They’re gonna vote based on vibes, so you have to get the vibes right or the average person won’t vote for you.
And you can’t fake vibes by having a bunch of celebrities around.
So why’d they vote for a rapist who is in pictures with goddamn Epstein? That’s the part I don’t understand. Are we seriously saying the average (American) is okay with a rapist being president because they like his vibes?
As far as I can tell, it’s not that people who would have otherwise voted for Kamala instead voted for Donald. It’s that people who would have otherwise voted for Kamala, including many of those who did vote for Biden, just stayed home. “We’ve got policy plans and whatever” yeah that would never make it to implementation through a gridlocked congress and a hostile supreme court.

I honestly think you’re giving them more credit than they deserve. My point is that a _rapist, fascist, cruel, racist, misogynist who has said aloud all the horrible things he will do was running for office and a lot of people just shrugged their shoulders and refused to vote. I can’t imagine that kind of apathy when a fascist is taking over. “Sure Hitler and the Nazi’s are bad, but what am I going to do, vote socialist?”
(Also this because people need to remember he was anti-capitalist as well.)
Maybe. If so, Slipknot was right and people really do = shit. I cannot imagine saying to my women friends and family “okay so you’re losing bodily autonomy, but I’m super exhausted about this whole voting thing.”

They’re fucking weirdos with weird vibes.
I’m much more interested in the folks who didn’t vote.

Apathy or exhaustion?

I voted. Most of the women in my family didn’t. Most of the women in my family are not and never have been registered to vote.
And this is the sound thundering through my soul for the last few days.
