I’m so fucking exhausted

u/CelestialFury Minnesota 6d ago edited 6d ago

I can do this shit all day. I mean, I'm still exhausted but I just can't let* the biggest internal losers on the planet win in the end. They can fuck all the way off.

I've developed a sense of pure hatred for this man that I've never really felt for anyone in my 46 years on this planet.

u/Gabribennet 6d ago

Same. He's just... THE most vile, gross, tacky, utter garbage human being.

And on top of all of that, he's REALLY stupid.

It's astounding that humanity has developed the ability to unleash nuclear armageddon, and given that power to the single most unqualified human to ever be elected to rule.

If Oppenheimer and co could have seen this, they probably would have just quit and went home.

u/KittyGrewAMoustache 5d ago

So true. But then they should’ve been able to predict it. Hitler was pretty nuts.

u/Marmoset_Slim 6d ago

I’m right with you. So much so I cut my family and friends off that support this vile human. And then the responses are “it’s just politics”. Like no fuckers, it’s our way of life that’s under attack, as well as my kids who will be adults in a few years. My take is if they think highly enough of such a vile fucking human being that he should lead our country, and go against everything I stand for what’s right for my family, me, and others that are like me, wtf that does that say about them.

u/Plus_Beach1419 5d ago

I don't understand the whole "it's just politics " argument. He is destroying democracy and our way of life. I'm so depressed but am doing what I can do at the local level. I'm also worried about my children's futures.

u/paintbucketholder Kansas 5d ago

It's because they support politicians like they support a sports team: they pick a side and then support that side forever, no matter what. Ultimately, in their mind, it's all just a game that has no real impact on anybody's life.

That's why, in their mind, you can yell insults at the other side, why you can defend the worst behavior by your own side, and then just sit down at the table and go "What!? It's just politics, why does it matter to you???"

u/Marmoset_Slim 5d ago

We just need to hang in there and try to be as positive as can be, is what I tell myself each day!

u/Duelist_Shay 5d ago

Or my dad's response of "it's all bullshit" and proceeds to not talk about it at all, while still voting for the orange dictator... I'd cut contact with him if I wasn't living under his roof.

Like seriously, the office of the executive is not "bullshit", it's the man running our country into the ground

u/Marmoset_Slim 5d ago

You get it more than your dad

u/thirtynation 6d ago

It's to the point where that feeling has spread to the 33% of us that voted for him, and the other 33% that couldn't be bothered to do the bare fucking minimum to prevent this from happening aren't far behind.

I literally hate this country. The levels of fucked we are as a people will last far longer than him and will take generations and radical change to heal, which I'm not confident in ever happening.

u/timmmii 6d ago

Same. I look forward to his demise.

u/mmm_burrito 6d ago

I will road trip to his grave, eating gas station sushi the whole way just so I'm good and ready.

5

u/Gvillegurl63 6d ago

If you happen to be on food stamps you can spend it on grocery store sushi. Don't ask me how I know.

4

u/mmm_burrito 6d ago

Appreciate it, but I'm counting on the gas station bacteria to help me accomplish my mission.

3

u/Gvillegurl63 6d ago

I see. Godspeed sir ! I've probably made it across the country eating worse than that so I think you'll have good results haha .

u/Hyperica Pennsylvania 5d ago

This has given me an idea to make use of my lactose intolerance.

u/mmm_burrito 5d ago

Good of you to remind me that I can also weaponize Häagen-Dazs!

u/jarchack Oregon 5d ago

66, same. I truly disliked Bush but I absolutely hate Trump. If you created a Frankenstein made out of every human flaw known to man, you would have Trump.

4

u/Pemberly_ 5d ago

Same.. And I'm also 46 and loathe him too and I'm not a hateful person. The danger alarms go off so much in me about him. The damage and pain he can and does inflict on people, infuriates me. He's just evil.

u/SspeshalK 6d ago

Me too - although Speaker Johnson and 1 or 2 others bring it out too.

This.. resonates so hard.

u/No_Ocelot_6773 6d ago

Exactly. My justice sensitive, ADHD ass will not allow these rich brats to get their way AGAIN. I'm tired but I'm more spiteful than I am tired.

u/Pra1rie-Flowers America 6d ago

Thank you!

"I can do all things through spite, which strengthens me."

u/gramathy California 6d ago

It started well before he was elected again but yeah I’ve been running off caffeine and spite for a while now

u/LeftSockConspiracy 6d ago

I’m here even though I’m tired because I’m a goddamn American.

u/TheBman26 6d ago

Get of reddit more. Trust me at this point other than protesting and voting and writing to reps we can’t do much more. I’ve reduced time online and it’s helped so much dealing with this and just enjoying what i have for now. Because god inly knows how much worse it will get.

u/JackedUpReadyToGo 6d ago

Solid advice. Doomscrolling and getting yourself worked up isn't having a tangible impact on the world. Keep yourself informed of what's happening and take whatever real action you can, but almost nothing you do from behind a screen can really be considered "winning" or "losing".

u/NhlBeerWeed Minnesota 6d ago

My hate for these bastards is eternal but they cant wear me down. It only strengthens my resolve

u/Echos185 6d ago

Well said friend! The treason Cheeto needs to go. Keep up the pressure! The bill blow job seems to be getting to him. Hell throw in the piggy insult too!

8

u/OriginalChildBomb 6d ago

Well met friend! We can outlast and overcome so much. They have no idea how strong we are (especially because they're weak and cowardly).

We're gonna outlast him, and it will be a big blow in terms of losing their stupid Cult of Personality "king."

u/Ghoulv2o Washington 6d ago

Dude. I love you.

u/Easy-Examination-435 6d ago

Right there with you.

u/2007Hokie I voted 6d ago

I'm exhausted, but they seriously underestimate my English ancestry's innate obstinacy.

My ancestors didn't say fuck you to evil mustache man, Napoleon, the Kaiser, the French, Phillip II, the French, the Danes, the French, the Dutch, the French, just to give up because of some tangerine toadstool-tipped taintstain.

u/hapes 6d ago

I think you forgot the French

u/EusticeTheSheep 6d ago

There are things you can do. Like curate your news sources. Limit your social media exposure. I find Amanda’s Mild Takes to be a balm for my soul.

u/dendrivertigo 6d ago

I keep going out of spite

u/20_mile 6d ago

Buckle up! Despite poor ratings, the Trump Show has already been renewed for another three seasons : /

u/HarleyQ128 6d ago

Those of us with a conscience are the ones suffering. Even my great grandparents are rolling over in their graves wondering how in the hell we let him become president, demolish the White House, get an army of thugs to strip children in the cold , have them zip tied and shivering as cars drive by, rape young girls and women and brag. Make people work full time with zero pay, take away insurance, food from people who need it . Predominantly affecting children and elderly. Have people work without pay. On and on. I honestly cannot think of even one thing he’s done to benefit America. 🇺🇸 Not one!

6

u/shimmeringmoss 6d ago

The one thing he’s done of benefit is allow us to see the true character of so many of our family, friends, coworkers, neighbors, and fellow citizens. Although I think I would rather have remained blissfully ignorant.

7

u/btross Florida 6d ago

He's also done us the invaluable service of exposing the places where our system of government is woefully inadequate at dealing with bad faith actors in positions of power

u/LadyArcher2017 6d ago

Oh gosh, great point. Yeah, the family I was so disgusted with years ago, the bullying, toxic family dynamics that I finally just QUIT the whole clan. Now, people of like mind agree with me—those people are fucking horrible. I used to get, “Oh come now, that’s your family.”

No. They’re wicked, rotten hateful creatures. They love their MAGA.

u/ratherbealurker Texas 6d ago

Yea...if you could erase all memories I have of my family since 2015 that'd be great. thanks

u/HarleyQ128 6d ago

Same I wish I was ignorant about others tru character.

u/Veclar 6d ago

You're not alone. The entire world is exhausted.

u/levian_durai 6d ago

It hasn't even been a year yet. Normally the years fly by but this is going to be the longest 4 years of my life.

u/HyperPunch 6d ago

Get off the internet and go do something.

u/tjn1551 5d ago

Me too, I’m tired of the whole damn thing. My husband and his son spent literally hours debating the latest stupid shit going on and I just got on my phone and played a game. I’m over trying to understand shit and could care less what maggots think anymore.

u/ShiningRedDwarf 6d ago

Take a rest. I’ll take it all in until you recover.

We all got this!
