    Most of them voted pro-capitalist their entire adult life, though.

      Being stupid is not a punishable offence

        It is when so many people stupid together that it systematically starts kill them. Is it a 3rd party punishment? Nope, it’s FAFO on a national scale. Unfortunately it’s going to be epic in just how much suffering it causes.

        At some point it is. It’s self-punishing, though. Problem being is the context of that stupidity affecting society as a whole and dragging the rest of us down with them. As a society we should have the ability to erect guardrails to help even the willfully stupid, but the stupid do their best to eliminate any such aid because.

        Of course it isn’t, but I’m not gonna feel bad when the people that advocated for drinking battery acid die with a hole in their stomachs.

        I sometimes think it should be since most stupid people are stupid of their own volition.

    It does seem that a lot of this administrations policies have had the effect of seniors dying.
