MODERATORS
This is why America deserves everything it voted for this time around.
Conservative / fascist leaders deserve it, the rest of us do not. The kids who were too young to vote, the leftists who fight against fascism, and the workers who don't have the time to follow politics do not deserve any of what is to come.
You had me until that last group.
If you opt out of participating, you deserve whatever happens without you.
We're in this mess arguably because of all the people who chose not to participate.
The left cuts down their candidates and elected officials over any faults, while the right uplifts them regardless of any faults. Is it any surprise the Dems always look bad in comparison to an uninformed voter.
The left has no candidates. The last time centrists didn't get 100% of everything they wanted, they formed a PAC to try to get McCain elected, but they'll certainly get mad at anyone who even considers expecting better.
Is anyone really that uninformed though?
People voted for the racist rapist. Ignorant would be a component
