I feel bad for the people that voted against Trump. The misery he's going to bring to the people that voted for him... I have very little sympathy for that.

When we hoped we were on the steps to becoming a post racial America. The real racists stopped hiding. They brought with them the worst of history.

We were supposed to be getting better. But, apparently, we're not.

I guess This is America.

Thanks, Childish Gambino. I knew it too. I just wanted to believe better.

Even if as a white dude I'll be okay. I know too many people in targetable categories who are devastated and who are hurting and will likely be hurt more.

About 52 percent of voters voted for Trump but just under 48 percent didn’t.

Fuck them too?

I don’t take your comment personally, but then I’m not likely to suffer.


I’m safe and secure, pretty well off while looking all cis gendered and heteronormative in the most powerful and one of the most leftist states in the US, so my privilege protects me from suffering, but a whole lot of Americans who didn’t choose this are going to suffer.

Maybe America deserves to suffer, but it’s not at all clear to me that the Americans most likely to suffer are the ones who deserve to suffer

(Current count is 51 to 47.6, or 3.4 pt margin)

Millions of votes left to count in California and other West Coast states.

Just to say - his margin is going to shrink quite a bit. More likely he ends up with 1-2 pt margin.

We have five broad groups of people impacted by this election:
1) Those who voted for Kamala
2) Those who voted for Trump
3) Those who voted for a third party, knowing how dangerous Trump was
4) Those who could vote but chose not to
5) Those who couldn't vote.

All five groups are about to get fucked. I hope groups 2, 3 and 4 get fucked the most. Sorry, not sorry.

The amount of "people do not have any idea what they're voting for" is incredible.

A friend elsewhere reported:
Quote:

Like, these are the people he wants to denaturalize and deport. Do they know that? No.

Me too, mostly. I'm going to wait at least a week before I look at election results again and see if I can understand anything about them.

I’m willing to chalk this resentment and anger up to grief and shock , for now. But if this sort of bitter angst persists amongst those who didn’t get what they voted for it’s pretty self evident where the division and strife in this country come from, if even a fraction of those feel this way.

I learned it from MAGA over the past four years. Deal with it.
