Cute comment, but the nerd in me needs you to provide a sauce for making a statement like that. You can’t extrapolate evolution like that, brah
Cool meme but the nerd in me needs to point out that carcinisation is seen in non-crab crustaceans, not all animals in general

If this happened in a video game, this is how you’d end up in a bizzaro situation where you’d have Russian bases in Mexico. Trump has bad advisors.
They looked at the Saudis and got jealous of the Saudi way of life.
True, say what you want about Trump but he perfectly captures the hearts and minds of the people voting for him. It’s all passion and gut instinct, the Dems get too cerebral.
Next time there should be a populist movement to write in a progressive candidate. Why couldn’t a populist candidate overrun the DNC like Trump did with the RNC?
Any bets on how far US will fall in global rankings? I am guessing maybe two or three places in the next five years
Why do some people think that smart immigrants would want to come to the US if the general population is hard to deal with? What part of quality of life do they not understand?
Okay, let’s take some prosaic examples.
— H1-B visa man goes to a restaurant. Restaurant staff are racists, QOL degrades, H1-B visa man rethinks staying long term in the U.S.
— H1-B visa man enrolls children in private school. Private school staff is religious fundies, and education at a public level would be cheaper and better in another country. QOL degrades, H1-B visa man decides to move from the U.S.
For most skilled immigrants the calculus is based around money and what they get out of it, you shouldn’t expect there’s any intrinsic worth to staying in the U.S. if standards are shit and qualify of life degrades.
So in simple terms, you’ll have dumber people on average in house and smarter people on average in other countries.
Just launch me into the sun, problem solved
Good luck, that’s stressful. Hope it gets better!

That’s the intent, Republicans have never liked the U.S. or anything it stands for, they’re only self-interested
The win wasn’t about any culture related stuff, don’t spread that idea.
People voting republican will always be stupider on average, and they genuinely believed that the tariffs were going to help them.
All of this is related to the economy, which retail execs helped worsen because of price increases. It’s all economic pressures being painted as cultural stuff.
The culture war is a distraction, the only real thing is the class war. Once people have better economic conditions, they’re flexible on sorts of social progress. Look at the Nordic countries ffs.
Countries which want to save themselves from fascism and oligarchs should implement the Nordic model at scale.

Edit to remove judgmental tone
I kinda knew the popular vote thing would correct itself, I think the reason it’s this close at all is because most people don’t pay attention to politics as much as they should
Tbf, the only votes which matter are in the battle ground states. Electoral college induces the sense of apathy and despair in many instances.
