Okay so I just HAD to comment after seeing this fuckery;
If you don’t know, Trump made a comment how if he gets back in office, he’ll be Dictator for a Day:
And when you couple that with his comments of wanting to rip up the constitution:
And the fact he’s buddy buddy with fucking DICTATORS:
And STOLE CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS FROM THE WHITE HOUSE:
How the FUCK can these people claim they’re “True ‘Muricans’” yet support a fucking TRAITOR?! Not even joking, Trump is a fucking TRAITOR and we should ALL prevent him from coming into the White House because he is a THREAT to America’s security.
Sorry for the rant I just had to say this because these dumbasses do NOT know what is in store for a dictatorship.
Basically your life will no LONGER be your own and EVERYTHING you do will be in the hands of the government. EVERYTHING from internet usage to the clothes you wear.
Let’s prevent all of this by voting blue. 🙏
Dropping f-bombs on the job while dealing with fuckery just makes me like her even more.
I can't wait to cast my vote on the ballot 🗳️ for her come November.
The MSM is a thirsty bastard

"so you think supporting genocide is okay if it keeps your country from facing genocide?"
So you think supporting genocide is okay if it means keeping another country from facing genocide?
This isn't a sentiment I actually carry, it's an example of how incredibly easily your own stupidity can be flipped around to make the exact same point in the opposite direction, it's a wild goose chase of a sentiment that does nothing but keep us fighting with each other instead of focusing on ways to actually fix the problem.
Genocide isn't fucking okay regardless of who is facing it, but being aware of the reality of the situation is what gets us closer to ending it, not abandoning any hope or sense we have to let more fucking genocide happen as some sort of Gotcha to politicians who won't be effected by the slash of millions of people's human rights and safety.
Here is the reality of the situation, we live under a two party system, no third party presidential candidate has won an electoral vote in since 1968 and no third party presidential candidate has won an election At All since the founding of the Republican party in 1854. You are meant to campaign for candidates you want to see in office, months or years before the primaries, for the best chance at getting someone you agree with completely, and NONE of you fucking did that, you did what you always do, and got pissy a few months before the election and started pushing for your candidate way too late. Consider campaigning for their election in 2028, but that's not relevant right now.
Our options right now, are:
Trump, who has promised further aid to Israel, cutting aid to Palestine and Ukraine completely, pulling out of NATO, the criminalization of LGBTQ+ existence, deportation of anyone he deems un-American (this includes natural born citizens in immigrant families, people he doesn't agree with, and more) sending the military to deal with Any protests as violently as they can, raising taxes on the lower and middle class and cutting taxes for the rich, slashing Medicaid, medicare, and social security benefits, cutting our infrastructure budget, and enforcing the death penalty for sex crimes against children which again, he considers drag and trans existence in public a sex crime against children, that's not a good thing. You can look up his statements, agenda 47, and project 2025 yourself, this isn't a joke and none of it is an exaggeration.
Or Harris, who DOES support Israel as a long time US ally, and HAS condemned pro-hamas sentiment protests, but ALSO HAS already attempted to halt bomb shipments to Israel, pushes for larger amounts of Palestinian humanitarian aid, criticizes Netanyahu's ignoring of international law, stands for the recognition of Palestine as a state, helped draft a permanent ceasefire proposal which she continues to push at Netanyahu, boycotted Netanyahu's congressional address, altered title IX and title X to include protections against discrimination for gender identity, wants to pass bills to cap rent and raise taxes on wealthy real estate conglomerates, refused to seek the death penalty for any crimes she held court over as a prosecutor, created an anti-human-trafficking task force with a focus on specifically sex crimes under that umbrella, wants the repeal of roe v. wade undone and it codified, wants term limits added to currently unlimited positions, mainly the supreme court, (I'll add here that the next president will potentially get to place 2 supreme court judge replacements,) helped alter labor laws to better fight union busting tactics, and was a part of getting the infrastructure act thats currently starting to plan for America's first high speed rail system in place. Many of these things happened under the Biden administration, of which she's a key player as vice president, but unsurprisingly you don't hear about them from media outlets that make their money on outrage rather than hope.
By all accounts and purposes, Harris is a god damn saint in comparison to Trump. She's not perfect and her bullshit with supporting Israel is infuriating, but it's not the only thing you should be focused on, and you need to keep in mind that voting isn't your main source of resistance, it's what AMPLIFIES YOUR OTHER ACTIONS OF RESISTANCE. If you don't vote, you're screaming wildly into the wind for change, if you vote, your standing right in front of the candidate with a megaphone, screaming directly in their face, got it???
You want change? You need to actually elect the person who advocates for any of that change, not throw a fucking fit that she's not advocating for all of it right now, and let the mother fucker advocating for literally none of it win. Y'all are going to get us killed and get nothing done in the process.

Putting some positivity out there about the election
Harris has raised a record amount of money from small donors after Biden dropped out, in addition to being able to access all the funds from their campaign they already had
Trump is deeply unpopular and people have already seen the chaos that 4 years of his presidency would bring. A lot of people have been energized to vote against him, even if they're not fond of Dems
Polling showed a red wave for Republicans in the 2022 midterms, and yet they only barely had control of the House, and couldn't even agree on a Speaker for a historic amount of time. Dems also increased their lead in the Senate. Historically, midterms favor the opposition party and have lower turnout, so this is a good sign for the House in 2024
Dems are fighting back in swing states. PA and GA both put in Democratic senators in the midterms
In my home state of PA, I am from Bucks County, which is a swing county for the state. Moms for Libery took over the school board and used it to attack queer students, enact book bans, and funnel money to themselves and the superintendent. At the most recent election, Dems turned out and took back every single open seat, ousting the board and superintendent. Worry about similar takeovers in surrounding school boards also increased turnout
Abortion rights are on the ballot in many states, which has been a winning issue for Dems and increased turnout
Republicans were prepared to attack a feeble old Biden who isn't the strongest speaker. I don't think they expected him to actually drop out, and they now have to put an 78 year old convicted felon up against a prosecutor
Awareness of Project 2025 and it's contents has entered the public sphere and is being much more openly discussed on the news. While Trump has insisted he has nothing to do with it, most of the authors worked in his administration and Trump has worked closely with the Heritage foundation
Feel free to add more things on this thread, but the most important thing is to get out there and VOTE
Vote for President
Vote for Senators
Vote for Congresspeople
Vote in your local elections
Vote Blue down ballot
