    At this point I don’t blame Republicans, they are exactly the christo-fascist criminal hypocrites that they always have been.

    At this point I don’t blame Democrats, utterly underwhelming and politically ineffective as they are.

    Nope. At THIS POINT I blame the lazy fat dumb-as-shit American fuckwad populace. “We The People” just gave knuckle-dragging fascist dipshits the keys to every branch of government as well as a mandate to do basically whatever the fuck they want for no reason other than the price of Doritos being higher. It turns out that the real enemy of the people is the American people themselves, who make the worst possible decisions and act against their own interest at every opportunity, only later to point fingers at the same politicians that they helped elect in the first place.

    In other words, if you voted for anybody but Harris I can only say “fuck you, you deserve exactly whatever is coming”.

      A lot of people here want their hands held all the way to the ballot box.

      Being unenthusiastic and unimpressed with the Democratic party is apparently a completely valid reason to not vote, allow a trump win, and then blame the Democrats.

      I mean, the GOP has done everything in its power for several decades to undermine education and clinch a near-monopoly on TV and radio media. So I think we can blame them quite a bit for how idiotic and cultish the American people have become.

        They’re evil, but they also would be completely powerless without American voters (and non-voters). Much like how the GOP enables Trump.

            Partially to blame, yes. But they made no pretense of who they were and what they wanted to do. This is largely on the voters.

      So Trump was right about the enemy within!
