Agreed

Not counting on it.

Trouble is, absent a rerun of the Civil War with Mecha-Sherman and a no-bullshit Reconstruction we'd have to slough off a geographically-large chunk of the country where a lot of decent people live. It'd set up a Partition situation or worse.

We are living among the worst Americans in history. Their racism and willingness to preserve it prompted them to elect a shameless criminal who has infested the entire government with lackeys trying to destroy our democracy. This is a satanic nation of evil, greed, and moral corruption.

Totally agree. I hope we prove ourselves to be better than this.

It was white supremacy vs democracy and white supremacy won, mainly because 90M Americans couldn't be bothered to vote. Shameful. But I think those who sat it out were influenced by Elon Musk's social media manipulation and MSM's hostility regarding Biden's belief that the rich should pay taxes.

Thank you

I have no reason to believe it will get better. We continue to vote for the worst among us and we demand nothing from them.

Improve is relative at this point. The era of American hegemony on the global stage is over. If something better and more egalitarian replaces it, maybe that’s not a bad thing, but I’m not super hopeful for that in the near term.

THEY CHEATED THEY BRAGGED ABOUT IT OPENLY IT'S A KNOWN FACT It's impossible that you don't know this 🤦‍♂️

If we are being honest, America has been struggling with its moral clarity since its founding. That’s who we are. We do some good things. We do some bad things. And the cycle goes on. I like to think we collectively learn from the things we’ve done and endeavor to continuously improve.

We need to protect the right to vote, prevent voting interference and electronic manipulation aka cheating, and get rid of the electoral college. Each vote should count.

We got here thanks to Russian, Israeli, and Chinese psyops. MAGA is a foreign psyop!

We're living in a mental asylum. Electroshock therapy might be our only way out of this nightmare.

I’m generally an optimist, but this is over. It would take decades to fix what has been broken. And, that means, during those decades, ‘murica won’t elect another trump. Something it is so spectacularly capable of doing.

The Musk helped make that happen.

The crime of our lifetime is that some people were so focused on Gaza that they completely lost sight of the irreparable damage Trump promised he would cause.

I didn't "allow Trump to take over" - DEMOCRATS DID by refusing to say no to genocide.

My hope is that this is one of the horrible events that ends up leading to a big progressive push. But WE have to help the push. It doesn't happen by itself.

The rest of us hope you do too. But as my Prime Minister made clear the rest of the world cannot and will not just stand by wait and pray for your electorate to regain their sanity.

It’s very sad, tragic, and the reason I fled the country in 2019. The United States had only a 250 year run before the Far Right killed it. Damn the Republicans. Damn MAGA. Goddamn TRUMP. I curse his name and wish I had never heard it.

Correction the evil people who jumped in that shitty diaper and the lazy losers that didn’t vote failed! We are part of the people with a brain and common sense and knew he was not worth the air he breaths clearly his family hate him if they didn’t they wouldn’t play this hell destined game!

Right on But doesn’t Garland, Biden and Harris own it? This was the first test for a democracy and they failed Yes WW1 and 2 but 1/6 was an attack of the home land I could be crazy

REPUBLICANS failed spectacularly. The people who have been self-righteously moralizing to us for decades, it turns out, are perfectly okay with racism, sexism, brutality, authoritarianism, even sexual abuse of children, even brutal kidnapping of children, even sucking up to Vladimir Putin.

He won a plurality, not a majority He got 4M votes fewer than Biden in 2020 A South African billionaire bought votes illegally & gave $250M Musk also made in-kind contribution of hundreds of millions by wrecking Twitter. He ran on lies. Kamala only had 107 days He has never beat a man in a general.

If this past year didn’t convince people…

or best yet - split the country! There is no future with republicans. We are NOT UNITED; never will be; never should be. Policy is NOT what separates us; morality vs republican immorality is what separates us & ALWAYS will.

They never had a moral compass.

I appreciate that but it’s the only way I can stay sane. Breaking t future into units I can manage to think about.

Et Tu

You won't, look at dems.

It was a test of how far the decades orchastrated mass manipulation could go. Learn the rules of parpagnada to understand what is happening in the fake news. Basically: spread lies 24/7 to reduce critical thinking and then stoke fear/hate 24/7 to force people make choices with their emotions.

He should have never been allowed on the ballot. Republicans and SCOTUS pushed fo it. They are all in the Epstine files

The US used to be one of the most moral countries in the world. I am sure that underlying morality must be there somewhere. Speak out, unite & fight. Enough opposition & he will crumble, because he is a coward - no soldiering for him. He cannot stand being unpopular. Use that & speak out!

While I agree with most of this, and a much of what you 'tweet' here, I do not agree that this mess is any Biden voter's fault. This is not the America I wish to live in. The one thing I will admit to is that I thought people were smarter, kinder. Oh boy, was I ever disappointed!

And that reality reflects the undeniable truth that the failure lies entirely with white conservative Christians. They are 💯 MAGA. 💯 of them knowingly voted for Trump and continue to support and justify what he is doing.

God Damn the Independents who wouldn’t vote for a smart, tough, but nice black woman! And God Damn those people who stayed home and didn’t vote!

Then hopefully we can change these systems and create a better country that is more aligned with who Americans think we are.

ok big guy you got ideas? Tell us what we need to do. I’m friggen tired of going to meetings to demonstrate.

These are the consequences of allowing the Confederates to all live and continue to spread their disease. There would be no MAGA if the Confederates had been wiped out completely and their propaganda made illegal, the way Germany treated the Nazis after the fact.

Can’t rule out with 100% certainty the election wasn’t stolen. F.Elon teased like he had something to do with the outcome of the election

The real problem is anyone who would vote for Trump

We need another revolution

In 10 or so years there will be a new republican mass murderer in charge while every shithead liberal and their voters say that really Trump wasn't all that bad in comparison, just like they do nowadays with Reagan and Bush.

I refuse to acknowledge this dichotomy and if I do, Trump is both disease and symptom.

Definitely 💯

only if these corrupt gop and any capitulating Dems can be removed from office. and the 6 unSupreme Court members impeached. we need a serious overhaul of the constitution to prevent this ever happening again

🙏

Wish the stories weren't true. Hoping they are so they can expose the monsters. Makes me want there to be a deity to give these folks peace from life long anguish. Give them the opportunity to tell the world their stories. Protect them from the morons of the world.

Im afraid you’re observations are right. But I have good news: you guys managed to piss off also the other half of the world in just a year. Outstanding achievement!

Here’s why you will NEVER recover from this self inflicted apocalypse. 1. Vast majority of Americans either in denial of what’s happening,or support it 2. You refuse to accept what’s needed. A revolution 3. It’s too late. The world will NEVER trust you again 4. Inaction to fix this, world quits you

And laughed uproariously about going to prison if Kamala won. www.yahoo.com/news/elon-mu...

And Dems sat by and didn’t question anything. 🤬

Evergreen post.

You will, but its going to cost way more than anyone thinks. The old world is broken and it may be a long time before stability returns.

It's the DNA Karma is real.

Maybe we ALL LEARNED that 'character counts' in electing political leaders more than we have appreciated in the past.

Don’t bet on it.

The choice was genocide or democracy. The US - by bipartisan consensus - chose genocide. The US showed itself to be immoral. Brutalizing brown people overseas was a pretty good sign that eventually the US would brutalize brown people here. Now some find ethnic cleansing at home a little too messy.

Are we surprised that the Honey Boo Boo Jerry Springer Kardashian nation failed?

Corruption rampant too much selfishness

It is going to take a long time to recover after this 💩show. I worry for even my grandchildren’s generation.

Thank you Gunnar!

If I were young, I would highly consider moving out of this country. Especially if I had children.

We are pariah now. Everywhere except Russia maybe.and what does that say.

We nominated a Black woman. In 2024 America. Did any of us *truly* expect a different result? This country is the United States of Low Gas and Egg Prices. Winning over this doltish, racist, woman-hating electorate is hard enough as it is.

Very well put

Sitting out = pulling the lever for him.

not "we". THEY. "WE" spotted the evil and acted accordingly.

"Wir haben es nicht gewusst"

Well, SOME of us failed, the other 70% have been pushing shit uphill...maybe we will get to top by November....

Is there something people outside the US can do to support Minneapolis tomorrow?

Yup. But please, continue calling yourselves the “gReAtEsT nAtIoN iN tHe WoRlD” while spouting that pathetic anthem of yours. We see America for what it truly is. We will never forget.

Hard to believe we're not a lost cause 😭

nobody has ever voted out fascism. probably a good idea to start considering a Plan B now.

I remember in 2021, #LizCheney saying, How America responds to the #Jan6thInsurrection, will be the Moral Test of our Time! She was absolutely Right! The Betrayal by Trump and the Republican Party, is worse than I could have ever imagined!!!

@imeachtrumpnow

FWIW none of this happened in a vacuum. A lot of people spent a lot of money to make you weak.

Yes... I'm worried about the moral destruction these bastards are leaving behind for the next generation.

Ain't that the truth...

You got that right. The *we* that failed is the group that has voted Republican continuously every election cycle since the Civil Rights Act passed.

You can improve, but you won't improve. 2024 proved that without a doubt and chatter on bluesky supports my thesis.

I’m sorry but as true as that is, it is a also - at least also - that this whole f-u-c-k-I-n-g fiasco is a 1% corporate takeover and we are the launchpad for minimally a concerted attempt towards international economic domination. Corporate. 1%. We the people are collateral and insignificant.

i don’t know when the realization comes… can we stage an intervention?

Back in the 80s I owned a t-shirt that said ‘Don’t Blame Me - I voted Labour’. Didn’t really help. The Tory government lasted longer than that t-shirt.

Yeah the cop who guaranteed republicans a FUCKING CABINET POSITION would have saved the day

We didn't. REPUBLICANS did. We have to make it matter to them. This will not be easy. We have to name, shame, shun and isolate REPUBLICANS who voted away the America we got to grow up in. They have to feel the pain they have caused others. They are lost in selfishness or stupidity.

Some rich assholes decided that Bidens support of israel wasn't good enough ..so here we are

I’m 79. We need to get to solving this fast.

Rounding up children shouldn't shock anyone but it does. Only person happy is Stephen Miller.

Americans have completely misplaced their moral compass as we did with Brexit and electing Boris Johnson

I wouldn't say "we." I voted for Kamala.

2016 was that test. We failed the re-test.

Yes, agreed. We failed. We delude ourselves that our system can self-correct. Capitalism wound up here because it had nowhere else to go.

one thing we need to do to help fix all this is to drone strike every bot farm.

Let's hope you get the chance to improve, for all our sakes.

Office of Legal Counsel dismissed J6 case against trump stating indicting an elected candidate would be unprecedented. What’s more unprecedented is having a convicted felon as president! Our officials failed us & gave us trump.

Yeah, well… how much do you wanna bet Dump & his crew of fascist criminals CHEATED? Take a look at Texas alone. AG Paxton should be in prison but avoided justice after being convicted of fraud. #TrumpCheats #FightFascism #DefendDemocracy

I don't believe the current administration is representative of the moral character of your nation, at least not the American people. It is a moral failng on the part of the wealthy men who backed Trump and then kissed the ring. Still wonder what happened to the last election. It didn't add up.
