And I rapped my knuckles and the Trump one hurt more

i cannot parse this. he did something to his knuckles (rapped i usually think of as like knocking on a door. [Source: E. A. Poe, The Raven.] but maybe someone from North Carolina can help with this dialect's variant?) and it hurt more when he knocked for Krasnov? So he voted Krasnov because pain equals vote? Something tells me if he rapped his knuckles and Harris hurt more he'd've thought up a way that meant vote for Krasnov anyways.

Cry more, shitass. I have absolutely zero fucking sympathy for people who were too dumb to understand the implications of the policies he was pitching.

Hope these imbeciles become destitute, and get to see the other side of the equation they thought they were on the right side of. And I say that primarily because conservatives need bad things to happen to them, personally in order to change their opinions. So yeah, I hope it changes their opinion, but I’m not giving them a free pass for what they enabled and supported.

Good. Go fuck yourself.

So sick and tired of having to pretend to give any shits about these selfish, miserable, stupid fucks.

When the second civil war that they set us on the path to comes, they're as much the enemy as any ICE officer, and I hope people remember that.

Well it's a bit sad 50 people lost their job because of it. And I'm sure there's a few that didn't vote for him.

[–] mycodesucks@lemmy.world 10 points 6 hours ago

It is, sure... but I'm gonna take a wild logical leap here and assume the kind of person who makes decisions by rapping their knuckles and voting for fascist pedophiles wasn't the kind of boss that was giving these employees a healthy work environment.

It stings for them now, but I'm not going to be tricked into feeling bad for this idiot losing his business just because he's holding 50 other people economically hostage.

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 7 points 6 hours ago

About a month old, but I will repeat my earlier comment with profanity. Zero fucking sympathy and your dumbshit racist ass voted for it. Go piss in the wind.

“I voted for Trump all three times. Yep. I did,” he admits. “But I literally was in the voting booth. And I rapped my knuckles and the Trump one hurt more, and that was the one that I voted for. Because it was just, it was so disgusting and, and I hate to say that, but that’s literally how I made that choice.”

These people are so fucking stupid. I don't know how else to describe it. You voted for him because your knuckles hurt more?

Even after losing his business to Trump’s policies, he stands by his vote: “Given the two people running, regardless of what they said on the campaign trail, I would’ve voted for President Trump again.”

Fucking stupid and unapologetic. That tracks.

His brother Stephen agrees: “I don’t think I had a choice to vote any other direction.”

Stupid runs in the family.

Disordered people never want to see their misfortune as the direct consequences of their own actions. They want to place the blame elsewhere. Accordingly, as the Trump presidency becomes a nightmare, it isn't their fault. They didn't have a choice. They were misled. The other side would have just done the same thing, only worse. They'll make up all sorts of things in their mind to excuse themselves and their role in creating this nightmare.

I mean, he's so stupid that he's admitting he's a racist and/or sexist. So there's that.

[–] pdxfed@lemmy.world 14 points 10 hours ago

Cut off one's nose to spite one's face. Standard genius stuff. If they were only hurting their own faces no one would care who they voted for. Testament to pride and ego how far people are willing to go to ignore reality or not course correct a past mistake.

You don't understand. Kamala was going to trans all the kids or something

i just gotta beg the question.. why. what the fuck is happening that trump fixed that was absolutely worth losing everything. please tell me. what boogeyman are you actively happy about stopping while also losing a 5 generation family business to?!

fucking brainwashed fox news viewers

These people will spend their golden years on food stamps working for Walmart and still blame anyone other than themselves for their failed lives.

what the fuck is happening that trump fixed that was absolutely worth losing everything

they hate minorities, gays, and women more than they love having a livelihood. they will gladly suffer ultimate hardship if it means those groups have it worse than they do

I saw a post from someone who said that, since the system had always kinda worked for him, he assumed it worked for everyone. And once he realized that wasn't true, and that differing perspectives brought value to both his life and his product, he changed.

This is a family who, aside from Faux "News", has always had the system kinda working for them, and they don't understand (see: Faux "News") that [a] the system doesn't work for people who aren't white male business owners, and [b] the system can very easily stop working for them as well.

[–] hovercat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 7 hours ago

I think it's a combination of ignorance/mental protection. It's mentally taxing and depressing to realize that so many people are being oppressed by the system due to no fault of their own. It's the reason there's such vehement backlash against teaching any amount of critical theory in the US, because it basically amounts to realizing "everything you ever knew was a lie, and life is profoundly unfair". It's deeply unsettling to think that someone is suffering because of random chance and the systems we've built, so instead you reject it and comfort yourself by victim blaming instead, because then you don't have to worry about falling into that same hole.

They're murdering people in Minneapolis, I don't give a shit about your lumber mill, and I hope you get turned down for unemployment, Medicaid, TANF and SNAP.

[–] Railing5132@lemmy.world 8 points 8 hours ago

And they'll blame everyone but trump, conservatives, and MAGAts.

Way to go you dumbass

[–] Feyd@programming.dev 6 points 10 hours ago

Petit bourgeois getting massacred. Who could have predicted this!?

[–] jaselle@lemmy.ca 1 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

This kind of anecdote is not very useful. In a country with 300 million, whichever way the election had gone there would be stories of people regretting their vote. Although less captivating, it's better to post articles about stats and trends.

[–] greygore@lemmy.world 6 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

What makes you believe he regretted his vote?

Even after losing his business to Trump’s policies, he stands by his vote: “Given the two people running, regardless of what they said on the campaign trail, I would’ve voted for President Trump again.”

[–] KingPorkChop@lemmy.ca 1 points 5 hours ago

He basically said, hindsight being 2/20, he wouldn't change a thing.

He didn't regret anything. He's just an idiot.
