They don’t see what he’s done and what he’s said. The people that put him over the edge this time were targeted for being ill-informed and tempted by magic wand campaign promises like “no tax on tips” or dumb things like gold sneakers. They aren’t watching informed news or doing research about his past performance. They’re simply voting on vibe alone and have been heavily targeted on social media to make them think everything sucks and he’s the only one who can fix everything when in fact he’s the complete opposite of them.

I fear it won’t be centralized just in Washington this time and they could try to take many state houses that simply aren’t prepared as the Capital clearly will be. There was a clip of two men walking away from Jan 6 that haunts me. They were remarking on what an incredible day it was, and one of them says, “but next time we bring the guns”. If 100k armed idiots people show up at the Capital looking for a ‘revolution’, cops aren’t going to be enough. And even worse if they take to local streets looking for anybody who opposes them. I hope the fever doesn’t get that high, but I’ll for sure to be staying far away from any of those crazies for a while.

I made a Mastodon account during that blitz in '22. Yes, content wasn’t there yet, but honestly, it was the interface for me. It’s UI didn’t feel simplistic enough to me as someone just getting started with it.

Lemmy may have faced a similar fate for me if it weren’t for the smooth interface of Sync to be honest. I know many on here are leaps and bounds beyond my tech proficiency, but so many folks are still in the stone ages writing their passwords on post-it notes etc so to think that they’d adopt something like Mastodon over Twitter or Lemmy over Reddit seems like the bigger counterparts will always win just on sign-up flow and instant gratification.

Sounds like this clown lives in that one blip in Nebraska or whatever that can impact shit, you know what to do bois. Electoral vote this mofo out the comments section! /s (chill)

Well, concepts of a plan

I remember being in 3rd grade and learning about the electoral college and thinking, “that’s the stupidest fucking thing I’ve ever heard of”. Still true to this day.

I’ve also been thinking and expecting that they will create their own fraud this time. Evidence is what they were missing last time around. So imagine this time, drop boxes get flooded with phony ballots that they themselves put in for Kamala. Then they can point the finger and say “See! We told you so!” and it’s enough for the state legislations not to certify and call things into question.

Closed my X account a couple days ago. He’s truly gotten out of control and my feed had become riddled with conspiracy theory fear-mongering garbage. Good riddance. I encourage others to leave as well, it’s the only way he’s held accountable unfortunately.

FBI! OPEN UP!

I was watching the freak outs on Twitter last night and being like, if the ‘feds’ were really coming to shut you down, you’d be off the air already or we’d see it go down. He probably got a letter or something saying it’s a possibility and everything else was over exaggerated and in his head.

I live in San Diego and go to Mexico often, and this story has made me so sad to see. I was just in Ensenada last month, and it’s such a beautiful city and we enjoyed our trip exploring great food and taking in music. Unfortunately, stories like this from a couple bad actors will dissuade thousands from experiencing a great place. It’s a damn shame and it’s hard to swallow that this could’ve been me and my friends who were the unlucky ones. I feel for their families so hard in all of this.

To be fair, calling San Francisco’s public transportation ‘excellent’ isn’t something I can agree with after living there for over a decade haha. But it is better than nothing 🤷

Just giving “Shrimpdick McGee” it’s day in court.
