We voted for a better future for the working class.

They aren’t wrong about why they voted. They are wrong about the results of Trump’s policies which is different.

I believe they believed Trump’s claims.

Doesn’t change my ability to laugh at their thinking. I had these “conversations” with friends and family repeatedly about what they were actually voting for and it made no difference. There is such a thing as the last laugh and however dark it is, as the world stage gets darker and darker, like a Greek tragedy, I will laugh as I watch it play out, sad as it is

You laugh but that's what they voted for. Empiric evidence suggests things weren't too hot for them these last 4 years so I don't know why would you laugh at them in any case

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Because voting determines who will be president in the future. It's not a "Did you like the last 4 years" exit poll. Given the choice between Trump and Kamala, one was clearly the worse choice comparatively if you wanted prices to go down over the next 4 years.

Sure, agreed. But they were convinced that voting away all their rights to the oligarchy was the way forward. The corporations won, Russia won. Disinformation convinced the majority of America to sign itself up to be raped and pillaged, and I will certainly laugh at those who think otherwise and the “magical egg price droppening” “magical house cheapening” are coming by stripping corporations of any and all restrictions
