Kamala Harris supporters on Reddit are crashing out after Donald Trump won the election. Here are some of the most insane moments from the left-leaning website.

Redditors Panic

Redditors state they were seriously on the verge of tears. Meanwhile, TikTok is flooded with videos of people openly crying about the election results. There’s this intense disbelief on social media platforms that Harris lost, and the comments range from wracked nerves to “Who the f*ck is voting for that man?"  71,957,652 Americans, that's who.

The meltdowns have gotten so bad that r/SuicideWatch saw posts from users saying they feel pushed to the edge. One person said they wouldn't be around to see what’s coming with Trump back in office. Others want to off themselves. But on a very serious note, if this is you, please call the 988 hotline to get emotional support.

A Redditor thought it was a great idea to compare the election outcome to the Holocaust. Tone-deaf, much? The comment is a slap in the face to the Jewish community. I get that they're spiraling because the media gave off the illusion that Harris would secure the win, but this level of insensitivity? Just… no.

Redditors Turn Racist 

Latino voters took everyone by surprise this election, giving Trump a serious boost that might have been unthinkable a few years back. Many Latinos leaned right this election, enough to help Trump clinch the win over Kamala Harris. Their massive support and patriotism were some of the key factors that swung things his way.

Analysts saw this coming for a while: Latino loyalty to the Democratic Party has been slipping. Many Latinos are feeling the weight of inflation, high healthcare costs, and insane housing prices, so they’re not exactly comforted by vague talks of 'democracy' or reproductive rights – especially after the past four years of the Biden-Harris administration’s failures. The Democratic message feels too abstract compared to the Republican focus on real-life economic issues.

This prompted Redditors to go full-on Racist. The so-called progressives wrote, "Latinos f*cking disgust me," and "f*ck Latino men." A Redditor called Latinos "f*cking idiots," and they "don't give a f*ck once they get their documents."

Unfortunately, the Latino hate spread to X/Twitter.

Redditors Release Anger on Trump Supporters

Reddit’s favorite word is the f-bomb. @Gchildress63 had a very lovely message to Trump supporters, saying, "F*ck off all the way to the edge of the planet and f*ck off even more when you get to the edge of the solar system, keep f*cking off when you get to the end of the Milky Way, continue to f*ck off until the end of time." 

r/BoomersBeingFools are blaming the election results on boomers, even though an overwhelming amount of young people voted.

“We Lost.”

Reddit right now is basically a sea of posts that read, “We lost,” across subreddits like r/facepalm, r/GenXWomen, r/Childfree, and r/WhitePeopleTwitter. No matter where you look, Redditors are feeling defeated.

Meanwhile, a different post on Reddit caught my eye. It was from a Harris supporter on r/OptimistsUnite, attempting to cut through the noise with a little perspective. I hope liberals read it, take it to heart, and just breathe a little. They wrote, “Look, I voted for Harris. But this is democracy (however flawed it is), and we just need to accept the results. He won both the popular and electoral votes. The world keeps on spinning, and we still have our close ones and family with us.”

It's going to be great! Here are President Donald Trump's plans for America as he takes office again.
