"If you don’t vote Blue, then it’s your fault for the genocide of the Palestinian people in the imaginary future inside of my head where a Republican President backs an ongoing genocide rather than our incumbent genocide-backing Democratic President. "
“You can’t expect Joe to magically stop enabling genocide overnight! He needs more time to stop enabling the genocide he’s enabling! It’s a big and difficult change to make, as we’ve always enabled this genocide!”
“Remember that time when the Cheeto said something stupid? Haha let’s make a joke about the Cheeto conducting a nuclear holocaust against the most oppressed people in the world, who have already been THREATENED WITH THIS!”
“The Dems would need an even larger majority over the Republicans to take any action against the largest recipient of our foreign aid spending.”
Is this not the shit they’re saying?
Trump’s election may have seemed suitable or fitting given the reputation of the average American, but I’d strongly hesitate to call any part of it “democratic.” Maybe within the bounds of the Republican primary, sure, populism succeeded. But he literally did not win the popular vote, while all sorts of media manipulation and voter suppression fuckery was going on within the Democratic establishment and among minority districts.
I agree with the sentiment though. Trump is a perfect symbolic stand-in for the absolute worst elements of America’s culture.
