What you are hearing is that Rural America voted (R) because R's did something for them personally and because Rural America cares fuckall about the nation as a whole. Seriously every discussion I have with Republicans I know is all about how something affected them on a personal level(or how something affected their friend/family/dog on a personal level), and that's why they're voting (R). When I bring up "the nation" it's just a bunch of bitching about California and how they don't give two fucks about anyone else's problems.
Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life.
Just, be kind.

Lol at trumpists not understanding that MIV don't show up on electoral maps until they're counted.
Which would be a terrible idea, and validate far too much Republican propaganda that Biden was a trojan horse to get an unelectable Kamala into the office to do bad things and stuff.
The only way Biden can get away with doing that is if he drops dead on live TV or is assassinated by a clear Republican.

One bright spot in all this is that this looks like a really good, clean election. Huge turnout, minimal voter supression, no glaring widespread issues, no violence. This whole civil war narrative needs to die on the spot, America is not tearing itself apart, it is just foriegn governments and assholes that want you to believe that.
Yeah, the election is terrifyingly close, and yes, that isn't going to calm things down, but Americans live in a perpetual state of anger at each other anyway. The point is that anger doesn't translate into violence. At my work, we have plenty of people with their fingers crossed for both sides, but nobody is at each others throats.

Even if Biden hangs on (hoping) misinformation and propaganda won. This country is a lost cause. The next two years will be the republican party doing everything it can to harm the country and then just turn around and blame Biden and the dems for it, and it will work because people are stupid. And if nothing is done about Trump he will run again in 2024.
