“Sure we’re all fucked, but at least by not voting I defended the white man’s natural right to rule! We were never gonna vote for an uppity black woman who’s better than the alternative by every conceivable measure, and the Democratic party failed us for not acknowledging that. If we ever get elections again, maybe they’ll have learned their lesson!” - non-voting racist sexist “democrats” in the USA

If you do pop up north, be ready for a battle here too.

Long read, but excellent info. tl;dr - The IDU and the Manning Centre (now called the “Strong and Free Network” run the right up here.

completely alienating [non-voters] now will not help the cause

So we just keep being nice to the braindead traitors who can’t be arsed to get up off the couch and vote so we all don’t live in Nazi World? Because they just haven’t heard the right argument yet, or they just need a wee bit more cajoling, maybe a cookie next time.

idc if it’s existential malaise over the world burning up, or just that they get enough civic participation from their social media Feed. idc about their endless reasons for not showing up (I’ve heard them all up here in Ontario where less than 1/2 the eligible voters turned up, and they’re all nonsense about how it’s someone else’s fault. They feel no shame about it: they’ve been thoroughly convinced that they’re too good/smart to vote).

You keep on with not alienating the braindead lumps. You’ll find them endlessly commentating online, blaming The Woman for Doing It Wrong. Because Kamala didn’t personally bring them tendies they decided their country should be governed AGAIN by a White Supremacist Rapist Incontinent Felon who’s owned by frothy fundies who want to burn the witch.

Every abstaining vote was a vote for Trump. They just wanted to be able to say Wasn’t Me.

People are saying the wound-up violent douchecanoe was reportedly overheard saying, “Lineup?! NO! ME first! FIRST!”

The rest of the ballot is full of things […] like local representatives, education leaders, district judges etc.

Maybe OT, but I’ve been watching a lot of voting advice on twitter, reddit, etc this year, and whenever someone mentions how important it is to get educated about your local options on the ballot, they get a flood of comments accusing them of encouraging people to abstain from voting or to vote 3rd party. It appears to be one limb of an aggressive anti-vote apathy or disinfo campaign.

jfc… racist humour is always so stupid and lazy.

Hinchcliffe also referred to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean” and made a remark about Black people who “carved watermelons” instead of pumpkins for Halloween.

A politician having trash like this warm the crowd for them should be shocking.
