This is a rhetorical question. Of course we are. Time to start an underground railroad I suppose.

more people voted for this than the alternative, which is the worse part, it was by choice

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 9 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

And the alternative was also evil

Don't let perfect be the enemy of good

About the same, either way, my point was that Americans voted for evil.

Less than 25% of the US population voted for him. Of the people that voted, a majority voted for him, but an overwhelming majority of Americans did not vote for him.

elegible people that didn't vote, allowed it, so was their choice as well

In all fairness a pretty large Google search like right around the election was "did Biden drop out?"

I think the vast majority of the non-voters are completely blissfully ignorant and just do this all day:

I suppose they "allow" it in that they can't even be bothered to give a shit. :/

And the opposition party is gaslighting them into believing that most Americans are on board with all of it to make their job easier

Most Americans are.

This is America. This is the official entry. Chosen.
