We're a banana republic. And it happened so fast.

You MAGAts and Uncommitteds will never, ever be forgiven.

Agree. I realize that's when I started really feeling, knowing, this isn't my country anymore. Aligning w a dictator led Russia, a USA "president" and Putin deciding between themselves who gets what in Ukraine. ALL elected "leaders" too comfy to stand up for we the people. @bennet.senate.gov

I forgive ignorance, not semi-conscious stupidity.

pjdegenaro.bsky.social•2 days ago

Well this certainly took off. By my standards, anyway.

bigreddiver.bsky.social•2 days ago

Had to pile on … for your numbers LOL

Hee. I can't keep replying though.

Never.
Shunned forever in my book.

Agree. Shame on them. Shame on us for not doing a better job to get out the vote.

lordkillerbee.bsky.social•1 day ago

They gotta take that shame to grave especially if/when we get out of this dystopian hellhole

keep-the-light-on.bsky.social•1 day ago

I'm furious too, but I will tell you some of them are truly remorseful, and if we don't welcome them into the opposition, they will likely double down and align with Trump/Musk. This is what happens to those attempting to break free from oppressive cults. We need them. Don't shut them all out.

I'm more pissed at the ones who were too lazy or too uninterested to fill out a form to save their democracy.

dell-adams.bsky.social•2 days ago

Uncommitted is a completely different story. While they didn't endorse Harris, they advocated for a strategic vote... for Harris.

With all due respect, nonsense.

dell-adams.bsky.social•2 days ago

With any respect that is due--did you read the article?

fleurdelisa.bsky.social•2 days ago

Always does.

The problem is, it wasn’t fast…this is the culmination of decades of policy. Of little moves…this is the end game of Republican’s stated policy. And it is decades of “oh I don’t believe it”. Hell this is built on some choices over 100 years old are this point.

sossity.bsky.social•2 days ago

We must believe in, practice & work for Democracy for it to work for all of US; or else, it’s merely a nice little political theory on paper.

And they can all hang with him. In a stadium.

nor will they ever take responsibility

Blame the billionaires, the tech bros, the republicans.
And of course Joe Rogan.

Bring this fight to their social media.

"4.7 million voters purged. 3.2 million registrations rejected. 2.1 million mail-in ballots tossed."

soovrit.bsky.social•2 days ago

The amount of detail and analysis laid out in an easy to follow numbers!!

jacksuggs.bsky.social•2 days ago

Took a few decades, actually.

dag44.bsky.social•2 days ago

Never forgiven!

susanmcgraw88.bsky.social•2 days ago

@ruthbenghiat.bsky.social said it would happen rapidly...fascism and authoritarian governments occur all of a sudden when it's too late. I'm distressed as we all are, by those who foolishly voted for #45...he told us his plans...they may still not believe his intent- until it hits them directly.

glen2.bsky.social•2 days ago

Amen. I find it hard not to be bitter with those 77 mln dullards who were warned before Nov 5th and still chose fascism.

andrewtd.bsky.social•2 days ago

I’m with you on that!

jhspace1999.bsky.social•2 days ago

"Banana Republic Defamation League" WILL be in touch about that insulting comparison!

jacqueblue.bsky.social•1 day ago

Sadly, it wasn't fast. Heritage Foundation has been working on it for decades. But they personally worked on it with trump since his first term. They just implemented it fast. Because it was all written out in nice little book on the internet, free for anyone to read. Project 2025. Hiring a yr prior

pjdegenaro.bsky.social•1 day ago

Oh FFS, I know. I lived through Reagan, two Bushes and the first Trump. Oh, and Nixon too, though I was very young. Allow me some emotional inaccuracy in a short social media post.

jacqueblue.bsky.social•1 day ago

My apologies. I was in no way arguing with you or trying to correct you. I keep forgetting social media isn't really about interacting. I understand the emotional part of it. I spend everyday wondering if it's literally my last due to this.

leftycoaster.bsky.social•2 days ago

People who voted for Trump, voted 3rd Party or didn’t vote at all! Those are the assholes we’ll never forgive.

superichie.bsky.social•2 days ago

Voting uncommitted in the primary had nothing to do with Trump winning and asserting that it did is insanely disingenuous.

pjdegenaro.bsky.social•2 days ago

Not talking about the primary.

superichie.bsky.social•1 day ago

Uncommitted isn’t an option in the general…

pjdegenaro.bsky.social•1 day ago

Voting for neither major party candidate IS an option and a bunch of people did it. And a huge number of people sat home on their asses. I call that uncommitted.

superichie.bsky.social•1 day ago

That’s called not voting or voting third party, which I agree is fucking stupid and a reason we have Trump. Uncommitted was a specific primary option in 2024 for people upset with Biden’s handling of Israel-Palestine.

stevehartzler.bsky.social•2 days ago

MAGA morons don't want forgiveness. They want everyone else deported or put up against a wall.

Blame the Democratic Party for not being able to beat an incompetent babbling narcissist

pjdegenaro.bsky.social•2 days ago

No.

laineyk.bsky.social•1 day ago

I just learned a former “You’re supporting genocide!” friend I clashed with during the campaign reached a “mutual” agreement to leave her lucrative, highly flexible job in the travel industry after ranting now on her very public Facebook account about Trump & Elon Musk’s fuckery. Sorry not sorry.

audiomite.bsky.social•2 days ago

We have been warned this could happen if he was reelected and guess what we were right. The MAGATS at least voted for who they wanted. There were over 90 million registered voters who didn’t vote. They should eat shit and die.

pjdegenaro.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yup.

serialowybohater.bsky.social•2 days ago

I can hardly imagine the shame you feel now :(

snidleywhiplash.bsky.social•2 days ago

Absolutely

heather50.bsky.social•2 days ago

I don’t know or recognize this country. I won’t go back…I won’t forgive. Things are changed. In fact a revolution is coming and there’s going to be a side to choose.
