Less than half of us voted. As a member of Gen Z who DID vote for Khamala its because the only good thing she does is not be Trump.
WHICH IS WHY YOU VOTE FOR SOMEONE.
God I hate that Americans have decided that you vote for the person you like rather than vote to stop the worst person.
You’re never going to get a pony, so do what you can or they’ll make you be a pony. And not in a happy way. In a “work in the mines all your life” way.

Turns out game theory [as described in this election] doesn’t describe how people (on aggregate) actually behave. It does describe how some people think people should behave (I may sometimes agree), but not how they actually do.
If I know you rationally follow game theory [as described], I’m going to offer you far less than anyone else because I know game theorists [as…] take any win, no matter how small. Ultimatum game? I offer everyone a 50-50 split, except game theorists, to whom I offer a penny. They’ll take it too.
Dems didn’t appeal to how people actually act, and so you all lost. Their supporters refused to acknowledge the reality of how groups behave, and so you all lost.
I don’t know what to tell you, I’m not Burt Reynolds. You just accuse people of things whether they’re true or not. I’m not sure why you think it’s okay to lie.
I didn’t accuse you of being a democrat, you just inferred that I did and started calling me a liar. Would you like to get back on topic?

Your words. And no, I do not usually accuse people of things for which I do not have evidence. You do not speak for me on that any more than you speak for me on what political party I I’m a member of. You do not get to dictate these things.
Can we calm down a little, you don’t need to be so combative. Might I suggest:
Those are my words, and that was your inference. “you” was referring to citizens of the United states. I could have made that more clear. I am sorry for that, I can be a not so great communicator at times.
You can apologise for calling me a liar now. With that little distraction dealt with we can discuss the topic civilly? Maybe, we can assume each other a rational human beings that want similar things and aren’t out to accuse each other of random shit? Please? Lemmy really has some seeing the worst in everyone always, that’s not h
They said to the person who voted blue. Im not telling you don’t vote, I’m telling you why most people my age who didn’t want Trump didn’t vote. I don’t know what more you want from me.
You’re never going to get a pony, so do what you can or they’ll make you be a pony. And not in a happy way. In a “work in the mines all your life” way.
Ending the horrors of late stage capitalism isn’t asking for a pony its the bare minimum to ensure the continued survival of our species.
I’m telling you why most people my age who didn’t want Trump didn’t vote.
And I explained why they were wrong. I’m not sure why you think this is all about you.

I have not heard a single person anywhere claim that’s why they didn’t vote. Not one. The biggest claim I heard is that neither candidate appealed or excited them. I heard that many times. Nothing about capitalism, just about the laziness of thinking you have to like a candidate to do the bare minimum of voting.

Oh well, too late now.

Are you claiming I am a Democrat? Can you present some evidence to that effect?
Are you claiming I am a millionaire? Can you present some evidence to that effect? If you’re gonna tilt at windmills this conversation is pointless.
So no, you can’t. You just accuse people of things whether they’re true or not. I’m not sure why you think it’s okay to lie.

So you don’t want Trump, so your decision is to not vote?
Is your generation brain dead or something?
