Oh no! Did you forget you were poor when you voted to punish the poor?
“He’s hurting the wrong people!”
Four years ago is a long time to remember for people with a room temperature IQ.
People with room temp IQ are conservatives’ target audience anyway. Easier to manipulate, easier to pull off any stupid story they will believe, exists in large numbers, do not use analytical thinking, eager to have cultish figure to follow, enjoy blaming others, disciplined in voting.
All conservative, populist and rightwing parties are aiming at dumb people specifically. They know what they are doing and why.
In Celsius.
I remember that article and that statement.
It feels like they didn’t worry when it counted.
Here i was, worried about them a couple months ago. Then they came out in force and overwhelmingly invited the leopards into their home. Now they want me to care again. Sorry, no. I tried then, im fresh out of fucks to give.
Yeah, I would love to indulge in the schadenfreude watching these pissants whine while their “savior” rips away all of their social safety nets but unfortunately there’s a lot of good people who didn’t vote for that asshole who are going to get fucked as well.
Well, we just won’t laugh at those ones.
A modern classic.
Blackpill propaganda
Once again I was about to make a Leopards eating my face joke just before I realized this WAS the Leopards ate my face lemm.
The election taught me that:
25% of the country is sorta paying attention.
25% of the country fits into two categories, Evil (100% selfish goes here, still counts as evil), or stupid as a bag of hammers.
50% of the country can’t be bothered to participate either way. Gonna lump them in with the hammers.
Not great.
More people vote like they’re buying their brand preference for soap than for any specific reason.
I put more effort into buying soap than some people do in voting. Then again, I prefer it not eat my face
Yup. Lost a lot of faith in all of us with this election. Stakes were high and people still either didn’t care, or voted simply out of pure greed, selfishness, or hatred.
That’s disrespectful to hammers.
Hammers are useful.
Sure hammers are useful, and I own like 10 different types of hammers. I’m an apprentice blacksmith. That said, if I gathered up all my various hammers, and stick them in a sack, I’m not expecting anything intelligent out of them, or anything intelligible, except the occasional “clink,” or “thud.”
Hell, I shit talk my hammers all the time. I’ve yet to hear one complain.
At least the hammers are not actively contributing to the downfall of the US. Therefore I still classify then as smarter than 1/3 of the population. I have never had a hammer spread misinformation or turn on FOX news.
So are the people. There’s a reason for the term “useful idiot”.
That’s simplifying it a bit much. I think it’s more like:
Out of the voting population:
10% are shitty people (evil, greedy, etc). These are usually the loudest bunch
15% are single issue voters that didn’t understand elections aren’t JUST about one issue
45% are just stupid and go with what they are told without any critical thinking on their part (bag of hammers group)
5% are misogynistic and would never vote for a woman
15% are somewhat paying attention
And 10% actually understand what’s important
Outside of the voting population, 36% of eligible voters are lazy or apathetic and didn’t vote (Again, bag of hammers).
That’s going out of your way to complicate things. Shitty people and single issue voters are a distinction without a difference. You cannot be a single issue voter and not be a shitty person. Enabling and endorsing the most horrific grifters. All because they’ll happily lie to you. And tell you they will deliver it your little Pet Project. Especially repeatedly as they do. Makes you a bad person.
Life is complicated, and so are people. Painting with such a broad brush is akin to being a single issue voter.
Not in the slightest
These people are victims too. Our schools were sabotaged for private profit. News was sabotaged for private profit, and these people have been swimming in “distrust your own senses” corpo propaganda for half a century.
The capitalists that bought our government made these people. I don’t like them, they’re not redeemable, but they are victims, the capitalists want you to hate these people and keep buying their products.
Be angry at the right people. The owners. Pity their pathetic, for all intents and purposes lobotomized rubes. They’ll still call capitalist made climate change a hoax when the CAT 5 has turned their home into confetti.
You can’t expect people of or below average intelligence to just magically think and reason critically in a nation where such skills are taught at college level.

Just no… Paraphrasing Sisan Sontag
10% of people are evil, 10% decent and the other 80% will just follow along with whomever they think gives them what they want.
Sure, but at some point you have to face the consequences of your own stupidity or you’ll never learn.
Darwin, Interrupted
They will get the consequences, whether people here mock them for it or not. Wasting time blaming these people doesn’t affect the consequences they will face. Instead, it takes time away from us blaming the actual culprits.
We don’t expect that we expect them to not receive benefits and suffer. Gotta take the safety rails off and let the real dumb ones you know let nature nurture them.
Poor and stupid voters are the leopards preferred lunch.
It is amazing that people are actually that dumb to believe that Trump would somehow exclude some people who won’t be able to donate five-digit or better donations from harmful decisions.
Yeah I’m fresh out of compassion for these assholes. May the next four years be a living hell for them, or even full on pull whatever lifeline they’re clinging to out from under them. If it culls a bit of evil from the voting population, that’s best case scenario at this point. They voted to light the country on fire, let them burn.
I feel a helpless fury that has nowhere to go and nothing to be but pointless; I cast my vote for Kamala, hoping others would see that she would be the one to reduce harm, but not move us forward yet. It would take time to build support for a candidate who would in fact usher in positive change, Kamala is just a bandage on a leaking pipe. These upcoming four years are going to be hell, as a chronically ill person…I don’t know if I will even be able to endure this orange asshole’s reign of incoherent madness. He’s got a proper rogue’s gallery of filth leading the charge to destroy this nation. I’d prefer if they were a powder keg that ended up destroying themselves in the process. If I somehow make it through and find there’s another election…I’ll hopefully be able to vote to reduce harm, and it actually works. 😮💨
The majority of voters voted to kill you. Fury is exactly what you should be feeling.
True, my fury is justified, but I want to put this fury to work; Somehow, get pieces in motion to stage a moment that will cause change. There are people who are trying to prepare and weather this storm we’ve got going. It’s a matter of being strong enough to assist and resist becoming another casualty in a long line of many who were destroyed by the callous choices of those obscenely rich.
It’s exhaustion here. Pure exhaustion.
This is pure Herman Cain Award material, just with economics instead of vaccination. The GoFundMe requests will be plentiful, the cries for help on Facebook deafening and the compassion for them evaporated a few months ago.
Gosh I feel so so bad for them.
I’m sending them thoughts and prayers 🙏 - that’ll help, right? (/S for the impaired.)
My state voted Trump 2-to-1. This year I took the money I normally give to the local food bank and gave half to Elevated Access and half to local Pride.
“Wow, I didn’t think the leopards would eat MY face!”
As someone who works specifically to build and maintain low income housing, I was painfully aware of just how precarious of a situation the population decided to put us in.
On a really terrible upside, the housing market might nose dive from various other large city low income groups needing to sell off potential low income housing to fund and maintain currently functional low income housing.
Hahahahahahahahaahahahaha
Oh wait, you’re serious, let me laugh even harder
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH
But really, why can’t they/trump be more like that Jesus fellow they all claim to follow?
That’s generally called Supply Side Jesus.
It is the Chick Tract that just… chefs kiss
Feeling compassion for people in an unfortunate situation should be easy, but in this case, it’s very, very difficult.
Vote for what gets you mad, spend the rest of your life being sad.
