Shocking Revelation: 1 in 4 Voters Obsess Over Immigration!
A recent Ipsos Mori poll has highlighted a growing concern among the public regarding immigration, with one in four voters considering it to be among the top four most pressing issues. This places immigration on par with high inflation, the state of the economy, and the state of the National Health Service (NHS) in the minds of many voters.

i get this sick feeling that certain leftists, especially white leftists, who are abstaining from voting or voting third party & are still encouraging others to do the same while being the loudest at complaining about "vote shaming" 🙄 will be the type, if heaven forbid trump wins, to suddenly go silent on them being far left & will GLEEFULLY turn in their neighbors a la the 1940s if only to save themselves.
they've made it clear that only certain types of genocides count to them, they're ignoring actual Palestinians who are BEGGING people to vote for Harris, & they've been glossing over how trump is bibi netanyahu's preferred candidate because they need to focus really hard on punishingnthe black woman. these leftists are death cult accelerationists who are okay with fascism as long as it affects those who "deserve" it, such as citizens of the US & Ukraine & eventually the rest of Europe should trump win, NATO gets abandoned, & putin gets to do whatever the fuck he wants.
these leftists are vile. i don't care that you claim genocide is your hard line because i don't believe you. say as much as you want on your privileged soap box but i'm not seeing you go to prison for not paying your taxes because last i checked ALL of our taxes are funding this so like it or not you're just as complicit & your shiny slogan words won't be able to cancel that.
I DON'T BELIEVE YOU'RE THE HERO YOU CLAIM TO BE. you will ABSOLUTELY throw neighbors, acquaintances, hell maybe even friends & family under the bus after a period of time in order to save your own skin & please the authoritarians in charge. you're a dangerous enemy.
you have no plans about how to handle a trump presidency & all i hear when y'all claim we're already in a fascist country is you saying that without facing any consequences & you being too stupid to miss the irony. you don't know what that word means & you just want to see this country burn while conveniently forgetting you'll be burned right along with thr rest of us. it's stupidly short-sighted. you're hardly a revolutionary if you're so inclined to suicide. please be for fucking real.
#us politics#leftism#third party#third party voters#jill stein#green party#reenacting the 1940s in the worst way#accelerationists#you leftists who are working harder to make sure harris loses#makes you as bad as maga#worse even because you pretend to care about human rights lmao#fascism#american fascism#donald trump#bibi netanyahu#trump is netanyahu's preferred candidate#where is the outrage over this???#y'all are fake af to me#you're actually VERY selective about which genocide counts to you#you're dangerous traitors#idc if this sounds over the top#you can't be trusted & you actually don't care#prove me wrong by voting for harris#people actually active & making way in your alleged movement are voting for her#stop being a coward#be pragmatic#but no wait we need to punish the black woman right???#y'all are sick#project 2025#vote blue

me sowing: haha yeah voter fraud could be fun
me reaping: wtf.
#iirc i do think in my original post i said like. i would prefer for voter fraud to only be like#3-5 votes a day per person :sob: but also it does feel like#well. it is a bit arbitrary i suppose. like. if ur reading this mysterious ratgrindr voter im not so much mad at you#as i am mad at myself#bc i do feel like this is wrong. but also i dont have much precedent to go on. and i should have SET a precedent#like i guess i can go through the google sheets and manually eliminate large clusters of the same vote in the same timespan and put it back#to 5 in each voting block.#but im worried that seems too much like electioneering on my end.

Cw: abortion, miscarriage, and politics
Pregnancy and healthcare surrounding pregnancy is a politically charged conversation right now and sometimes that can make it hard to see some of the realities that pregnant people face.
According to the CDC, between 2018 and 2021 the maternal mortality rate nearly doubled in the general population and in all categories from age to race included in the data.
78% of maternal mortalities happen on or after the day of delivery. And pay attention here, 53%, which is the highest percentage of maternal mortalities, happens between 1 week and 1 year after delivery. Meaning the danger only increases after birth.
It is getting more dangerous to be pregnant in America.
As a new mom who is currently pregnant, I am surrounded by other new and pregnant moms. We sit and talk about our stories like war veterans and I have found myself growing in concern at the number of women who had complications that put themselves and/or their baby at risk. In fact, of my friends I can think of one who had no complications and we are talking people whose ages range from 21-34 at the time of birth. Ironically, the one person who had no complications does not want to have another child because she realizes how lucky she got. Uterine rupture, hemorrhaging, severe infection, preclampsia, internal bleeding, hyperemesis gravidarum, ectopic...it goes on. I'm also surprised by women who will say they had uncomplicated births and then you get to talking to them and they hemorrhaged for a month without anyone believing them or their blood pressure got so high the doctor's had to put them on bed rest and try to monitor until they couldn't delay any longer for concern about long term organ damage. Even the women who had complications that were not life-threatening have been left with disabilities no longer able to run or move their body in ways they previously could.
The dangers of childbirth are consistently dismissed and downplayed even amongst people who've experienced them. Sometimes especially amongst people who've experienced them. My guess is that external pressures and "mommy guilt" play a role in making these dangerous and physically altering experiences seem like no-big-deal. A lot of people paint afab bodies as miraculous for the ability to bear children and there is truth to that but the reality is that there will be constant conflict between the baby and the pregnant person as they fight for space and nutrients and both with be put in danger.
I say all this as a woman on my 3rd pregnancy. A pregnancy that I fought very hard for. Prior to this pregnancy, I have had two life-threatening pregnancies and one of them resulted in my daughter. My daughter who makes me sound like a cliche, like a my heart is outside of my body walking around in a toddler, and I go to bed exhausted but with a huge smile on my face because of her and I cannot wait for the next day when I get to hold her and spend time with her again. My mind is always with her, there isn't a moment of her life that she hasn't been loved fiercely. But my love for her and my willingness to die for her is a choice I made and in making that choice my experience included needing a transfusion due to blood loss from a c-section and internal bleeding a month after the fact. My recovery is ongoing. The trauma will never leave. And if given the choice I would do it all again --and worse-- for her.
I decided even after hearing all my friends and acquaintances talk about their life-threatening stories and experiencing my own that I would be brave and face my fears to give my daughter someone to walk through life with and be there with her when she's my mom's age and I am long gone. And make no mistake, I am afraid. There are a lot of potential bad outcomes. And my/our decision has already led to one.
My second life-threatening pregnancy was an ectopic. And I find the word "dismissed" almost too gentle. I wasn't just dismissed, I was laughed at by my medical care team for suggesting that an excruciating pain presenting in my lower back was an ectopic. It would be weeks before I would get care. I also sat in the hospital waiting care after an ultrasound confirmed that I had no viable pregnancy because the staff had additional concerns related to abortion laws. In the end, abortion laws delayed my care by several hours, but dismissing and downplaying women's health issues delayed my care by several weeks. Even more, the research about ectopic pregnancies, which impacts 1-3% of pregnancies, is limited which increased my risk going into my third pregnancy. The limited research is likely also connected to the downplaying of these issues.
The reality is childbirth is getting more dangerous, most of the danger happens late in pregnancy and into postpartum. I have personally witnessed abortion laws delay care and increase risk in a post-roevwade world.
Any real conversation about "women's health" not just bad-faith lip service, has to start with the women it claims to address. In a world where the politics of good Ole sexism endanger pregnant people daily, I don't know if the politics of abortion could possibly be trusted at any level to truly protect these people. Pro-life sounds righteous in theory and I can see why the term resonates with people. But in the context of women's health issues, a pro-life stance does not truly exist. With the often unspoken and growing dangers that pregnant and post-partum people face, terms like pro-life become a fantasy. Make no mistake a "pro-life" stance will kill people and-- I guess-- we live in a world where you get to decide if you want to be responsible for those deaths.
#cw: abortion#cw: politics#cw: death#us elections#abortion#politics#healthcare#finally posting this before the election#i would prefer this one not get reblogged if you happen to see this tag#no worries if not#this is a final hour plea to single issue voters

I was just wondering, about Harry's "people like me" line, I know the whole message is about being queer and etc. but the thing that confuses me is that some people is pushing that he was once in the "working class" but isn't H quite "posh" before One-D? Right? I actually don't get the narratives people are pushing tbh, what can you say about it (genuinely asking)
Well in fact I don't think he does mean queer by that, and I don't think it would make any sense if he did, if he was saying queers never get to be famous pop stars! I think that would be extremely wrong if anyone said it, but the idea of Harry saying it is especially ludicrous given his interest in and knowledge of the incredible lineage of queer musicians he is a part of, such as the 70s rockers he takes so much of his aesthetic from like David Bowie, Elton John, Mick Jagger, Freddie Mercury, and all the other artists he pays tribute to in various ways through his outfits and show playlists and so on.
I do believe he means because he's just a regular working class guy from a small town in England who got lucky on a television show. And no, he wasn't posh before TXF. I feel like that's a narrative that comes partially from images pushed by the early 1D machinery and partially from some aspects of the way his accent sounds to non British people, but while his family was not in poverty or hungry, he absolutely did not belong to a class of people who could reasonably expect to have opportunities to find themselves on the grammys stage in California without a one in ten million arrangement of lucky chances. As someone who knows him and has seen him talk many times, it was heartwrenchingly apparent how overwhelmed he was in that moment, he was shaky and had no idea what to say or if he could manage to get it out before he started crying and so he reached for a familiar thing he says every night on stage, choked it out and got off the mic. But the people watching in this case weren't his adoring concert crowd and didn't know and love him or care about that and weren't thinking about him being from a boyband or a reality show and how much people might look down on him in the industry for that, and without context (and in the context of Beyonce being denied yet another AOTY award) it wasn't the best thing he could have said. I'm glad for him that he's free of the 1D managers trying to shut him up from behind every camera, but possibly he could benefit from consulting with experts a little bit here and there. In specific, given that his analysis around his privilege as a white person is, well, not very advanced, if he wants to avoid situations where he pisses people off just like this he should hire a person of color to consult him on such things, which is in fact a thing that some white people in positions where they say things publicly do to avoid saying things that come off very badly/ are offensive on account of just being a bit oblivious.
#he means he's not a nepo baby!#and its a real point#look at who his friends are in the industry like kaia gerber or whoever#he looks at that and at himself and is like#wow#what are the chances of me being here#and he's right#plus the way people look down on him still#did anyone read that article of who grammy voters voted for with the guy who was like I didn't even listen to HsH#he was in a boyband and I do hold that against him#otoh at least people are discoursing about him winning big rather thanabou t his performance#which is very very good and I'm sure he GREATLY prefers#hopefully this discourse will distract everyone from that#poor nervous babe#blah blah blah

Deeply frustrated by the outcome of the US election, obviously, but also the friend who shared something like “a peaceful transfer of power to fascism is unacceptable.” What do you want? Refusing to transfer power to fascists would be my preference but the election happened. Refusing to transfer power to the winner is itself tyranny. I would be delighted if Biden could continue for another term. Or if Kamala could be inaugurated in January. But they aren’t wrong for setting up for a peaceful transfer of power. They don’t have any other choice because they’re not fascists.
#yes I’d prefer the Democratic Party’s version of fascism. however that would also be bad#politics#us election#I’m desperately hoping they can find some way that this election wasn’t actually for trump. but that’s unlikely#but they’re not going to ignore the outcome of the election. of the voters trump won the popular vote and the electoral college

if you think about it throwing a chess match is not unlike sincerely truncating your preferences on an approval voting system….
#like it’s sincere manipulation in the sense of (i) and (ii)#meaning the voter genuinely prefers that compromise to the alternative that would otherwise win……#pondering!!!!!!#samael speaks

#I guess I shouldn't shoot off about these things when I never studied political science in-depth#But I find it oddly impressive that nobody's (yet) come out and said#That they consider Trump the... not lesser but more preferable of two evils#*Because* he'll fuck up the USA on top of all the other countries#Which has its own appeal for those who think America is already too far gone (was *born* too far gone) and the only justice is its death#This was - for better or worse - the lesson most people take from World War II#(Not exclusively liberal or conservative *or* Western)#That a country with a long enough rap sheet can't be internally reformed - only burned to the ground and rebuilt externally#(There was a limited version of the sentiment floating around at the start of Covid I think)#(Where people called the body count and Trump's bungling response to it America/capitalism's just deserts)#(I guess they cut that out right quick)#... anyway I'm not too sure why I started writing this#Maybe because I find it headscratchy that every anti-Trump post on here talks about his malice and his incompetence in the same breath#When these two things have basically opposite pulls on the far-leftists that are (supposedly) so crucial to Biden winning#'What is good for the Democratic Party is good for America' is already a shaky sell to people who aren't lifelong Blue voters#'What is good for America is good for the world' - you try that one at your own peril
