I'm fucking sick of the whining. You've got an actual goddamn fascist on one side and probably a black chick on the other and you think enough of your fellow Americans are evil enough to let the fascist win? Maybe America is just not worth saving then. Really and truly.
America is the only civilized nation where the gender and race of a candidate is an issue. Why? Because America is a racist, misogynist country, where more than half the inhabitants believe fucking angels are real. It's a backwards country, you dig?
You know what other countries are so obsessed with gender and race and orientation? Third World ass banana republics. Congratulations, America, you're almost as evolved as Rwanda. You might actually let a black lady run for president. Not win, apparently, but ain't you woke?
Anyone who thinks Biden OR Harris is a "leftist" is mentally defective. If that's you, I'm calling you an imbecile to your face. If that's your daddy, fuck your daddy for the moron he truly is. If that's your spouse, boy you lost that lottery.
In America, unfortunately, imbeciles are not only allowed to vote, they're encouraged. "Don't know shit about anything? Never been more than twenty miles from where your momma dropped you? Can't read? Go and make decisions that affect the entire planet, numbnuts, it's your duty!"
And so we encourage these halfwits to go and make choices for the rest of us, and you know what? Turns out there's a whole lot more halfwits in America than sane people. Know how I know? Because Trump was president! And might be again! You have any idea how embarrassing that is?
Do you know how embarrassing it is to be an American abroad? Do you get that the only people who still want to come there and stay are fleeing fucking death squads? No European wants to come to America anymore except to visit, folks, because America is the world's trap house.
It's fun and you can shoot guns, but it's full of morons and Nazis and the most spoiled hapless vapid ignorant provincial motherfuckers who ever lumbered across the earth, gobbling everything they can and whining because nobody held up a special card with their name on it.
Fucking nobody wants to come to some shithole where they think a candidate having a brown pussy is a deal-breaker for anyone but the trashiest of trash. Any "moderate" who wouldn't vote for Harris isn't a moderate, they're just a fascist with a Prius. Your parents are Nazis.
And those of you who won't go for Harris because she's not left enough: you're never going to win, do you get that? You are never. Going. To. Win. You are Americans. All you can do is not lose everything.
Which you will, you self-absorbed whining little shits.
I know who Trump is, and if you don't, fuck you for a hapless idiot and an insensate child. I know that history is not very interesting when there's idiot influencers and pop stars to obsess over, but get your puckered little assholes greased, cause Trump will fuck you in them.
Probably literally. There are always men like him, you dig? And when you let them into power, they do what men like them always do.
So maybe Harris will stop Israel and maybe she won't. But Trump will bring genocide to your door.
Not rich white assholes' doors: yours.
You wanna see what he lets those fucking Neanderthals he calls a fan base do once he's got immunity and can grant it again too?
Welp, imagine everything you don't read because of content warnings, except there's no content warnings when it's standing over you at 4am.
There is no electoral path that definitely leads to the Palestinian genocide ending. It's disgusting, but so is America, full stop, no qualifier. But there are a lot of paths that lead America to get just as bloody as Gaza, and they all lead through Trump.
If you stay home, he wins. If you vote for someone who can't win, he wins. Because every idiot bigot in America is gonna turn up for that fascist cunt and there are a lot of them. Maybe more than there are of anyone else, and certainly more than there are leftists in America.
So while you practice self-care and stay home due to your conscience, they're gonna elect a man who will let them quite literally hang you on a meathook if it makes them chant his name. If you don't think so, you don't know a fucking thing about history or humans at all.
Y'all are probably right. A lot of "moderates" won't vote for Harris, because they're actually all just Nazis, the way everyone who let Hitler come to power was a Nazi, even the ones who weren't.
Has history cared why they let it happen? No. We don't care about their motives.
We don't care if they were just sick of the Weimar Republic or if they thought it wasn't sufficiently socialist or what they thought. We just burned their cities and shot them and tried and hung them afterwards for being collaborators. Zero fucks given.
Will that be you?
Or maybe you fancy yourself one of the Resistance, in a beret and a leather jacket. Is that your fantasy?
When's the last time someone broke your nose, there, Che Guevara? When's the last time you took a shit in the woods? Anxiety playing havoc on your executive function?
Yeah.
I've had my nose broken and I've shit in the woods and I've beaten the living fuck out of other dudes and I know how to use a gun and I would do anything to avoid that shit. Especially if all it was was going into a booth and pushing a button that says The World Isn't Fair.
It's not fair for the Palestinians. It's not fair for the kids who'll grow up never seeing butterflies. It sucks for every one of us whose ideals were betrayed at every turn by the people who were supposed to look out for us.
But it can get a lot less fair very quickly.
No one will remember you for your convictions or your ideology. They will only remember you as a fool who was too far up your own ass to see the danger when it came for you - and not just you.
They will remember you the way they remember that generation of Germans.
A lot of those people, by the way, thought they would just get out if Hitler came to power. They discovered that the rest of the world didn't need shoemakers and baristas and house painters.
Wait... do you think that's changed, kiddo?
Do you think Canada needs more social media managers? Do you think England wants you? It barely wants me and I'm married to one of its native roses and speak better English than most English do.
The Netherlands are not short on TikTok weed reviewers, sorry. You're staying put.
Especially when millions of you think you're gonna run. Shit, they won't let you on the plane. Mexico? You think Mexico needs a bunch of dumbass gringos? Mierda, mi hermano. Nah.
You either fix America right fucking now, or get locked away in it forever.
So suck it up. The babies are going to die and the world is going to burn and you can't stop it. All you can do is stop it from happening where you live. So fucking do that. Show up and sweep this stupid fascist fuck into the Trainspotting toilet of history.
And you'll be haunted for the rest of your life, the same way my generation is, by the faces of the people killed by guns and bombs you paid for.
That's part of being American too. We try to fix it, and sometimes we stop a few bullets, but mostly that's how Americans like it.
The same people who would vote for Biden but not Harris like the murder if it's somewhere else. They're bigots and fascists too.
You can't get rid of them, but you don't have to let them win, even if you still lose.
Look, it's midnight here in Britain and I'm exhausted. Shout at me all you like but I'm not going to hear it and I'll probably ignore it tomorrow.
Save your breath for when they waterboard you for being a "cultural Marxist" next year.

I've been trying to warn you by posting about Vance and his admiration of and probably connection to Curtis Yarvin, and the people that influence those guys, like Julius Evola. I tried to tell you that this is not just the usual conservative bigotry.
I was apparently unclear.
You need to be thinking of names like Pol Pot and Idi Amin and Joseph Kony, not Newt Gingrich or Ronald Reagan. You need to be thinking of public executions and Handmaid's Tale shit as an aperitif before the entrée. You need to be thinking Randall Flagg here.
Evola wanted a literal return to empires of masters and slaves, an end to modernity. That's why these guys are called neo-monarchists and refer to their little Keebler tree of batshittedness as the "Dark Enlightenment".
I grew up in Texas around people like the ones Vance writes about in Hillbilly Elegy, and they really are the most self-pitying, self-defeating jackasses the world has ever seen. They got nothing to em but resentment and rage, it's all they've had since Reconstruction.
Everything is someone else's fault: minorities, "elites", foreigners, anybody but themselves. They are incapable of adapting to a changing world and hate anyone who is capable. Most entitled motherfuckers I've ever met anywhere in the world. They think America owes them.
But when Obama created programs to teach em how to code and do other technical jobs, they refused to enroll. They just want to work in the mines like Granddaddy did, or in factories that don't exist anymore because the fuckers they vote for sold American labor out in the 1980s.
Two books I recommend everyone owns: The New Complete Book Of Self-Sufficiency by John Seymour and the Reader's Digest Complete DIY Manual. Both are widely available in English probably anywhere books are sold, new and used. Get them. Read them. Keep them safe. 😂❤️
I also recommend getting your hands on David Gingery's series on how to build a working machine shop from scratch. I've just ordered a used copy of The Complete Manual Of Woodworking, I'll let you know what I think of it, but I've heard excellent things.
I have a small library here in England, but I've got a lot of manuals and DIY books as ebooks stored redundantly on multiple hard drives, the cloud, as well as multiple tablets, a Kindle, my phone, my iPad, etc. It's a tradeoff for portability I can live with.
Someone asked me what my solution to all the climate stuff is. I have no solution, I don't think there is *a* solution, but I have ideas. Just ideas. Here's one of them.
Imagine with me a village or neighborhood, maybe even your own. Imagine some upgrades. 🧵
Every roof of every building - single family house, apartment building/estate, commercial building - is covered with solar panels that store energy in a battery array in the building itself, and then can pass it to the grid if necessary as long as the batteries are full.
The local grid is also a microgrid that can function independently of the main grid, albeit at a reduced capacity. Maybe there's also a couple of wind turbines in the park or micro+hydro in the local stream or river too.
There is no scenario where unmitigated climate collapse does not cause massive worldwide civilizational disruption, particularly as our civilization's economics and supply chain is globalized rather than localized. And there is no mitigation without disruption of fossil fuels.
There's no scenario where we keep burning fossil fuels at the rate we are and our civilization survives it. None. Carbon credits are a scam, artificial carbon sequestration is a non sequitur. There's no free lunch in physics or in nature, only in economics, which is fantasy.
The argument is that people need fossil fuels to survive. My answer is: the people who need them will die if they keep using them anyway, along with the rest of us, so that's not an answer to the problem. It's merely describing another urgent facet of the larger problem.
The problem with AI is that computer scientists have spent decades to perfectly artificially create a gullible, hapless cretin who believes everything it's told without critical reasoning faculties, and the world was really not short on those to begin with.
They've also managed to prove that literally any idiot can code by making artificial idiots that do, thus undermining their own self-appointed position as the technological priesthood of our age. It's an incredible self-own if you think about it.
They're also showing off their own stupidity by offloading the design and implementation of God only knows how much crucial civilizational architecture to AIs that will cheerfully thank you for correcting them if you tell them 2+2=5.
