Trump was elected. This isn’t what I wanted, but I’m trying to stay positive and not worry so much. The people have the power to make choices and work and campaign and support what they believe in and I for one want to take advantage of that. I want to help those that will be affected in the coming years and stand for what I believe is right. What resources, campaigns, protests, anything should I and others be aware of? What can we do to make the change we want to see?
Don’t bank on that being the case. American democracy is literally dead as of today. The president elect is a felon with an IQ lower than his age, we’re cooked.
And his VP is a literal Theocratic White Nationalist, commonly referred to as a Christofascist.
I think there is a high likelihood we will see President Vance before the end of this second Trump term. I can’t really tell which is worse.
This doesn’t really make sense.
He has won because more people voted for him in a democratic election. That’s literally democracy in action.
You might not like the result (it’s frankly bizarre from an outsider’s POV), but that doesn’t mean “democracy is dead”.
In a democracy it is possible to democratically elect an anti-democratic leader. It’s one of the ironies and paradoxes of democratic political systems. I think if you study history some more the world should start making more sense for you.
Thank you for being patronising, I understand it perfectly well.
I’m trying to bring a semblance of reality to the mass hysteria.
I’m sorry you feel patronized, that wasn’t my intent. It seemed like you were just really ignorant, I didn’t realize you were pretending not to understand. Now I don’t understand how you pretending to be ignorant brings a semblance of reality to anything, that seems very counterintuitive to me.
