Only for the first time, apparently. Then that amount of months turns into a recurring subscription. (Also, the recurring subscription tab is kinda hidden in Steam. I'm just gonna assume that is no accident. :colbert:)

The experience over the years
of nothing getting better
only worse.

quote:

As some liberals never tire of pointing out, Hillary Clinton won the popular vote. Trump’s victory did not, on the level of the American public itself, mark a sudden swing to the right. Republicans voted for their candidate, just as they always do. In fact, Trump received fewer votes than Mitt Romney had four years earlier. Trump won, and Clinton lost, because the people Democrats usually count on failed to vote for them.

They didn’t vote because the Democrats didn’t really have anything to offer: Clinton’s platform was maniacally sane and aggressively centrist, insisting against all the evidence that America was already great, that all it needed to do was to stay on its current course towards the distant cliffs.

It was pitched to the “moderate Republican”, a chimerical creature living somewhere in Arlington, Virginia, some respectable bore in a two-storey house, reading the papers but mostly indifferent to the suffering outside its walls. It didn’t work. Those people all still voted for Trump. All it did was alienate the working-class people of all races screaming for something different.

It’s common for people to put the blame on the non-voters here. They shirked their duty: to vote for the status quo, even if it’s slowly killing them. This complaint is usually unpleasantly whiny. The fact that these people feel entitled to make it points to exactly why they keep on losing.

a few pages back someone else tried countering my assertion that one reason sanders didn't do well with black voters in south carolina was because they had no idea who he was by posting a poll from a week or so prior to the primary where a third of black voters didn't know who he was

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.
