These might be the good old days. Go outside, feel the grass, say wassup to your neighbors,... whatever you do that means community, because sh*t might get bad for a while.

If you are a leftist and didn't vote. It is abso-fucking-lutely your fault.

The DNC unilaterally presented Harris who received 20% less votes than Biden in 2020. Non-voters have sent a clear message that it is the DNCs fault.

So you don't vote to make a point? And that point is that you're screwed for at least the next 4 years? Good call

Maybe being roughly screwed for 4 years is better than being gently screwed for 12+ years by a party that argues in court that it doesn't have to follow any voting rules because it is a private corporation.
