Make sure you don’t vote for Biden though, because of that one issue you suddenly care about.
that one issue you suddenly care about.
That will also be significantly worse under Trump.
Yeah, but then 81 year old Biden will have sure have learned his lesson (wags finger)
Anyone who says any politician has learned a lesson is lying.
What a bad “cynicism is easier than engaging with reality” zero-brain take.
Many politicians just suck. Of course.
But some politicians are clearly trying, growing, learning, and improving. And throwing them out with the bathwater, giving them no support, and equating them to the ones that suck is terminally, suicidally stupid.
But hey, cynicism is easy. People think you’re cool, and you don’t have to put any effort in.
I hope Biden can grow and improve quicker, like preferably before election day so a bunch of voters won’t feel bad about voting for him. I really don’t want Trump.
Biden is easily the best president of my lifetime by a factor of 10, but good governance is boring and quiet, while propaganda is loud and distracting.
If just doing a good job isn’t enough, then what else is there?
He’s pretty good on most things, except the genocide issue. Which is unfortunate because that’s a big one for a whole lot of people. Which makes sense. No one will say Mussolini helped the trains run on time or Hitler’s wars helped the German economy. The other bad things they did make those things seem less consequential. Genocide is like that. A lot of people here are lucky because they live in the imperial core, but for others who knows those being affected by the foreign policy, then it’s priority rises even more.
I stopped voting when Obama didn’t stop that thing that we “suddenly care about”. Blue MAGA == Red MAGA
Also, leftist single issue voters == right wing single issue voters
Would a person be a single issue voter if Trump being the president was the issue? 🤔
Nah, once you consider being for or against someone to be a “single issue”, then most votes through history get wrapped up in it, rendering it kind of moot.
Additionally, I can easily break down the actual issues behind why I’m voting against trump :)
Myopia is common in all computer users though?
I.e. russian trolls playing the “thoughtful liberal” telling a heartfelt story about how they cannot vote for Biden in good conscience because of this issue.
It is also the lone issue that Repubs somehow aren’t oppositional defiant disorder about. “Let’s get the Muslim ban guy back in there, he’ll save Palestine.”
Turns out there are plenty of useful idiots who think they are insulated from the consequences of an election by campus security and daddy’s money.
But then others of them know what they’re up to. They want Donald to help speed the collapse so China can gain more ground. That’s hypocrisy, those guys don’t give a shit about human rights abuses as long as the nation committing them pretends to be socialist.
I like how you avoid saying what the issue is, because it sounds a lot worse when you say it’s genocide. I think that’s a fair line in the sand to draw for people. Hopefully Biden movies on that stance soon so we don’t get Trump. We all better keep pushing him.
I think that’s a fair line in the sand to draw for people.
If they actually cared, they wouldn’t be willing to risk allowing Trump to take over and do worse.

Ladies and gentlemen, the party of law and order. We know who will be selected as the new supreme court judge soon…
Who’s the president right now? Wonder what he’s up to. Wonder if he’s fixing this. Wonder if he’s anything better than the capitalistic fascist of American conservatism.
You wonder if the president is “fixing this”?
How do you think this country works??
He doesn’t have the majority needed to do all that needs to be done, otherwise he could’ve expanded SCOTUS already and reversed half the bullshit.
Republicans have the majority at the moment. A president isn’t a dictator, though Trump is planning to become one.
Who’s the president right now?
Vladimir Putin, according to the memes.
Well if the supreme Court will give presidents immunity prior November, so that Trump can participate, then Biden just has to order a hit on him. because, you know presidents are immune. …
If Trump is actually, as so many claim, a threat to our way of government then he’s a domestic enemy.
I guess maybe that’s all just trivial talk though.
I wish we had better civics classes in schools. It would be nice to skip past all the 13-year-olds’ spicy takes on why this judge is somehow Biden’s fault.
“the fact that i am at risk of seeing a 14 year old’s opinion at any time of day on the internet is a human rights violation” - nostradamus, 2020
Seems like you want to say something there little buddy. Be brave, say what you want to say instead of asking questions.
Those questions are extremely easily translated into statements:
Biden is President right now
He’s doing nothing to fix thisGosh my brain hurts after all that generous reading.
Do you even know what a president does? The fuck kind of idiotic take is this?
Take a fucking civics course dumbass
I agree with that. How is that relevant to the root of this conversation?
Just because the Republicans are shit doesn’t mean that the Democrats are not also shit.
What would you suggest he do specifically?
You gotta grab the courts by their judges, when your rich enough they let you do it.
federal judge commits treason again
Jack Smith’s next move will be exciting. Will he get the case moved?
After decades of Americans saving the world in movies I can now confidently say that they instead will just sit at home continuing their consumption until someone comes and shoots them like a dog. We jUsT NeeD tO VoTe HArdEr
Or people just need to vote. Seriously. That’s the solution.
jUsT vOtE
For what? No change? The status quo? I’d rather vote for America’s downfall so that the pain and terror Americans inflict overseas, is felt here in our borders.
Americans love violence so much, why should you have peace in your streets?
You need to get off the internet for a while if this post is actually serious
Because a majority of people dislike the same violence, want to see military spending reduced to pay for the things the population need. However, the best we can do to get all that it’s vote and protest and they’re making both “illegal”, or at least trying. Don’t think everyone here is a craven money leech.
Many of us just want to live free of worry and pain, be happy with family and friends, and try to make this planet as livable, as we can for all, with the husk of a world we are left with.
Psychotic take
What a psycho. Were you asleep in the WWII section or do that cover that in a later grade at your school? A fascist dictatorship will be invading foreign nations harder than it ever has. All while removing the rights and lives of minority groups domestically.
I mean I didn’t read or go to school either, but people tell me hands-on is the best way to learn, so why don’t we do it ourselves? ^/s
You’re not yourself when you’re hungry, have a SNICKERS^®
For who? Democrats just idly sit around and get even older while republicans rape every single institution without consequences. They commited a fucking insurrection and nothing happened. Democrats had a majority for years and yet the american society and politics continue to be more fucked up. American democracy is just an illusion of freedom they allow you to have. Their two party system is the best proof for that. They will never allow you to change anything because the for profit government is working as they intended.
Ohh shit, it’s that late? Good morning over there, hope enjoying the sunrise on the first full day of Putin’s newest term.
Oh yes the classic “if he is criticizing the failure of american politics he must be a russian troll”. What’s next? I can’t criticize the sitting american president for funding genocide because im immediately a trump suppoerter?
My guess is it’s less about the criticism and more about you discouraging folks from voting at all.
I would assume you’re a Trumpanzee if you fail to note that Donald wants Israel to “finish the job.” That Donald entered office on a campaign of racism and started his term with a Muslim ban.
Other than that I am also dismayed with what the country is up to.
I can’t criticize the sitting american president for funding genocide
That comment is often made by certain people. Initially you imply “both parties are the same”, then follow-up with the genocide comment about the current president. That does repeat the usual disinformation. And it seems you’re “just asking questions” at the moment.
Why would they change a damn thing if young adults never vote?
They commited a fucking insurrection and nothing happened.
Thousands of people were put in jail. Nothing was done about Trump because Republicans blocked that and Democrats couldn’t do anything on their own. Currently nothing is being done thanks to the help of judges Trump appointed.
There’s a huge difference in these parties. But it seems you just repeat propaganda by implying both parties are the same.
Vote for the best option you have. Maybe you don’t feel like the current options are great; but just suppose you keep voting for the best of your options, and that best option keeps winning. The idea is that later someone will think “maybe I can win by being even better…”. That’s the theory of democracy anyway. If the best candidate keeps winning, then the competition improves to challenge them. But right now that doesn’t seem to be happening.
As long as someone like Trump can get even vaguely close to victory, that either means that a near-majority of Americans believe Trump is the better option, or that not enough people are voting. I think it’s probably the second one. The republican strategy has nothing to do with fielding the best candidate. Instead they rely on feeding voter apathy, anger, and doubt. They want anyone who isn’t a zealot to be uncertain about voting. That’s how they win. We’re not going to see the best candidates while that strategy is in play. And to beat the ‘don’t vote’ strategy… well, you just have to vote.
I’m so close to violating Rule 1 of this community right now
We’re so fucked. If not now, this just opens the door to more in the future.
Trump sycophant and part time federal judge…
I want to THANK Aileen Canon for making it LEGAL to STEAL TOP SECRET UNITED STATES DEFENSE DOCUMENTS!
No, it’s not legal for others to do. Just trump and his buddies.
What if I report the value to the IRS under other income?
Still have to declare under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (unless you’re friends with a judge)
Trump wins election
“We have scheduled the trial for the day after inauguration. No reason.”
Bitch been bought yall
Gosh. Who saw THAT coming.
So, it’s corruption all the way down I guess.
Shit starts upstream and flows all the way down
trickle down corruption
The only thing Reagan actually accomplished!
ahhh thats not fair, he accomplished destroying the foundations of American Democracy.
Where are all those people that said Canon “wouldnt ruin her career” doing something like this after it was pointed out that Trump appointed her?
If Trump gets elected, she will get a seat on the SCOTUS.
He got what he wanted. The only thing that will happen is the bus bouncing a couple times after he throws her under it. Source: look at every other person in Donald’s orbit.
She’ll for sure get a seat on his SCROTUS.
Gross.
GROTUS
You deserve your fate. And my blue arrow.
