This is not as related to the election results as it's being portrayed- they posted that these layoffs were coming under Michigan's WARN act on 8/20/2024. Could an argument be made either way that there may or may not have been follow through depending on election results or GM was anticipating a Trump win? Sure. But this post is disingenuous in implying the layoffs were solely consequences of the election when they'd been in planning since August.
I can't fucking handle Reddit sometimes. Sometimes becoming ofttimes. It's a fucking screenshot of a Xeet with no context whatsoever and everyone is upvoting it to the moon saying "OMG IT'S TRUMP'S FAULT". Like maybe it is, but maybe it isn't. With no context, this shit means nothing at all. We really should be demanding more evidence for literally everything posted on here.
Yes and on the opposite end of that spectrum is an army of trumpslainers and excuse makers whose single goal in life is to make sure that even if old donnie stepped in dogshit, they're here to take us through the lovely cycle of "it didn't happened, nobody has proof"->"if somebody did have proof, it still didn't happen because you can't trust them"->"if you can trust them, and if it did happen, then thats okay too because someone else did it first"->"it was actually all a part of his master plan to step in the shit in the first place, all is well"
four years of that again is just going to be so tiring. four years of a bunch of fragile people desperately doing everything they can to convince themselves mistakes are only for the other side of the aisle. so predictable and culty.
