Oh this should be interesting. Or terrible!

LOVE this quote:

“It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them,” Sanders said.

Yep, exactly!

Great vid, and I think the guy was 100 percent right. That's exactly what happened.

What he said in the vid:

"I'm interpreting the results tonight as revenge of just the regular old working-class American, the anonymous American who has been crushed, insulted, condescended to. They're not garbage, they're not Nazis. They're just regular people who get up and go to work every day and are trying to make a better life for their kids, and they feel like they have been told to just shut up when they have complained about the things that are hurting them in their own lives."

So much truth.

from the article:

But as Trump stormed to victory last night, Lichtman's miscalculation was unavoidable.

'I'm not doing any interviews, I'm done,' he said.

Good points. I think you're right!

I actually am. You all worshiped the Duopoly soooo much, that you became blind to what was really going on. I didn't vote for him, but I sure as hell didn't vote for Harris.

I didn't support the duopoly. You all did.

The democrats didn't lose because of Trump (or people like me), you all lost because of your entitlement and blindness. The democratic party needs to do a LOT of soulsearching today.

The amount of hate I received on Lemmy, just because I chose not to vote for Harris was insane. And way worse than anything the Republicans ever said.

I think you are taking things little too far, friend. Thanks!

Um, seems like you took things a little too far there, comrade. Be well!

Well, I guess you don't have to worry about that here in the US, because the socialist didn't win. So see? Problem solved. Thanks, comrade!

Meh, the person I voted for didn't win either, so...

Looks like your aggressive support for Harris didn't work out very well.

Maybe don't be a jerk to people just because they don't agree with you--see if that will work better next time, friend!

Dude, it's crazy. I legit got banned from .midwest instance and the reason listed was "conservative." And what's hilarious about that is that I'm a socialist!

But because I didn't worship Harris, I was banned from that and other instances. Fucking hilarious that this is happening right now! lol

Looks like the Democrats (and Lemmy users) didn’t have much luck with the tactic of labeling anyone who didn’t openly support Harris as Nazis, racists, or privileged.

And maybe banning every single person from communities for not being in love with her didn't work out so well either. Oh well!

I remember when a lot of people on Lemmy thought I wouldn't be here after the election. I'm still here.

Hi, everyone! :)

Give me one example where I have "campaigned" for him. Seriously. One link. Feel free to look under my banned name Universal Monk over on lemmy.world too. You won't find anything, because I never campaigned for him.

I voted socialist party, have created and modded socialist party communities under all of my usernames and on every instance I am on.

Posting a news articles on Jill Stein or Donald Trump is NOT campaigning for him. I didn't write them.

I happily voted socialist, but you all showed me WAY more hatred than any republican ever did. Why the fuck would anyone like me, want to jump over to your side?!

I legit got banned from .world c/politics until NOV 6TH. And the mod even put up a calendar post that showed day after election with a smiley face. And that community all celebrated. Look it up in their modlog.

And now here we fucking are! You all thought I was the fucking enemy and I didn't even vote for Trump! LMAO

Your exact attitude is why you all are losing this election (as of now, I mean, it could change too--but it's no landslide). You are so blind with emotion that you think everyone is against you, just because they may not agree with you.

Oh, I did vote. Early even.

Oh I didn't vote for him. But it looks like that didn't really matter anyway, huh?

This is legit the most fun I have ever had on an election night! And I didn't even for him. But I didn't vote for Harris either. :)

I got so many bans for not bowing down to the Harris-worship, people saying I was interfering with the election, and it sure looks like a LOT more people are voting for Trump than anyone thought.

As of now, it could still swing her way, but it's not the landslide that some people thought (including me!) lmao

I still think Harris is gonna win though.

Agreed.
