    Yep, my wife texted me this today. Kinda sorta hate the reality of raising a kid in whatever this future holds while also terrified for what can happen for reproductive rights for women.

    The things is that importer exporter is right: they’d say this either way. We can’t be wedded to the democrats

    I’m going to have to tune out honestly. The Trump years wrecked my mental health and I couldn’t change a damn thing. The last time he won Hillary won the popular vote so it felt like we were cheated out of that, but he straight up won this time. Things suck- I have to focus on becoming the best version of myself and do well for my friends, family and community

    I think more realistically this is the political order that emerges out of, like, the Jimmy Carter administration on the far end or the Clinton administration on the recent end. Whenever Dems firmly broke from the New Deal and firmly entrenched itself in neoliberalism.

    Or my galaxy brained shit: it is what you get when you are a country built on genocide and slavery and having never really dealt with those things.

    To those wondering why some Dems are less shook this time around

    The s and p rose 2.5% today. Largest single day gain in a while.

    Howdy y'all! Supporter

    This feeling of complete political, cultural, and ideological defeat is so pronounced that honestly I would be shocked if we get the type of protests we got on 2016-2020 much at all. I don't even see "antifa" black bloc people showing out.

    I feel bummed that Trump won but even more that this is what the two party system has led to, i've never been so against the democratic party as I am now. There is definitely a feeling of hopelessness. My algorithm is filled with politics and it is hard to look away.

    This really should be a wake up call for rank and file democrats that the party is wholly uninterested in delivering any material gains for working people, even if it costs the country. Probably won’t be though. Join DSA I guess

    Not only is there still a genocide going on—a bunch of people are about to realize it for the first time and decide they’ve opposed it for a year
