US politics are a ship. They don't turn on a dime. We are headed in a better direction in the grand scheme. Short downturns happen. When Bush was president everyone thought the government was going to become a Christofacist regime. The end of times are not near. If you truly believe there is no hope, then why aren't you taking to the streets with violence? I think THAT'S pathetic. You think the end is coming and you just sit and bitch online and do nothing.

You watched the news even once in the last ten years? What the fuck do you think the BLM and Antifa movements were about, planting daisies?

So we are in agreement, right? America isn't full of pathetic do-nothings.
