Relentless attack against norms and institutions eventually causes fatigue. I know people who were politically engaged during the Bush and Obama years, but now just don’t want to hear about politics anymore. People are tuning out. What sucks is that they are not properly attributing blame where it is due, and not voting to punish those causing the democratic decay.

This one makes no sense at all. No company will want to advertise there for fear of litigation.

All that this map shows is how disenfranchised people feel with the electoral college. What’s the point of voting in 43 states when you already know who the winner will be and your vote is effectively meaningless?

By the way, I voted out of principle, but I do not judge those who feel their votes don’t matter.

I choose keeping the seat empty over having Trump.

The system has failed. The founding fathers are rolling in their graves.

It’s infuriating how terrible all of these nominees are. Their only goal is to destroy the institutions.

The nagging to pay for the OneDrive subscription is something I would only see on trashy websites full of ads. I guess that’s what Windows has become.

Grifter got used and dumped. You serve no purpose anymore.

The outcome of the election doesn’t change the fact that 18% of voters wasted their vote on a Russian plant.

In the end it didn’t matter but it does matter that they knew the election was close and their protest vote could’ve very well been the deciding factor. They decided to make the statement despite the risk of having someone much worse winning. Now, go plead your cause to Trump.

He’ll likely pardon Hunter.

It makes sense. The campaign thought the fear of Trump alone would be enough to bring in the progressive voters and she would have to work on persuading the center. They were clearly wrong in hindsight.

If the argument is that Harris should’ve run a more progressive campaign, is there any guarantee that she would get more progressive votes than she would have lost from the center/independents?

The large turnout in 2020 was more driven by the will to remove Trump than to elect Biden. This time it seems they forgot how bad it was and decided to stay home.

It seems like the problem was turnout. In the last election liberals decided to come out and vote to remove Trump from office. This time they didn’t bother to vote.

This. I don’t trust the general population to analyze the economy and decide which plan is better for the country.

It’s like one candidate explaining to toddlers that they need to eat their vegetables for long-term growth, while another one wins because they offer candies today.

What does that even mean?

I would like to think that but they have their plan: Project 2025.

I think attacking Trump’s rhetoric is not a winning strategy. People are fatigued by it and it just falls onto deaf ears.

Also people are dumb and selfish. If you talk about democracy, they don’t care and/or understand what it means. All they care about is money in the wallet.

And it will only get worse with Trump and conservatives trying to end public education.
