I Want to Give Up

If George Clooney was the democratic nominee, he would have won easily.

I am genuinely disgusted at how this could even happen like this. He got the popular vote? By 5 million?

Congratulations America! Corruption, greed and hate just won.

Many terrible things are coming, but my heart is aching for Ukraine this morning...

stolen election, fake news, time to throw a hissy fit and storm the capital and then blame the feds like a pussy… I mean is there any other way to handle this?

Stop the planet and let me get off

Yeah, I'm giving up after this.

The Democratic party just can't deal with the stupidity and racism that is the American population.

I mean for fucks sake, Black and Latino voters increased their votes for Trump this time around.

Just time to hang up the hat and let America burn.

Also:

Biden got 81,282,916 votes

Harris got 66,153,556 votes

Americans didn't even bother to show up and now we have a Republicans in control of all three branches again. Yeah, there's no saving this democracy.

I've never agreed with the professor more than I do now. At least he actually has the option!

Every day I look back at one day I had in 2016 when I felt like killing myself and wonder why I didn't just fucking do it.

I'm sure in ten years, I'll look back on this and... wish I had done it now.

Whatever you do, don't blame voters though. The only people who could possibly be at fault here are Democrats. Because voters are perfect little angels. Who can blame them for their strong desire for fascism? That's just human nature after all

Why don't you guys start a revolution against first-past-the-post? Fascism has far less power that way.

Don't give up, just don't be nice to republicans. And make sure to harass the next administration for our rights. Fucking racist rapist criminals.

On the bright side, if there's no extreme corruption we won't be hearing from him starting 2029

Well, good news I guess, with the way the climate is gonna go now you won't be living long at all.

Well, time to pack up my bags. Netherlands here I come.

Remember to vote in all local elections. The more sensible people you get into office the more change you create. Look up all the candidates, even for things like education, water treatment, family court judges.

These are all offices that we vote (or not) into office.

When I went to look at who to vote for in the shitty midwest state I am from, (I am an expat. ) sometimes the choice wasn't clear. Some had no party affiliation, but those who seek positions of power often move on to other positions of power. Starting at the bottom we must vote in good people.

So I looked up their campaign websites or facebook pages, and made my choice from there. Do I want the girl with little background in the subject who has republican affiliations supporting her campaign for the office?

Or maybe the guy who runs free name change clinics for people who need it and works at the local food bank.

The choice was clear to me.

I am sorry fellow Americans. This was an outcome I had greatly feared.

Don't give up.

How old is that fuck again? Ah 78. So 82 when he's done fucking us all over.

Like I said before. I gotta get my old engine oil and start feeding it to the bunnies and the eagles that eat the bunnies. Do whales eat eagles? If not, I gotta start drinking beer so I can strangle more turtles and then feed the turtles to the whales so they all choke each other.

I could cry. I'm so disappointed in all of us.

Our deepest condolences from across the pond.

Some of us need to move to the boondocks to infiltrate. Goddammit I don't want to live in the boondocks though. >:C

Believe in people. All we have is each other. And we all need each other now.

At least he can't run in 2028 now...

If you didn’t read The Parable of the Sower and The Parable of Talents by Octavia Butler in/before 2016, now is a good time to do so.

We save us, because nobody else is.

This is what believing in elections does. Complacent on victory, depressed in defeat. Disregard elections and take direct action. Nobody can take that away from you.

You and me both farnsworth

The crazy thing is...this might be good for my country (Switzerland) since Trump was the first president to begin discussing a free trade agreement between the USA and us...

But other than that, yeah :S

Or on any planet.

"Planet..."

goddamn yanks, I get you're mad, but it ain't the end of the world. Rest of the world is unaffected by this. I'm not saying you can't be upset, please, get mad--I'd be mad. But don't invoke the world's name, please, we don't care.
