    I think you took my post in a spirit other than which it was intended, and then just sprinted away with it.

    We, in the terms of my post, is Americans. We voted for Donald Trump, whether it was casting a ballot for him directly, voting 3rd party, or just failing to show up. 75 million people voted for Harris, but that wasn’t enough. 77.3 million voted for Trump, and around 90 million people who could have voted simply did not vote at all. So basically, of the eligible voting population, only around 31% of us voted for Harris. 69% of us either couldn’t be fucked to vote at all, or voted for that fat orange piece of shit.

    So… we deserve what we voted for.

    Note that in the above, the “we” includes you, but does not blame you. It sounds like you did what you could to prevent it, but it simply wasn’t enough. Not enough people cared. Now we all have to suffer.
