With the way they’re acting, you’d think that these dudes wanted Republicans to maintain control. Like, I don’t have a lot of faith in democrats to actually get the shit done that they need to, but the defeatism is absolutely absurd.

Dems won, that’s good. They have control of the senate which they haven’t had for a while. So here’s my damper, there was anti-trans legislation passed in blue states and there was an increasing rise of anti-trans rhetoric within the Democrat candidates. I do not want the establishment Dems and their think tanks to get the take away that they won by throwing trans people under the bus. I’m still going to be critical of Dems, they have a lot to prove and should be spending these next couple months in meetings on how they deal with the fact Trump will veto everything they do. They will have to find a way to circumvent that veto pen or persecute Trump to the fullest extent possible as well as his regime.

I probably don’t understand the results fully, but it’s only 54 vs 44. 44. After all the literal Guardians Of Pedophiles did. I mean, it’s a victory alright, but idk, “blue wave” seems insanely exaggerated.

should I wade into 4chan/pol/ to drink in the salt, or is it not worth it to give them the attention and have them scrape me for whatever data might leak out? EDIT : They’re just blaming jews, but calling them “talmundists”. Also, they adapted the n-word to use against magas, by making it into an m-word and keeping the rest the same

I’ll believe in blue wave when the American empire contracts, it recalls its military, closes the global bases and releases everyone from their gulag supermaxxes

I’m realistic, but also allowed myself to be happy yesterday. Life should be enjoyed. I’m mostly excited about my local elections, as there is a much higher chances of things changing for the better in my state and county.

All progressive policies failed. Need I say more?

wtf does “level set” mean in this context?

Maybe find the middle ground? It is certainly a good reason to celebrate that republicans lost and Trump shuts up for once. It is also true that there are democrats that would just as well fit the republican party. But it is also sure as hell true that true progressives can only come out of democrats not republicans. So US should make it count, hold anti progressive, status quo democrats to account and root them out. Then it will become a flawless victory.

If I’m parsing this right… Good? Right after elections is like, the best possible time for critique. Didn’t want to say it yesterday, but fuck blue MAGA the two party system and the rachet effect. There’s no such thing as a good politician, and less bad isn’t enough. Voting is harm reduction, I’m glad we picked methadone over fent but am still looking to get clean.

We’ve seen Obama drone kill kids at weddings in Pakistan. We have seen this circus before.
