And I'll never forgive the pundits and social media commenters who derailed conversations about how the Dems tone-deaf campaigning (e.g. promising the most lethal military in the world, Liz Cheney, etc.) was going to make some voters stay home and risked losing the election, very much like how the Dems blew elections in 2016 and 2004. Whining about alienating your own voters is like a football team whining about their opponents scoring too many points when they should be firing their head coach.

e; and before it even comes up, I voted straight ticket Dem and have done so my whole life because there is nothing I want more than the total collapse of the Republican party

And they're still trying to justify it, because preventing this shit wasn't exciting enough or something. I don't give the Democrats a pass on fucking the dog this cycle, but the voters knew what was on the table and choose not to vote against it and that's so much worse imo. They let one or two issues condemn entire groups of marginalized people, and still cry BoTh SiDeS.

I definitely blame those the cast their vote for Trump the most, because they literally voted for him. I blame non voters a close second.

That's a false narrative. The people who stayed home weren't the ones "demanding" anything. The ones making demands were almost entirely the ones who understood that other people would stay home. Your attacking people like me who were outraged by the actions of the Biden administration and the incompetency of the Kamala campaign, both because of the horrors they represent, and because we knew the vote would be suppressed. I voted for Kamala, but she let me down.

The people who stay home aren't the left wing activists, they are the apolitical schmucks who don't even consider voting until the week or day of the election.

And he singlehandedly stopped the war in Ukraine on day one like he said

I don't think they were referring to you buddy.

There will be many Trump voters that were misinformed that want to resist, we must welcome the support.

There must be a path to redemption. It's there for anyone who wants to take it.

To get through this and move forward positively, we must look past grievances and work together.

While this is true, that path to redemption has to be taken first. Until then, my grievances stand firm.

It also assumes the outcome of our election was ever going to be fair, as if the captured Supreme Court wouldn't have intervened in a close election to give Trump the presidency anyway. Harris needed a landslide victory to have a chance to avoid the election getting stolen, and by August it was clear she could not get one.

Emotionally I'm not inclined to place another iota of effort into politics. I feel like I've wasted 20 years of my life obsessing over it.

And with that I have zero desire to forgive anyone even slightly responsible for Trump's victory. I don't owe anyone shit, I did not choose to be born.

Has everyone collectively forgotten how Trump literally bragged that his buddy Elawn can hack the voting machines? It was like he was nodding to ‘the hacker named 4chan’ and grinning that he was on the payroll.
