We are actually seeing the us get destroyed by a mad king. Never let conservatives forget that they ushered in a man who intentionally tried to destroy their country.
Yes, yes, but "Daddy's home, you guys! And he has his belt off! Yah-fucking-hoooooo! 'merica gunna be so gud noaw! Egg prices? What egg prices? Everything else is even more expensive, too, but we were for low prices before we were AGAINST them!"
This gives stupid people a real chubby, so we should all have to suffer for their stupid feels.
Not just the Conservatives; there's always a cohort of Democrats willing to side with Republicans to make sure the worst ideas make it across the finish line.
Dema haven't been "on our side" for decades. They're too busy milking the corporate teat.
Jfc this is the fault of republicans. It’s not always both sides.
Oh, look, "both sides bad", the reason we're all here.
They are both bad and have a massive overlap. But yes one party is clearly better and at least tries to help however flawed it may be.
Still both Dems and Republicans are ruled by the elite and the interests of the oligarchy. That's clear and part of the problem. Until we change how our elections work though it's in everyone's best interest to vote for the democratic party
Not sure there is a change to elections that will help. Homo sapiens became the dominant species by a tendency toward small group loyalty. That will be exploitable as long after you and I are dead I figure. Our best hope is a benevolent AI takeover. How sad is that.
