I get that and I totally agree, but I don’t understand the food of comments here arguing that there won’t be reduced turnout in the middle of a Wednesday vs on a weekend. Most people with a full time job can’t just up and leave in the middle of a weekday with less than a week of notice, especially in large states with capitals that are far away. Turnout would be much better if it was on a weekend, and anybody denying that doesn’t live in reality.

No no, it’ll be a huge turnout and if you don’t agree then you’re an idiot for thinking that any significant amount of the population works 9-5 M-F. Just look at these comments! We can’t fail, we posted, “So when is the general strike and protest?” 78 times yesterday on every even vaguely political post, so turnout will be great in the middle of the day on Wednesday. Trust fam. /s

And in the case of the EU you probably aren’t getting in unless you’re highly credentialed. For all their shit talking they sure hate large-scale immigration.

Noooooo this was a uniquely American phenomenon. We definitely didn’t fare better than comparable countries, and conservatives definitely aren’t forgetting that other countries exist… again.
