    Kind of an unsatisfying but still well deserved “TOLD YOU SO” moment… I knew those fuckers would be moronic enough to vote for this shit faced fascist again, while everyone told me to expect a Harris landslide… The fact that everyone talked about fucking grocery prices, tech research, housing prices, kids, abortions, and other (in the grand scheme of things) irrelevant bullshit that won’t matter anymore, while we’re literally about to seal the deal on our fate as a species, tells you clearly that no one wants to understand where we’re headed and what’s at stake.

    But since nothing matters anymore, here’s some more predictions from yours truly:

    • The US will turn into a fascist state (Tankies: AcKcHyUaLlY… ☝🏻🤡)
    • Ukraine is going to get fucked by Russia, genociding them for good. The only chance here would be if NATO went in to liberate Ukraine before Trump is inaugurated, but neither Biden nor the rest of the West is going to have the balls for that.
    • Moldova will follow right after.
    • Taiwan will get fucked by China.
    • The world will fall into an economic crisis due to the fall of TSMC.
    • The rise of far right extremism & politics will continue within Europe.
    • NATO Alliance will be practically gone.
    • Far right countries in Europe will join Russia.
    • Russia & Friends will invade and annex the Baltic States.
    • The world globally failing to do anything to curb emissions will fall into a climate collapse. Causing food and water shortages, severe natural disasters, millions upon millions of climate refugees - which will get shot at the borders due to the now far right policies. All other issues above will amplify with the world state worsening and becoming more and more unstable.

    TLDR: Nothing fucking matters anymore, we’re done. Thanks, you dumb fucks.

      It’s going to be a world war. They wrote my whole family’s fucking epitaph with this election.

        Who’s going to war with whom? To me it seems more likely that all the countries are going to embrace totality peacefully.

      Eh… I don’t know, man. I also see a darker future, but if Trump didn’t do anything like this in 2016, it won’t happen in 2024. He’s older, he’ll just want to play golf.

      Edit: Downvoted. I just hope that the repubs get almost nothing of value done like they did in 2016-2020. Sucks that the abortion rights were taken away, sure. But they couldn’t repeal Obamacare or build their precious wall, all because they’re a bunch of incompetents. I hope it’s the same case this time around. I’m not too optimistic, but I can only hope.

        They have the courts on their side now, along with the senate I think the house as well. They have a literal plan outlined on hundreds of pages on how to transform the US, which is not just Trump, but the majority of the Republican party - along with a bunch of outside influences.

          Just shut the fuck up, man. Do you think I’m happy about all this? My rights have been eroded whether I like it or not. I’m just hoping that they are not eroded further. I don’t understand your stupid comment.

          Unless I misunderstood you and you’re in fact a republican threatening me, in which case, doubly go fuck yourself.

            No, you just sound like an idiot if you think shit is not going to hit the fucking fan. Day fucking one he’s deporting people. It’s going to get ugly. So stop making it seem like it’s going to be okay.

              I just wished you stopped name-calling me since it makes you sound like a edgelord teen.

              You’re entitled to your opinion. I understand that you’re angry. So am I. But I can’t do shit about what’s about to happen. So I prefer to remain hopeful and do whatever I can to continue supporting the communities that will be affected by what the majority of Americans legitimately decided in democracy.

                I understand wanting to be hopeful, I’m trying too. What you said originally sounded like you’re downplaying all of this, and I’m assuming that’s why you got downvoted so much.

                I hope supporting our communities will be enough for this next 2 to 4 years, but only time can tell.

                And I’m sorry I called you a dumbass.

                  No harm done, brother. Infighting is precisely what they want us to do. Sorry I reached the way I reacted too.

                  But anyway, the whole situation sucks, and I’m very aware of that. I decided not to give that orange asshole any more attention than the strictly necessary. And in turn I’ll focus my energy on signaling strength to those who are too sad and scared for the future.
