And took old anti gay marriage OUT of the constitution

didn't they also spearhead decriminalization of weed?

This but slightly unironically, I have at least a tiny bit of hope that colorado would fight for its citizens

I agree, I just find it blatantly obvious that Republicans have been lying about the "states rights" arguments and will flip the script and impose their federal bans if given the chance.

So did Arizona. But Project 2025 plans to just ban it federally anyway. So it won't mean shit in the end.

Weed is illegal federally but that didn't stop states from allowing dispensaries. Maybe it's different in some way but I'm not sure how it would be.

The federal government, DEA, etc. said they wouldn't pursue cases in states that legalized it.

They 100% could if they wanted to. And there's no reason to believe that a new Trump admin would follow through on any promises like that going forwards, if they even made any.

I see. Well I bet acting on either of those things against the laws and wishes of the state would be at least massively unpopular, whatever that counts for anymore.

Wisconsin Michigan and Pennsylvania all voted red honey

And VA did not. This map is pretty bad.

Wisconsin didn't vote for Drumph according to the last results. Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Virginia are all wrong on this map.

Virginia voted for Harris. Michigan and Pennsylvania didn't.

Edit: Maryland also seems to be misrepresented, as they, unsurprisingly, voted for Harris.

Colorado and New Mexico are also unfairly lumped in with the red states on this map.

Edit 2: I find the AP map suspect. Not once since Nixon has the country voted this firmly conservative. I smell foul play with electronic voting machines, especially the ones that don't provide a paper receipt. Especially since they openly said they were going to hack the voting machines, and Diebold, a company owned by Dick Cheney, makes those voting machines.

Edit 3: Arm yourselves comrades. Crossbows make less noise firing the bolt than hitting your target that is illegally breaking and entering your domicile.

Cops are nothing more than thugs with badges that allow them to kill with impunity. Harlow v Fitzgerald was decided based on slaver lies, not the actual law.

The law won't save you now.

Create your local communities, but be careful to ostracize the conservative and neo liberal traitors that will turn you in and destroy your community.

Student visa. Going to university is cheap/free in many European countries. You can work to support yourself while you get a degree. You might also qualify for welfare programs once you’re here for a while.

Colorado had nothing to do with this. Harris won by well over 10% here. New Mexico too. Get us out of here, please!

Dividing things by states makes no sense, the only reason it looks like that is because of how the elections work. There is blue and red in every state.

No you lost.

A Harris victory would of only been for a few. A Trump victory is for everyone.

After 4 years of not saying this to trump you say it to Dems 2 days after the election.

You are so full of shit you've become it.

Michigan, Wisconsin and Pensylvania voted dumbfuck though? I mean that's the whole problem here isn't it. A pretty well know fact you could say?

If the Americas wish to leave the Union and become Canadian territories then they do sort of connect

Fuck yes! We're taking some Canada with us, too!

Aw fuck it, California you come too

Sadly America is Dumbfuckistan, and the blue is just in their own little bubble. We really need to realize what we did wrong, and that Harris was not a top pick for liberals, but DNC just wanted to shove her down our throats

Tbh its Biden's fault, not Harris.

But she should have thrown him under the bus and moved left.

It's mainly the DNC's fault for pushing Hilary over Sanders in 2016. And the voters' fault too for listening to them.

In Neal Stephenson's Fall, he describes the area of Ameristan where religious fundamentalists have taken over, and all crucify people for things like polyester/cotton blends or being gay.

So yeah, anyway, if you want a lens into the future...

you've combined those midwest states like the british used to draw country boarders to keep groups fighting eachother. i have concerns.

Yeah, come on. Don't group Minnesota with Wisconsin. As a Minnesotan, I find that disrespectful. Haha

The entire country are dumb fucks. I've never met a knife divisive, fascist, racist and hateful bunch of Democrats than I did this election. You guys all became so damn toxic. The leftists fighting leftists about who is more left, while the fascist walk right through

It's always been this way. This is why talking about policy will always lose to narrativization when populism is in full swing.

It's almost like the Dems we're trying to lose this election.

There is a saying...

Make a mistake once and you can call it learning, make a mistake twice and you are eh... not so smart

I'm pretty sure our next election is going entirely conservative. It's a state of affairs.
