I never wore my “I voted” sticker. Yesterday, I found it in a stack of papers and it kind of hit me all over again how important this election was. I don’t know where I’m going to keep the sticker, but I’m definitely keeping it.

Stop.
Not scolding you, just telling you to shut the fuck up. No one wants to hear from you.
I saw some cameras outside of the Newseum, but I thought it was just another news report. If I had known she was inside, I would have dashed out the car to give her a hug* and tell her awesome she is.
*And promptly be tackled by security. But it’s the thought that counts.
No, we’re not.
Jesus Christ. You need to write a book.
I still can’t wrap my head around how NOBODY here has mentioned the fucked up DNC other than you. If “drain the swamp” can apply to anything, it would be in this instance. They took a shit all over their supporters.
God - you’re so right. [Going to hide in hole right now...]
Each day I’m more and more convinced that the commenters on Jezebel have never met anyone that isn’t like them (except their uncle or in-laws that they hate). The inability to grasp we lost is astonishing. The majority of people don’t find identity politics appealing. Most people vote for what they perceive to be the…
It’s really hard to say because it didn’t actually happen, but visiting, say, Scranton and not actually holding a rally was really stupid.
We LOST because we didn’t VOTE - period. And if you think risking the country because you didn’t get your candidate of choice then YOU suck!
If by ‘white guys’ you include the 53% of white female voters for Trump, I’m with you.
Eh, I’ve been around. I was browbeaten into submission during the primaries, fought the good fight for Clinton in the general, worried about each mistake and called them out in turn, but ultimately stayed loyal to the party. Of course, if you even thought about voting for a socialist in the primaries, you’re among…
I feel like the problems with our elections is the same as the problems with feminism. You can’t jam your ideas down someone else’s throat. Have an opinion, be vocal about your opinion, but express yourself in a non-threatening way because you’ll alienate people who could otherwise be persuaded if you approached them…
“You tanked her and Obama’s platform with Bernie’s education plan for your dogwhistle bullshit.”
Women voted for Trump too and you know it. 55% of those eligible to vote are women. They alone have the power to stop someone like Trump. A lot chose not to.
It appears we have a misunderstanding.
Here’s our plan, from what I can tell:
None of these things are going to work until half of the population can be convinced to stop voting against their own self-interests for fear of the “Other”.
