For a week, it was worth a giggle. A flustered trackside nascar reporter attempting to avoid cursing on the news? That’s hilarious. Like every joke and/or horse, it was rapidly beaten past death. The body still receives unironic thwacks to this day.
Then it was revived as satire and resumed being funny for a fresh week or two. This was over a year ago. The horse is not just dead, it is not even a paste or powder, it has been completely aerosolized in a closed crimson room where people fan it back and forth in remembrance of beating its corpse.
Biden’s the best chance for continued democracy in the US, but I’ve been breathing in Brandon particulate since 2021 and I’m afraid it will give me lung cancer.
The senile man controlled like a puppet by a shadowy cabal is the best chance for democracy. The party with the word democracy in their name is hellbent on appointing them instead of allowing their constituents to choose someone better. They want to force a man who represents a significant chunk of the electorate to be removed from ballots. This is the future of democracy.
You don’t know what “let’s go Brandon” is. It’s not funny because some reporter wanted to avoid cursing on TV. It’s funny because some reporter was trying to hide the utter disdain america has for Joe biden and thought she could think fast and hide it and thought that the audience was too stupid to get it. It’s facetious and has layers. It’s alluding to the idea you can’t candidly speak truth in the US. Its laughing at the media’s attempt to whitewash our politics. And lastly, it means “fuck Joe biden” which at this point almost everyone in the US agrees.
The right doesn’t like him, the left doesn’t like him, the neolibs don’t like him, nobody likes him, but people will vote for him because the elites that rule over us take our options away. “Best chance for democracy” lol Joe biden is proof that democracy is dead in america, he is emblematic of that fact.
Lol wow delusionality to the extreme
Alright what’s your clear headed, correct take?
I mean sure, but there’s nothing you can do about it in the short term besides philosophizing a binary decision. Who’re you voting for?
I get the argument, and it would be disconnected from reality to disagree. “Yeah, the democrats are taking our options away, but what choice do we have?” In the US, it always comes down to 2 people and you pick one even if you don’t like them.
I’m not going to vote. I vote on principle, I believe that voting is giving legitimacy to a democratic system. And this system does not have legitimacy anymore, and probably hasn’t in quite some time. Democracy is dead in america and it’s just a veneer, a show, and I don’t want to grant legitimacy in my mind and heart to a Potemkin democracy. I will not put one ounce of effort legitimizing the lie that I have any representation in this country.
That’s most definitely an option, but it does little good. If you’d like to see yourself represented, I recommend local elections. National elections are only good for stemming the bleeding whereas local can offer a surprisingly vast allotment of improvements. The pacifist’s prayer is worth infinitely less than the chud’s vote.
You write great fan fiction.
