    This was all over Lemmy, too, along with all the other social media platforms.

    It pretty much disappeared everywhere the instant trump won, as well as the complaints about grocery prices and the lies about gas prices.

    The exception was lemmy, prob thanks to hex, grad, and ml, where people still find the time to randomly inject democrat hate.

      It’s not surprising that talk about the election was greatly reduced after the election ended.

        Lol, sure dude. Nice try redirecting.

        The election suddenly wasn’t stolen because trump won.

        The gas prices went up after trump won.

        Egg prices were just as expensive after trump won.

        The point isn’t the election ending, the point is not caring about the manufactured problems.

        But you knew that, didn’t you. Of course you did.

          Democrats are great at blaming everything but themselves for losing. I remember people like you on here claiming that the protests about the genocide in Palestine stopped once Trump won but that’s plain bullshit, and there were protests against the genocide in Palestine specifically calling out Trump in my city even after the election.

          Now you’re trying to paint me as a Trump supporter for pointing out that discussions about elections tend to reduce outside of elections. What happened to the “rational liberal” that democrats pride themselves on being? Don’t you have some lesser evil acts to carry out? Maybe some people to tie to train tracks?

          Next time democrats should try pushing for policies that people want instead of relying on “vote blue no matter who” which clearly didn’t work, even though I voted for Harris. Guess I didn’t vote hard enough, huh?

            There you go, changing the subject. Butwhatabout…. Sosdd, never answering the rebuttal and just making up new things to talk about.

            Whatever man. Pound sand.

              Your only point is that democrats aren’t at fault. That you think people protesting the genocide of Palestinians is a “manufactured problem” speaks volumes. Biden was bypassing congress to supply weapons for that genocide, but you somehow still think it’s not the fault of democrats or that it’s not a problem at all.

      “This disappeared after the election except where it didn’t, where it’s bad that it didn’t”.

      Really trying to have it both ways

      You’d be surprised, some pos from your instance was my first argument here who was echoing this sentiment. Funny enough,I just saw they randomly unblocked me. Furryosa still thinks you’re a bad person tacobuttplug!

      That’s because it was a push by foreign propaganda campaigns to influence the US election. Israel and Russia both had a vested interest in having Trump win.

        Or it could be that the Democrats are so unpopular that a billion dollars can’t win them an election. No, you’re right, it’s because of Russia the Democrats failed to communicate their platform effectively.

          It’s both. The Democrats are incompetent, but it’s also true that Russia used their vast propaganda network to influence the election. This isn’t exactly some secret.
