    Nah. We’re here because braindead Americans can’t accept that they aren’t going to get a perfect candidate and are willing to burn their nation to the ground in retaliation for that.

    Adults make the right decision, even if it isn’t perfect. Adults don’t need a candidate to be perfect in order to do what’s right for their nation and themselves.

      You’re underestimating how many leftists voted for Harris despite their misgivings.

      She ran a bad campaign and didn’t convince enough voters that she was different enough from Trump and Biden to earn their vote.

      Perfect is really doing some heavy lifting. Sure shes better. I would have voted for her if i was an US-American. But shes still garbage. She kind of is controlled opposition. Making us look away from what would be actually good vs whats better than the worst option. It serves to legitimize their position in fear of the alternative. Thats not democracy. I am not saying that you should not vote, endorse or even accept the shitstain we get in the USA that is represented by Trump but running to the Democrats as the goal or seeing voting as the primary political action is a big blunder in my eyes. (again do vote).

        lololol you think this is democracy? Its not. The vast majority of both parties dont support the actions of the elected representitives. The US runs on bribes and rich people’s wishes and has for a long time. Theres a reason law enforcement dont prosecute the rich, even when they are caught raping kids on an industrial scale.

          I agree and that’s why I am not the one pretending voting is the reason for the system we have. People who blame voters will end up concluding that democracy is a mistake.
