didn't vote.

I'm sending all my American friends all the best wishes and luck in getting out of this mess.
