Most people voting for him aren't denialists, they just don't care about the implications. Really. It's not that they want fascism, but fascism is disconnected from their foreseeable reality because Trump generally projects the persona of someone that makes critical inhouse decisions without worrying about what other institutions or departments are worried about. He projects the antithesis of the problems that people see in front of themselves.
But I'm not talking about the people voting for him. I'm talking about the mealy-mouthed little shits who let him get away with it by hedging bets in institutional positions of power who somehow still have jobs they shouldn't have.

The problem is, you hate him, I hate him, I think everyone who comments here hates him... but like, tens of millions of americans LOVE HIM. They adore him. Hes their hero, and they worship the turd. I hate that this man has SO MUCH support and so many worshippers... it really gets to absurd how far he has fallen in public view and they still love him. He can murder a baby on live tv, and still get support. It's a full on cult... and it's depressing how BROKEN America is that he is their hero. Biff Tannen from Back to the future 2 was a fucking stupid goof who was gaudy and made the town a hellhole... and now I know how he did so.

Because people worship at his altar.

We need the Green yiffing Lantern, because there are millions of people here worshipping evil's might.

I choose to mentally believe Harris is our universe's version of Ms. Marvel.

Well, TBH, those comics have conditioned me to find the name Kamala reassuring, even if it's pronounced differently. Anyway, THE FINAL DAY: 24 HOURS REMAIN

Yeah, because he has (or at least SEEMS like he has) the one power they all wish to posses: the power to do or say ANYTHING with not just zero repercussions, but with MAXIMUM repercussions on whomever so much as DARES to to see them face any repercussions. So, you know, fascist authoritarianism but with twenty-to-thirty MILLION dictators, somehow.

Can't wait for everything to be done. Voted Kamala, told friends to do so, and I am gladly done. My vote means SHIT where I am but I made my stance.

The election is here and the biggest story in my newsfeed? A squirrel.

If that does not cap off how ludicrous this has all been I do not know what does.
