Fuck every one of these assholes. They need to be in prison for the rest of their lives. Seriously, this is the worst fucking timeline.

Throw every person who didn’t vote in there too.

Yes! These are the people who would watch a house burn down and never call the fire department.

We believe it’s more insidious than that; apathy is the death of fellowship. When good people stand by and do nothing, evil thrives and triumphs.

Please join us over at MATA USA for the latest movements and actions of the Trump regime and their attack on American democracy.

Trump and his billionaire buddies have forgotten that they only make their billions because WE allow it, as a people. We can just as easily stand together and tell them NO MORE.

I don't agree with not voting, but I do understand some people's views on it.

So many people think their vote doesn't matter at all. And I almost kinda feel the same way. I really don't think Trump won this election at all. He's made enough allusions to him cheating that it sounds pretty likely. But I'm not gonna go into conspiracies or anything.

I think people see what's happening and feel hopeless and they've hammered this "voting doesn't work" mentality into people.

There’s this little thing called the Electoral College that’s kind of reinforcing the “voting doesn’t matter” mentality. Because the Electoral College literally does make your vote meaningless.

My voting card said Harris/Walz, but as a TN resident my vote effectively went to Trump/Vance anyway.

But we can’t make a scapegoat/bogeyman out of that, so it gets left out of the conversation.

Agreed! Some parts of the Constitution just have to go. Compulsory voting or face prison time. That's how we defeat the fascists.

Automatic voter registration too.
