"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.
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...
