that’s quite a turn to take between February and Dodecember
Ah yes, the fictionalized content where our enemy has learned we’re right and they’re wrong.
I mean why understand our enemy, when we can echo chamber.
Have the day you voted for. :D
The crazy thing about this piece of shit, is that he has so much hate for marginalized people, that even though he is actively being fucked by what he voted for, he can’t even bring himself to lying and saying that he will vote for the opposing party, and of course in reality will continue to vote for fucking himself because he hopes it fucks the marginalized more.
This guy seems like a real scrotum.
Hemp farmers, back to the unemployment office…
How does he believe these things and yet also choose to sell weed?
This has got to be a satire account ?
You could say that about the entire US
No he isn’t. Scrotums are useful.
“We are so back…” (wards)
“Women, back to kitchen”
Lmao, my dad cooks better than my mom, and my mom can’t even cook, and she happens to make the most money. Did I grow up in an inverted household?
Worlds best chefs are all men.
Bro seriously! Also cooking for yourself is rewarding in its own right. Like it is literally part of being a complete person. Also guaranteed this fucker would never talk like this IRL.
you are being oppressed. do not resist us. you will be freed from your oppression.
*I grew up similarly to you
God pls no, no one deserves to be forced fed mom’s cooking… that’s a fate worse than death.
He’s the type to pray before meals … because his mom cooks them.
He should been hurt way more.
He thinks he’s going to get a repeal of Loving v. Virginia? Who does he think the vice president is married to?
The president married an immigrant too, lol.
Usha Vance isn’t an immigrant to be fair
Oh no, I meant Melina. Though Usha needs to find a better guy. Good lord, haha.
she’s not white, so she’s an immigant. At least according to MAGAts.
Option A: “Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”
Option B: that’s how Vance plans to get out of it and go after Charlie Kirk’s wife next
You’re on the money, maybe in both cases.
Pointing out the ridiculousness and hypocrisy of these men does not challenge them anyway. They are comfortable with their madness, I know this. The jokes are only for us at this point.
But the thing is he will totally vote in 2028.
He will either have simply forgotten, or the republicans will have fabricated some new crisis by then and he will tell himself “well I have to vote or the democrats will force everyone to be non binary and polyamorous!!!”
Is that really so bad?
Like, hell
manperson, let’s just make a pile.I call top of the pile!
Translation: "The government I voted for on the promise of hurting other people ended up hurting me as well so as a consequence I’m going to abstain from any collective decision making for the foreseeable future, that’ll show 'em!
I love how the only option in his mind is to not vote in the future. Not trying to find the party that represents him, or vote for the other party that protects his views, but just give up entirely on democracy cause of one issue.
He is a weak person, a weak american, and is one of the problems with this country.
In fairness. First past the post necessarily leads to a two party state.
I’m sorry, but the only option is to single-mindedly campaign for pretentitial voting.
Voting for another party that protects his views is cute, but totally incompatible with the voting system in place in the US.
*Disclaimer that I feel entitled to comment on US politics as a citizen of the provinces (Australia)
It’s the unironic goal of a two party system. I’ve got beef with right wing “libertarians” but they’re the closest current thing to a viable third party and they don’t even enter this chud’s thoughts.
the closest current thing to a viable third party
God that’s so sad. Have you ever spoken to a Libertarian? They’re right wing, but somehow even dumber.
Oh, buddy, I got you beat. I used to be a libertarian in my early thirties. I’m in my mid forties now and I’m dumb as a bag of rocks. As dumb as I am now I’ve experienced an insane amount of learning and growth to lead me away from libertarianism.
Well, leftists and our infamous inability to organize without infighting is biting us in that regard.
You’ll be lucky to be voting, Evan.
He said he won’t be, so accurate either way.
These people are racist goldfish. As soon as the GOP dangles keys in his face again he’ll believe everything they say.
“My side fucked me, so I won’t vote for anyone for a couple of years. That’ll learn 'em.”
Focusing on cannabis since the guy is complaining about his hemp farm.
The Democrats here in Ohio have done fuck all to protect the decriminalized cannabis that we voted in support of by 60% back in 2023 (same with abortion the same day). Republicans immediatly set to work to limit home growth and how much you can buy. Did the Democrats run ads in Ohio about how they were going to protect our right to grow and consume cannabis? Did they talk about how Republicans were going to roll back the provisions we all agreed on? No. They ran ads about how they were going to help Trump hurt trans kids and “secure the border” here in Ohio. The Democrats and Republicans have lost all credibility with everyone that isn’t a die-hard supporter of the parties. People stop voting when they feel like neither party cares about their interests.
Yeah, I keep hearing about how useless the dems are. I dunno what you guys can possibly do to fix things over there tbh. So I understand feeling hopeless.
The Dems are primarily right of centre capitalists who think they’ll win if they appeal to the “centrists” between the two parties (hasn’t worked), and the Repubs are literal Nazis. So yeah, not great.
Americans are odd. They complain about “both sides” but a lot of them don’t participate in primary elections.
There are definitely problems with the way the parties pick candidates but the primary is by far the more important election for those that consistently vote for the same party.
It’s a Charlie Brown and the football situation. You can only fall for the same bait and switch so many times before you just give up. In a democracy it leads to voter apathy. And primaries are poorly run. If it isn’t a prominent one, you likely won’t find much information on the candidates prior to the primary election, and for the president, they sre pretty much decided by 4th one so if you’re state does a later primary, chances are that your preferred candidate has already dropped out by the time you can actually vote for them.
To my knowledge Americans have never given Democrats a chance, the Democrats haven’t had a majority capable of pushing a bill through without Republican participation since 2008 and Republicans have been remarkably consistent at pulling the party together to stonewall Democrats so they look ineffective.
I mean the Democrats are often ineffective but at least punish them for the failures they make on their own merits, like the recent agreement to reopen the government.
They had a majority in the House from 2006 to 2010 and from 2008 to 2014 in the Senate. It’s not like the GOP has been in power forever. And again in the Senate from 2022 to 2024 and from 2018 to 2022 in the House.
There’s a reason why some people dont really believe in them
I was referring specifically to Senate, however it’s a long messy history, let me go on GovTrack.us and see if I can find the senate records to explain what I mean
Edit: there it is,
✓On the opening day of the One Hundred Seventeenth Congress, the U.S. Senate was comprised of 51 Republicans, 46 Democrats, 2 Independents (who caucused with the Democrats), and 1 vacancy. No candidate received a majority of votes in the general election for Georgia’s class 2 seat or in the special election for Georgia’s class 3 seat. Runoff elections for both of the state’s Senate seats were scheduled for January 5, 2021. Democratic candidates won both elections. Following the inauguration of Vice President Kamala D. Harris on January 20, 2021, the Senate had a Democratic majority, comprised of 50 Republicans, 48 Democrats, and 2 Independents (who caucus with the Democrats). The Vice President is able to cast tie-breaking votes in the Senate. See United States Senate, “Party Division,” https://www.senate.gov/history/partydiv.htm. Office of the Historian: history@mail.house.gov Office of Art & Archives, Office of the Clerk: art@mail.house.gov, archives@mail.house.gov
The below information is a tie which effectively allowed for stonewalling. Yes if all Democratic senators, 2 independents and the vice president voted together they could push things through. However the fact of the matter is they don’t tow the party line like Republicans and vote more independently. Perhaps a party failure but I see that as a tenant of a functioning democracy.
You could make the argument against an enemy willing to use those tactics not using them Is a failure to the people but I’d argue the smarter thing as individuals would be to blame Republicans and vote them out of positions of power.
And before that the last time they had a majority was 2009 to 2011
A big part of the problem is the length of the “primary season” and spreading out votes over the course of several months.
This makes it really hard to sustain a budget, especially for grassroots candidates…but also sets up frontrunners in a big way.
IMO primaries would have a different outcome if they were all held on one day and we limited primary campaign season to like 3 months tops.
I’d say something about superdelegates but the fact is that parties and primaries aren’t really a part of the process. People treat the GOP and DNC like they are official government branches when really they are just more like a private club. They let us have a primary. If the bylaws say they can override the primary, that’s the bylaws. If people disagree with it, then either the bylaws get changed or a new club gets founded.
The problem, then, is that our voting system ultimately necessitates no more than two major parties. Since the winner is the one with the most votes*, it’s very easy for two parties that align on many fronts to actively work against each other…see Ralph Nader in Florida in 2000. And it takes a huge shift to uproot an established party.
Ah yes victim blaming. We work 60 hours or more a week to keep th slights on but also gotta figure out who’s running on our exact platforms and show up to vote when we don’t get paid and find the voting stations because fuck all? Yeah ok it’s my bad for not voting in primaries lol
Yeah ok it’s my bad for not voting in primaries lol
Yes.
Excuses don’t change anything, the person in this meme has them too.
Unfortunately, running ads against all the shitty things that Republicans do would bankrupt someone as wealthy as Bezos. At a certain point, people need to take some personal responsibility in researching and making an informed vote, instead of just relying on who had the most recent snappy attack ad campaign.
Also what pisses me off enormously is that people (especially in politics) refuse to ever say what they actually think. They will say one thing while knowing full well that they actually mean something completely different. There needs to be more correlation between what people say and what they mean. Especially, i’m sick of parties only trying to get people’s attention and not actually having any ideals they believe in themselves.
Trump says whatever enters his brain at any given second…
The two sides are similar, sure, but one side is hurting much more people than other.
The narrative the two sides are the same elected Trump since many shared this idea and didn’t show up to vote… MAGA for sure will go out and vote
Yeah Sherrod Brown basically threw the election. Ohio isn’t as red as its democrats seem to think
I mean this was the unironic sentiment around here in the months leading up to the 2024 election.
I think you’re conflating the RT troll accounts with actual popular opinions… And cause and effect. Even the actual “protest non voters” were upset on behalf of the, you know, active genocide happening to other people.
That is the functional difference between a conservative and basically everyone else after all, the capacity for empathy and understanding that bad things are still bad when they don’t happen to you personally.
These people have been so brain broken that they will never vote for anyone with a ‘D’ next to their name.
This person doesn’t even need to mention it, it’s just a given that he will go right to not voting (which I’ll take as a win).
“Can’t blame me for the death of democracy, I don’t participate.”
Its win win for the Goofy Old Phuckers. This ignorant(?) fool votes for his golden calf. Gets mad because that calf fucks him up. His solution is to not vote. Not to vote out the people that screwed him over but just not vote. So is it ignorance or stupidity.
I say why not both.
Notice he’s not mad about anything else? This dude loves the GOP, just mad they screwed him over. He’ll vote for em again the moment they promise to kill 20 browns, Jews or gays
Most people have surprisingly short memories. Despite what he says he will likely vote for them again because Fox News or Rogan or whatever will wind him up about something and that will be top of mind.
I’m so disgusted that these people have the gall to call themselves patriots.
They’ve redefined the term patriot in my head to mean “racist traitor”
They’d been doing that since 2001.
Yeah, even living in the US I’d say I am patriotic in that I want the best future we can manage for this fucked up place.
I love my wife and my child even more, but that doesn’t mean I pretend they are without flaw and always correct. I would be remiss in my relationships and commitments if I did that, actually.
But I don’t think I’ll ever think or say “I am a patriot” because of exactly what you say. It sucks when awful people ruin innocent terms.
People who have to call themselves patriots, are not patriots.
“He’s a real patriot! He told me so himself!”
I will not be voting
Most intelligent Republican lmao
Well, of course they couldn’t try to stop this in the future. Best we can hope for is them to pretend not to support it, briefly. This dipshit will vote republican in perpetuity
“We are so back.”
To what, 1929?
They were trying to get to 1700 something, so they’ve made some progress, from their point of view. I don’t know what all the wailing is about.
