While we're all worried about the future of America, the misogynous racists out there must be dying of stress right now
Makes me feel a bit better about my general political anxiousness.

Never assume that they are doing what you would do. They live in a separate reality where they are consistently superior to, and yet somehow also constantly oppressed, by others.
Good reminder for everyone to vote.
just under 50% of people voted in Ohio in the 2020 election.
Trump won by 8%.
If just 9% of the people who felt like you (what’s the point of voting) had showed up to vote for Biden, that would have flipped the state.
No single raindrop believes it can make any difference. But together, all those insignificant raindrops can change the course of a river in a single day.

This comment is beautiful. Always vote.
Less, beautiful, more wordy:
Go vote, folks.
As a Californian, my vote for president is practically moot, but I still vote because my votes for state and local elections are much more impactful, and I try to do at least enough research that I’m not stabbing in the dark, and if I don’t feel informed enough, I leave that one blank.

Get ready to meet r/the_donald again.
I love how their posts are either boiler-plate conservatism or deranged conspiracies and cultish behavior, with no in between.
Holy shit. That place feels like it's drones mindlessly repeating the same mantra over and over again, word for word and in random order. Theres not one coherent conversation going on.
How many of these people do you think exist? Ballpark is fine if you don’t have an exact count.
I guess a joke is the only possible answer to this, right? Because you have no idea?
Have you even considered the question?
I think that 74 million figure demonstrates that not only have they pondered the question, but they've reached a definitive conclusion on the thought and did some research to get an exact number for you. Any further questions?
As long as there’s stuff not being acknowledged there will always be questions.
You guys haven’t considered the size of the problem. What’s more, you’re afraid to. Because numbers aren’t spinnable. You say a number, you can be wrong, right, high, low, etc. Numbers put you somewhere, bring new information to light.
Numbers are falsifiable. Which is incompatible with the nature of this kind of talk. It’s not about describing reality. It’s about pushing a narrative.
Numbers don’t really matter in fiction. It doesn’t push a narrative forward.
Asking about numbers is a way of saying “Do you consider this a real problem, or is it just a fun fantasy to give your actions justification?”
Do you know what I mean?
