    libs on reddit love posting this narrative. "lol the dumb arabs thought trump would be better so now they're gonna get deported for being muslim because trump is racist, unlike me" meanwhile nobody thought trump would be better, just that biden/harris couldn't be worse than what's already happening. for the year leading up to election day, all we heard was "progressives/leftists/young people will give the election to trump if they abstain from voting just because they don't like harris" but why is anybody obligated to vote for someone who they actively don't support the policies of, just because these other people do, and somehow that obligates the rest of us? they can't comprehend that their candidate is no better than the other one on anything other than rhetoric. the democratic party knew what would happen but rather than changing their course and even paying lipservice to progressives and leftists and young people, they took cheyney endorsements, went further right, and literally plugged their ears to people's protests. they gave trump the election, not people who didn't vote or voted third party
