    It was actually so nice. I walked into work and nobody was talking politics because it didn’t feel like the world was ending.

    For any conservatives, I’m sorry. I work and am highly involved with vulnerable people, and I vote to protect them as best I can. A vote for PP would not have been a vote to protect the most vulnerable I know, which in my eyes is what a society is meant to do.

        I appreciate that, but I also want to avoid tribalism in relation to politics whenever I can. It’s not about teams or colours in my eyes.

          You realize conservatives generally vote based on hatred and/or greed, right?

          You know human groups are not made of monolithic homogeneous personalities, right? Oe should we say *all Americans" are faciats because Trump is their president and do nothing about it?

      Same. I also work with vulnerable people and a vote for PP is a vote for many of my peeps at work to be tazered in a jail bathroom for something they cannot afford to medicate (such as it is in “healthcare is a big business” USA).
