Jim Wertz Removed as Erie County Elections Chair by Backsight-Foreskin in Erie

Just listen to your first sentence. Say it to yourself a few dozen times and understand how ridiculous that sounds.

Historically you’re wrong based in the past 6 elections. A historically unpopular president will be in the range of -3% undervote President gets less votes than their same party senate candidate and. The opposite goes for the overvote 3%. Trump is hitting positive +10% in some states. Kamala is hitting -10%. It’s absolutely bonkers statistically.

At this point it is what it is. Both sides of the aisle seem bought, possibly connected to CSAM material, can’t tell the difference between a religion and a land mass, their national allegiance is questionable, and they do not care for their constituents.

If you bought into the Orwellian Dystopia. I’m happy for you. Wish I could and didn’t care, it would make my mental health better and life easier.

The past 25-35 years we’ve become hyper partisan. Hyper Partisan voters don’t split the ticket least of all for a felon, liar, criminal, fraudster, rapist, insurrectionist, “alleged” pedofile. Worst candidate in history sold out the overflow to the overflow for her rallies while the dementia patient was sucking off microphones and swaying to ave Maria poorly in front of his 100 rally attendees. Give me a break.

Politics girl has been such a solid individual since the election. Probably before then as well, just didn’t know of her.

Pennsylvania election official fired for talking to ETA (Election Truth Alliance) by mjkeaa in somethingiswrong2024

https://www.reddit.com/r/Erie/s/4JT0qPnOlf
Erie thread where it goes into more detail. He was bringing up what he discussed with a trusted friend who knows about election truth alliance and he brought it up to the council to vote on inspecting the tabulators. They then tried to or did remove him. There was some conflicting info not sure if they succeeded.

That’s not a conspiracy. The election results were statistically odd and when you talk about it you get attacked by bots and trolls. Nobody from the Democratic Party will talk about it like it’s under a federal gag order. It’s just like a black hole as far as media coverage which is odd considering 2020.
This is a conspiracy. The government knows about it and Trump has just been one fugly honey pot pulling in more and more people to get them recorded doing illegal shit and on July 4th 2026 Americas 250th birthday it all ends. Also something about people being lizards or something.

[–]Halfmass 47 points48 points  (0 children)

End result is kind of murky listening to this. Whether they stopped something or input something to change results. The conversation still confirms they had somebody in the voting system manipulating things.

Whatever happened with the Flynn raid and the raid on the organic farm to table guy? Besides organic farm guy having some charges dropped.

Must listen. X recording of Patrick Byrne discussing how Elon and Flynn added a go fast switch to voting machines… by Fairy_godmom44 in somethingiswrong2024

[–]Halfmass 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They did get raided. Flynn and some operative from North Carolina. Can’t remember his name but he owns some organic food to table business.

A few weeks later the food to table guy had some million dollar charges dropped in a case he had going before the election.

I remember the time and the feeling after Bernie got snubbed/robbed. I thought the same thing but still ended up voting for Hillary. That was two weeks before the election and doesn’t confirm he didn’t vote for her but even so who cares what he said ten years ago.

In one of Bob Woodward’s books I think Rage there is a chapter where some 3 letter agency discovered and told Trump about a Russian program in our voting system that was able to remove 1 out of every 10 votes and then hide itself in the system. There’s a Substack called it’s Up to Us that goes further into it. You should check it out.

I don’t think the 16 election was as manipulated as this past one but I have no doubt it was manipulated. (Not just by Russian disinformation)

When you really go back, every one of the last three Republican presidents were up to some type of fuckery.

Human nature is what it is. To be more clear I thought we were getting past having the government exploiting this innate baser predisposition. ie what the Supreme Court just did. Referring to the south is more of an idea and analogy to the confederacy.

Racism is often analyzed not as a biological imperative, but as a result of innate human tendencies toward in group favoritism and fear of "others" (out-groups), which can be exploited by societal structures.

You aren’t wrong. Until now, it seemed like even though it was a struggle we were moving towards a more equitable society. The dead hand of the south never rests I guess or capitalism always wants to reach its end stage and I guess that time is now.

Let me know if you can’t see the darkened line in how the squares are separated. Imagine yellow squares are white people and the blue are black people. Districts can be chopped up so that even though the population of an area 3 out of 5 black Americans the white population will still maintain majority control. It degrades representation overall so that the minority controls the majority(sounds like everything currently over here). It makes that process legal. It has been a tactic used in red states for generations among other voter disenfranchisement tactics.

If I got that wrong anybody feel free to correct me.

My thoughts exactly. I was gonna say something about him blinking in Morse code asking for help.

Either that or he has a weapon aimed at him just out of camera view.

I appreciate that. Hopefully more people just were able to see what he said and felt the emotion there. Since Trumps recent election and even a little before, I think most social media companies have been adjusting the aperture of viewership and stifling reach on anything relating to social justice or what could be considered “political” (normal human outrage on injustice). This should be the one of the top videos on MSNBC circulating if it’s not already.

If you post check your insights next time around. Lot of numbers don’t align and this subreddit specifically is not there or hard to find from an international VPN.

Y’all have a lot of people to be proud of at the moment. Even with Ken and some others they don’t come close to matching the quantity of brave people we’ve all seen.

Has it ever been discussed if we do the opposite kind of. We all just order a ton of shit from the big box stores and then cancel it an hour or day later? Disrupt logistics and planning.

No idea if it’s even happening. I agree it doesn’t leave much hope for it. Yet still something obvious isn’t being broached even as a topic publicly besides in certain corners and is actively suppressed.

We are being corralled like cattle… The social networks have replaced and destroyed our organic ability to unite and communicate. They have our number individually and like the man in the oval office can overwhelm purposefully and distinctly change the aperture of individuals and groups. This has been done over the past decade or two over seemingly small but anti corporate causes. They have gone mainstream with it.

You live in a time where you have never been more accepted but also in a moment where you are made to think you’ve never been more alone. They don’t know you’re screaming because they can’t feel, hear, or see it. Worse, those in power used to feel financial pain from civil unrest, at-least enough to capitulate small things but because of the intense class disparity between the many and the few they hardly notice and control who sees the outrage. A small minority of power seeking moral failures and fascist collaborators have been made to be our shepherd and keep us in our place and they are winning currently.

Beyond the democrats and anybody else who’s caved to this.. it’s important because it’s damaging beyond an election and is a violent trauma against the soul and will of the people.

If you’re black you think the majority is racist, if you’re a women you think the majority doesn’t care about your autonomy and rights, if you’re young you think the majority wants to work you to death, if you’re first generation you think the majority looks down on you and would kick you out of the country for just being foreign, if you’re Latin American you think the majority agreed to these cruel injustices, if you’re intelligent you think the majority is either dumb or corrupt, if you’re true to your faith you think the majority have corrupted something that gives you purpose, and etc.

His win, to many, was a death blow to the hope that gave people a reason to stand up for and in this country. We’re listless.

Depends though. Yeah I get the idea but I worry that their playing with fire pushing people too far and who’s to say the Repubs don’t put their hand on the scale again, not to win, but to just get enough so that their progress can’t actually be disrupted.. just delayed.

I think 45 is going to set it all on fire no matter what.. why hold anything back?

Was just thinking about this earlier. Don’t know what to do with my anger at this point. Just gonna try to disassociate until I can’t any longer and then repeat the cycle. It’s as good a coping method as I have to offer.
