Comment on 'Why don't we call it Mexican America?': Claudia Sheinbaum hits back at Trump
LucidNightmare@lemm.ee 6 days agoWhile I respect what you are saying, now was not the time for people to be spouting all of that when a literal orange idiot, who everybody knows has a rabid fan base cult that would vote for him even if he shit and pissed on them, was running. It was just stupid. If Kamala had won, then immediately on inauguration day, we could all start voicing our opinions just as loudly as those people were doing before a major election. We would’ve had a whole 4 years to get together to do this to drive the point home further.
But no. We were too busy trying to get people to not vote at all, or to vote third party. This is the direct result of that.
Do I think Democrats are great? No, not really, especially now. It would have been a hell of a lot better than this god damn shit though.
Oh well. Too late now.

Bro, it is likely 100,000 people (mostly women and children) are dead.
Even if Arab Americans voted at the same rate as 2020, the outcome would not have changed.
The reality is that incumbent governments around the world, regardless of political orientation, have been getting tossed out of power due to inflation and cost of living pressures.

and those numbers will skyrocket with Republicans in power as weapons flood into Israel.
Let’s not pretend Republicans aren’t going to actively make the situation 1000x worse compared to the dems.
