      Your apathy and disillusionment is affecting the rest of the world now.

      Is your system broken? Yes. Could it be fixed through slow progress if people cared enough to vote, it likely could have. Bernie would have tried at least. You’re probably too far gone now for this path, but you can still prevent human rights atrocities by voting, that is still within your power.

        Your belief in lies and propaganda and participation in a system that keeps you doing nothing while you are raped by the wealthy is affecting the rest of the world. Also the bombs you pay for to drop on my family. Maybe you should stand up and do something besides nothing for once in your life, voting this far has gotten the US a fascist country run by the wealthy which is exactly how it was started. I feel bad for you how deeply you fell for lies and stories for children.

            Naw it’s valid anger in response to “surface civility” i see “pretend intellectuals” use when they speak.

            Just… repeating what talking heads say, just deadass parroting some pundit on tv like it’s gospel? Quite rage inducing.

            Combined with lil comments assuming superiority? Haha of course OP got pissed. Arrogant + ignorant is a powerful combination

            Enough about that.

            Let’s talk about you.

            You need to tend your own garden. Fascism is on the rise worldwide, including wherever you are from. Stop wagging your finger and pick up a hoe.

      Democracy has never done anything, not the creation of the Republican party, the abolition of slavery, the 19th amendment, the new deal, or the civil rights act.

      Those were all conspiracies of the elites leadering the population kicking and screaming into modernity.
