Like I said- on a long enough timeline you will inevitably become that which you hate. I don't make the rules- I'm just your friendly neighborhood intermediary and we're on that timeline right now.

@ZeroSum06

you're not a felon until you're sentenced.

@spacemanspiff whatever the cope is these may be the two biggest scumbag candidates the uniparty has ever offered

sky-rider of the spaceways

@ZeroSum06

you may not like him, and that's your right, but facts are facts.

@spacemanspiff Like how he shutdown the country over the flu? Father of the jab? Didn't lock her up? Debased the currency? Enacted anti-2A laws with bump stock ban & ERPOs? Larry Fink's & Netanyahu's cuck? Those are some killer facts.

@ZeroSum06

I'd be glad to unpack any of those with you.

but he's not a felon.

@spacemanspiff Unpack the currency debasement....

@ZeroSum06

so I'll first admit that you chose the topic on which I'm probably most in agreement with you.

it blows my mind that we're borrowing to cover INTEREST payments on the same damn debt. if it wasn't hopeless when he arrived, it sure was when he left.

I would advise an individual in that situation to make painful, sweeping changes.

I'm sympathetic to the argument that judges/unions won't allow gutting of government, BUT he didn't even give it lip service, let alone try.

he’s to the left of Bill Clinton on most issues

@s2208 @ZeroSum06

with the overton window having been gang-raped to the left, can we realistically expect to elect a president who isn't? 1992 clinton would be mocked today by the left. even JFK would be center-right. insert obligatory back and to the left joke.

@spacemanspiff @s2208

TLDR there's no voting out of this mess.

@ZeroSum06 @s2208

I agree. my Trump vote is me pulling the emergency brake on a runaway train with everything I have.

we can allude to alternatives to voting all we want, but between people who have too much to lose, are marshmallowy soft, dependent on the government, etc., that's not going to happen without some black swan event.

and at this point I think it's equally or more likely to accelerate the descent into serfdom, not reverse it.

@spacemanspiff @s2208

So basically voting is a shaming ritual.

@spacemanspiff @ZeroSum06 @s2208 I just don't understand the whole this is gay I'm staying home crowd. Reality is it is going to be Trump or Kamala. If you don't see the lesser of two evils I cannot help you. I believe if the Communist win we could see breadlines and starvation in our lifetime.
the lesser of two evils is not to endorse the system.

@DC5FAN @s2208 @spacemanspiff

Fear porn 😆 that's just as possible in either direction and the LeSsEr eViL is still evil

"I'm voting for the child molester because I just don't think I am quite ready for a child molester who also eats cats to be President just yet."

@CosmonautKatyusha @s2208 @spacemanspiff @DC5FAN

For some residents of Springfield, OH the cat eating is not a deal-breaker 😆
