Current Google Search Stats For "Can I Change My Vote?"

[forwehavecometothecrossroads]

I know you see those tweets that are like “X% of this minority group voted for trump.” I know you’ve seen it a few times since the election. I just saw a tweet about “64% of Native Americans voted for trump.” Then there’s this “let’s blame the Palestinians” bs. Hmmm. You know what we aren’t focusing on when we do that. That majority of the people who voted for him are white! This is a very clear tactic to have y’all infighting and not seeing what’s clear as day. The common denominator is white people. Any minority who voted him in are a fraction of the whole equation. 74% of the white men who voted (if not more I can’t remember) voted for trump. Of the white women who voted at least 69% voted for him. So maybe just maybe, focus on the real picture-white supremacy. Also those stats? Who’s coming up with those numbers? Indigenous Americans experience some of the highest amounts of voter suppression and you believe “64%” of them voted for him? Please remember what Malcolm X said, “if you control the media, you control the mind.” Think critically and remember to stop letting yourselves be used as a weapon for the west. At the end of the day, all of this is a shit show. Desiring personal comfort over global release is a sign of rampant individualism. This isn’t just about us. It’s about the dismantling of white supremacy.

We need a by hand recount of swing states.

[beauty-funny-trippy]

⠀What's very, very wrong is, America has chosen to stand with the members of the KKK, Neo-Nazis, and Taliban terrorists who have endorsed Trump. It seems that all it took was greedy corporations raising the price of groceries, for Americans to toss aside our morals, and empower racism, fascism, misogyny and project 2025 — endangering the innocent, vulnerable citizens that the government is supposed to protect.

I saw this on reddit and I thought I would share this. Here's the link to the original post and thread if anyone would like to go read OP's sources, methodology etc.

I've always thought of Texas as neither red nor blue state but a non-voting state and this seems to really drive it home. And if Texas looks like this what do other states look like?

I'm still processing the election results myself, but I thought this might be worth sharing as we all plan for the next four years.

TLDR: Possibility that 32 bomb threats were for eventually discrediting alterations to tabulation databases

Soooo, someone named Stephen Spoonamore is posting on spoutable that it's possible the 32 bomb threats were to break chain of custody, and cover up a hack to the tabulation systems in those counties. The link to this can be found here.

I have no clue how credible this guy is, nor am I any expert on the claims he's making. Therefore, I'm just sharing this and make no comment agreeing or disagreeing with these claims. While I haven't yet found the tv show he mentions being in, he's mentioned on the wikipedia article on Premier Election Solutions (Edit history indicates his name was in the article since at least 2011)

edit: clarified tldr

edit 2: the first entry in the thread is marked with an accuracy alert; however the author of that alert appears to have conflated Spoonamore's statements with something else.

@ sweethousewife "such BS democrats don’t ever want a republican in office ever, to the point they scream and cry accusations that to me isn’t democracy "

That's Trump and the republican party, not democrats. Trump has said quite a few times that he wants to get rid of his political opponents, and he has also tried to manipulate the election results both directly (asking for someone to "find 11780 votes", i.e. the Trump-Raffensperger phone call) and indirectly (create a conspiracy theory about voter fraud). I have yet to see the same level of "scream and cry accusations" from democrats.

"also I have links showing how much the left has lied and taken ballots from 2020 in Az and Pa."

Provide the links. If you don't, it just sounds like another conspiracy theory created and perpetuated by Trump and his supporters.

"if you wanted democracy you’d of been supportive of what happened to roe v wade because it alllowed the citizens to vote on it WHERE they live instead of the exactly opposite would of been to keep it national and federal."

Literally nobody is talking about democracy in regards to roe v wade. They talk about freedom. Taking away someone's rights is inherently anti-freedom.

All of this!

Adding too that there have been multiple investigations conducted by Republicans and none could find real evidence of voter fraud.

And going further on the anti-freedom point, this also pretty much sums up why Democrats might not ever want a Republican in office.

Because there is some truth that if you campaign on taking away people's freedom, a lot of the people whose freedom you're directly threatening to steal won't want you governing them.

It's nice that @sweethousewife gets to run a blog dedicated to being a "trad wife" that centers her identity around her marriage. But since she's been married over 11 years, we should note that when she first married, queer people weren't provided that same right. And it was largely because of Republican opposition to allowing that.

As of 2024, a majority of Republicans still don't support gay marriage.

And most demographics won't want people in office who are actively trying to deprive them of their freedoms.

Importantly though, not wanting people who are trying to take away your rights in office isn't anti-democracy, even if the people are Democratically elected. Anti-Democracy is when you lead a violent attack against the Capitol while calling to hang the Vice President for certifying the Democratically elected leader.

even $1 / €1 / £1 helps

i've been feeling incredible anger and frustration lately with these posts lamenting what the next four years will look like in the u.s., how much "worse" things will get under the trump administration, as if we haven't been witnessing a holocaust for the past year funded by the biden administration. if you have seen a single video from gaza, a single picture, read a feature from a gazan journalist, spoken to a single person in your inbox when they plead for your attention and help, words like "worse" or "better" turn to ash in your mouth. just yesterday my friend hilda texted me that even when her family manages to get food, smoke from the fire needed to cook aggravates her sinus allergies, making it difficult to breathe. this is how she's been living for the past year and a month, under a democrat-funded genocide.

below is a small fraction of the palestinians who have reached out to me for help with their campaigns. it is a huge source of shame to me that i can't keep up with all of the people in my inbox. please go to their accounts and read their stories. and please give what you can spare.

2nd Annual (Not really) TF Advent Calendar

Okay...

So I debated on whether or not I'd do this again because of work, but I figured that since things are FINALLY starting to calm down at work, so I should have the opportunity.

Back when I had my old Tumblr, I did an Advent Calendar where I TF'd hot, sexy guys in various ways.

Well, now it's time for Round 2!

Send me some men!

It's simple:

Comment or message me a name of a guy who you thing should be transformed during the Holiday Season.

I will compile a secret list and make sure that I get the votes and comments written on there so that it's more of a suggestion/voting hybrid.

Then on December 1st, we will start having some Transformation fun that leads up until Christmas Day!

I look forward to seeing who you'd all like to mess with :) I will keep voting/suggestions open until December 1st!

Please no one under 18, no political figures, no one from media meant specifically for minors! I am fine with fictional characters, so long as they are men since I prefer to TF men.

with the current decline of american politics, it’s important to remember that as funny as it is to look on at other people’s downfall and go “haha they brought this on themselves,” non americans need to remember so many of us are not the ones that brought this, not the ones that chose this, and yet are the ones suffering the consequences

57% of florida voted yes on 4. it didn’t pass even though it was an obvious majority because it wasn’t a supermajority

the overturning of roe v wade was out of the hands of the people. no matter how vocal we were, we had no real say

the presidential race was very close and there were issues with so many mail in ballots (there’s so many reports of things like damaged ballots, ballots getting rejected for “signature errors” and other nonsensical issues, people not receiving their ballots at all (a big issue at my college in the tampa bay area of florida due to back to back hurricanes), and even burning mailboxes). and there are people who live in america that aren’t allowed to vote (many immigrants aren’t allowed to vote on their own rights)

there have been protest after protest against the don’t say gay bill and advocating for trans rights. we are trying so hard and have been trying for a long time to keep this from happening. there are even calls for a recount of the presidential votes. the people suffering the consequences are the ones who tried to prevent them. we did not bring this on ourselves

so please, as funny as it is to look on and laugh at the state america is in and will be in (and i get it, the political and social climate here is unwelcoming and absurd), remember that the ones affected most by the regression of american rights are those of us who did not choose this. everyone will be affected (aside from the wealthiest of the wealthy), and the consequences will catch up to the people that did choose this (and i worry for them too). but the ones hurt the most are the ones who were spoken over

so please use empathy. solidarity. kindness. we’re scared

sincerely,

a young american man who is trans, queer, and biracial

Trump’s fascism revival faces working-class resistance

By Gary Wilson

Trump’s anti-immigrant rants are meant to whip up racism and are a diversion from the real cause of the loss of jobs and housing — the capitalist profit system.

Trump’s policies won’t stop U.S. capitalism’s decline. But their purpose is to enforce austerity while diverting working-class anger away from the capitalist ruling class.

They won’t succeed, however. The opposition is already there. Around 40% of those registered to vote did not do so. Although Trump got 51% of those who voted, he actually got only 28% support of people of voting age. Three out of four in the U.S. did not vote for Trump. There was no overwhelming mandate for Trump or his policies.

This opposition can be mobilized into action to put a stop to the racist attacks, the anti-trans assaults, the sexism, and violations of women’s right to make their own choices, the union-busting and economic hardship.

Dear Trump voters/supporters.

Straying far from close retreat,

Getting lost in deadly lies,

Now you cheer for her defeat,

As your ‘saviour’ sheds his guise.

Your ignorance lies deep, so deep within your pores,

Through anger, spite, and fear, you rot down to your cores,

Till nothing’s left but hatred, too ugly for view,

And only then, you’ll know too well, no one's to blame but you.

So take your pride and flags, your fear for the unknown,

Drag it all to isolation, to your superior throne,

Where every flower weeps, where love is a facade,

Where selfish blindness leads, where a fraud becomes a god.

I can only truly hope, that raw coldness of regret, or the bitter grasp of truth, takes you bloody by the neck.

I wish that you would suffer, just as those you’ve torn have too,

That you could feel their anguish, that you could feel it too.
