Yeah, the excerpt in period script that says “We the People…” and nothing else. Pretty much all they know of the constitution anyway besides the 2nd Amendment.

It’s like a car covered with bumper stickers. It’s mental illness. Unhealthy fear and rage leaking out around the edges and corrupting the facade of decency.

Some version of a window-wide US flag with the angry eagle, a Gadsden snake sticker, a gun maker sticker, an AR silhouette variant sticker with a juvenile anti-lib slogan like “my AR says fuck your lib tears” and of course the NRA sticker and a military service branch sticker.

Gravy Seal. Proclaiming what a badass he is but probably starts wheezing just making it to the table from the Cracker Barrel parking lot.

I have an acquaintance that works for an old money, very wealthy family from oil money. The kind that influences regional as well as national politics. He worked for them during the last major recession in the late ‘00s. He basically said that his employer and all their buddies were running all over the world buying everything they could “like it is a fire sale” during the recession.

So yeah. This is how we get more billionaires, more oligarchs, and more meta national corpo monopolies where one company controls multiple brand names.

Almost like someone actively causing instability with bad economic policy and stirring global political instability would cause it to go down.

Easy unmemorable throwaways. Plenty of services will tell you that your chosen screen name is taken and automatically offer the same thing followed by numbers, “UserName123” for instance.

The medical misinformation led to the measles outbreak. It’s not in parallel, it’s in series.

I’ts all good bruddah, how you doin’?

That’s some logic all right.

You can endorse the winner and not vote, or even the opposite, or vote for the winner. Whether or not you vote doesn’t take away your opinion on the results. It’s not really an issue that needs debating.

At face value and objectively it’s wrong.

Most Americans did not vote for Trump.

Here’s how it works:

*US Population, adult over 18: ~250 million.

*Of that population, ~244 million are eligible to vote.

*Of eligible voters, only 63.9% voted.

*Of the 63.9%, less than half, 49.8%, went to Trump. To re-emphasize that point, Trump did not get more than 50%.

*Harris got 48.3%

*The ~1% difference voted third party.

The math is pretty basic. 63.9% of 250 million is 159.7 million voting, 49.8% of that voting for trump is 79.5 million.

So out of 250 million, ~32% actually voted for trump. The rest is the issue with the electoral college, but we’re talking people, not the EC.

But wait, that’s just voters. What about people?

Pew shows 49% Democrats, 48% Republican, 3% other, so 52% are not Republican.

So by no metric are a majority conservative or Republican.

It’s been over for a while. Just took people a while to realize it and admit it. Well, unless you’re republican. The American Dream is still alive. Y’know, the one where a fake billionaire felon can become prez and wreck the country while hiring a billionaire racist foreigner to fuck everything up the felon doesn’t understand. Which is pretty much everything.

There was supposed to be a well regulated militia.

The militia we have are gravy seals and Y’all Qaeda who want to dismantle regulation and rights.

And if his decrees don’t have the expected results, it’s someone else’s fault.

Gotta tell ya, there are an unfortunate number of Russians and Americans that support shitty leadership because they’re shitty people and they want shitty things to happen, and a bunch more that are willing to look the other way if they perceive it helps them somehow.

Yeah, fucking over some wageslave by making them clean that up really sends a message to the country. TF, man.

That’s an understandable position. I also agree that we should let others do what works for them so long as nobody’s being hurt even if we wouldn’t choose to do it ourselves. However, I view polyamory as something that happens in an already established relationship, not the casual dating phase.

“I’m a republican, and I will consistently, and wrongly, vote in what I think are the best interests of my wallet while paying lip service to liberal social ideals. “
