Lol Beto, poor sap couldn't beat el rato and in his pathetic attempt to stand out at the presidential debates he gave the perfect 5 second soundbite for the opposition to play against him over and over. It amuses me that he thinks he has a chance.

We brought this hell on ourselves, and we even cheered it on as it was happening.

Off the scale in the upper left quadrant no party for me, sad

It's the state's fault that me and my fuck buddy fucked even though we don't want kids with each other and it wasn't even done in accordance with 'the schedule'! God damn party of death I tell you!

Distrust in the government & media arises from the government & media constantly demonstrating that they are unworthy of trust. Of course the dim lightbulbs who can't perceive that the corruption is near-universal believe that the people who tell them the things they personally want to hear are "different".

Not a waste! You've got to slap these colonials around every now and then to keep em in line

You think the catholic hierarchs who live in opulence and now engage in cheap political theater after how many years of not lifting a finger about so many other issues are sincere? Or the career politician, literally the worldliest & most dishonest type of man that there is? Lmao do not clutch your pearls for these degenerate fossils, please

A bunch of old fags that are insincere about their religion threaten to exclude some other old fart who is insincere about his religion. Why is this news? Who cares? I'm sure that Joe Biden cares bigly about the wine & wafer.. How does one create laws without 'legislating morality'? What do you think the law is?

Mitt Romney fleeing in terror from an unruly mob is funny to me.

You have no idea what you're talking about. We don't even have to go abroad to find counterexamples, we can look at the history of this very country starting with its founding.

Based!

They lost their way because the people that rule over them have completely lost THEIR way. They desperately latched on to someone they (incorrectly) perceived to be an outsider because they (correctly) perceived that the insiders were worthless. The politicians and media whores can cry as many crocodile tears about our precious democracy as they want- ultimately it is their own shitty behavior that has led to all of this

protip if you have to copepost and make excuses for a new hire it's probably not a good hire, the last 2 hires should have made this abundantly clear

Don't mistake a lack of caring about muh gdp, muh stock market growth, muh cheap labor, or any of the other materialistic money-worshipping shit that our entire society is centered around for a lack of understanding.

What's the difference?

Bummer.

The only thing I'm shooting up is cold hard cynical truth laced with the blackest pessimism my friend

Sadly no just a temporary one. Our empire is going to implode either way

Except the 'sane conversation' has been going on for 50 years and it's brought us only limp-dicked half measures that have not helped or in many cases have made things worse. There is 1 and only 1 solution: find and expel the illegals already here, and eliminate the incentives that drive further illegal immigration. And the sad fact is that almost NO ONE (including Trump) stands ready to have the conversation about getting this done. The people in power won't have it because it goes against their interest (staying in power). The hoi polloi won't have it because they are either too apathetic to care, too stupid to recognize the seriousness of the problem, or too hamstrung by womanish sentimentality to do what is necessary.

When was this? XIX Century?

Sure do. Doesn't even come close to the stupidity of 16.

"Do you remember how stupid you and all of your friends were when you were 16?" You know it's a good idea when one simple question completely fucking sinks it.

Just like with episode 911 I thought Bravo dragged this one down

How can 'everything [in politics] is rigged' ring untrue to someone that believes Donald Trump is only president because russia made it so through the almighty power of emails and facebook posts? If it is indeed so simple to rig an election as that, how can there ever be an unrigged election in the United States again? As for fighting, by what means and to what end should we fight? Vote? Vote for what? Kang vs. Kodos, which is better and why? There is only 1 party running the show in Washington i.e. the party of the Central State, the party of Plutocracy, the party of Nihilism, the party of Empire.. OK that last name actually makes it sound pretty cool. But voting will not remove them. We are far too comfortable for revolution to be an option, and even if we weren't what would revolution give us but something worse (look at the average modern day revolutionary to confirm this)? What is the answer? I do not want to submit, but I see no sensical avenue for fighting. As for there being no truth that is the prevailing view in our society, but it is not mine. The problem is that barely anyone in politics or the mass media gives a fig about articulating truth or pondering what it might be! Why tell a hurtful truth when a fashionable lie will do?
