I'm not just mad about this shit because I'm tired of seeing it (tho I am) It is scary to me that people legitimately don't seem to understand enough to know that 20% of the population of Texas voted for Trump. That is it. Out of every 5 people in Texas, 4 did not vote for this.

Even if you're not going to be a human being with compassion in your heart, how is it not embarrassing to be out here saying shit this fucking ignorant?? You sound as low-information as you accuse them of being.

I'm going to try to keep it moving on this topic going forward because I've got too much to do to bitch ONE MORE TIME about shitheads who should just go on my blocklist. But man. Even if you can't fix your heart, fix your fucking head.

last comment: this thread is not about whether people who DID explicitly vote for him deserve this--that is for your own moral framework to grapple with. My point is that we have so little civic literacy at this point, people have delegated their moral framework to the fucking electoral college.

The really frustrating thing is that it’s the same people who are (correctly!) outraged about the electoral college who then go on to make broad “red state/blue state” generalizations without realizing that those very terms are _artifacts_ of that same electoral college!

Electoral college is a huge reason voter turnout is so low in TX. If you’re a democrat, you’re mostly wasting your time: unless a whole bunch more people start voting your way, your vote basically doesn’t count. If you’re Republican, you also didn’t need to. Winner take all electoral votes screws us
