We need an option for “I was voting Dem, and now I’m voting Dem even harder.” The debate didn’t change who I’m going to vote for, but yeah, it did change my mind. Fingers crossed that I’ll make a full recovery.

#presidential debate #us politics #american politics #us elections #election 2024 #kamala harris #voting #poll #tumblr polls #the older I get the more I realize this country is terrible #if I thought I could get my friends to move with me I’d be so gone #I want to live among the hobbits in Aotearoa New Zealand #or track down my extended family in Germany!#or find a husband with that sexy accent in Scotland #the absolute funniest thing to me is when people freak out about indigenous land back movements #thinking it’s anti white racism somehow #(We don’t have time there’s a character limit I’m not even gonna get into that)#and that it would result in the total dissolution of the United States and the reinstatement of indigenous governments #that white people - if we’re not fully evicted from the country - would have to become citizens of #now listen. that’s not what land back means. like. At all.#HOWEVER I think maybe we should #I don’t want to move if I don’t have to (all those tags above are about desperation!!!!!)#but remember that that’s not actually what indigenous people are usually asking for!#I am so on board for the rest of it.#the debate featured two people vying for power over my life. they are the only 2 options. and the electoral college means no REAL democracy #now listen. I am NOT an expert. if an actual haudenosaunee person ever says something that even vaguely contradicts what I’m about to say #but as I understand it. haudenosaunee culture featured *real* democracy AND roles specifically reserved for women!!!!!#meanwhile there are sitting senators who think we can hold our periods in like pee #that just sounds so much better #watching the debate with the knowledge that that used to exist exactly where I am was very sad and frustrating
