      I’m starting to think democracy wasn’t real to begin with.

      America is obviously controlled. Trump isn’t a mastermind… There are obviously greater forces at play. There will be no real change when he’s gone…it’s the same smoke in mirrors, illusions, and manufacture pride and hope I’ve watched my entire life. It’s like it’s theater.

      Personally, I feel naive for thinking any of this isn’t exactly on purpose. Politics and crime are way deeper than trending marketed news used to give an alternative view of reality.

      The fact that America is like this right now, is the fact America has already failed. Hell maybe me wondering if it was ever a true democracy is my psychological denial of its failure… I don’t think a person can be pro democracy and pro American lifestyle at the same time, they don’t seem to be able to coexist.

              You’re so far up your own arse, you can’t even see the difference between light and dark.

              You don’t seem to know what ‘fascism’ even means, so you’re seeing it everywhere.

              Sorry, child, but that word actually means something. Lemme guess, you think ’slavery’ includes wage slaves?

              Such a sad exposition of your lack of education, and an admission you haven’t travelled beyond your nation’s boundaries.

                I guarantee I’m older than you, but that is not relevant. Let me ask you, why is it that dems vote with pubs consistently to reinforce the military budget when we are actively supporting a genocide? Why is it that Schumer wont say shit about Omar being raided? Please tell me you know what I’m talking about.

                  O really? How old are you? Don’t be shy.

                  Your babbling is not helping your case.

                  Tell me, who was the first president you voted for? I’m so tired of ‘centrist’ bullshit.
