You done the right thing, don't fall for the psyops.

Kamala's campaign was not that terrible in comparison to the state of Trump. Your fellow citizens failed you by letting that eejit gain ground.

Saying they aren’t as bad as Republicans only speaks to just how awful they are, not how good dems are.

I am an anarchist. I've never voted. (Not American) But, Bush, Clinton, Obama, much of the same. Trump takes us down a dangerous path. One in which dissident and protest will be squashed.

All of which already has been going on for decades by both capitalist imperialist parties. Kent state in the 1960s for example!

Yes that’s when it started. We’re now at the exponential stage with the nations pick running on shooting protestors, executing leftists and putting ‘vermin’ in camps.

No offense but you are not American, who is us?

The world. More immediately, the west. Him and his daft son already meddling in our countries affairs.

That sounds quite interesting! What do you do that relates to or supports anarchy? (Except not voting obviously)

Counter-economic shit (Agorist).

Helped launch/run the first darknets (pre-silkroad), currently in crypto pushing the p2p monetary movement.

Got any fun reads on this p2p monetary movement? I'm quite interested.

This. So many people are trashing Kamala's campaign while completely ignoring the dumpster fire campaign Trump ran. Probably because Trump being a dumpster fire is just commonly accepted by now. The guy talked about immigrants eating people's pets and admitting that he only had concepts of plans. It was comical.

But everyone has to focus on Kamala's campaign because Democrats have ALWAYS been held to a higher standard.

She had to be flawless and he got to be lawless.

Shameful.

The Trump campaign is only a dumpster fire if you're a blind centrist who refuses to recognize the strength of the enemy.

The Trump campaign was exactly what his voters wanted. It was hours and hours of their god king and his cronies yapping their mouths about any racist thought that popped into their head. He brought up all the problems that his supporters are facing, and he promised change. It didn't matter that his ideas for change are stupid, or lies, because his opponent was outright denying there were problems at all.

You can hate Trump as much as you want, but his campaign was clearly, grossly more effective than Harris. Whereas Democrats were arguing over all the blunders Harris/Walz was making, the Republicans were lockstep behind their golden god who promised to make all their wildest dreams come true. That's how you win elections in the U.S., and it's why everyone with a brain knew the election would be contested in the best case scenario.
