Meh, only the Libreoffice kids

The fact that it’s nearly impossible to get liberal policies past a Senate where representation is heavily skewed in favor of Republicans does not equate to a conspiracy that the tiny margins Democrats are still sometimes able to eek out are then intentionally sabotaged. That’s some conspiratorial BS. The simple fact is that Dems are playing a rigged game and always have been. Both-sidesing the parties when one of those parties is full of literal Nazis is simply ignorant and requires a lot of mental gymnastics and outright ignorance to get onboard with.
While I agree with your anger and frustration, in sure you recognize how dangerous of a precedent that would be. Instead, we should be going full RICO on the entire Republican party.
A huge chunk of the elected officials on that side of the aisle are actively working to subvert democracy in the US. Endorsing Trump in an official capacity should absolutely be seen as a participatory activity in that context and those elected officials who have engaged in that should be held to account. The justice department should be looking to use this as a sledgehammer if they want to crush the rampant fascism sweeping the Republicans and their base.
Please, please do this in Pennsylvania. As a “swing state” (Jesus fuck the electoral college has really fucked us) he needs to be removed. Here in Illinois, he’s not going to win here anyway.
Almost?
Sex. I want my company to pay me to sex. I feel like I could totally get behind that. Sexually.
Come on dude this is a family website.
The comment directly below this one reads like propaganda straight from Moscow. I’m very glad to see it down-voted. Blaming blatant authoritarianism and extremely dangerous rhetoric on “old people” seems like a pretty obvious diversion from the actual culprits: the entire Republican party who is sleepwalking into a legit second coup attempt. They’re losing political power and have abandoned the idea of democracy. The fact that they’re unable or unwilling to drown this Nazi rhetoric in the bathtub speaks volumes. They are openly supporting authoritarianism. Not “old people”. Republicans.
