Don't blame me, I voted for the other guy. (Politics General)

Anyone else fucking worried about the world’s future?

Between Hitler Putin and Murica’s undemocratic Supreme Court, I feel like we’re about to enter a new dark era…

@CaptainXtra
Hopefully a revolution is more likely.

no thanks dont want another January 6th

Not stopping journalists from advocating for political assassinations

@YourPalContrail
No one wants a revolution, but at this point it seems like the only way to fix the USA.

I disagree. the problem is political polarization A coup d’etat by any side will be seen as illegitimate. we need to have a contry that is centered around core values where we both want the same outcome just disagree on how to do it, and understanding that our political counterparts aren’t evil for disagreeing with you.

Good luck pulling that off when one side has a wing in its party that fundamentally disagrees with the democratic process and refuses to accept election results contrary to their world view.

Blurry as fuck videos of people stuffing ballots into boxes are flooding my Twitter timeline right now.

All retweeted by people I follow.

Unfollowed all those fuckwits.

Burning bridges is fun.

Take a wild guess on the political beliefs of those who are spreading those videos.

I’m not that worried. The far right is a vocal minority.

@YourPalContrail
But… that’s not how things are, though. Many people seem to want evil.

I’m just glad Mariupol held out long enough to deny him anything that could reasonably be called a “victory” on what was undoubtedly supposed to be his special day.

@CaptainXtra
The MAGA Cult?

@CaptainXtra
Dare I ask for context?

@CaptainXtra
The MAGA Culture is deep within.

@Meanlucario
Likely just another instance of alt-right dickheads trying to f### with the election results.

I’m disappointed, but not at all surprised about it.

Title says it all: Republicans aren’t even bothering to lie about it anymore. They are now coming for birth control

Now that Roe’s on the chopping block, the party of Sex Starved Old White Guys are now doing a victory lap and are ready to attack contraceptives. In all states. I remember the usual dodge for Red states banning abortion “Just go to Blue states!”, well other than the fact that at least one Red state wants to make it illegal to do that they the “Party of Small Government” wants to make it illegal in Blue states too.

And not just women birth control, at least one senator even wants to ban condoms. So yeah, Republicans are making it clear: if you have sex, it better end in pregnancy. Casual sex will no longer be legal. And if you get pregnant, you are forced to give birth, whether you want it or not or whether or not it’ll kill you.

Yep. The Gross Old Pedophile party wants a “domestic supply of infants” (sic). Should’ve seen this coming when Tennessee wanted to make child brides legal.

@Dustcan
Is Civil War 2.0 around the corner?

@CaptainXtra
At this point, it’s needed.

@Meanlucario
There is almost no chance that a second Civil War will break out in America.

The last thing America needs right now is for everyone there to go to literal war with themselves.

@Background Pony #1F81
We already are, just using laws instead of guns.

@Dustcan
…

Are you sure the U.S. isn’t a facist country? Because I swear, it’s getting to be more like one by the day.

@Penguin Dragneel
If not, it’s getting there.

No.

@Dustcan
And why is that the case?

@CaptainXtra
It’d be bad for the economy.

(yes that is the serious main reason)

Despite something like Jan 6 proving otherwise (which I will not stop mentioning) I’m naive enough to think that this time still people still believe in the fundamentals of America to just… stop being Americans.
