    I hate to say this but fucking good. Throwing random people in Gitmo wasn’t enough to piss the people off to do anything, because the only thing that would be enough is when they fuck with everyone’s money.

    I hate the “fuck you I got mine” attitude so fucking much.

      You have more hope than I. I seriously do not think Americans will ever do anything. Too many people have been indoctrinated into obedience.

      Sad that it comes to this and people’s social security + other social safety nets having to be cut for them to wake the fuck up.

            There’s a decent correlation there. There was an article or study out out recently that demonstrated that Republican narratives and pundits overwhelmingly dominate the podcast/streaming space by like a 5:1 ratio, and that a lot of people (for some reason, disproportionately men) who are exposed to podcasts and streaming tend to drift right as they’re exposed to these pundits and narratives.

      I seriously doubt this will be enough. A whole lot of qons were very grrrr, mad when Biden talked about loan forgiveness for the same reasons, really (“fuck you I got mine”) and many qons never went to school.

        The average person just needs to fall under a certain level of comfortability for all hell to break loose.

        Unlike Hitler, this guy cant ‘fix’ the economy by going to war because any war big enough to bolster our already over bloated military budget would immediately end in MAD.

        This isn’t a reason to act like its all gonna be okay, but I’d like to think we have a better shot than 1930’s Germany…
