I said then, and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it, and while there is a criminal element I am of it, and while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.
Anarchist/libsoc. If we’re stuck with a government, it should use its taxes for healthcare and education, not murdering.
My eggs are more expensive too. So are everyone elses in the world. I just blame Putin for destabilising and the stores for blatant price gouging the second they felt they could.
Exactly this. Harris probably would have overseen the shift of the prices going back down and the “muh economy and inflation” Republicans wouldn’t have had as big of an argument for 2028.
Ukraine winning, Trump dies from health issues/arrested for his crimes (long shot on the last one), and doing her best to secure abortion and queer protections, she would have been great for her second term.
And now we get nothing but the worst of both worlds.
She only says this because she’s probably going to die in office from old age or some dipshit republican trying to harm her.
She had no intentions of saying/advocating any of this before 2024. 2016 would have been the time to restructure it fully to get more opinions on how to beat Trump, but the DNC argued in court “We have the right to ratfuck our primaries, we’re not under any legal obligation to let the public decide.”
He’s a sitting duck, nothing bad will happen if he just goes “Alright, I’m king for the next 3 months. Here’s some more polices things for Americans, free gun training and a copy of the Improvised Munitions book included.”
He could just… legalize pot, give Americans money, and have Trump taken care of. “but muh rule of law!!! what president would that set for the next dude who’s going to do it anyways?”
Same arguments can and have been used to ban video games, tabletop games, and horror movies.
“Fictional things make people wanna do real life things!”
When you figure out that the United States was established by wealthy white males who owned slaves, had a revolution due to “no taxation without representation” but then purposefully ignored to repent the 99% until major reforms over the years, it makes sense.
The first set presidential elections were only voted by a handful of Americans. Not the women. Not the slaves. Not the natives who were here first. The landowning white men.
When we claimed England is a tyranny but abolished slavery and gave universal aufferage before we did, I think we lost that argument. America was built by out of touch white men, and it has always been ran by out of touch white men.
YOU FREED THE WHAT?!
She had excitement and energy, then said she’d do nothing different than Biden. Lost a lot of energy. Got Time Waltz, more energy, and then the party told him “stop calling Vance weird” and we lost more energy.
She had a better shot at talking trump, she just loved to shoot herself in the foot.

It’s hell, yeah. (I know that’s your joke, but I gotta explain it for weirdos.)
Heel turn? He’s been anti-trump since day one. Criticizing your candidate is good. Trump supporters don’t accept do any criticism.
Russia and China have nothing in power compared to the genuine pure stupidity of Americans. Decades of brainwashing a populous will get you further than invading it from the outside.
And a lot of judges run for office. You have to act tough to get reelected, which means “tough on crime”.
Judges are a heavily flawed attempt on impartiality when poor people do crimes for different reasons than the state and rich commit them.
A rich man will never loiter, a poor person might have to. A state can declare war and pardon its commanders even with rape and murder illegal for everyone else.
Should have publicly shot them and said “Hey we aren’t Germany, we have means to help those Fascism corrupts.”
Citizens United made it legal, nothing new in the country where Trump has a shot to win again.
If Congress cared about privacy, they’d abolish Facebook, Google, Microsoft, and the NSA, and enforce the 4th Amendment.
Instead they try to stiffle the first amendment because it’s hosted in the enemy of the week’s borders.
And this is why Congress tried to ban TikTok. Making a meme to encourage voting? Evil, disgusting, how dare kids want to vote?!
Only Facebook should encourage boomers to vote in hatred and bigotry, not TikTok encouraging someone to vote who was a victim of it!
Chrome has been for years, so this is only a worse problem for end users.
Damn, thank god we killed plastic straws for people with sensitive mouth problems. Thank god Musk can ride his jet 24/7.
Fucking awesome. Onion has been hitting it hard lately, and this is just the cherry on top. I am hopeful this makes some chuds question their minds.
