I was just thinking that she is probably going to win. Will be pretty funny too see the Trump diehards go into a full meltdown. The conspiracies will be even more crazy. Who knows, maybe they try to overthrow the government without a sitting president

A meltdown from either side will be equally entertaining. That’s the nice part about hating democrats and republicans the same.

God help me I think I hate the liberals more than the chuds

[–] [email protected] 36 points 2 days ago

Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.

MLK nailed it in "Letter from Birmingham Jail".

Whichever one is the smuggest, that one is the worst

It's a toss-up. (CW: faint homophobic subtext, but presented in mockery of that homophobia)

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

The chuds probably are worse people on average, but you know what I hate far more than a bad person? A bad person who tries to manipulate you while pretending to be your friend. That is the liberals to their core, something the chuds would never do.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

The entitlement to your support which liberals feel for sucking a fraction of a percent less than chuds makes it so annoying whenever they tank their own chances and lose elections by being insufferable status quo merchants, because they turn you into a pariah for not being as privileged and/or stupid as they are. In their eyes, they can never fail, they can only be failed

nowhere near as entertaining as watching smug liberals with huge "HARRIS WALZ OBVIOUSLY" banners across their house eat shit

EDIT: here's my case— Jan 6 was funny, sure, but not as funny as election night 2016 when that snot-eating creep John Podesta had to come out and tell all the crestfallen liberals to go home

[–] [email protected] 33 points 2 days ago

This, honestly I'd like to see some Jan 6 but with pussy hats, "I'm With Her/I'm Speaking" slogans, and radlib shit this time around. Though whoever wins, humanity loses (or rather the empire goes as usual- thankfully to its grave, however it might get there varies).

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I need this. Psychologically, I need to see these smug gaslighting slaughterers eat shit

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 days ago

"if you're still in line, STAY IN LINE" and "she can still win if you, VOTE"

Are, on their own, better than anything from J6...aside from maybe that lady getting domed and being outed as a secret antifa super-soldier

[–] [email protected] 39 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I think Harris will narrowly win, and then the election will be contested. After that? Things start to get really funny.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 2 days ago (4 children)

tied at 269 all inshallah

Death to America

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 days ago

Crypto billionaires start bidding wars for unfaithful electors. They buy exactly same number from both sides

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 days ago

Funniest option is that the tie comes as a result of not one, but two faithless electors (one from each party)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

I think it would go to the Senate where there's a 50-50 split so the Harris would be the deciding vote.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

Them sharing the qhitehouse spunds like a funny as hell sitcom

Genuine: What tells you she is probably going to win?

From all the polls I've seen, it doesn't look good for her. Last time I checked Trump was even doing exceptionally well in early voting, which is one aspect Dems usually dominate.

I also agree it's funny to watch hogs meltdown, but I don't think it would be/can be any worse than what they already do/have done.

Many already think she forced out Biden and/or has been secretly running things and screech accordingly. Jan 6 wasn't a failure because they were actually peaceful protesters or whatever they cope with, it was a failure because they are unorganized and unequipped for that level of action, so I don't see another overthrow attempt either, though obviously I would love to be wrong about this.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago

She's going win because it would freaking own the CHUDs obviously

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

She will win because it is the most boring outcome

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

Idk, nothing ever happens bros don't have the best track record lately.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Seems like the quality polls in swing states are favorable for her

[–] [email protected] 30 points 2 days ago

Popular vote loss but electoral victory would be funniest outcome.

Either way the winner should ban video games.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Much as I despise her from my very core, I'd prefer if Kamala won only because I want to hear blueMAGAts seething when I smug at them like "she's not my president".

[–] [email protected] 28 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

the media will give them a thought-terminating cliché to use just like after every past humiliation

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 days ago (1 children)

im sorry to tell you this, but nothing about this will be at all entertaining

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

I dunno. It'll be like watching a car crash, and we can all laugh about Dale Earnheart now.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Assuming somehow rhe dems don't either blow this or then concede an election they won for the sake of "moving forward as a country."

It will be fairly funny to watch Maga try to do another insurrection using the exact same playbook that failed last time when they tried the same thing.

"Patriots need to go to Washington to make their voices heard. Now I know I said this last time and then you guys did that, we accomplished nothing and then we immediatly called you all antifa and let you all get arrested and sent to prison and I've repeatedly dissavowed you, but please do the exact same thing again. Also I wont be able to keep the national guard from showing up so there will be meaningful opposition.

Also we dont have half a dozen people who might have some kind of authority to throw a wrench in the works this time around.

Please. "

They do that again in 2028 and 2032, and every election after that, so much that "The Running of the Capitol" becomes a tradition. It becomes a corporate sponsored event with vendors and live music.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Step away from the lathe.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

eventually, it becomes so much part of the inauguration ceremony of a new president that when they dont turn up to "take the capitol" one time, america doesnt accept the newly elected president. and that's when their system falls apart entirely.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 days ago

Chuds will do beer hall putsches. Again.

Sure it will be clownish, but people will also die, and some of those that die may not be clowns this time.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 days ago (2 children)

The current betting market aggregates have Trump at about 62% chance to win, Harris at 37% .

All she had to say was 'we won't fund genocide'

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Fascists don’t care about elections or democracy. If they win they are going to push the country to a crisis and seize power indefinitely until they collapse. When they lose they’re going to push the US to crisis then seize power and seize power indefinitely until they collapse.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

The only consolation prize to seeing Harris win is just watching some of the smuggest grins in the country meltdown. At the very least, while Harris is a fascist, enough libs know Trump is one too.

Maybe it will make the 4chan crowd look not-so-invincible after all? IDK, but regardless maybe Harris will buy me four more years for an exit strategy.
