Absolutely!
We need to rewrite every word of the U.S. Constitution to support all the hate and ignorance of modern-day America.
With a little work, we can be one big Alabama: uneducated, dirt poor, diseased, inbred, and White supremacists.
Let’s get ‘er done!
It seems like just yesterday that there was honor and integrity in the U.S. presidency.
Ann Coulter looks like a complete jackass every time she opens her mouth.
Yes, most Americans have progressive values when it comes to things like universal healthcare, quality education, wealth inequality, and environmental responsibility.
But I honestly believe that the reason progressives are doing well in the polls and the primary elections is that Trumpism is nothing but a sick joke, and this is becoming clear to more people every day.
There is a certain class of lowlife that is thrilled that the U.S. is being led by a corrupt criminal, but these numbers are dwindling.
Does America have to be constantly starting new wars against the imaginary enemies of straight white male Christian morons?
Of course!
It’s the only path to peace.
Normally, “nihilism” means the belief that life is without objective meaning, purpose, or intrinsic value. Trump was elected by mean-spirited idiots, but they could hardly be called “nihilists.” For example, they believe very strongly in achieving white supremacy, dismantling of the federal government, saving people from the lethality of vaccinations, etc.
Now, there is a secondary meaning to the word, i.e., those who reject established social systems. In this sense, I suppose they are indeed nihilists, in that they reject lawfulness, honesty, human rights, truth, science, tolerance, and compassion.
Can’t swear that the story here is authentic, but it sure rings true.
Vermont is a somewhat quirky state, but it protects its citizens very well. FWIW, this is where I want MY tax dollars going too.
Florida is a deeply red state that, true to form, wants as much ignorance as it can possibly produce. Educated people aren’t voting for people like Ron DeSantis.
The GOP is asking American voters to believe that “radical left Democrat extremists” are leading the country into socialism/communism. They’re hoping that this fear will outweigh the electorate’s understanding of the damage that Trump, with help of congressional Republicans, is inflicting on this nation in the form of the war in Iran, destroyed relations with allies, inflation, shoddy education, environmental collapse, and threats to Social Security and Medicare.
As we all know, the rate at which a lie becomes accepted as true is a function of the frequency that it is repeated. And God knows, we see this crap about communism every time we turn around.
But this looks like an unwinnable battle. Virtually no one wants to abandon free enterprise. Moreover, Trump’s abysmal polling numbers reflect the fact that he is largely despised as a criminal–the most corrupt figure in U.S. history.
How would you like to be campaigning to retired baby boomers on the platform that we cannot afford Social Security any longer, because we’ve siphoned off huge amounts of money, like our president’s “vanity war,” with only further downside in sight, that is costing $1 billion a day?
It appears that there are a few Republicans who understand the SAVE Act is simply an exercise in voter suppression and thus an attempt to overturn American democracy.
We need to accept any little bit of good news where we can find it.
What Ben Franklin said at left was probably not obvious at the time, but it sure is now. The United States has by far the largest per capita prison population in the world, and we’ve elected a sociopathic criminal as president.
There’s no way to know this for certain, but the U.S. is likely now the most corrupt nation on the planet.
This is all because, in large measure, we’ve lost our ability to think.
