2024 U.S. Presidential and State election thread - I'm gonna... I'm gonna... VOOT!!! I'm VOOOOOTING!!!

[0713]

I was just a kid when Reagan won in 1980, but my mom was hard as nails and loved watching politics. I remember my dad commenting, “huh, I wonder what that means” and she just smiled and said “some people are going to get in line”.

The next day the Iranians surrendered a bunch of American hostages, ending the crisis before even taking office. All of which is just to say:

I expect some people are about to get in fucking line.

>Being a weak faggot makes people not respect you.
Wow, imagine that!

MAGA!

A colleague was talking to me about it (I didn't elicit this, they chose to just talk about it assuming my political views side with them and I let them talk), someone I respect and is technically smart in his discipline and professional, let it slip that he 100% thinks people didn't vote for Kamala because she was a woman. He was so certain and legitimately angry about it. Just a completely objectively wrong, stupid, shallow take. The left is filled with so many pretentious, sanctimonious, delusional fools, with such a surface level, distorted, false take on what our world is.

What are we going to do to deprogram these people?
I had an argument with someone i love very much and had to tell him in pretty damning and angry terms that I am done hearing these deluded, untrue takes, that they fucking affect me, and that they're simply not true. He claims that he doesn't listen to the media and listens to a bunch of other sources, but where does he get the information from that just happens to be copy pasted from the media talking heads? How do you get through to people? I don't want to be just as bad as the liberals but I honestly feel emotionally harmed from all the fucking
gaslighting over the past 8+ years. I cannot take anymore hearing the deluded view on reality. Maybe I'm taking this shit too seriously but it's been so rough.

 

[umseriously]

The Democrats losing 2028 in a Gavin newsom vs Tulsi matchup would be hilarious and further send them into complete cognitive dissonance.

Looks happy and speaking more coherent it's like a curse was lifted.

Trump cured Biden like Gandalf in The Two Towers:

Biden on January 20th

My pal did this tonight, without even knowing the comparison with Theoden was already floating around here on the Farms.

Is he on drugs? The math isn't even there. Decision Desk has the GOP at 216, and they're leading in most of the races left. Who feeds these retards information?

Late night mystery ballots no doubt. But they'd have to flip all the California red ones.

The only way to properly deprogram everyone from this kind of retardation would need to come from the democrats.

These VBNMW bots will only listen to the leftiest of medias, and only get their information from the leftiest of presidential candidates.
Until there is a democrat candidate that is actually willing to:
- Make a real policy
- Discuss actual points in their opponent's policy
- Actively discredits retards that twist their own words to make it sound worse
It is not gonna change.

The only thing you, as an individual, could do, is take each of the points they shit out, with their sources, and actively work together to find out whether these points are true or false.
You will probably discover that you're wrong on a few points, and that's a good thing, but they will also have to concede on some, if they categorically refuse to accept any evidence you serve them, they're lost, and you should give up ever discussing politics with them, as they're not actually talking politics, they're talking propaganda.

the G2C is a solid handgun. Reliable, affordable, great reviews on YouTube and in all the gun mags
only complaint is accuracy, it's not perfect but it'll do 3-4" groups @ 25 yards

don't let some literal faggot's endorsement put you off, Taurus is a reputable company

I think one of the worse sins they ever did is break family's apart over their bullshit. Endless screeds about how you should "cut them out of your life" and "make sure you spaz out at your racist uncle over the thanksgiving table". They caused hurt in a lot of family's over ideological issues, that could have been settled by live and let live. I got old boomer "pull your self up by your bootstraps" talk in my family. I can never afford my own home(thanks Obama). But i would never even think of having a real hate argument over something like that. I love my family too much.

Makes me really wonder if they were really drugging him all along.

Also, they are also commentating on the whole "Republicans Are Weird" meme, saying that it was one of the few effective things that they could use to undermine Trump and the GOP.

Surprised that (as far as I know) we don't have a thread on KYM.

It's sad, KYM was a very helpful ally during GamerGate, they did a lot of documentation in terms of taking screenshots and such. I wonder what happened that turned them to the other side like this.

Yeah, that place really went down the drain. Like a week ago I got banned from there even though I've had an account for a couple of years. It's like every comment section was them just ranting about Trump even if had nothing to do with the meme. I had posted a pro-Trump comment and like two days later I got an email telling me I was banned. It said the reason was "Troll".
I really could care less so I didn't even bother to make another account but still - it's crazy how that place became so pro-establishment.

You know there might just be something wrong with the system if we need to underpay a bunch of illegals from central america just so the current food distribution system can function.

Just saying.

That said, food prices will undoubtedly increase under him if he's gonna start sweeping them away, this is the same exact issue that BTFO'd democrats, I don't think this is gonna bode well for republicans come 2028 desu.

The vast majority of underpaid Guatemalan watermellon pickers are here legally on H-2A visas. Trump is not trying to deport people who are here documented and legally.

 

[Kulee Baba]

The election reaction has proven the dems are incapable of change. Between the out of touch elites and the dogmatic progs, there's simply no room for the truth.

It wouldn't matter if 95% of people supported deporting illegals - they think it's racist so it's simply not something they could ever support. They can't move right on any issue without dissolving.

I don't think everything's going to be rosy for Trump though. Just like they've been saying "Bidenomics works, look at the numbers", they'll do the opposite for Trump since cutting spending will make GDP slow even if peoples lives are getting better.

Couldn't agree more, only Democratic official I've seen so far who appears genuine as a moderate is this Torres guy.

He's a gay black man so what a great diversity hire. I like him just because he pushed to make businesses accept Cash arguing it's unfair to minorities who don't have bank accounts. I don't care what the justification is anyone who fights against the advancing elimination of physical currency is cool by my book.

Anyway the Democratic Party has for decades been the party of the cities. Hard to think any populated hub of America not being a Democratic stronghold that can turn a state blue on its own. 2024 turned that from a strength to a crippling weakness. Because cities are filled with Dems it makes Democratic voters and ultimately their representatives out of touch with reality. Democrats have a tunnel vision thinking the messages they send resonate with everyone. They really believed that the masses would be enamored by hearing James Taylor perform at rallies. I'm shocked to know that James Taylor is still alive along with anyone who likes that wuss music.

I went to Hersheypark for the first time in like 10 years earlier this year, and the place went entirely cashless in that time period which was obnoxious. Couldn't even use cash on the vending machines. At least the coasters were still fun.

Honestly? They have to deprogram themselves. Don't cut them out of your life if you can help it, but do set boundaries, and don't affirm their delusions. Alternatively, just try to grey rock (https://health.clevelandclinic.org/grey-rock-method) whenever politics comes up. Arguing, debating, convincing, etc are seldom effective considering the emotional cost they generally come at for both of you. Pretty much the same playbook as supporting a friend in an literal cult.

Try to imagine: What would it take to convince you to be a progressive Harris supporter? Completely tearing down your worldview and sense of reality and building it up again? That's pretty much what they have to go through to re-engage with reality, and most of it will have to come from within.
