The irony here is that you’re calling it “projection” while defending the political movement that spent years claiming a presidential election was stolen, filed dozens of lawsuits that failed, pressured officials to overturn results, and then watched its supporters storm the Capitol over those claims.
As for the meme, you don’t have to think it’s funny. That’s subjective. But the underlying point is pretty straightforward: when Republicans lose elections, a significant portion of the party leadership and media ecosystem often default to claims of fraud, rigging, or stolen elections instead of accepting that voters rejected their candidates.
California’s mayoral race is a perfect example. If Spencer Pratt loses, it’ll be because Los Angeles voters didn’t want Spencer Pratt as mayor. Not because ballots appeared in the night. Not because voting machines switched votes. Not because dead people voted. Just because he lost.
That’s not projection. That’s pattern recognition.
Florida starts processing mail ballots weeks before Election Day and has stricter deadlines for when ballots must arrive. California accepts ballots postmarked by Election Day even if they arrive later, verifies millions of signatures by hand, and has far more vote-by-mail usage.
California also has ~22 million registered voters spread across 58 counties, with some counties larger than entire states. The tradeoff is speed vs. giving more people time and access to vote.
Florida prioritizes fast reporting. California prioritizes maximizing ballot acceptance and verification.

Americans are free to do whatever the fuck they want. It’s that simple.
If you don’t want a large group of people pissed off at you, then don’t say or do things that will piss them off. Or do it. Who gives a fuck? People are free to make bad decisions, the same way everyone else is free to dislike them or organize against them.
Stop treading on our freedom to love or hate. 🖕
