I've had my share of disappointment and anger with Dems and Biden this year, but this is a good reminder of why I would never under any circumstance vote Republican, or even abstain.

Democrats are inept, weak, and unwilling to do what is neceesary.

Republicans are villanous and cruel. 

Both suck but at least one of them has their heart in the right place even if they're too inept to actually pull off the things they want to. At least the dems aren't actively trying to hurt people or remove freedoms all while pushing fake science to justify bigotry. 

Do not blame the politicians, they are just reflection of the people who vote for them.  If Dems politicians are weak, then the Dem voters are weak.  When all is said and done, if you need a crisis to get out and vote then do not be surprised at the results.

The problem is the election system, which is a duopoly and there's little incentive to work together or compromise and instead have devolved more into a "No, you" where both parties just throw shit at each other.

If there were more parties with any weight then they couldn't risk doing this, as that would burn bridges that you may very well need if you want to get any legislation through.

This is true, but I believe its more to do with the current people who have been consistently voted into office then the duopoly of the current system.  I will admit if we had more viable options then things would hopefully balance out more but it would take a continental shift in US politics for another party to rise up with enough votes to secure major wins on the national level.

But I'm not a left because I hate abortion I don't wanna control and say what a woman can and should do, they can do whatever they want just remember when having sex put on a condom or take birth control pills we still in 2022 and my sister who takes birth control pills is way smarter than most woman who just don't educate themselfs in taking birth control pills. No I'm not pro life nor Pro Choice I reiterate woman can do whatever they want just make sure to put on a condom is that so hard what's the difference with condom on or off? and if you're sure like my sister take a birth controll pill the best ones .It angers me when people use their index finger and make fun of asians hate those type of people saw few of them on tiktok to degrade asians.Also I hate pedophilia in USA. Also support those with mental/Physical disability. I am 90%vegeterian barely eat meat I mostly eat salad and little meat.


In other words, even though you don't like abortion, you believe they should have the choice to get one if they feel they need it. That's what being "pro-choice" is. You should probably also know that one of the other civil rights court rulings that could potentially be challenged using the same reasoning as Roe v. Wade is Griswold v. Connecticut, a 1965 ruling which held that state and federal laws criminalizing the use of contraceptives were unconstitutional based on the right to privacy of married couples.

I wonder how the southern states would feel if there was a black movement promoting something like 'without abortions we'll go Quiverfull, and we'll also buy lots and lots of guns'.

They would probably find a way to go back to segregationist gun laws and similar regulations to impede any black movements from getting too strong.



Impassioned response to how pathetic both the Republicans and Democrats are in the US

It's just terrible how far the US is descending, people in other Western Democracies are just shaking their heads in disbelief at the path the US keeps taking

Naw, only Americans believe that other countries cares about their politics as much as they do.  Most do not care what the US does as long as it doesn't effect them.

Bit of advice: stop rotting your brain with tabloid YouTube channels.

Next time you might have something more relevant to say than “Holy fucking shit! The sky is falling: a YouTube channel shouts about political parties in the US!”



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
