    The Dems are doing so little to maintain the political norms of our society that they appear to be ok with them changing. They look like they’re just trying to make sure they each individually get to keep their seat. If that’s in a sham legislature, that’s fine for them. Bribes might be legal soon, so they’re getting a sweet deal.

        You know what, you’ve convinced me. Im gonna go grab a beer and relax. Dems have done everything that can be done. There is no point in trying to prevent a third Trump term. It was gonna happen no matter what anyway.

          If we weren’t watching a replay of the early 1930’s, it would be funny that Democratic ideologues still pretend that Dems are powerless when Donald has had the same amount of power as Biden and Obama for eight months and he’s completely remade American culture and government.

          The problem isn’t power. The problem is Dems simply don’t care as along as their personal wealth continues to increase unimpeded.

            Of course, can’t be that people legitimately disagree with you.

            How do you think the meme got popular enough for you to see it in the first place?

                I again refer you to the votes on the original meme.

                Considering bots are faster than humans, it would imply the initial trend was bot manipulation.

                Or you could just stop blaming bots for your terrible arguments.

                    “could it be my posts are bad and that’s why they are being downvoted and removed?”

                    “No, it’s the bots who are wrong.”
