Trump won't respect the results of an election?
Don't like the result? Rigged!
He will*
*as long as it's in his favor...
Hey. How you make tiny text !? I wanna make tiny text!
Like he was going to take back NYC?
A good 55% of us knew that going into 2025
but half of those decided they had better things to do than voting against it
The Democratic party's refusal to stop red state governments' voter suppression efforts or do much of anything else will tend to have that effect
Oh boo the fucking hoo; US citizens need to get up off their ass and take responsibility. They shouldn't need handholding to vote against fascists when they have the chance.
In the southern states, people were getting arrested for handing out water to voters standing in 8+ hour lines that stretched multiple city blocks in 90 to 100 degree F heat (that's almost 38 Celsius) with no shade in states where Republicans shut down voting centers in and around traditionally leftist areas mere days before the election, forcing multiple voting districts to travel by car to the single open voting center miles away in a Republican district.
Voter suppression in this country is on a scale that most Europeans would think to put countries like Russia on.
Like clockwork the lemming blames democrats for things republicans do.
What's funny, in a sad disturbing way, is everyone I know who was an anti-govt conspiracy theorist said the "next democratic president" wants to turn this country into a Police state, thought crime big brother blah blah blah, round up citizens into FEMA death camps, sharing pics of old "purchased" railway hubs with barbed wire pointed inward, they're gonna send black helicopters and black suited troops to rip people out of their homes and put them in internment camps...
..turns out they were right but it was the wrong party. Most of the are celebrating now and guess who they support
Yes, we realized that back when they started shooting and killing us with zero consequences. Thanks so much for your concern.
It always has been fascist

Oh boy yep, that's a fasces
Fucking hell, where is that?
Edit: that's the fucking speakers chair isn't it?
That's the House chamber, not even the speaker's office, just the House of Representatives
GW some fasces.
From Wikipedia:
Two fasces appear on either side of the flag of the United States behind the podium in the United States House of Representatives, with bronze examples replacing the previous gilded iron installments during the remodeling project of 1950.
It's clear that the symbol has had widespread usage long before and beyond historical fascism. Idk if the 50s get a pass..
I really wish that the rest of the world would realize that only about 23% of the total American population actually voted for Donald Trump in 2024. Even fewer of those people actually support him now.
And while there are certainly nearly infinite arguments as to why Americans should get out and vote, the reality is that the votes of merely 74 million people are now dictating our lives of over 330 million Americans, and the rest of the world is paying the consequences of that, too. But, before anyone else, Donald Trump fucks over Americans. Over and over and over. And, at the moment, there's not a lot we can do.
The vast majority of Americans fucking hate Donald Trump. I really wish the rest of the world didn’t lump us all in with him and his supporters, which are an increasingly shrinking fraction of us.
edit: "Well, why don't you do something about it?"
he's been impeached twice and there's another impeachment cooking, and 3 of us have tried to assassinate him. so, ya know... WE'RE TRYING
TL;dr: the vast majority of Americans are good, honest folk. A small number of us are unforgivable shitbags — that we admit. But, we are not a monolith. We are in a lot of trouble, and we kind of just don’t know what to do. We’re just trying to afford rent and groceries. But we’re doing our best. And we really are trying to fix our shit. But how?
We’re trying to really really hard. And the best of us are really, really sorry
Ignore the downvotes. Sane, non-fascists should all be allies regardless of where they live. There's a good chance those downvoting have rising fascist populism threats in their own borders too.
To people are downvoting or blaming anti-fascists within the US just because they haven't "solved" fascism yet, I'll just say: if you actually care about stopping Trump and fascism around the world, try to make friends and not enemies. Fascists would prefer we fight each other.
we have a very big boat to turn around. a nation of 330+ million people is no small thing to manage. we've done the whole "political revolution" thing twice, and it cost us nearly half our population each time. we'd rather not do that again , especially if there's a better way. and, of course, there is.
but it's... complicated and it takes time.... but, with these midterm elections, there's an opportunity to make things better, or, at least, shut off the firehose of nightmares.
Thought I read something about overseas influence operations active on Reddit. Seems to make sense they'd be working other social media sites as well.
You’re all allowing it to continue. There are no “good ones.” 30 percent of you are Nazis, the other 70% are Nazi enablers or abject cowards.
You’re not “trying.” You’re waiting for someone else to do something.
Do something or fucking sit down.
Edit: removing most details, not needed.
Don't be a divider, be a helper.
"So many people forget that the first country the Nazis invaded was their own." - Abraham Erskine (as played by Stanley Tucci)
at least we can claim this over the nazis-- we know our concentration camps are concentration camps, and we're doing everything we can to constantly protest and expose them and shut them down.
our efforts thus far are... far less successful than we had hoped. but we're doing everything we can to stop it and let the world know what's happening. In that, we have been extremely successful.
And those responsible… we will make them PAAAAAAAY for their fucking crimes!
But there is a lot of shit we have to crawl through before we see that light at the end of the tunnel. And at this point,… whether we’re even going to see that light? That’s a matter of faith. Faith in the best of us.
For now, we’re navigating shit in the dark. Wish us luck. We are all going to need it.
Don't forget RGB. She stubbornly brought about the end of many checks and balances, and also set woman back a generation with the fall of roe v wade.
Fuck RGB. All she had to do was retire well past the age anyone should retire. But she needed that power, I guess. Power hungry assholes ruin everything.
Half of Americans couldn't tell the difference between Harris and Trump. We're not good honest people. There are fewer of us that are good than there are fascists or those willing to sacrifice us to the fascists.
Fun history on D.C.... When the mayoral office was created in 1802, the mayor was not elected, they were appointed by the President:
https://dccouncil.gov/dc-home-rule/
The ability to elect a mayor did not actually exist until 1973(!) and the first mayoral election was 1974(!)
Take it back where, the Stone Age?
As the wise John Oliver said a few months back: "Fuck you, make me".
Election interference from within. Is there anything not tainted by a greedy lust for power and control anymore?
Thankfully most DC residents have cast their ballots by now. Mail-in voting is incredibly easy in D.C. and those ballots went out near the end of May. Trump's late to the party. Also most folks in D.C. hate him and many lost their jobs due to this administration.
When covering most of Trump's statements, the press has to quote parts of them directly ("take back"). That's because no one, including Trump, knows what they actually mean.
Wait, social democrat or a actual democratic socialist?
One year, in Australia, a prime minister was elected by the people, who started putting in some socialist type systems and supports. It terrified the powers that be, and they all wrote letters to each other to enact an emergency coup.
Spoiler they did the emergency coup, and whereas usually if a person in prime ministership is removed, the next in power in that same party is then the next to take power, but they extended that they transferred power to the opposing party, nobody had voted in, because they supported the system staying as it is, funnelling all the money up to a select few, and keeping the mass populous scraping by. Some systems had already been implemented, though and after that both political parties continued on to work to slowly undermine and deconstruct as much of it as possible, whilst securing ownership of all the mass media, so they could take away the people's own comforts and basic needs, and simultaneously convince them they want it. They had to take away the things put in to benefit people, slowly, or the game would be up.
Bullshit.
One year, in Australia, a prime minister was elected
Why not write the year and the name of the prime minister.
Your story sounds completely made up.
Gough Whitlam.
You forgot the year:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gough_Whitlam
21st Prime Minister of Australia In office 5 December 1972 – 11 November 1975
So maybe the reversal of those policies were caused by the oil crisis that started in 1973?
The late 70's were shit economically in all of the developed world including Australia.
There is probably no conspiracy here, just unfortunate timing. Also it was half a century ago, so not that relevant today, unless you can show a trend.
You're incapable of looking up what happened to Gough Whitlam?
Absolutely ignorant to the rest of the world
You are not arguing your point well enough to make it plausible.
Maybe if you arguments had actual facts, that had actual sources, but it's impossible to spend time on every crazy conspiracy story that cross social media.
If there is no evidence provided, Occam's razor tells us they are probably unfounded.
Obviously it's not up to me to substantiate your claim. Having to drag the name out of you, and you still fail on the dates, shows that you are not strong on basic facts.
Furthermore one anecdotal story from the 70's does not show a trend, and has little bearing on the political landscape half a century later.
Of course he will do it, and get away with it.
Got it yet? THIS IS A FASCIST COUNTRY.
Socialist democrats are literal fascists.
Name 1 policy of the socialist democratic platform that is fascism.
They want everyone to vote for them just like fascists.
Thanks for playing. Unfortunately you didn’t name a policy of the platform so you have proven to everyone reading this you’re a moron. Everyone here is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul.
Please explain. To me. A person who lived for a decade under a socialist democratic government.
They provided free healthcare, free vehicle insurance, massive infrastructure improvements and employment for all the people doing those things. The problem was they racked up a huge debt while doing it, and so eventually got voted out.
You know… all the things that are opposite of what a fascist government would have done (well, except for the debt).
