You can, and you should. He's a fucking prick. A fair and just world requires work and attention. So he can't be arsed, well fuck him. I hope he chokes on it.

You're probably right, which means we'll be doing this song and dance for decades to come.

I don't blame you for your anger, either. I share it. I think this guy is a fucking moron for not paying attention. But you can't blame him for not paying attention, since politics has become entertainment, is nauseating, and both parties have essentially abandoned the American people and just play games with their lives in a quest for power. (Even those with honest idealism eventually get whittled down to a nub by the nature of our politics.)

A couple notes to our friends around the world. Ignore at your peril.

• Dont, hitch your wagon to us anymore...politically, culturally, financially. I hope that is clear now.

• Americans will never care about anything past their township. World affairs are irrelevant. Out of sight, out of mind

• There are differing opinions, but I don't see this as anything other than a leaky ship. Steerage is already taking on water, 1st class is starting to deploy their rafts.
  We don't have enough pitch to stop this from happening, but we will be handing out Frappuccinos to numb the pain.

I was thinking earlier today about how Bush’s incompetence in Iraq and after Katrina contributed to the GOP’s devastating 2008 loss but that the biggest factor, by far, was the popping of the housing bubble.

And then, I heard that bitcoin rose above $75,000 today.

You patriotic duty, my friends, is to encourage (or fool) your Trump-loving peers to invest everything they have in cryptocurrency. Tell them to borrow money, if they can. Don’t let them miss this amazing opportunity!

RE: Nazis. Listen, if you don't like Nazi's, you know who REALLY doesn't like Nazis? Russians. The rest of us like to throw that word around casually to describe Trump or whoever we don't like, or even to broadly describe a ruthless ideology or approach, but they had like millions of people killed by Germans in WWII, so that really resonates. It's solid rabblerousing slander. I'm sure the Azov brigade or whoever also had that in mind when they're mucking about with their civil war and wanting to scare Russians....and now that they want to legitimize their organization, that association becomes a liability. Anyway the whole thing is a bit of fluff all around.

yeah sorry for wanting people who ran openly on a campaign of genocide and who in their rallies and churches called on the extermination of people like me and my family, and who are now going to use their power to accomplish those goals, to die. Guess that makes me “thanos”.
Fuck off

look i didn't ask you to leave. i know you're not going to actually carry out those threats you keep repeating in black and white. but speedie is right. not everyone will see it that way. i for one am not concerned about the feds. i'm more concerned about you. you are not helpless. you have a choice to live a healthy life. just like we all do. death is not the answer.

this may be the answer.

Point taken, but the GOP has been screaming far, far worse about trans people on national tv this entire fucking election cycle and I’m tired of not seeing meaningful pushback. I’m tired of having to fear for my life and the lives of my loved ones while they get to say this shit and happily go on about their day. If there’s no consequences they are never going to stop

I think our position in the world stage is about to completely change, that is we're going to be stepping down or at least mostly ignored.

Yes you can and yes, you should.

I mean, if you're happy with the outcome of not doing then sure, you do you.

Ok, so let me ask you this....what do you make of all the EU leaders lining up to pucker up and kiss Trumps ass now? Do you think your elected leaders have any more conviction than the revenge of Joe Sixpack? Because, from my viewpoint at least our excuse is he's OUR idiot, but you've intentionally welcomed him into your orbit. Hope you're paying your NATO dues.
