      Don’t forget that it’s the same dipshits that fell for Qanon and “Save the Children” narratives…who now support giving our money to pedophiles who attacked cops and smeared shit all over the Capitol.

      So much patriotism and so much looking out for the kids…

      Not likely. The system has been setup in such a way that your entire life will crumble if you protest since there are virtually no safety nets and your life’s finances, insurance, and credit score are all tied to your job.

      Once you are arrested or lose your job, everything gets repossessed and you are incurable.

      I’m so dejected about it. Our geriatric “leaders” won’t lead and they refuse to get out of the way and let younger generations take their turn. If I didn’t have plenty of skeletons that would be used against me in a campaign, I’d feel a moral obligation to run for office at some level.

        Neither Marco or “JD” are geriatric and that doesn’t make them any better.

        I wouldn’t get distracted by the age of the politician; it doesn’t make much difference. I’d take a 1000 Bernies - even at his current age - over any young douchebag being cranked out by the brosphere.

      I have tried talking to people I am supposedly friend with about this and they just don’t care. It is not affecting them and until it does there will be no will to do anything.

      Kindly excuse black Americans please. We did what were suppose to and im not getting my ass shot fighting for a bunch of white and Latino folks who thought they’d magically be absolved of the consequences of their actions

          When have black ppl not been rolled over? The only difference is now its happening in the suburbs instead of the “ghetto”.
