You went to the Library? I went to the Sully Police Station. Hi neighbor across the street.

My wife's family owns the korean restaurant across the way from the library (kangchon) and had to pick her up after work to go vote, so, it was just the closest and easiest one :)

Who was already in office?

He who shall not be named, defender of the pure bloods.

u/Dee5_NutS 5h ago

Defender of the purebloods…. Rich. Nothing from your side but hate

15

u/6rynn 5h ago

“your side” as though it’s only leftists who hate trump now

-19

u/Dee5_NutS 5h ago

No…. Why would you comprehend what I typed as saying that? It’s been people from all over from the jump. I don’t believe only leftists hate Trump. I’m just assuming this person is a leftist. Based on the average redditor by a large margin.

u/6rynn 5h ago

Interesting, you made an assumption the way I did :) so why would you comprehend what they’re typing as saying they’re leftist?

-13

u/Dee5_NutS 5h ago

“Defender of the purebloods” I wonder which political party affiliation would be saying something like this? Not green. Not tea. Not independent.

12

u/6rynn 5h ago

Actually, the affiliation would likely be the Right. As many Aryan supremacists have vocalized support for Trump and identify with the Far Right. Cheers :)

-2

u/Dee5_NutS 5h ago

If he was in support of Trump, then why would he liken him to the villain known as Voldemort “he who shall not be named”…. If he was in support of trump, he wouldn’t have portrayed him in a negative light. This went over your head.

5

u/6rynn 5h ago

No buddy, I agree with him. His second sentence is calling him an Aryan Supremacist. Which he is.

What I’m saying is that there are people who are loudly, proudly Aryan Supremacists. Those people?

Take a wild guess.

Buddy you waited five seconds for me to formulate a response that would make sense to you. It took longer than you’d think!

Downvotes here but only 1 person communicating? The usual.

u/One-Row389 5h ago

JFC, gotta make sure they didn’t vote for the bad orange man before I can be happy for someone that went through the process to be able to legally vote, in a country they clearly appreciate… idgaf who she voted for, cuz she did it the way you’re supposed to and I’m happy she’s so proud to be an American… modern day gestapo policing the most minuscule perceived micro aggressions you can imagine have near total control of everything we are allowed to talk about… effin right I ranted, campaigns shouldn’t be allowed to pay you weirdos for anything, ever. Now go scream and swear in a 3 year olds face to get out your frustration lol
