thadthrasher 1,692 Posted November 7, 2020 Author Share Posted November 7, 2020 I'm sure most of you are aware of this already, but man tensions are high. All of my democrat friends are elated on Facebook. Most of their posts are centered around how the republicans acted four years ago, and saying things such as "if only you flew more Trump flags from your truck." There is an increased amount of teasing and saying "trust the process, it works." My republican friends seem to be focusing on "election fraud" because "votes keep magically coming in." They seem to have forgotten that there are mail-in ballots and that when Trump said that they shouldn't vote by mail, practically no republican did. So, of course the incoming mail-in ballots are Biden. These republican friends are also sharing things such as "It's November 2020, gas prices are $2.18/gallon..." and so on. With that they are sharing memes that say things like "The democrats who cried 4 years ago about collusion are now saying 'trust the system.'" Really, this happens every time the presidency changes parties. The winning side "trusts the process" while the losing side cries corruption. Accusations fly, lies are told, and balance is, well, unbalanced. Crazy process.

Do these people not remember paying $4+ a gallon during the Dubya years? smh It's two different realities at this point, but it is worth noting that one side has had practically every tweet flagged for misinformation and the other side had had none, at least that I'm aware of.

But it was actually a close vote. People aren't going to sit idly by if scotus tries to reverse this decision.
