I hope everyone suffering is a MAGAt
It’s outrageous. We have enough food for everyone on the planet. How much gets thrown out in the name of capitalism? And these poor misguided souls still blame Biden for this. I have pity for them, but I also think they need to learn the hard way that how they vote impacts them in a million different ways. I just wish their dependants didn’t have to suffer with them.
They should be cheering this victory over socialism.
If they’d just depart the last of the immigrants, we’d get those jobs
–Red States Probably
Have the day you voted for.
I just can’t muster any sympathy anymore. I feel bad for their kids, but these people gleefully voted for monsters, and don’t get to act surprised when they become the monsters’ victims.
They’re monsters too (not the kids).
They’ve spent a decade ignoring all facts. All pleas from their family, friends, and fellow Americans to look at things objectively and reasonably. They’ve sacrificed everything to support a felon rapist pedophile and his sycophants. That makes them monsters too.
Awww. Poor red states. Vote
Democrats fault.
/s
If they think the red states are goijng to learn any lessons at all, they will be sorely mistake.
Also, the real pain starts after mid-terms when grandmas medicade and medicare run out. Have fun moving grammy into your trailerhouse fucking red state losers.
I’v been watching this with something almost approaching glee.
A lot of the polling places in my red state are in nursing home lobbies. This means it is much, much easier for Ida amd Gertrude to come downstairs and vote strait republican, so they can get Ike into office or something. Some of them have no idea who they are voting for, or worse they see trimp as a towering intellect because he talks exactly like they do.
These people can vote without even going outside. The rest of us have to deal with bosses not letting people vote, or traffic, or no vehicle to get to a polling place, or any number of barriers that a senile old person in a nursing home won’t have to deal with.
My glee comes from the fact that they are voting themselves homeless. Their children don’t have a trailer. They may have a 2 bedroom apartment. They cannot take care of their elderly relatives, or worse, they are already caring for another. There just isn’t any room for them, there isnt anyone to care for them. Everyone has to work.
By and large, the people in the nursing homes voted for this.
If they are starved slowly and piecemeal then there may never be enough desperate people to act together effectively. If they are being starved quickly, then I’d wonder who is trying to aim them and where?
They deserve everything they get. I feel so sad to all of those who are against the regime but still have to suffer from these decisions. Makes my blood boil.
And yet, to many in those states this will be the fault of the Democrats.
I had to do a double take at the date on that link. Unreal, yet totally believable unfortunately.
This is what happens when Fox is basically the default news channel in your town. All you hear is Trump blaming Biden.
You rarely hear the truth. 1) The Iran war raised the price of oil and fertilizer. 2) Tariffs are paid by you, not them. 3) Undocumented migrants are the low-paid labor for the ag industry, and Trump is deporting them.
No sane person would do this shit if they wanted to make groceries cheap.
Let’s just fucken split already and let them have their backwater country. Its not even worth it anymore. You cannot help these people. There is no cognitive function left to save.
Honestly a civil war would be much more plausible if it was geographically based. However majority of the skew is urban vs rural which makes it a lot messier and less likely.
So a post-apocalyptic fantasy rural frontier/urban civilization center split is fully within the realm of.possibility.
With US cities and states beibg pretty autonomous most things considered (for now at leas), it could easily happen without the US splitting as far as the world map goes.
Individual US states cant leave peacefully, or the US west coast would have long ago. Our federal laws wont allow it-- its basically declaring war. Except for texas, they made a deal when they joined that they can leave when they want to.
If Canada/Britain or Mexico would agree to take the defecting states on they’d stand a snowballs chance, but otherwise not so much.Its all good, kinda feels like collapse is coming anyway. Can’t leave what doesn’t exist anymore.
They’re a threat together and a greater threat apart.
How so?
Wouldn’t red states economies collapse if they were no longer subsidized/financed by the federal government and blue states?
They’ll always be good for cheap labor and no regulations. Think how we spent the last half century outsourcing everything to China or India, it’ll be even better outsourcing to a third world hellhole close to home
Wouldn’t red states economies collapse
Yes, and they’d presumably lash out against the “blue haired woke liberals” in neighboring states. They’d be a raid-based society by the end of year one.
They would become violent almost immediately
And then, what? They sit there and quietly starve to death?
They would naturally come to terms with the practical limitations of their ideology and change accordingly. Or scapegoat their neighbors and go on a murderous rampage.
Ok
You know all of these people will 100% be writing in Donald Trump in 2028
Good, it’s a wasted MAGA vote.
Enjoy the day you voted for
Hope it hurts.
Pain is the only way conservatives can learn. Not that I’m holding my breath for them to learn anything. I’d have had to hold my breath for over 40 years now.
At this point I’m just hoping nature weeds enough of them out that they can’t represent a valid voting block anymore.
They are going to blame Democrats.
I think Chomsky talked about this when discussing the “Angry White Male” phenomenon back in the 90s. That’s why things like Faux were running at a loss for something like 5 years, why there is wingnut welfare everywhere, why hate radio is everywhere, why the Regnery Press exists, and so on.
They are happy if these people are angry (and they are justified to be angry) and then they can “educate” them as to how it’s the fault of uppity women, people with degrees, liberals, people in cities, POC, gays, trans, foreigners who are not “grateful” enough, and definitely the fault of the Democrats…
