It's really important to promote leopards so they don't eat your face when they get hungry.

USians are so racist you have to explain bad things using the words "Russian" and "Iranian" next to them. Like, you have Fox news already for half a century don't you? What do you mean "Russian style disinformation"? You guys invented it before the Russian Federation existed lmao

You people wouldn’t find political education if it hit you in the face.

That's nationalism and jingoism, not racism.

Jeez.

Well, probably both with the Iranian thing.

Oh, that can be arranged, just in case.

These people have presidents swear on the bible and talk about theocracies smh

Ah, no, i thought more about that there were different types of slavery (african, british, etc.) that somewhat worked with society but US took of every style the worst parts and made it an inter-generational instead of a limited-time thing.

And I'm sure their policies would introduce runoff voting for future elections; but as it stands, most voters are currently voting out of fear of "the other big party" - for which voting Green poses an extreme risk.

Which is a confidence game. The big parties only matter because people have been convinced that they matter. Once this illusion is broken, real progress can begin, but until it is broken the US will simply continue its vicious cycle into oblivion.

Besides, what chance to Dems have of winning at this rate anyway? What chance did they have leading up to this past election as they covered up Biden's dementia, enabled a genocide, and imposed a candidate of their choosing after denying the people actual democracy? Are they redeemable?

I'm not at all ready for it, but I've been acutely aware it was coming since the night of Nov. 6th.

Yes, yes they are. Actually the Republicans at least have the virtue of being honest about being evil. Dems are too cowardly to even admit that.

I hope these fuckers are happy now. They got what they wanted. Or just ignored the problem and now that it's not going away they've finally realized that maybe they should have voted differently. Or at all.

I hope y'all bastards suffer.

The US has only had 1 president who wasn't Christian and that was Thomas Jefferson who thought the Bible had been adopted by to many political ideologies that tainted the better moral frameworks.

Every president after has been directly and only Christian. No Jewish, no Buddhists, no separation of church and state ever allowed.

Yeah that's taking advantage of a privilege that practically zero other people have to flee to a safer distance from the problem. That isn't helping clean up the mess and doesn't entirely fully remove you from it.
It allows you to claim you aren't involved because you stay uninvolved but it's not the same as being helpful or even being offerable advice to anyone else other than a percentage so small it rounds down to zero.

I am saving my queer daughter's life.

I suppose you would rather me stick around and have her marched into a camp?

Do you have any kids? Would you sacrifice children for your cause?

Doesn't mean that people weren't desperate for an alternative. People don't have the knowledge you do and often don't think through every possible outcome. If they know they are suffering and there is a chance for change they will leap towards it even if it's out of the pot and into the fire. Humans crave change and the status quo has been used as a cludgel against them for decades.

You can be upset that this is the change that's happening but don't blame people that are suffering and try not to be smug about it when they suffer more or they will never view you as kind to their plight.

I didn't say that. I was pointing out the privilege of your statement when you offer that as a solution to this issue.

You can use the idea that anyone pointing it out is some villain who would have your family hurt but that's not reality. It's just an emotional response to protect your mindset. That's fine. Don't treat me poorly because of it though. You already got more privileges than the queer people left behind who may be in what you fantasize and have nightmares of.

It's not a sacrifice if we can't leave. It's just reality. Something you have a privilege to alter to ignore.

This is what you said:

It allows you to claim you aren’t involved because you stay uninvolved but it’s not the same as being helpful or even being offerable advice to anyone else other than a percentage so small it rounds down to zero.

As if that was why I left.

I never even claimed I wasn't involved, so it's just a lie anyway.

Stupidity and ignorance are way too widespread. It should not take a genius to figure out that trump and the GOP are pretty much against the working class. I’m not saying democrats are saints, but at least Biden tried to cancel student loan debt, and somehow that got looked at negatively??!?
