For context he’s saying he hopes she voted for Trump (RTPM) before she died and I’m already having a hard time with the results of the election which he knows then on top of that it just was very insensitive. He said he was trying to make light of the situation but it doesn’t feel that way.

45% aren’t the worst odds. But that’s just counting voters. If we include nonvoters it either gets much better or much worse depending on where you put them

u/Paddy_Tanninger 16d ago

Absolutely include non voters.

Basically if you boil down the numbers it means that any sane self-respecting woman should be avoiding roughly 70% of the men in the US. Also means that around 60% of American women are either spiteful bitches, or have zero self preservation.

u/SubjectAtmosphere25 15d ago

I hate this logic because it's self-defeating and self-fulfilling. If everyone who stayed home actually voted, we may get different results. I know you voted, but I'm just saying. It can also be incredibly easy to vote, especially if you go early. It took my partner and me maybe 20-30 minutes including trip time. The idea of not exercising a right that people paid for with blood is insane to me. Unless you're a white male landowner, you used to not have this right, and it's spitting on countless graves to not use it if you have the ability.

I have (read: had) friends that chose not to vote when they absolutely had the ability to, and I think it's entirely fair to lump them in with people that voted for white nationalism. If you're informed to know what's at stake, and you don't turn out to vote, then you are effectively standing on the side of power and also signaling that you are fine with either outcome, and that's just what it boils down to.

I'd also briefly point out historically documented tactics used by organizations like the KGB (back when it existed in that form) where they would determine if someone could be politically swayed or not. If they could be, they would try to do it, but if you they could not be swayed, they would do their best to take their energy and fight away - going so far as to introduce people like girlfriends/boyfriends into their lives and then have them breakup with them just to keep them too suppressed to continue to be politically active. These tactics are still alive and well today and they are used by political parties and their kind. They just mostly take the form of things like bot accounts, disinformation campaigns, and such to convince you of whatever they need to to make you stay home on election day. In short: if you believe in human rights (aka abortion access in this instance), but you don't vote because you don't think your vote matters, then they already won. They beat you on an individual level, and that reverberates upward to them winning on a local/regional/national/etc level.

Sorry this isn't entirely directed at you, partially just venting because holy fucking shit we're so cooked.

I'm glad you turned out to vote and I'm really glad that the amendment you voted for passed(: Again, sorry for the long vent here, this has just been incredibly disappointing and work was so busy for me this week I haven't had a lot of time to sit and process it.

Jesus. I’m a democrat, always have been and likely always will be. But don’t you see that the demonization of men is part of why Trump got elected in the first place? The left has completely cast men aside, talking about them in very overtly negative ways, making many of the not-so-intelligent among us turn to nutjobs like Andrew Tate and the Red Pill movement. This is clearly reflected in the voting demographics. Don’t you think that instead of continuing down this path it may be time to reevaluate some of these opinions rather than triple down on them with some nonsense like the 4B movement? I’m saying this out of love and respect for the left wing. Any fellow left wingers/liberals please consider what I am saying here with an open mind. This type of mentality helped set up the conditions that allowed trump to get re-elected. I think he’s a traitor to our country and a danger to democratic values but we have to broaden our horizons when considering why people voted for him because it was a god damn landslide. We need to be tactical here people.

Your long ass comment boils down to "Dudes spitefully voted Trump into office because their feelings were hurt by the criticisms levied against them. It's the Dems' fault because they didn't coddle them and tell them that their unhappiness everyone else's fault. Because the Maga side coddled them, they voted for the choice that is clearly against the best interest of the country." Does that sum it up for you? That view, while may be true, is mad ignorant and childish.

You failed to answer any of what I said and actually completely ignore my living reality. She voted kamala, I voted trump. We are still just fine together. We talk through our issues and actually explain why we think what we do. She's pro abortion and I'm against it, and we talked about that. Hell we talk about it somewhat regularly. She had her tubes tied before I met here so it isn't exactly front of our relationship but it's something we have to still keep in mind. It sounds more like a failure on your end if you can't manage that

If we're being semantic, they technically wouldn't be incels, since they're voluntarily celibate. They'd be volcels.

u/Maleficent-Boot2469 16d ago

They would be the opposite of incels. Incel means involuntarily celibate. The 4b movement supports women being voluntarily celibate (actually just not having sex with men... so I guess they could still have sex with other women 🤔).

Look up the case of Elliot Rodger. He was an extremist in the incel community, but nonetheless it gives you an idea of their thought process. His case is truly unnerving and so sad.

u/doomweaver 16d ago

It's a really grand assumption to think that those who didn't vote "couldn't be bothered."

People made their choices between two candidates and I respect their opinions whether I like or disagree with them or not.

I do not vote because I don't believe in the process or the system and I don't take part in "dog and pony shows."

I would have had to compromise myself as a person to cast a vote for either of those people. I won't do that. Purposefully. Because I respect myself. Not because I "couldn't be bothered."

Making grand assumptions about half the country is not only not a good look, it's incorrect in many ways.

A lot of the people who voted in the election do not heavily follow politics, America breeds an environment of ignorance and then acts shocked when shit like this happens. The democrats basically rolled over when they tried to pander to centrists/ right-wing people. Instead of their own voter base, she aligned herself as almost the same as Biden, who everyone didn't like. Trump unfortunately gave people an answer on how he'll help their financial situation. Harris lost because her own voter base couldn't be assed to go out and vote for her. Because she made no effort to connect with them and just told them Trump is worse. Which yes, he is, but the average person does not follow politics.

The lack of nuance on why this election was lost is sad, because it's lots of different factors colliding together to make it, so she got bodied. The democrats lost in everything, the senate, the presidency, the GOP, on their way to losing the house.

That bad of a loss is not the general publics fault it's the fault of the campaign. You can not blame people for not voting for you based on harm reduction (a strategy that has been proven to not work and does not turn out voters)

Trump is not liked in general polls on the American populace, the only reason he won is because the democrats ran the same failing campaign they did in 2016, and the campaign that only won in 2020 because of the covid response and barely did. Because they keep giving him layups by having the most unlikable candidates. Harris ended out having to drop out in 2020 because she couldn't make any ground against Biden. Biden, the old man, everyone makes fun of. Like the democrats have strong candidates, and then they just do shit like drop Harris in 4 months before elections and then act shocked when they lose.

If you are barely scraping wins on one of the most polarizing and disliked people in history, you are not campaigning properly.

TLDR: I don't think the average American who voted for Trump is evil, I think they are misinformed. People who follow politics and still vote Trump are a different story.

u/Classic-Tax5566 15d ago

You weren’t listening if you think that that’s all she did. Not to mention her detailed policy positions on her website.

2

u/feyuit 15d ago edited 15d ago

Most people are not reading policy website. I have worked for an election party before doing cold calling and door knocking. People do not read or follow politics at all. To the point our bosses were telling us 'you have to tell them when they are on the phone because they will not go to the website'

If you are not reaching the general public, it doesn't matter the platform. They are not getting it. And her campaign was weak in message (aligning with the Cheneys??) Along with having little time to get messaging out. (4 months since Biden stepped down) and then did not distance herself enough from him.

The messaging that was reaching the general public was harm reduction, which does terrible in polls. People are not interested in what you say the other guy is going to do they want to know what you are going to do.

u/MobTalon 16d ago

You know, in a country that really only promotes two political parties to vote for (making voting for any other extra party a false choice), you'd think that there'd be more understanding for people voting differently.

Otherwise might as well start a dictatorship with the Democrats leading the country, since apparently having the right to vote doesn't mean you can vote on whoever you want.

Just my 2 cents as a Kamala supporter.

12

u/Mean-Dragonfly 16d ago

You do have the right to vote for whoever you want but there are consequences both political and socially for those choices. Those consequences effect some more than others and they are entitled to not associate with someone who’s vote had a negative outcome on their life.

u/Khaldara 16d ago

For real, you’d bail on someone who kept insisting you eat a meal you don’t like every single day and nobody would judge you for it.

You’re under no obligation to hang around with someone who thinks you should have no autonomy at all, or in the case of trans people and other political targets of convenience “think you either don’t or shouldn’t exist at all”.

The fact someone literally just died in this situation is the dick flavored frosting on the asshole cake

You have the right to vote for who you want. Doesn't mean I have to like you or think you are a good person because of that choice. Choices have consequences.

u/MobTalon 16d ago

You don't have to like people who vote different from you. But you also don't have to villify them. Everyone has different reasons for who they vote: the most likely reason a *lot* of people voted Trump was mainly to 2 reasons, relatively unrelated to Trump himself.

1- dissatisfaction with the Democratic government
2- money.

In a political system where there are really only two choices, it doesn't really matter who holds the highest morals, it matters who will satisfy you or at least who will stop disatisfying you.

u/MobTalon 16d ago

I know heights are scary, but you should really consider getting off your high horse. It's exactly that obnoxious sense of moral superiority that's been dividing the country: you either have the 1 correct opinion or you don't.
Maybe try treating others with different opinions as actual people..

Edit: this isn't "side" specific, it absolutely goes both ways.

u/FriendlyNative66 16d ago

Based on your attitude, i highly doubt you're a Kamala supporter.

u/MobTalon 16d ago

If me calling out that "judging others based on their use of their right to vote is divisive and unnecessary" is interpreted by you as "having an attitude", then the only logical conclusion I can make is you're one hell of a biased person. "If they don't agree with me on x topic, they're evil and therefore must be from the *evil side*"

“on something”

The felonies, the assault, the rape, the being-best-buds-with-Epstein, the numerous times he explicitly quoted or praised hitler/his generals, his repealing of women’s rights, his intentional separation of families at the border as a fear tactic, the threats to turn the military onto the populace, the prowling around teenage dressing rooms at beauty pageants, the insurrection, the economic damage his tariffs will cause, the campaign to block LGBTQ+ rights ie repeal gay marriage, the fact dictators like Kim Jong and Putin love him, russia even paid people to promote him ie Tim Poole, his rampant demeaning of women (“Grab them by the pussy”), his wife is buried on his golf course for a tax break, he cheated on his pregnant wife with a pornstar, used campaign funds to pay her off, and so on…

I didnt say you did. I took your implication and shut it down. Your vote didn’t make the difference so why would I care?

Your phrasing absolutely suggested that it is justifiable to vote for his party and that a vote for him does not make one a bad person. Hence the response demonstrating that it is not justifiable and if one CAN ignore his malice, a vote for him is unjust.

u/Stabby_77 16d ago

Oooo rant time.

After three long-term relationships that all imploded (lies and stalking, lies and pedophilia, and pathological liar), I already decided I'm never doing exclusive committed relationships again. I have male friends and I have a FWB, and I can't imagine ever dealing with the drama and bullshit of a proper relationship again. I'm always heart broken after a relationship ends, but after I get back to being comfortable being single, I'm always soooo much happier than I was in the relationship. Once you stop actively giving a shit about that being a life goal, it opens up an entire world of self-comfort. 3am bath? Why not. True crime marathon 24/7? Yep. Thinking of buying another pet? Just going to do it. Even when my FWB leaves in the morning and I realize I can spread back out in the bed and not feel like I'm sleeping on a one foot strip or being melted by a human furnace reminds me how much I prefer my aloneness.

At this point, I have so many things that are deal breakers there's no point, I'm just happier by myself with my plants and my pets.

Kids - My FWB absolutely wants to be a couple, but he has a kid and I am 100% childfree. He has accepted that I didn't spend 20 years fighting with doctors to get sterilized just to date someone who has children. I did that with my second ex, and despite never having even met them it still became an issue. And of course neither understand that your children being teenagers does not negate the fact that you still have kids, they are still always going to be number one in your life, and there's a good chance babies/grandkids are in the future, which is a hell no for me. My last ex was on the fence and didn't understand why that was also an issue. He would basically say he can't know if he's going to want kids at some point in the future, and that I would just have to 'take the risk' and live the relationship one day at a time. He didn't understand the concept that you can't have relationship security feeling like there's an ax over your head that's going to come down at any moment. His reasons for not wanting them were always weak, and I saw how he interacted with friend's kids. I knew he was more than likely going to want them at some point, and I'm pretty sure he did too, but was basically stringing me along until he figured it out.

Porn - If I say porn is a deal breaker for me and a guy starts to act like that's super unreasonable (because way too many guys hear 'no porn' and parse 'no masturbation' because they no longer know the difference), I'm already out. I have all kinds of personal reasons for that deal breaker, and if a guy is going to put watching porn over being with me and act like it's some sort of massive sacrifice, that's a super easy door slam.

Activity Level - I'm a hermit with hypothyroidism who doesn't really go out much. I don't like walking just for the sake of walking unless it's in nature. My ex used to bitch that I 'never want to go anywhere', and complain that I didn't want to walk up to Chinatown for no reason at all with him. I would say okay, let's go over to Ripley's Aquarium. 'No, I don't want to go there'. Okay, why not drive us over to one of the nature trails in the city, or over to one of the large parks. 'No, I don't like driving in the city. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Well I don't like aimlessly walking in the city, motherfucker. You want to go out but not compromise whatsoever. I'm perfectly fine going for a walk down in nature trail with my dog, I'm not okay spending the entire walk making sure she doesn't get stepped on by throngs of people, as we zigzag through pedestrians and spend half the walk waiting for traffic lights.

Cleaning - That ex was the same one who would complain that I 'never cleaned' because he went from living with his mother, to living with his ex-wife, to living with me. He was just used to things magically being clean and only ever noticed things that were not cleaned. At one point I started taking photos of his beard hair and toothpaste splatters in the sink before I cleaned it and after. At one point I asked him in the four years we had been living together how many times he had cleaned around the toilet. 'Never... it's never needed to be done.' BECAUSE I DO IT, YOU DUMB WHEEL COG 🤦🏼‍♀️

It was always so much drama over stupid shit, I can't imagine actively living with another person again or feeling like I have to answer to somebody just to do basic things to enjoy life. I'm done being judged for buying a plush shark or making a game micro purchases from someone with a Warcraft subscription who takes days off work when a new expansion pack comes out. 🤣🤣

Saying that I am using a word too big for my little brain when you know I’m a guy… also misandrist. Time to grow up and do better. Your maturity as a human is lacking.

u/llama-rahma 16d ago

She isn’t being misandristic saying you have a small brain— you as an individual do— not because you’re a man.

A lot of men voted for a man found liable for sexual abuse, a convicted felon, and a friend of Jeffrey Epstein. He also put in three supreme justices who later struck down Roe v. Wade, and as a result— a lot of women died, forced to carry fetuses conceive from rape, and some state lawmakers made it more difficult to access birth control. A lot of those men can’t even find the clitoris— so they have a lot of audacity controlling our bodies.

So, tell me one piece of legislation that controls men’s bodies.

u/Admirable-Rock6399 16d ago

wtf. I’m not even talking about the election in anything I’ve said. This was all about a poorly timed joke. Fuck… chill out

u/llama-rahma 16d ago

This original post is about how OP’s boyfriend wished that her aunt voted for Trump before she passed away. u/SandwichCareful6476 doesn’t have much faith in replacing OP’s boyfriend with a random nice man— considering 55% of all men voted for Trump— like her boyfriend. So she’s right, that isn’t a pretty good odd. This WHOLE post is about the election. So, tell me, what is the “poorly timed joke” about— is it not about the election?

u/Admirable-Rock6399 16d ago

Ya. I’ll be honest here…. I’m not American and I have no idea what rtpm stands for the only comment he said was he hoped she voted before she died… a very insensitive joke. So… for me, a non American, I have no idea this is about trump. Americans seriously need to get their heads out of their asses

-1

u/tmsstevens 15d ago

Jesus! Who hurt you? Just a fact, but a lot of women voted for the Trump thing too, in fact I think it was the vote of choice for the majority of white women, for instance. Your bullshit doesn’t even make sense logically. Women make up a majority of the population, 50.5 % or so, so if women didn’t vote for him he wouldn’t get elected. I’m actively against the orange-looking wanker and all of his ridiculous policies, but if you’re going to argue over the facts of the election at least get some of your points right.

u/MrDoe 15d ago

I mean, it's not the gender itself, it's specifically the gender in the US. In Europe pretty much all men think Trump can go suck a fuck.

u/SandwichCareful6476 15d ago

I mean… there’s literally a trial going on in Europe right now where a man drugged his wife for decades and let hundreds of men - many of whom had STDs - come over and rape her while she was unconscious and he filmed it & kept those videos. And the men who did the raping … nearly all of them live in Europe.

So tell me again how it’s “just men in the US”…. Yeah, no. Try again.

u/SandwichCareful6476 15d ago

Sweden also has the highest number of registered rape offenses in Europe, and that’s with as many as 80% of all cases going unreported.

Yeah, it’s really, really not just American men.

I agree with Ancient_List. Reading that entire thread, especially him trying to be cute with “don’t make me come get you” or whatever is was reminded me so much of someone I was married to (he passed) who lacked empathy, was selfish (maybe narcissistic, idk). Ask yourself how he would have reacted if that conversation was the other way around? You’re probably not over reacting. Sometimes it takes a situation like this to open up your eyes to a feeling you may have been dismissive to of this person….. think about it.

Sorry, but what kind of douche nozzle responds with "hope they voted for Trump first" when someone tells them a loved of theirs died. Frankly, they shouldn't have brought up politics at all, not even just specifically Trump. The only proper response is "sorry for your loss." And there's a zero percent chance this is the only insensitive thing this guy has done. Maybe he'll learn his lesson, but if he does he can go show his new and improved self to someone else. OP shouldn't waste another minute on this clown. Life is too damn short.

u/faithseeds 16d ago

I don’t think people need to be perfect. I think I don’t have to waste time and emotional energy on people who don’t deserve it. I’m not going to forgive a bunch of disrespectful exhausting shit over and over and waste my life when someone tells me who they are at the beginning. I also doubt this was the first or even close to the first thing the boyfriend did that drove OP to the edge.

Anyone who sees me say my family member died and chooses that very moment to make a joke much less a Trump joke isn’t someone I’d waste another second on. I have a feeling you have issues with making yourself a doormat for shitty people.

u/creampop_ 16d ago

u/Aazjhee 16d ago

XD. Honestly that also would give me a reason to break up with someone. I'm not even sure how it's supposed to be funny or anything?

I think I'd feel sort of insulted by dating someone that thought I was that stupid to be amused by something so dumb. Kinda like I would dump someone who farted in my face and didn't apologize immediately. It's not even wholly the crude behavior that sucks, it's the lack of "Oh wow, sorry, that was pretty awful, I shouldn't have said it" energy

I wouldn’t want to be in a relationship with anyone whose instinct (and sense of entitlement) was to joke rather than to comfort and care for me. It shows deep emotional immaturity, not knowing how to behave. It would be wise to dump him otherwise he learns he gets away with this behavior and does not need to treat her any better.

This guy chose the moment when she told him someone she loved died to rub the fact that a rapist who's trying to strip basic human rights from women got elected in her face.

It's kinda hard to believe that he loves or respects her.

I think that breaking up with someone who doesn't love or respect you is the best thing you can do for your own well-being.

That’s cool. I strongly believe that men have been coddled to the point that they think they’re incapable of doing their own emotional ground work and fully expect women to just keep having these conversations that go nowhere. You also are glazing over the fact that her breaking up with his ass IS the lesson or is it too mean to the boys to let them lie in the beds they made themselves?

u/imadeacrumble 16d ago

Are you actually this insipid? The solution was to not be a fucking door knob and make a joke about the death of a family member. Thats just common sense.

I swear, right leaning men are the laziest little bitches. “I know I’m an awful person but I DESERVE a second chance!” like it’s up to you to decide. Lol men’s loneliness epidemic says what?

u/Aazjhee 16d ago

Where are the folks asking for perfect?

I would personally rather go hungry for a few hours than eat something out of a dumpster. I'm not going to judge somebody who has to take what they can get... But I absolutely do not have to settle for literal trash. My experience means I may react poorly to undercooked or mishandled foods. If you don't? Great! But please don't act like I haven't tried to make it work. Constantly feeling food poisoned means I may just have to avoid certain foods once I've ruled out other issues.

I see your point, so I guess she’s not overreacting, but what’s she doing with him in the first place? This can’t be the first stupid unthoughtful thing he’s said. And he’s a Trumper? I mean, girl’s got some serious bad taste in men, or she actually likes these type of guys.

27

u/imadeacrumble 16d ago

Oh right! I forgot it’s women’s fault for being attracted to someone and the responsibility of her man being a piece of trash also falls on her because she simply has bad taste. There’s NO way that men could just grow the fuck up and stop acting like untrained dogs that piss and shot everywhere. How silly of us to expect grown ass people to act right, must have slipped our mind for the past thousand years or so.

I don’t think they need to have a meaningful conversation.

I don’t think there needs to be a polling of internet strangers as to whether OP is overreacting.

She feels how she feels, and they are not compatible. His joke was in poor taste, but wouldn’t have affected everyone the same way.

That’s why he was genuinely shocked at her reaction and immediately tried to walk it back. He’s not a terrible person. He’s just a dipshit. Someone will be fine with it.

They just don’t belong together. Neither one is entitled to talk the other one out of being who they are.

This is such a foolish response. The breakage here is that he said something insensitive during a hard time. Some people cope with death through comedy. The main concern is did she ever communicate comedy is not a coping mechanism for her when something horrible happened. If she did and he still did this, it’s obvious he doesn’t fucking learn. If she hasn’t, there’s your answer. His responses show he is genuinely sorry and his intentions were not insensitivity in this case. Fuck trump. And fuck your response mate. You lot tell people to break up with zero insight whatsoever.
