This is what the people in Dearborn voted for—along with the people of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, and others.
Across the board, almost every category trended rightward (edit: by way of staying home, you know what I mean) since the last election. Ask yourself: why is your first instinct to attack the tiny minority in Michigan who have been treated as subhuman for months? They’ve been held in constant limbo while their families are killed, ignored as they plea for mercy from a government that continually sinks deeper into racism and hatred.
If I saw my friends and family being treated like irrational animals, I might not be surprised to feel the urge to act irrationally.
You’re not even wrong about your statements, but … have some damn empathy.
They were convinced through our republican controlled media that voting wasn’t worth the effort.
So now my empathy isn’t worth their’s. I hope all 88 million who stayed home on election day have a completely hellish next 2 years. I’m circling my wagons right here at home and watching those apathetic fuckers learn a major lesson.
It’s probably the only way they will learn to pay attention. Or they will die from some weird ass disease.

It didn’t trend rightward.
Democrats stayed home just like they did in 2016.
They were convinced through our republican controlled media that voting wasn’t worth the effort.

Happy Holidays!
It’s not “empathy” if it’s part of some imagined negotiation in your mind.
