“They voted for Trump to punish the Democrats.”

Oh, that didn’t work. Losing elections isn’t the same as being punished. Not saying it was a bad move, I’m saying it was the wrong one. It was also a bad move though.

“All Harris had to do was stop the war.”

Oh is that it? Just as a VP / figurehead, swoop on over and say, “Stop it.” Man, why hasn’t anyone ever tried that before?

Dearborn, I hope your lives work out ok. You’ve really fucked up.

"We would have voted for Harris if she would just have brought peace to the Middle East!"

...

Trump was actually in power for 4 years and didn't do shit to help the Middle East. You're going to hold him accountable for that, right? There's no double standard where Democrats have to be absolutely perfect, while Republicans can be smearing shit all over the walls and get a total pass, right?

Eh. Fuck off. I really don't care anymore.

You chose this. You knew exactly what was at stake, you knew who Trump was beyond any shadow of a doubt, you knew he was going to fully enable Isreal to wipe your family off the face of the earth. You knew.

I fought all the bad faith arguments flying around here and beyond. All the "never genocide" bullshit. Every day, for the better part of a year.

But you played stupid fucking games. And now we all have to find out.

It sucks because people will suffer. Likely people I care about too. But this bleeding heart "liberal" has been bled dry. I can't muster any more fucks.

Are you imaging a world where Kamala wasn't full throatedly supporting the genocide as well? Kamala "Most lethal military", "Israel has a right to defend itself", "No arms embargo", "I'm basically Joe Biden but I want Republicans in my cabinet" Harris?

Love how one person's quote is supposed to represent Dearborn. It was literally a fuck you to dems. Everyone in Dearborn knows trump is also going to do it. Rebuking the dems for doing it was the least they could do. They gave dems every opportunity to stop it.

If all of you libs that wish ill upon them because your team didn't win had a moment of self reflection you would realize that the dems weren't saving anyone even if they won. When fascism shows up, blue or red, you fight it.

Notice how the dems aren't doing every maneuver they can to clip Trump's upcoming power. Hell a bunch voted to allow charities and other ngos to be able to be declared terrorist. Thankfully some of the lesser known dems fought it off. The party leaders are part of the ruling class.

Get off your assess and start doing some direct community support or action, no one is coming to save us, we protect us.
