Right except that voting patterns don't fall along state borders jackass. Rural Alaska is famously deep blue because of the high percentage of indigenous residents. Maybe you arrogant fucks sitting comfy in your deep blue states where you don't have to do anything to get the results you want should have more sympathy for those of us trying to push this boulder up a red hill.

See, e.g., Obama winning it, the world champ of extrajudicial drone strike assassinations, including against a US citizen.

Not OP and not particularly knowledgeable, but under Modi India has shifted into something closer to old-school, early 1900s fascism than almost any other country currently. For example, his rise to power was largely on the back of inciting mob violence against Muslims while giving the perpetrators impunity. He continued that policy on the national level, and his party's paramilitary wing is much like the Brownshirts.

I didn't have that one but I had the original one on NES!

Russia says they'll take out their nuclear arsenal if someone asks them for something without including the word "please." Hell, the only reason Ukraine doesn't have their own is because it was given to Russia in exchange for a promise not to invade Ukraine. Russia is long overdue to put up or shut up, and they're lucky their capital isn't a smoldering crater with how hard they constantly push the envelope. Fuck Russia, trăiască Basarabia.

Yeah it's not a Bieber unless it swoops to one side. This is just the default haircut of the 2000s lol

Not in South FL. Our trains have designated bike racks on the interior and our busses have bike racks on the front. I take a train to work every day, it's really nice.

Yeah that's what's so strange, they act like we believe in the propaganda. It's like they completely forget that a lot of us were fighting this battle 25 years ago and fucking lost. The people who were chest thumping now are the same ones who were chest thumping for authoritarianism 25 years ago. Any time I see some idiot European post "Americans, I thought you..." it's a dead giveaway that their stupid ass didn't pay attention to the post 2001 fall of democracy. This didn't just happen overnight....
