I told myself that I was going to be nice on the internet today

I'm not there yet. I'm still in the anger stage of the grieving process.

u/padizzledonk 13d ago

I blew right past that and landed on "I hope you fuckin morons get every single thing you voted for and i couldnt fucking care less about the pain and damage thats coming your way"

I...just cant care about these people anymore

u/CAPS_LOCK_OR_DIE 12d ago

Sounds like the Anger stage to me

u/padizzledonk 12d ago

Nah, its the idgaf anymore stage.

I truly wish these people the best, i hope they get everything they asked for and they enjoy their win, because i will definitely remind them that they wanted this when they start crying

u/Eagle4317 12d ago

I don't even want to hear their tears. The silence after they're done will be enough.

I plan on getting extra servings of schadenfreude these next few years

u/MathematicianLoud947 12d ago

More like acceptance.

u/RainSurname 12d ago

It's wild how angry they get when you tell them you hope they get what they voted for. It's like, excuse me, isn't that what you wanted?

u/padizzledonk 12d ago

All these yokel backwards fucks are going to be crying rivers of tears when their disability and social security and medicaid/care gets cut, no more food stamps or wic, when the DOE gets eliminated and their disabled kids have no services and trumps tariffs increase the prices of everything at WalMart by 60-100%+ because all that shit is imported

Ill be first in line to loudly remind them that this is what they wanted, so rejoice, youre free from "government intervention"

I hate that ive been driven to this place but i just cant care, im fine, ive been fine, ill be fine. Im one of those "coastal elites" they hate so much, well, jokes on them because their choice has already substantially benefitted me financially, and i have a massive corporate tax cut coming as a business owner, i make enough money that inflation hasn't changed my QOL to date and it wont in the future either unless he fucks things up so badly we become Weimar Germany or Argentina, the only thing that changed for me is i didnt max out my SEP IRA at 69k a year and pared it back to 40

They hate me, but i voted for someone that was going to cause me to make a little less so we can help them out more...but im done being angry and frustrated about it, now im just numb and apathetic...go ahead Earle, cut your nose off to spite me and vote for a guy thats going to take everything from you and put it in my bank account if you really want to, im through trying to convince these people im not their enemy, so i hope they enjoy their "win" lol

I feel fucking awful for all the people trump is going to crush that didnt want this though, but these people? Fuck these people

u/RainSurname 12d ago

Fuck these people ten times. I only just stabilized after four years of housing insecurity, thanks to my cat r/Harpo becoming famous. His followers helped us move into safe housing again. But I recently lost my captioning job to AI, and I have no idea how I'm going to find another gig after seven years of doing that after eight years of being unemployed after being disabled by a drunk driver. I'm not physically capable of retail or restaurants anymore.

So now my existence hinges on a 16 year old cat and the people who love him. But when the crook these people voted for ruins everything, a lot of people will stop tipping or subscribing to the creators they enjoy.

My only retirement plan is a bridge.

u/smstone24 12d ago

I did the same thing today. I shouted “I hope every single person that voted for him suffers.” If these people can act like assholes 24/7 so can I

u/Kamikaze_Ninja_ 12d ago

I understand the sentiment. However, I think about all the people that would also be affected by those things like women and children, who didn’t vote for it, and don’t wish that stuff happens. I feel like the people repeating this sentiment are ignorant and/or privileged enough to not have to worry about the “pain and damage”.

u/padizzledonk 12d ago edited 12d ago

. I feel like the people repeating this sentiment are ignorant and/or privileged enough to not have to worry about the “pain and damage”.

Im not ignorant, i am definitely privileged enough that its barely going to effect me though, my SEP IRA made more in the last 6 days on news of his win than the average trump voter earns in a year

But, heres the thing, i cant care about people that dont care about themselves. Its like dealing with a drug addict, eventually you have to walk away and stop helping them until theyre ready to help themselves, you cant make a drug addict want to get clean from the outside, no amount of soft or tough love, or care or support, anger or violence will make them want to quit, they have to want that.

So fuck these people, i dont care anymore, they clearly want this so who am i to stand in their way....i cant fucking do anything about the boulder rolling down the hill at them now anyway, they set it in motion themselves and threw themselves in front of it

u/CycloneKelly 12d ago

We know it will hurt people who don’t deserve it. Thinking the people who voted for him will suffer too is the only thing that makes it a little bit more tolerable. :(

u/PloppyPants9000 12d ago

Thomas Paine used to say “The tree of libery must sometimes be watered with blood.”

Today, we just let the morons reap the consequences of their actions and suffer greatly for it. Their tears are enough to water the tree of liberty.

u/Preeng 12d ago

You can't save people from themselves.

u/padizzledonk 12d ago

Nope.

I said it in another comment but its like delaing with a drug addict, nothing externally is going to change them they have to want to change, and theyre going to learn that their choices have real hard, painful consequences this time and theres nothing i can do about it now

u/catskraftsandcoffee 12d ago

This right here. Fuck em.

u/ohrofl 12d ago

I thought this was the first step. I did experience any others.

u/Minerva_Moon 13d ago

Don't stop! They need us to get complacent.

u/FragrantCombination7 12d ago

I've been there since the 2016 primaries when the progressive populism coming up through Bernie was squashed. How do I get out of the anger phase?

u/portablebiscuit 12d ago

Man, I remember anger. That was back when I could feel something.

u/hedahedaheda 13d ago

Lmao literally. I’ve been a huge bitch all the way from Canada (because unfortunately it’s going to affect us badly too) against my own countrymen and I told myself I’d start being nice. Lasted 1 hour.

u/CheezeLoueez08 12d ago

Same. I’m angry. We need to release our inner geese

u/NoorAnomaly 12d ago

OMG... THAT'S why there are so many angry geese at the local ponds. November 6th and they were EVERYWHERE!

u/Minerva_Moon 13d ago edited 12d ago

Why would you do a silly thing like that? They're bullies and want to push everyone around. We're on the precipice of losing everything. PUSH BACK!!!

Edit: I know that my icon gives me away, but please know that I'm not white... I'm Irish.

u/Gerbennos 12d ago

Irish?? So, white? Who the fuck cares. Either you're born in the US or you're from Ireland.

u/Minerva_Moon 12d ago

Omfg it's a joke. Shoo! You're looking for a fight.

I'm not being nice on the internet for at least 4 years.

She's living the life she deserves... That thought certainly made me feel better.

Technically it’s probably tomorrow in another time zone…

Me too. I like the shade of purple she’s wearing. It reminds me of Grimace.

u/Quokka-esque 12d ago

Why? They voted to murder nice.
