QuoteHonestly if Trump loses my outlook for the future is extremely grim.

My initial analysis is we need more data(not polls)
QuoteAnd Defund the police was a massive fucking loserYou and I already knew that :P
And Defund the police was a massive fucking loser
All the claims of GAF being far right is just BS, I'd hazard a guess most are just apathetic in general and just like the lulz Trump provided. So it was never going to be a high or low 'feels' fest. If Trump did go onto win I think most just view it as a punch in the arm for the woke crowd. If Biden wins, I'm guessing this is pretty much the meme[IMG width="472px"]https://i.imgflip.com/43iv8l.jpg[/img]
If Trump loses, this is the last time Republicans get to have a president, right? It would mean Biden, the literal walking corpse, without any clear agenda or public support, just won solely thanks to the media and tech giants (and probably voter fraud). Next time Republicans won't have a candidate that can speak through the censorship like Trump did and they'll have 0% chance. I hope Trump fights in courts to the very end.
I know it's completely unrelated but with the election going on I was just looking some stuff up and Hilary Clinton is Bill Clintons Wife? This whole time I just assumed she was his daughter. Good lord, she doesn't look in her 70's.
Is it time to talk about the bubble (again)?
Yet, despite EVERYTHING Trump has done he would've cake walked to victory if not for COVID-19. And hell, he still might win by the end of the day. What's worse, the putrid fuck actually made gains with every non-white voting bloc. So, is it time to burst the bubble and look inward again at some hard facts? Facts like this country is FAR more conservative (and racist) than you'd like to think.
Or do we need to double down?

Okay, I'm not sure whether or not this type of post is allowed here but this thread last night was a fucking travesty and a good deal of you need to come down to earth.At 7PM you guys saw florida being florida and decided to flip your shit into late in the nighy over it. Like, the sheer lack of concern some of you seem to have for lurkers with mental health issues is insane. All the "this is 2016!" takes, the lashing out, the thinly veiled racism against latino voters, this thread made the average Lovecraft story look like an upbeat romp.I was switching between this thread and the odd smattering of discord servers I follow and the severe difference in stress I had between these is insane. I sincerely think that going forward that official election threads here shouldn't be open to replies till 11pm est. A think a lot of you owe an apology to anyone who read this and nearly broke down last night.
I'm black and I honestly can't understand why the black vote swung to Trump compared to 2016. The Latino vote is a lot more understandable, but the black vote?

Really sucks that people are using the potential reelection of a Nazi to shit on a whole bunch of people on Era with the "I told you so" stuff
We should stop thinking about 2024. Just need to get rid of Trump. That's all I care about. Even if it swings back to a republican in 2024, I doubt they'll be as bad as him.

I’m genuinely curious as to why RedMercury is trying so hard to handwave away all the criticism that’s been levied towards the way Era has been operating with regards to dissent. I flippantly want to anticipate his response as being “because the forum isn’t an echo chamber.” But as we’ve seen time and time again, it actually is. And it has a dire effect on people either within or adjacent to that bubble. It sets unrealistic expectations and builds false hope at a time when everyone’s mental health is being challenged. Why defend this stuff regardless of how much you like this forum?
Fraud is one of those things that you don’t prove, you have to disprove. It’s a “prove it’s not fraud” thing. That’s just the way it’s always been and always will be. Not saying it’s bad or good, but it is what it is.
this was mean.
Huelen you're a big fuckin idiot and I hope you cry a lot. (blame space was too afraid to say this but we all know it)

Quote from: PlumI've honestly started having some really dark thoughts today that I haven't had in a long while. And, frankly, I think they're justified.Like I don't think Era really appreciates how damaging it is to not have a single year of your adult life without Brexit and Trump. To not have a single 'rock' to live for because you don't have a single part of adulthood accounted for. To work a dead-end job with a bunch of kids after 3 years of doing a degree you probably shouldn't have done anyway, and to have to be fucking grateful for it because millions are doing so much worse. To have to wonder if one of the two people you actually love in this world might die choking and scared in a crowded hospital bed because of a virus. To not even be able to go watch your pretentious art films in the arthouse cinema because that might kill people and they'll be closing soon anyway. To have your fucking closest family members betray you in the worst ways possible over the most petty fucking bullshit imaginable, and to have the one friend you actually have start sucking off Trump out of nowhere. To have fucking millenials with jobs and apartments and partners posting meaningless goddamn platitudes of 'it'll be OK' as if they are in anywhere near the same position. To not even realise a fundamental part of your identity until your most social period of your life is far behind you because your sexuality (or lack thereof) is more obscure than most fucking memes. Then, on top of all that, to have climate change and complete societal collapse staring you in the face like a tiger waiting to pounce on its prey, making any efforts to actually obtain anything good as pointless as retirement. Oh, and to have people say that it isn't so bad as if we aren't hurtling towards a Blue Ocean Event and the eradication of the Amazon before the fucking Playstation 6 is out.That kind of shit can't be fixed with a "STFU with the doomposting!" or any condescending bullshit like that. It just can't. Sometimes you need to see actual results before you can believe in anything. Because, frankly, asking me to believe in hope or any good in this world is like asking me to believe in Santa Claus again. It's not going to happen. It's gone. For good. Fucking good bye, hope.I'm done. I can't rely on anything but myself anymore because everything I love is going to die or betray and everything I hope to be good will turn out bad. It's fucking over and literally nothing anyone can say is going to convince me otherwise. This goes beyond just mental health because no amount of pills shoved into my mouth is going to change the actual reality of the situation.We're fucked. It's fucked. It's over. And I'm fucking done.

QuoteAlso stop listening to Michael Moore. He's the walking embodiment of left wing "truthiness". He doesn't work on facts, he works on what he feels. A good example of this is his frequent appearances on Bill Maher's show. Maher is an overt islamophobe who has made enough "jokes" at the expense of the black and LGBTQ communities in even the recent past for the question on if he's a bigot to be put well to rest, he clearly is. Yet Moore chooses to peddle his own personal views on there with regularity while claiming to be part of a progressive left movement.

And it doesn't make any fucking sense if we were to go by "Latino and black vote collapsed for Biden" analysis. The only thing that possibly happened is White Women overwhelmingly lied in polls and voted for Collins.
I really wish I could forget Huelen's thread about how they wanted feet like a megaman robot. Unfortunately it has been seared into my brain and I still remember it years later despite only reading that thread once. The internet has ruined a whole generation of young people

I'd like to preface this and say that I'm a white person myself.
Even some of the most Left-leaning white people I know will don't believe racial disclination is as bad as it is nor do they believe the police are anything but an occupying force and a cudgel to beat communities of color into submission.
This is war. Hopefully people will recognize that before it's too late but we're getting pretty fuckin close to the point of no return. We either start viewing our opposition as they view us, as enemies, and start taking actual steps toward defending ourselves, just like they're doing, or we'll see horrific, unfathomable things we're unable to do anything about.White people are THE driving force. I'm white and anytime I come across another white person in public I immediately assume they're my enemy that would like nothing more than to crush the life out of my mixed children while I watch helplessly. I have to hold that view because all the historical evidence we have showing my suspicions accurate demands it.Once they're in the voting booth all bets are off, regardless of whatever woke trash they sold you on right before entering.
Don't know about anyone else, but I'm getting some nice catharsis out of BOTH the right-wing chuds having meltdowns and Era realizing they're a bubble with no self-awareness.
I see it daily at work. White Women and Men. Really big fuck-you-got-mine energy. This is in NJ too. It's gross. People don't give a single fuck about anyone but themselves.

And yet, the hostility that police officers hold to the public is alien to them? It’s the same goddamn concept.
