2024 Presidential Election - Blog Posts
if you don’t remember anything else for the next 4 years, remember this: don’t be a fucking snitch.
Ocean O'Connell Rosenburg from Ride the Cyclone! Yes that is Shigaraki in the corner (how could you mention fathers and heros in the same sentence, around HIM 🫵🫵) and yes this is what inspired the question about the president elections I posted a few days ago.
Okay question for y'all (because my best friend hates me and won't answer 🙄) if Tomura Shigaraki, Ocean O'Connell Rosenburg, and Chappell Roan were the only candidates in the presidential race, who would you vote for? Not who you think would win, but who you would vote for. Also yes these people are connected but I'm not explaining unless you ask because it's silly.
I don't think I should have a vote because I am biased: I love Shigaraki, feel mediocre about Ocean, and dislike Chappell Roan (it's a whole thing that I'm not going to get into, I'm sure she's a sweet woman!)
Shigaraki would probably wreck the justice system OR do great things for it, possibly demolish cops which I mean can't blame him ACAB ✊ he also is not a bigot (Friends with Magne and Toga who are lgbt, Spinner who is oppressed/a minority, people of many races, and mentally ill people, as well as minors in general) he'd also probably do decent things for the fostercare system... Once he's done banning heros that is.
It's been a minute since I've seen ride the cyclone so if I say anything wrong please forgive me. Ocean is a dead teenage girl (already off to a not great start) I believe she is religious but I may be misremembering, I also am pretty sure she did not believe Noel about being gay but I could be misremembering. She also supports democracy.
I dislike Chappell Roan so I feel like I shouldn't list pros or cons for her, anyways- She's lgbtq friendly, however I think she'd get upset with the publicity coming with being the literal president (no hate to her, I get it) I could see it being a Biden situation where people are super excited for her to be president but then hate her when she is. Plus how will she juggle being a pop-singer and president? Concerts in the Whitehouse perhaps?
FYI: I want to like Chappell but I'm struggling to, you are welcome to try to change my mind!
TLDR: All have pros and cons, my vote goes to Shigaraki because I'm biased.

I can 100% see the point this person made. Trump has friends in high places, high places that would benefit if he was elected President again. This could be case that this election was rigged and we are going to have to suffer the consequences.
The Math Ain't Mathing
So I'm sure people are going to accuse me of being a conspiracy theorist, but the more I think about the results of this US election, the more it's clear that things aren't adding up.
Now don't get me wrong. I'm well aware of the US's long history of racism and misogyny, and it is totally possible -- in theory -- that more people voted for a moronic straight, white male who is an ajudicated grapist and convicted felon over a more-than-qualified, intelligent, results-driven woman of color for a position as leader of the wealthiest nation on earth.
I'm not saying that couldn't happen. But did it? Legitimately?
The more I think about Trump's campaign, the more fishy this result seems.
So here was a man with ...
virtually no policies (that he could talk about openly),
no ground game,
no door knocking apparatus to urge folks to get out the vote,
no phone banking,
he was constantly running out of money and had to shill products to raise more,
stole money from down ballot candidates, putting their marketing strategies at risk,
found liable for SA,
found guilty of millions of dollars in fraud,
constantly rambles and shows clear signs of being mentally unwell,
invokes violent and hateful language against specific communities as well as individuals,
bragged about being a dictator on Day 1,
had over 40 former cabinet members declare him unfit for office,
was called a fascist by his own former chief of staff,
was not endorsed by any reputable economists,
saw a flood of lifelong Republicans -- literally millions of them -- abandon their party to vote for his opponent,
has been impeached twice,
has seen sharply, dwindling crowd sizes at his rallies for the last 6 weeks,
... and somehow he won the popular vote by 5 million?
Even though he never won the popular vote in 2016? Or 2020?
Suddenly he "found" a bunch of votes from people who liked him?
Um, no.
Just no.
One of Trump's biggest failings is that he and his team tell lies like children. That is, they've never learned how to keep things believable. Like a misguided 10-year-old who is desperate to impress someone with his whopper of a tale, he always exaggerates to the point of hyperbole and insults our intelligence.
For example, he told us his rally at Wildwood, NJ this past summer had 108,000 even though the town itself only has 80,000 residents and the venue he held the rally in only held 20,000 people.
Or how he kept insisting that American kids are going to school and somehow receiving gender reassignment surgery over a couple of days and without parental consent before being sent home.
Each lie is so over the top and grandiose it makes him look infantile while at the same time insults our knowledge of reality.
And that's exactly what this feels like.
There is no way this man won the majority of the votes and the popular vote after only winning due to the electoral college the first time and not at all the second time. More people vilify him now than they did in 2016 and 2020, and that's saying something.
There just aren't enough voters in the US to give him a clear path to victory here no matter how committed his sycophants are to white supremacy. MAGA voters are not the majority of the voting electorate.
Also the fact that the exit polling data is suspiciously similar to the same tall tales Trump's been selling for the past year about how he had a ton of support in the Latino and Black communities, despite there being no data to support it at all. He was polling damn near 0% in some majority black communities like Detroit and Atlanta.
Yeah ... no.
This math ain't mathing.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but I know when something isn't adding up. And nothing about these results add up at all.
On top of that, they ran their entire campaign like they didn't care about people getting out to vote. They kept insulting different segments of the electorate over and over again, as if they didn't need the votes of single people or people without children.
Plus, we saw record voter registration leading up to the election. More people voting early in state after state, and millions of people voting for the first time in their lives. But somehow there were fewer votes cast in this 2024 election than in the 2020 election?
Hell, Georgia alone tripled its early voter turnout. So how is this election getting fewer votes than 4 years ago?!
There were historically longer lines than ever before in parts of the country that never saw long lines, and yet there were millions fewer votes counted so far this year? Are we really to believe that all those long lines and so many new voters managed to only add up to 136M versus 158M who voted in 2020?
I call bullshit!
Also, a number of folks are commenting on how quickly the states were called. In all my years of voting, I've never seen a US election turning around so fast. Not even Clinton vs Dole in 1996.
Yeah, the math ain't mathing.
Sure, he could've eeked out a win via the Electoral College without the popular vote like he did in 2016, but given her momentum and the majority of the polls either favoring her or having had them tied, none of these results passes the smell test.
Meanwhile, Harris had a multigenerational, multiracial, multiethnic, multigendered coalition of enthusiastic supporters who volunteered, phone banked, door knocked, and fundraised in every state plus D.C. Her media strategy was savvy, her interviews were sharp and intelligible, and her demeanor was inclusive and congenial. Again, not putting anything past good ole American racism and misogyny, but all the data showed that her supporters were clearly larger in number and more enthusiastic than his.
Long story short --
I do believe we are witnessing the American government being hijacked and a dictator installed right before our very eyes.
Trump at the RNC
If are living in America and are wondering what you can do now please consider contacting The White House and demanding a recount / revote!
Check out the ALCU -> The ACLU is an organization that specifically fights back against harmful laws and bills - they fought trump off RAPIDLY during his first presidency and theyre overall good for keeping track of resources and stuff!
Ensure your vote is counted through Vote Curing!
Sign this Petition : Jane Byson (the maker of petition) ;
"We need a recount and revote for the 2024 election. An investigation needs to be looked into after Trumps sudden rise after all favor was pointed towards Kamala Harris. This isn't superstition when there was proof that she was in the lead. Something is wrong and the people of the US shouldn't suffer for it."
For those who are contemplating suicide or self harm consider contacting these Hotlines! Keep Fighting Please, and to those who have more resources PLEASE add on.
if u voted for trump, I mean this in the most disrespectful way possible, I do not want anything to do with you. Not only did you vote against basic human rights and equality, you decided rascism, homophobia, islamophobia, transphobia & misogynistic behavior wasn't a deal breaker. i do not want your follow or support ! thank you.
To all the trans people who see this tonight, no matter what happens, we will survive. Trans people will still be here 4 years from now and 10 years from now and 100 years from now and tomorrow. We have always existed and we always will. The world cannot unlearn about us; we are too public, too loud, too beloved, too present. Ill be here tomorrow. Please stay here with me.
There will always be hope no matter how hard our oppressors try to stomp it out.
With Trump looking on track to win, I just want to give some hope for people right now.
The Senate is Republican, but two years in the future a third of the Senate will be reelected, meaning Trump has at most 2 years to work with an agreeable Senate
Whether or not Trump goes through with project 2025 or not, this will most definitely be our last term with him
If he doesn't do what he promised, his voter base will get mad they didn't get what they voted for
If he does do what he promised, his voter base will get mad when they realise tariffs=higher costs and when their taxes don't decrease
People WILL protest in their states and nationally and either a) Trump listens or b) Trump ignores it and people become more disillusioned with him
There is no way Trump will do something that can't be reversible or managed by the later President
If Trump supporters do become disillusioned, we could see a blue midterm
1/2 of Congress is needed to pass a bill
Just take a breath. It isn't going to be great, but we can and will survive.
Please remember that you aren’t alone. It might seem hard now but if we keep fighting it will eventually get better. If we just give up it encourages Trump. I know it seems hard but we are here for you. There are other people relying on you so please just live.

For some reason this felt relevant 🤷♂️
"you cant catch me now / im higher than the hopes that you brought down... / theres blood on the side of the mountain / its turning a new shade of red / yeah, sometimes the fire you founded / dont burn the way youd expect / yeah, you thought that this was the end"
To everyone out there who is feeling furious or hopeless or confused or betrayed:
You feelings are valid.
It’s so absolutely infuriating that the United States as a country would choose this type of leadership. But I want to remind you to please, please, please keep going. Even though it feels awful and hopeless and confusing. Keep going.
We can and we will get through this together and you are so important to me ❤️
A lil bit of seriousness
No matter who wins the White House this year. Just know that we can’t give up. No matter what happens, there are still so many things about the life we live today that make it worth living. I know yall are scared. To be honest, I’m scared too. Im in a family that are on both sides of the political spectrum and it’s so hard to figure out what’s right and wrong, real and fake. But through everything, I still have the things I love. It’s hard, I get it. But focus on the things that make you happy, anything from beautiful sunsets to your favorite book. And please please PLEASE do not make any rude comments to others about this. It is very unwanted and unappreciated. To the innocent people getting these hateful messages, block them immediately. They only want you to fight back.
It’s not the end
We will get through ✊
Together
