I’m shocked I tell you

You’re right, if we stop voting Democrat we might have a fascist come into power with control of all three branches of government…oh wait, fuck

… maybe we can vote democrat and stop it for a second time? …wait, wait fuck

… well maybe we can keep voting democrat to stop it happening for a third time I guess?

Democrat supporters are fucking deluded at this point.

Democrats lost worse on 2024 than Republicans did 2020. We judge Republicans for supporting their party after Trump effectively commandeered it but we don’t hold ourselves to the same standard when the Democratic party has been shown to be an absolute and abject failure. Maybe it’s time we look in the mirror. We gave Democrats three chances, 2016, 2020, and 2024 and they failed to deliver every time. We need to hold ourselves to the same standards we hold Republicans and start thinking about alternatives.

It’s going to take us at least a couple decades to get back on track. At that point I’ll be near retirement age. Yeah history progresses, but for me personally it’s over.

If it wasn’t going g to happen now it was going to happen 4 years from now. These people were never going to go away. Now we just have to let them burn the country down to completion before people come back to their senses. It sucks we have to be the ones living through it though

If they could read they would be very upset you said that

If it was against an insurgency sure. But clearly Trump is what the majority wants so let these dipshits fester in their own urine. If Trump doesn’t fix the economy then maybe.

Silver lining I guess. But it was more to save the preservation of the Union, there were still slave states in the Union during the Civil War. And non-blacks still thought they were superior to blacks even if they didn’t believe in slavery, and that was the majority opinion long after the Civil war too.

Yup, progressive politics in the US has been an exception not the rule. After about ~30 years we are just going back to business as usual. People forget segregation and women not being able to have their own bank accounts and abortion being illegal (the first time), is not something from ancient history. And before that the country literally went to war over itself over the idea that they should be able to own other huma s as property

They all voted with their wallets. It’s really simple. That’s how these people are able to come into power.

I’ve been learning about the history of the Civil War. Progressive politics in America are the exception not the rule, hundreds of thousands of Americans died because they wanted to own other human beings as property.

I don’t even care anymore

Me thinking I pass

Lol bullets per square child. I’m going to hell if I wasn’t already

Nice pfp

Lemmy users are hookers confirmed

Blows my minds that Indian and Asian food at one point wasn’t spicy, and it wasn’t until Europian trade from the America’s that changed the cuisine

It’s easily one of my favorite movies, and I think the characters and themes of 2049 stay truer to the book than the original bladerunner even though the plot changed.
