Look, this is them making an effort. Let’s pat them on the back. They did well. There is still a lot of work to do, but today, let’s just celebrate progress.
LORD KNOWS how much shit we give them, always, and always will, but let’s be happy for our brothers and sisters that democracy prevailed one more election.
A threat to democracy anywhere is a threat to democracy everywhere. Likewise, a victory for democracy anywhere is a victory for democracy everywhere. Tonight, democracy won.
Wooo! USA! USA! USA!
Yeah, it is a small victory, and I’m glad. I am basically just quoting Mamdani from last night - now is not the time to rest.
And he is absolutely GOD damned right. Strike while the iron is hot, this is exactly the time to go bustin caps in asses. But tonight… We celebrate and be merry. We have all gone through a lot over the past decade. We earned this.
