The bed is made, all we have left to do now is lie in it.
Moving forward, the best thing that can happen from this is to ensure that those that caused it see the damage they helped create so that if we ever have the opportunity again, they’ll have learned from it.
And I’ll be on this soapbox until I feel like I’ve said my fucking peace.
Block me.
Have you learned we can change our voting system so people can vote how they want yet? Do you need some informative videos to explain our current First-past-the-post voting system and the alternatives that let people vote how they want?
So what exactly are you doing to clean up the Democrat Party of a leadership who managed to lose against none other than Donald Trump, TWICE?
Or are you just another tribalist muppet that thinks "the chief is always right and needs not concede anything to anybody and it's everybody else who has to just do what the chief wants" hence rages against those who are not of your tribe and didn't follow the wishes of your "chiefs" rather than against your "chiefs" for not even trying to appeal to those other people?
Because it would've been way easier for the handful of people in the Democrat Party leadership to, rather than totally refusing to care as they did, listen to and start addressing the concerns of the millions who were hesitant in voting Democrat, than for those millions of voters to magically change their minds when the party which should have been trying to appeal to them couldn't give a rat's arse about their worries.
Singlehandedly giving .world it's reddit archetype.
Yawn…

"We should punish those who objected to a broken system" sounds pretty fascist to me.
They punished themselves just fine.
praise the lord, but really... it's time to think about what the people have to do to reign this nightmare in.
