    Friend, I live at least 7 timezones away from you. I appreciate you burning shit down, but the people who voted the orange fascist into power are your friends and family, not me.

      America is so large that it’s very possible that person has no friends or family who voted for trump at all. I know I don’t.

        There can be entire communities that know of no one that voted for the opposite candidate. That’s what helped feed the “stolen 2020 election” narrative. Some truly think that Trump should have won in a landslide because “No one I know likes Biden, how could he have won?”.

        Suddenly everyone is on their high horse about number of time zones away.

        Also is Uber really the number one corporation we need to be fighting right now?

        If the fascists here take over, it’ll be the local ones tbh. But don’t worry, I’m already running a personal trade surplus with the USA. Trump would hate me.
