It looks so good!

I canceled my sub when they announced that paid Prime memberships would still have to view ads.

I use it exceedingly rarely now, thankfully, and without a sub you have to wait a week for something to arrive anyway, so I just expect it to be shit service.

I mean, we tried.

Even burned some towns down a few years ago.

Protesting doesn’t work.

If we had a functioning government they’d already be bankrupt or in the hands of a legit oversight authority, rather than allowed to continue to run a blatantly corrupt and dangerous enterprise.

You say “should” like we don’t keep electing all the politicians who don’t give a crap about wages.

You know they’ve probably considered that.

Luckily for us, nonverbal communication is far more effective.

That’s what you get for selling your soul to those glorious, furry, dark goober gods.

Oddly enough, in a way, he’s right.

Democrats’ response to Roe repeal news was to fundraise. They pulled in a cool $80,000,000.

Democrats are never going to codify Roe because it’s just too lucrative an issue. It’s the same reason why Republicans will make sure we always have a so-called border crisis.

It’s pointless because it’s their golden goose. It’s only a states-rights issue because it was never legislated at the federal level, even when the Dems had a supermajority.

The process to amend the constitution is far more complicated than passing a federal law. SCOTUS effectively blocked any federal law in their ruling that said it is a states’ rights issue.

You’re right, Jeff.

It’s just too hard to do. We shouldn’t expect better. How silly of me to think Democrats might do what they promise one day.

You might have noticed. It’s kind of our thing, doing things differently from the rest of the world for no good reason.

Different measuring system

Different cars

Different health care system

Different social ethics

Different system of government

Very few trains

We’re just a bunch of silly dumbasses here.

Most of our people are that way. Our arrogance in this stupid notion of American Exceptionalism holds us back, and too many of us are too stupid to realize it.

Ugh, the Quiverfull Movement.

That’s the beauty of both ruling parties being 100% in support of the prison industrial complex. In fact, our current president even helped usher through the '94 Crime Bill, which keeps prisons nice and full for his golf buddies and institutional donors.

I’d like to believe that. Social Media did a great job of reprogramming people.

Remember, though, that people, opinions, and political landscapes can change.

Yeah, but Biden hasn’t.

Remember when he mocked ‘Defund the Police’ in his first state of the union address?

He’s an authoritarian. Always has been, and he’s been a reliable vote in favor of every regressive piece of legislation that’s led the country to this point, where fascism is becoming normalized.

Just because Trump was more personally belligerent doesn’t change the fact that Biden is an authoritarian.

Going ad hominem just makes you look sillier.

I vote third party.

Choosing between a giant douche and a turd sandwich isn’t very appealing to me.

Also, people like you pretending you didn’t need the votes of people like me is how we got Trump in the first place.

FlashMobOfOne, 6 days ago

Right, because you’re insecure about the fact that you can’t rebut my replies.

The problem with that is we all have to suffer for the insistence of you and yours to elect these people.

FlashMobOfOne, 6 days ago

They don’t hate that fact enough, unfortunately.

FlashMobOfOne, 6 days ago

This excuse, to me, seems to emphasize the necessity of a third-party vote even more.

FlashMobOfOne, 6 days ago

Same.

I just wish I didn’t have to be super-careful about my friendly interactions. So many people mistake simple politeness for romantic interest these days, and no one wants to get tagged as a creep.

Suckwest now sucks slightly less.
