No, he said they voted for a racist, because they’re idiotic misogynists.
I don’t think most of them even realize what they voted for.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion seems wrong when you don’t take into account all the various ways that systemic racism already screws over minorities.
Does it seem wrong that schools and companies will pick a minority vs a white person even if the minority candidate isn’t as qualified? Sure, I get why it might feel that way in a microcosm. In the macro-sense though, minorities on average make less money, live in worse neighborhoods and therefore wind up going to much worse schools, have less opportunities to get ahead and make money, and generally have a MUCH, MUCH tougher time breaking out and succeeding. White people purposely wrote laws that made it difficult for people to get ahead. Our society and laws are stacked against a lot of these people. DEI was a way to start trying to level the playing field, a way to start getting these people ahead, into better schools, more lucrative jobs…offering people a step up.
Getting rid of these initiatives is going to make things harder for a lot of people.
Omg. You act like Democrats have had the ability to get shit passed. Many of these things you want require Congress, and we’ve been locked down by Conservatives and DINO’s (See Manchin and Sinema). We’ve never had a super majority that would allow this stuff to get passed. We have plenty of Democrats in power that are advocating for these things and we have plenty of support for the people for things like this. Things were moving in a positive direction, and sure, they could have moved faster, but at least things were becoming more progressive over time. But no no, let’s completely ignore every accomplishment that Democrats have done for the last 20 years and instead hyperfixate on all the things they still haven’t done.
Like, what’s your point? What are you trying to achieve? Make Democrats look bad? For what purpose? Are you one of those Lemmy.ml guys?

Israel, if you can’t honor your promises and agreements, you can expect that no one will ever take you seriously as an ally again. You’ve demonstrated time and time again that you are incapable of being trusted.
Whew. I did, in fact, read it.
There was no need to be rude in your post about it.
Turns out the numbers are still being updated. They’ve gone up about since you posted (and funny enough, Trump no longer has above 50% of the vote - i.e. the mandate of the people). I’ll admit that I was getting my information from Stephen Spoonamoore, and that the data does not match up with the current results. I went and pulled the numbers as well and it looks like it’s even lower than what you found based on comparison to Senate data. However, I’m not a security specialist, nor am I a data analyst. I was deferring to people that have more experience than me.
That said, I’m not saying that it was rigged - I am however saying that a bunch of weird shit happened, and I’m hoping that someone looks into deeper JUST TO BE SURE. It looks like Pennsylvania is actually doing a recount - if they come back with nothing, I’ll shut up about it. And yes, it’s entirely skepticism, I’m not in denial about Trump winning.
I don’t get why there’s such a hesitation about being sure of something. It’s like smelling smoke, and being told to stfu about there being a fire…that everything is working as intended. Like, do I have “evidence” of there being a fire? No, but…why tf wouldn’t we just establish that nothing is on fire, just to be on the safe side.
I 100% agree that none of the things suggested are “evidence,” but without some sort of investigation, no one will ever actually be able to get any evidence.
If you actually wind up responding, try not to strawman me this time as some sort of election denier, “do your own research” kook. I didn’t do that to you, did I?
Yeah… remember how much conservative media was making fun of coke-addled Hunter Biden?
Now we have coke-addled Trumpy Jr. Making the goofiest fucking cabinet picks the world has ever seen.
Within every election, there is a certain number of bullet ballots to be expected. The norm falls around 1-2% or so, with an expected margin of error. Every swing state (and ONLY swing states). Hit around 5-12%. The percent of bullet ballots has drastically gone down. I think the percent was so hi due to early counts in the week after the election.
There were 57 bomb threats that targeted ballot counting stations. All in swing states.
In pretty much every swing states, Trump won the Presidency, but Democrats won pretty much every other down ballot race?
The polls were pretty much correct for the swing states… except for the Presidency?
There’s coincidences and then there’s fucking Looney Toons levels of improbability.
I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but considering all that, you don’t think a single investigation should occur?
“Settler” = Fucking thieves.
Israel needs to be stopped. They are looking for “excuses” to bomb and raid others. Makes you question whether or not they “let” HAMAS raid them just so that they had an excuse to absolutely genocide the Palestinian people.
I get it. I’ve been watching it on /r/somethingiswrong2024 and /r/verify2024 so I’ve been able to see other people’s data. Stephen Spoonamoore is a data security guy that’s been leading the charge. I would trust most if his information far more than anything you see on the subreddits (already until it’s verified).
You can see them yourself when you aggregate state data and count votes for president vs downballot candidates. The norm is like <1% with a margin of error based on historical data. This is the case for literally every other state except the swing states. The swing states are seeing anywhere from 5-12% bullet ballots. It’s so far outside of the norm that it’s bordering on the improbable.
None of the security experts are thinking that though. Nor does any of the aggregated data support such a hypothesis at the moment. Is it possible? Sure, but I would be hesitant to believe anything without substantial evidence.
It’s wildly worse than you think. The number of bullet ballots in swing states is around 5-12% of the total vote counts. It’s a statistical anomaly that ONLY exists in the swing states. Other things to consider:
There’s odd, and then there’s statistical improbability. We’re boarding on fucking bizarre, and it’s shocking that people aren’t making a bigger deal than this.
It’ll never happen. US Military would never willingly split itself apart, let itself get split apart, or let another nation that it’s not allied with have any sort of Army on its equivalent. The 50 states are here to stay.

I thank we can develop state that our media landscape is beyond toxic. It’s apparent that much of our population is getting fed information through tik Tok, Facebook, and YouTube. Learning how to game the system like the alt-right does would be incredibly worthwhile.
Taxing the upper class was part of their platform though…so…still unsure as to where there against the “working class”.
Her policies were all pretty progressive though: childcare support, taxing the rich, supporting the middle class…short of pushing UBI or free higher education, I really don’t know how much more she could have done without alienating center-democrats.
I mean. Sure…I get that she leaned into the center, but from her perspective (and likely at the advice of her staff) she believed that she already HAD the left and that her goal was to try and speak to centrists to come over to the Democrats side of the aisle “look, we have soo many people from the right even supporting us.” I honestly don’t know how she could have played it differently - it feels like it’s a “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” sort of ordeal. Like, imagine that she pushed a solid progressive campaign and lost…I feel like everyone would have jumped down her throat about not branching out “why did you speak only to the solid, reliable liberals planning to vote you instead of going out to get the votes of others?”. I don’t know. That’s my two cents. If I’m off base, just let me know I’ve been hoping for someone to break it down for me.
