          Given the replies that I didn’t ask for, I’m going to vote that it’s one of the first two.

              No, I said I wanted to ask why (Aka, I have the curiousity to want to ask), then expressed that I didn’t really want to know the answer, which you still took as me asking, however, I didn’t ask. I only expressed that I wanted to.

                  Did you also have trouble in grade school asking if you can go to the bathroom, only to have the teacher all you “I don’t know, can you?” Then you got annoyed by it because you didn’t understand their point?

                  Were you one of those kids?

                    The easiest way to not hear someone’s ideas is not to engage with them.

        Biden is the architect over 52 years in politics of an astounding number of this nations problems and many that affect me personally. He was a bridge too far in 2012 after I learned he wasnt just Obamas weird acting old guy vp.

        I can’t comprehend how anyone was able to vote for him in 2020 and it’s deeply disturbing that anyone would support him now.

            If you believe that trump is an existential threat, saw what happened last time he was declared the loser of an election, recognize that the right is making plans to enact their policy through administrative action (project 2025) and you think it matters how you vote I frankly don’t know what to say.

            I mean, sure, vote for Biden if you can keep your lunch down long enough, but that shouldn’t matter one whit compared to how well you prepare for an enhanced replay of January sixth.

            I do not believe trump is an existential threat. The right can’t gas up the slow slouch into fascism because it would necessitate fucking up the stock market shell game bag and they won’t do that.

            We’re going to get the same shit as last time except this time his administration will have done their homework and won’t have to seethe as wall materials get sold off for scrap value.

                I swear to god.

                Hey, you remember that country we spent fifty years undermining and sabotaging that finally succumbed in the 90s and was sold off for scrap? Well it’s back and it’s in control of one of our political candidates!

                Russigate is a busybox for sequel brained liberals. It’s qanon for the actblue set.

                    I can’t understand this one. Sorry. Some dogwhistles are audible to me and some just aren’t. Can you be a little more clear?

                    While the Soviet Union existed for more than fifty years before 92, the type of active sabotage of its project and very existence that would eventually lead to its downfall at the hands of the us didn’t kick into high gear till about halfway through ww2.

                    I, of course, am not suggesting that the Russian federation is ussr 2.0, but that it’s absurd to ascribe the power to control American politicians to a nation that just recently crawled back up to its pre-collapse level.
