You get what you voted for America...

[–] StarryPhoenix97@lemmy.world 8 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Trust me, I've never gotten what I voted for once. The majority of Americans havent gotten what they voted for. Of those that voted 60% didnt vote for this. And the majority of the population continued the trend of not voting.

I dont know how to fix it. You would think in a country built on the idea of keeping your guns so you can fight the government, that we would see more physical pushback.

I just dont want to live on this planet anymore.

What a disappointment the human race turned out to be.

and if you don't have ranked choice voting figure out how to GET ranked choice voting because as soon as they get you into a binary loop you're fucked

US elections are not by popular vote, it is by district vote and the districts are redrawn every election cycle giving the ability to rig the elections. This is by design to maintain slavery and is still used today. Even if every undecided voter in California voted for Kamala and she had 2 million more votes than Trump, Like Hilary did, she would have still lost.

Yep

As individuals, there are plenty of good 'Muricans

But there are a huge number of utter cunts, and their society is absolutely abhorrent

Dude... I voted for Fetterman. I honestly don't know how to change anything now that I've been aggressively bait and switched by a Republican dick. I'm a naive fool.

I already own three and a crossbow. How many guns am I supposed to own? And I own all of these guns and crossbow from before I started following the eightfold path, so I don't think they'll help me much.

Enough for your friends in the crumbles.

This is how I feel about our species as a whole.

Sure there are good individuals, but the world we've created for ourselves to live in as a species is basically a torment nexus. And it's entierly run and being supported by the worst of us, which kinda just ends up just being guilt by association because we can't escape the system we're in so defacto have to support it.
