MODERATORS
Thing that experts working in the effected field overwhelmingly predicted would happen, actually happens. Voters stunned.
Well, the direct intent was to create hierarchical misery, all the voters are under the assumption it'll hurt the people that deserve it
The cruelty is the point, as usual. Making the world worse is OK as long as it hurts other Americans I don't like.
If things get worse for them, it'll be better for me!
God can only create so much good stuff, so the less of it others get the more he'll give me.
Voters pleased with the choice they've made because of their insane religious beliefs. This is the leopard eating the other faces.
Texas has a massive voter suppression system in place, so this is a bit short sighted.
It's both. I've spent plenty of time in Texas and trust me, there are more than plenty voters over the moon about this.
Oh, I know. I spent 30 years in that hellhole.
My condolences. I don't like giving away personal info on these sites, but I lived in a similar environment for a roughly similar period of time. I know how draining it can be and I'm glad it sounds like you escaped like I did.
Texas voters? Plenty of them are fine with this. God's will and all.
And voter suppression.
MAGoo logic. Our program is perfect. If there are failures, it's because we didn't work hard enough.
And suppressed voters screaming they can't get their voices heard.
