Fuck this guy. Fuck his friends, fuck all of his family members who haven't disowned him yet, fuck anybody who looks like him. Fuck everything about him.
This piece of shit voted for this, and now is upset simply because his livelihood is affected. No lessons were learnt. No lessons will ever be learned. He is but a symptom of the cancerous rot at the core of our so-called Democracy.
Edit: Fuck any fucking cowards who downvote this without providing a response as to why they disagree.
Your blame is misplaced. You appear think this is the fault of random people who wear different color hats instead of the result of decades of effort by some of the richest people in our society to fundamentally weaken democracy and to create uneducated people that can be manipulated.
You're blaming the other members of your class that are the victims of decades of educational failure and indoctrination instead of the people who knowingly implemented those policies looking for this specific result.
It's a narrow minded and short-sighted way of looking at things; and, in addition, your tribalistic rhetoric only serves to increase the division among the working class further aiding the people who seek to profit from this division.
It's one thing to be frustrated, but ignorance is how we got here and we downvote you because we don't need more ignorance even if it's coming from someone wearing a blue hat instead of a red one.
Nah, you are just trying to shift the responsibility. If my brain gets washed with indoctrination, it is my responsibility. You want what, just go "these millions of human individuals actually supporting evil bastards are innocent and ignorant, only those bastards are to blame"? Fuck this shit, this is not how it works
those who fail to understand history are doomed to repeat it.
And the soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts. Are we now playing "quote some nonsense"?
no we arent. if thats all you took from that, youre not capable of the critical thinking required to understand how we got here. i hope someday you can. good luck.
Bravo. Such profound conversation. Go pet yourself on the back
