Flesh Forge posted:Seriously, every motherfucker needs to vote. VOTE, SHITBIRDS n the USA voting is meaningless and will continue to be so long as our politicians are not held accountable for promises made during a campaign and as long as their only focus continues to be making more money and getting re-elected (possibly banging kids). the major platform of both parties is by and large: "we will protect you from the other half of the government" which is a ridiculous way for any governing body to work and has lead to decades of stalled half-measure policy that at best helps no one and at worst is actively harmful to the country as a whole. meanwhile the third parties are considered havens for fringe lunatics and condescended to or ignored by the political mainstream and by extension the general public. even if the greens or the libertarians were somehow able to get 20+% of the vote their thought would not affect discourse in any meaningful way other than to provide ammunition to people saying "those who vote third party are actively sabotaging those in the center with similar goals and doing so is equivalent to throwing away your vote." Donald Trump points to the Vote when he's seeking validation that he's doing a good job at being President despite the reality that he's doing a terrible job and the people who voted for him contain a large portion of Americans who were tricked into voting against their own interests and freely admit this. the Democrats use the exact same tactics when they point to Clinton winning the popular vote in order to rally their base, raise funds and garner more votes (again, despite the fact that they too are subservient to the military industrial complex and vote for more wars and prisons and benefits for corporations all while appropriating popular progressive movements). even though you're voting against Trump in voting for Zuckerberg or against Clinton in voting for Trump they take it as an endorsement of themselves as people, their party and all their weird philosophies. congressional approval is at 20% though all of those people were voted in at some point, because although when you vote for your congressperson or senator it feels like you're voting for a person really you're voting for the Party and because at this point in time the two parties are basically indistinguishable (one slightly more malicious but equally incompetent), voting for the Party is voting for all of the government's actions, the majority of which are bad in addition, rock the vote is very bad please, do not vote except locally

As distances vanish and the people can flow freely from place to place, society will cross a psychological specific heat boundary and enter a new state. No longer a solid, we have become as piss and will expand to fill all available space. And like all piss, we shall not be easily contained.

I just now saw the video of the Bastille Day performance of the Daft Punk medley, and I had a considerable chuckle that el Presidente Don was doing the "bobbing while clapping" thing that Kim Jong "The Chubby" Un does when he claps at the parade performances. Maybe he's Juche Donnie now?

stealie72 posted:It awakens with thoughts of buttery males. Saying something is illegal when it's not? And the phrasing seems to be mid-temper tantrum? Has Donnie gotten away from his handlers finally? Yes! He's back! Now it's time to just sit back and wait for the incriminating lols. I've got to have lunch with horribly racist, Trump supporting relatives this afternoon. I can't wait to hear how this Don Jr story is just fake news.

wtf is this poo poo? That's not what a bad approval rating looks like. What is wrong with you America? This is what low approval means:  Even Russia, a honest to god dictatorship, has a bigger range in the state published approval numbers than the US. They are a loving dictatorship, with complete government control of all major media and propaganda broadcasts 24/7

i lol every time trump says "most people don't know" about something that literally everybody knows except him.Raspberry Jam It In Me posted:Even Russia, a honest to god dictatorship, has a bigger range in the state published approval numbers than the US. They are a loving dictatorship, with complete government control of all major media and propaganda broadcasts 24/7 putin's numbers are always in the mid to high 80s despite russia being in the shitter. you have to take into account that somewhere around 30-40 percent of americans have been made drooling morons by fox news and the right wing machine. it's been the explicit strategy of the republican party since the mid 60s to appeal to the base instincts of the worst americans. even nixon and bush barely dropped into the 20s despite being two of the all time worst presidents.

Raspberry Jam It In Me posted:wtf is this poo poo? That's not what a bad approval rating looks like. What is wrong with you America? There are a lot of people who say that Trump has a floor of like 30% of people who would vote for him if he took a poo poo on the desk of the oval office during a speech. I don't doubt that this is probably true, but I think it's literally tied into this binary idea of American politics that disapproval of Trump is somehow a tacit acknowledgement that actually-you-wish-you-voted-for-Hillary - it's not, but you're never gonna convince some people otherwise. It's worth noting that the approval rating for a president in the last 70 years haven't ever dipped below 22%, and that was Truman in the 50s. GWB only got as low as 25%

Jukebox Hero posted:Could trump even benefit from a major terrorist attack under his term at this point? Bush spun 9/11 into gold but trump has the spin skills of a guy with truthful Tourettes His entire candidacy does revolve around terrorism and saying there will be more terrorism, so if it actually did happen again in the US I bet he would be too busy stroking his own dick to have time to muck up the right-wing media empire's spin on it I particularly enjoy how his supporters say "SEE!??" whenever terrorism happens overseas, as though anyone at all was arguing that it wouldn't keep happening
