You really can't be both at the same time.

After this election I've had to cut a bunch of people out of my life, even relatives. A lot of them saying such wonderful things as "trump's just saying things, he doesn't actually mean anything he's saying." And then they'd get defensive when I'd ask them why they votes for him then if he doesn't mean anything he says.

It's really hard to cut people out of your life but afterwards it's amazing realizing that you don't need to tip toe around things that may be vaguely political (or explicitly) anymore to not start an argument.

That already happened to like 90% of us thanks to the same cultists.

Your rectum, my steel toe. Your eye socket, my bat... My choices for their bodies are endless!

I remember that too. I also remember reading a headline about a Brazilian far-right group travelling to the US to join a KKK meeting, then being upset that the KKK weren't particularly welcoming towards them.

The stupidity is absolutely incredible.

The really gross part is this is firmly not just Americans being stupid this time, and has somehow become The Thing To Say Online for the whole damn planet full of incel types.

Who did you think we were? This is who we've always been. They're just getting comfortable taking the mask off again. Trust me, my grandmother and other family were put through the racist indian boarding schools. Common throughout the US and Canada. You know, the ones they keep finding mass graves on. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Just more subtle, less in your face.

Most people thought are too distracted with bread and circuses to care however.

The lizard brains always existed. Inbred, maladjusted, loud angry hateful fucks. We used to be able to suppress them. We ceded the helm of this nation to a bunch of corporations and their puppets in congress. We've been trying like hell to fight this multi front battle and are just taking Ls across the board.

We are burning books. Banning knowledge.

We are entering an environment where many do not have the luxury of having an opinion.

Speaking for all of those who were still trying: We're sorry. We're still here. We still care. But we're fighting a losing battle.

Speaking for myself... I'm fucking tired man. I'm not the only one. People I've spoken to all are effectively the same: resigned to what comes next. There isn't enough unity in this mess to right the ship. That unity will come with desperation... and we're not there yet. 4-6 years. Maybe then. It's got to get a lot worse before we unify over the collective mess we're all stuck in.

I think some of this is being amplified by America’s enemies to drive division.

I never understood since women could vote that there isn't a woman's political party or movement.

They don't give any education. That's it. That's the problem. Parents don't talk with kids and/or assume that kid will raise itself if it gets enough freedom, exact opposite happens in 90% of cases. You will understand the problem even more when you remember how many kids are bullied in school and growing frustration is a consequence.

And while you'd be right to do so- make no mistake that there are posts on every social media platform with the same exact goal in mind. This one is no different.

We are entering into an era informational noise. The signal is still there but it is fucking faint in the storm of misinformation and ai/seo bullshit it is being transmitted into.

We have reached a great filter for society. If you are a woman and care about your rights you just need to know how a man voted to determine their value. You gotta dump if they voted for Trump.

"your face, my fist"

Can you give a tl:dr?
