*sigh*
What to do? Except just get drunk and hope for better times, of course.
Sadly, I can't be in the top 5 myself. Calling almost all members on the site a douche kinda makes me one myself.

I guess you can look at history, particularly the 1930s, and see where we all could be heading. Look at the parallels (1930s- Jews, 2010s- Mexicans)The only difference now is everybody has nukes.

And we have a leader(choke) who's playing footsies with Russia. Reagan must be vomiting in his grave.

Well, it was civil in the eighties and especially the seventies when compared with today. At least the barbs against Reagan and Carter weren't personally motivated.

I feel like you basically have a 10x worse situation than what's starting to become more and more apparent here in DK: That people are divided about the choice of right or left, while in reality, all of the politicians betray the people and are our enemies. We should all band together in protest against an establishment that increasingly is not in the employ of the people, but of the elite.

Break down and vote third party. Both major parties have betrayed us. So called Democrats need to give up the ghost and join the Progressive movement while true Conservatives need to form their own party or maybe modify the Libertarians ( a true Conservative is a Libertarian at heart). What a wonderful world it could be with the Libertarians vs, the Greens instead of the Republicans vs. the Democrats. |
