I mean he’s a convicted felon and adjudicated rapist who illegally attempted to overturn an election and is now tanking our economy.
So yeah, he’s traitorous scum.

Apes are smarter than this.
- Comment on Texas Senate passes anti-solar, wind bill 6 days ago:
The age of anti-intellectualism is well underway.
And now we can actually destroy the Earth with our ignorance, which wasn’t really a possibility in the past.
If anyone is still on the fence whether humanity is going to make it or not, the answer should be pretty obvious at this point. I guess just be happy you’re alive now. It’s just going to get worse.

Lol. Conservatives don’t care. Libs fucking OWNED. We got fucking OWNED, y’all.
Do you feel it? Does it fucking hurt to be owned by poor people who will now be poorer with less options?
They fucking showed us. And themselves. Fuck yeah!!!
Ignorance is strength!!!

Folding like a cheap suit after making duuuuumbfuck decisions.
A true American hero.
The conservative savior.
A cult.
It’s a cult.
- Comment on How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy? 2 weeks ago:
I’d take that chance.
He’s a cult leader. Cults tend to collapse after the cult leader dies. It was so close to the election I don’t think there would have been enough support for another Republican to win in the chaos that would have ensued within the Republican party.
It almost certainly would have resulted in a better future.
Kid shouldn’t have aimed for the head. Harder to hit and nothing there anyway.

- Comment on Do you think Social Media is just exaggerated as being placed of being the source of all problems? 4 weeks ago:
As someone who became an adult before social media was a thing, it has absolutely been a detriment to society.
There’s great aspects to it and I utilize them. But as a whole, it has FUUUUCKED us up in a very significant way.
There is a direct correlation between the rise of social media and the absolute nosedive our political discourse has taken. Misinformation is SO much more prevalent now. And that rise in misinformation is definitely having real world effects.

Your mom sounds like kind of an asshole. She was alienated from liberalism because she was tired of hearing about a minority being targeted by a fascist party for existing?
That’s some asshole behavior.

I now have no reason to be excited about their platform
I’m excited about the part where they AREN’T FUCKING FASCISTS.
I’m completely numb to anything they say negatively about Trump.
Then Trump has beaten you through attrition, which was his goal.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
We’ve never elected a felon rapist who attempted to overthrow our government.
So clearly something has changed.

Boomers aren’t responsible for all our woes, but they absolutely have pulled up the ladder. That’s not debatable. Voting records prove it.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
Saying that boomers hold all the wealth is not correct
They don’t hold ALL the wealth, but they do hold the most. And that allows them to contribute more to political campaigns and have an outsized effect on legislation.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
Are we more stupid than we used to be? Yeah. But I’d use the word ignorant instead. It’s a bit more accurate. Ignorance is chosen, and that’s what our current epidemic of stupidity is. Chosen.
There have always been a lot of ignorant people, but now, with social media, those people have platforms to infect others with their ignorance. Also, in my own lifetime, I’ve witnessed a shift from ignorant people still being able to set aside partisan politics to condemn obviously bad actors or decisions to 100% doubling down on partisan politics no matter how bad the person or action is.
I’ve definitely FELT this increase in willful ignorance over the course of my life living in this country. People in my own life choosing to believe things they absolutely would not have believed a couple decades ago. People not understanding super basic concepts.
I think there are other factors than just bad actors spreading ignorance on social media. I think a lot of it has to do with simple distractions. The modern world has so many. A lot of the people I know don’t even read books. Like, they simply don’t read. If I ask them what book they read last they have to concentrate because it was multiple years ago. That’s fucking crazy. Instead of picking up a book they’re watching Real Wives of Whatever. Getting involved in some wealthy person’s 1st world problems, instead of, you know, learning something.
We’re entering an age of concentrated ignorance and, unfortunately, that’s very unlikely to end anytime soon. And the stakes are higher than ever for something like that to happen because we possess greater power to decimate this planet than we used to. Through pollution or braindead child-like politicians who can wage war or launch nukes.
It takes a lot less effort to allow things to keep going the way they are than it does to turn things around and responsibly educate the masses. So we’re probably going to continue spiraling.
Things are going to get dark. Our quality of life will decline.
