I wonder how things are going in America today...

This is what happens when we let conservatives have any sort of power in society
- any sort of power, they have it ALL now, because not enough Democrats figured it was important enough to simply cast a vote in Novembers election. more arab and latino americans voted for donald trump than have ever voted for any republican candidate before in american history. leftists told anyone that would listen they weren't going to vote for "genocide joe" while marching on every major american city chanting "from the river to the sea", while flooding social media with anti israel and anti democratic party messaging, the result of which was democratic youth vote was the lowest it's ever been in american history, while republican youth vote was the highest it's ever been. with everything on the line democratic youth couldn't find it within themselves to defend the republic, by doing the lowest effort simplest action by casting a ballot in a safe, free, and fair election. donald trump won his second term as president by ~2.3% of the vote.
  
  I just want to clarify that Arab and Latino Americans voting for Trump is marginal and would be insignificant if white voters weren't in the bag for fascism already.
  White women are the only marginalized group that fuck with Republicans in numbers.
  
  I voted for Harris in nov. But you are blaming the people with the least amount of power.
  Democrats could have… you know… appealed to their voters instead of fund and arm a genocide, fund the police more than has ever been done, and ran on racist border fascism. They didn’t appeal to their voters and their voters didn’t show. Harris, Biden and all the people advising them should be the ones we direct our anger at not the voters who didn’t vote for something they weren’t inspired by.
  
  Blaming the voters is most of the reason you're in the position you're in, you do understand that, right?
  
  It's interesting that I see this kind of sentiment, shifting the blame onto everyone who's anti-genocide, mostly from people who were also repeatedly defending if not downplaying Israel's genocide. I wonder how your removed comments in the modlogs look.
  There were many issues with how the Democratic Party ran their campaign.
  Democrats' Working-Class Failures, Analysis Finds, Are 'Why Trump Beat Harris'
  2024 Post-Election Report: A retrospective and longitudinal data analysis on why Trump beat Harris
  The slogan From the River to the Sea is about Palestinian liberation that started in the 60s by the PLO for a democratic secular state, not Genocide. The Syrian leader Hafez al-Assad in 1966 maybe, but he's not Palestinian. While there's been 500+ Instances of Israeli Incitement to Genocide – Continuously Updated, on top of Netanyahu explicitly stating “between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty.”
  
  If they were too insignificant to listen to, they're too insignificant to blame.
  
  Oh yeah I meant more that giving them any sort of power inevitably leads to this
  
  Interestingly the gEnOcIdE posts are way fewer nowadays.
  Don't get me wrong, I think bibi is a war criminal, but there were absolutely very very few debates or discussions, almost only astroturfing hatespeek IMO, basically shut up or you are a "genocider", which doesn't advance anything sane, again IMO.
  
  Better the republicans have the power instead of those fucking shitlibs.
- Gonna get downvoted, but conservative ideals should be present to some minor extent to balance things out. I don't mean modern conservatives or Republicans, but the concept of fiscal conservatism (e.g. preventing waste in the military). I'm not talking about the fIsCaL cOnSeRvAtIsM that current Republicans preach either, like hollowing out social programs to give tax cuts to their buddies. So yeah that's of course not what we have now, but there should be a healthy balance for that kind of thing.
  
  The problem is that what you describe is not conservatism, it's just basic competence in governance. It's an impressive achievement of the radical right that they have managed to get people to conflate the two.
  
  The people who say this tend to forget that if you only take the "good things" from conservatism it ceases to be conservatism. The conservative ideology is garbage and only leads countries to a sort of destructive cannabalism.
  
  Describing the good of the opinions that are more on the right side of the spectrum isn't going to come across as good if you use conservatives to describe it.
  
  You won't get downvoted. Ideally you'd have both parties suck it up and work together and combine ideologies. But.. well you know... Babies

Nervous laughing ..... as the police keep pounding at my door
Yeah, it's going to be hilarious to be fighting in WWIII while everyone tries to convince themselves that it isn't WWIII
- Hopefully it's just Civil War II and not WWIII. The rest of the world doesn't deserve to be dragged into our shit.
  
  Even if it was just contained to US soil we'd still call WWIII like we do with the World Series.
  
  Whether it's because of us or fascism is just trending globally, the rest of the world is already thoroughly dragged into our shit. We're not the only ones having this fight, we're just the most-visible and possibly farthest-along outside of Russia, Turkmenistan, North Korea, etc.
  
  It's Civil War 2: Electric AI killing machine-aloo
  
  It will be WWIII either way. A US civil war would leave a massive power vacuum, and a whole bunch of candidates trying to fill it.
  
  .... like I said WWIII while everyone tries to convince themselves that it isn't WWIII
- FBI OPEN UP!
  
  [breaks down the door] ..... never realizing or admitting that they have the wrong house

- whats this from?
  
  It's a popular meme from this scene in Community.

"How many genders have you had to drink today, sir?"

- Wow, I've never seen a quommstion mark before!

JLD is such a good actor. look at that face. she's hilarious even in stills.
- She turned out great when you consider she got her start as a nepobaby. Her dad was worth 3.6 billion USD in 2006. Don't get me wrong, I love Veep, I couldn't have imagined anyone else in those roles. The Diplomat for comparison does nothing for me, just not fun.
  
  Why is that relevant when talking about her being funny

Man that laughing nervously meme has been getting a LOT of mileage these days lol

2 CH₃NO₂+O₂→2 CO+3H₂O+N₂
- That's not balanced though
  4 CH₃NO₂ + O₂ → 4 CO + 6 H₂O + 2 N₂
  also, why are we burning nitromethane?
  
  burning
  Well thats one word for rapid decomposition.
- You're missing an O somewhere.
  
  It's supposed to be CO2, not CO.

In my country you need to be accused of being a communist in order to be arrested. Well sometimes there were no accusations just arrests, but at least we were an official dictatorship.
Signed: anywhere in South America in the 80s. Thanks ~~Obama~~ McArthur
Epiphany: are climate scientists a tool of communist hoaxes? Dang, you're all getting arrested soon aren't y'all
