#go vote y’all

[centipede-legs]

i voted on friday, and the guy who was helping me do all the sign up stuff said “sorry we all really messed up everything for your generation… like really left everything in a mess”, and i didn’t know how to respond so i just said “hey, it’s okay, man. you didn’t know.”

[hamletthedane]

y’all want a commune but you can’t even handle one (1) voting block lmao

[outerspacebassman]

Mission accomplished

Let’s see if the local board of elections wants to fuck with me today

[hella-marshmella]

To all the dumbasses who voted for TFG because they think he’ll handle the economy “better”

[tightjeansjavi]

knowing that Pedro woke up feeling the same sense of anger as everyone is, is really comforting tbh. I just know that if he ever crossed paths with Donald Trump, he wouldn’t hesitate to punch him in the fucking face 😭

This 4th of July I’m stealing the patriotism euphoria that’s usually associated with assholes idolizing the worst attributes of this country because fuck ‘em I live here too and remembering the things this country actually got Right is an important exercise when trying to rally anyone to want to defend it in November SO putting my money where my mouth is I’ll start easy and say I really like National Parks!! It’s rad how many of them there are and how they’re actual set up to preserve some of the most beautiful wild areas in our country while still letting people visit to enjoy and experience nature!! (Less important but I love how they put national parks on the quarters I think that’s real fun)

Feel free to add on if something speaks to ya!

[pocketsizedquasar-3]

you know. white liberals would be far less annoying (still deeply annoying) and far less difficult to take seriously (still deeply difficult) if they stopped lying to themselves and everyone else about what they were doing. ‘cause y’all either sound completely stupid and removed from reality at best or violently callous at worst.

(and before anyone fails their reading comprehension here, i am not telling anyone to vote or not vote or who to vote or not vote for. get off my dick.)

but no, you’re not doing “real leftism” by voting for kamala (something i have actually seen countless people say. “real leftists” would vote for kamala!!1!!1!! if you don’t vote for her ur not a “real leftist!!!!”). that’s not what that is. words mean things. you’re actually engaging in pretty textbook liberalism. it’s not “real leftism” to vote for a genocidal fascist who is actively employing genocidal fascistic policies both overseas and domestically, and who has pledged gladly to continue doing so. (again, bc this is the bad reading comprehension website, i’m not telling you if you vote for kkkamala ur not a “real leftist” (mostly because that’s meaningless); i’m saying that that act itself is not a """leftist""" action). if you feel the need to justify what you’re doing to yourself by pretending you’re doing ~real leftism~, stop.

you're not “stopping fascism” or “saving democracy” or whatever else. you’re not “stopping fascism” by voting for a fascist. you’re not “saving democracy” by voting for a fascist. if you genuinely can’t see in this current moment that kamala harris & the democrats are fascists, you are deliberately ignoring and excusing fascism as long as it’s happening to nonwhite people. it is willful, deliberate ignorance at this point and it is violent. you genuinely do not see victims of fascism unless it happens to white people.

you’re not “protecting palestinians” by voting for kamala. you’re not making their chances better or being better for them or improving their conditions. you’re not “more likely” to sway kamala on palestine; you can’t even threaten to withhold your support for her because of her wanton slaughtering of palestinians. 13 months of ongoing genocide and ongoing mass protest movements and multiple polls showing that she would literally guarantee the win in key swing states if she would just call for an arms embargo / ceasefire as part of her platform have not swayed her. she constantly, constantly reaffirms her willful, enthusiastic support of this genocide. she has said over and over again that she will not end her support for israel, that she would not have done anything differently than biden, that she has no intentions to stop sending israel arms and money so they can keep slaughtering palestinians and now lebanese. you are not “protecting” or helping palestinians by voting for her. keep their names out of your mouths.

you’re not protecting """minorities""" or """poc""" either. not when the candidate is a cop whose administration has already funneled billions of dollars into the police and the military, who is priding herself on wanting to create the most lethal military, on being tougher on the border&immigration than trump, who is happily continuing to perpetuate racist atrocity propaganda to justify the mass slaughter of palestinians, who continues to reaffirm and support the escalation of imperialism and war even elsewhere in the so-called middle east, who is gladly seeking (and securing) endorsements by racist white supremacist republicans (like dick fucking cheney. come on), whose administration has been for four years enthusiastically accelerating the climate crisis, whose campaign has been littered with examples of both their supporters and the politicians themselves being virulently racist. you’re not protecting us. you’re not helping us.

your candidate wants us dead. your candidate wants me dead. your candidate wants my people in iran dead. your candidate wants my sister peoples in palestine and in lebanon dead. your candidate is actively orchestrating their slaughter.

kamala might be better for you, white liberal american. fine. vote for her if you wish. no one is stopping you. but stop white knighting about it. stop pretending you’re doing this for anyone but yourself. stop lying to yourself and everyone else about what you’re doing. stop speaking over us the with fucking audacity that you’re somehow doing us a favor, and stop talking down to us, palestinians especially, like they are children who need to be ~explained~ the right way to save them. stick your white savior complex up your ass.

vote however you want, but stop lying about what you’re doing and who you’re protecting.

and if you want my vote too? fucking earn it.

[quintin]

i would like to interrupt your scrolling and booping to remind you to vote!

(if you’re under 18, non-american, or already voted, help yourself to fruit snacks on your way out)

Miss me with the “bucktommy fans infantilize buck” bullshit because that nonsense existed long before s7 aired. I have thousands of buddie fics bookmarked and I can honestly say that I’ve read a good majority of what’s on ao3. That means I’ve come across Those lawsuit fics (you know what I’m talking about) and all of the fics that manage to center buck as the victim of many scenarios that had nothing to do with him. Let’s not forget the collection of buddie fics that had the most vile racist shit in the aftermath of 5x04 and the ones that have eddie abusing buck for no reason other than to make him some uwu victim.

And just to be very clear, the infantilization of buck took center stage when a bunch of people decided to clutch their pearls over the dinner scene in 7x10 when this man has a history of stealing municipal vehicles to fuck and having semi-public sex on the regular. No one started screaming/crying/throwing up when he very much admitted to his own sister that he uses cock rings, but the second tommy’s name entered the chat a lot of y’all lost all common sense.

Even in the last damn episode people were lashing out at tommy AND eddie for not babying buck to their satisfaction. The majority of that wasn’t coming from the bucktommy side of the fandom, folks. Are there a few bucktommy shippers that do/say/write awful shit? Yeah. But unless you as a buddie shipper are willing to take responsibility for every single rancid take in the buddie tag both here and on ao3, I’d suggest that you stop trying to lay generalizations on the entire bucktommy fandom and expecting us to do what you won’t.

Of all the languages Meme could speak and she chose the truth

Kind of annoyed by the echo chamber on here when you can just go look at the numbers. I sat up all night and watched the numbers roll in.

The big shift to the red everywhere was not because more people were voting for Trump. There was a demographic shift in who voted for Trump, which is concerning. But Trump actually got LESS votes than in 2020. The problem was people did not get their ass off of their couch to go vote for Harris. The Dems got 15 MILLION less votes than in 2020, which translates to a big red shift EVERYWHERE. Those 15 million less votes didn’t go to Trump, they just didn’t show up.

Y’all didn’t show up. And I’m very frustrated that you’re blaming Latinos or the zoomers that can’t even vote yet. If you didn’t vote, you don’t have the right to whimper and complain about this.

YOU cannot blame men of colour for this. YOU cannot blame your dumbass twitter feed. You didn’t go vote at all. And you know that. Don’t you???
