Except, the planet will be fine. We’re killing our ability to live on it for sure but the earth will go on even if it’s just microbes for a few million years
Yeah cool Malcolm, it’s been 30 years, you don’t need to give this speech every time uses it as shorthand for “in the context of our continued survival on it”.
People have been screaming at you for 8 years that “Not Trump” is not a viable election strategy. You need to offer an actual, concrete alternative. Until the Democrats start actually offer real alternatives, they will continue to be shocked these results.
I don’t need to offer anything. I’m from a country with a parliament, ranked choice voting, proportional representation. But if you still don’t get that not Trump should absolutely be better than “whatever, I guess”, you deserve what’s coming.
Punishment? No. To get exactly what they actively chose to make happen? Of course.
Interesting that you’d frame “consequences if their actions” as “punishment”. Because punishment is usually a consequence of your actions, while not all consequences are punishment.
OK but the first guy is still going to kill you
I’m really hoping that this wasn’t the reasoning people had for throwing the planet under the bus
I agree with most everything you said.

It’s an important distinction, imo. “Everything dies” vs “humans die”
Luckily the truth is pretty far in the middle.

So you believe that people who don’t vote for what you want deserve punishment?
Punishment? No. To get exactly what they actively chose to make happen? Of course.
