"Yes, you did. He told you exactly what he was going to do, and you still voted for him."

Leopards, meet face...

[–] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 50 points 3 weeks ago

Yes, you fucking did, racist hypocrites.

Among the political groupings I despise, it's the single issue voters. They are finally experiencing the consequences of their actions just to get rid of immigrants and lgbt.

Just because I voted for the leopards eating people's faces party, it doesn't mean that I voted for any leopards to eat anyones faces okay?

Voting isn't a Rorschach test like they seem to think it is. It's giving a blank cheque to one guy so you better have some trust what's he going to do with it.

Especially when he's published his detailed plan months before.

And you have 4 years and 34 convictions of precedent.

Ok, but most Americans didn't vote for Trump tho. He's not undefeatable. He's just a con man.

Most Americans didn't vote

And not voting is voting for what ever happens next

Honestly as an Australian its baffling to me that peoples "freedoms" take precedent over mandatory voting.

Mandatory voting means one HOUR over three or four YEARS must be exhausted getting your ass to a polling booth and ticking a box. It's not a big deal. The upsides so significantly outweigh the downsides.

The US registration system is literally designed as a barrier - it's why we have such pathetic turnout compard to countries with automatic registration.

[–] i_am_hiding@aussie.zone 1 points 1 day ago

Australia doesn't have automatic registration either, which is baffling in its own right considering we have mandatory voting.

When you turn 18 you need to register to vote, thereby placing your name on the list for any and all future elections.

[–] Goldholz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Idk how it is in australia but for me the fact that you have to REGISTER to vote is baffeling!

The state knows where you live! It knows everything about you. Why does he not know if you are allowed to vote but that you can be drafted?!?

[–] AccountMaker@slrpnk.net 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah that's a really weird concept. In Serbia you just get mail some time before elections that tell you where to go to vote, and you either go there where they have your name already and you just show them your ID, or you don't go and then you didn't vote.

Thats because non-citizens can be drafted.

Not if you're a billionaire. Billionaires don't want the people to choose what the government does

[–] Liljekonvalj@feddit.org 3 points 3 weeks ago

That might be true, but from what I've understood- most of the people that voted didn't vote for him. This shows so obvious what everyone has known for decades: America's voting system is flawed in of itself
