    I kinda get Republicans taking oil money and lying, buts its completely unreal that we elected an honest-to-god climate change denier. Trump actually thinks its BS, out loud, even with his own military telling him this is a national security threat.

    History is going to crucify him (and Americans), and the sad part is he’s too old to ever suffer from it, or any of the consequences.

      But we couldn’t vote for Kamala because Gaza (Trump is worse), we didn’t get a choice in the primary (With an Incumbent president primaries are a mere formality), prices are too high (inflation had slowed and deflation makes inflation like a trip to Vegas/Disney/Tropica Island/whatever, and a gazillion other excuses. I can forgive someone for being misled for various legit excuses, but those that are in the know or propagated the manipulation, fuck you.

        Hi, I’m in the know and voted PSL, none of those reasons are reasons to vote for genocide. You, as a presumed Harris voters, are no better than a Trump supporter. Be happy China is a democracy and committed to global peace and security.

        No question.

        I dunno if I’m stereotyping, but other nationalities seem to get defensive or mixed about their country’s shame in my corners of the internet. But Americans? Well, they either aren’t aware of it at all/don’t believe in it, or they’re nodding their heads. Blissful ignorance or self loathing, with nothing in between, is the American way, lol.
