Around 30-something% of people voted for Harris. The rest voted for pedohitler or didn’t vote. If you didn’t vote, you helped pedohitler be where it is.
Nah. Fuck the US government we don’t have control of it. US isn’t a real democracy if it ever was.
I mean I agree people should vote and do more to stop fascism but failing to do so doesn’t make you responsible for other people’s actions. Frankly if all you’re doing is voting for Harris in this current disaster then you are barely better than a non-voter anyway.

Yes, it does. If your choices are Hitler and someone you disagree with but who’s not Hitler and you don’t vote, you’re saying that both Hitler and the other person are OK for you. So yeah, you are accepting that getting Hitler as president is fine.
Or maybe you fell for disinformation or maybe you just weren’t paying attention or maybe you thought your vote was more impactful boosting a third Party candidate because your state wasn’t going to be close anyway or maybe you couldn’t get off work that day and they closed the polling station near your house so it would have taken 2 hours by bus and you’d have gotten fired.
Lots of reasons people didn’t do the optimal thing around voting. Some of those are more excusable than others but none make you directly responsible for the things Trump and his followers are doing. They are responsible for their own actions. We are responsible for our own. That’s all.
And again, I personally don’t think we will get out of this solely by voting. People need to stop limiting political action solely to making a largely inconsequential mark on a piece of paper.
