Man, it is hard to find a positive outlook headline lately. I wish it was half as depressing as it is.

Just lobotomize yourself then all these headlines will fill you with glee just like the rest of the lobotomites.

I had this thought while at work today. Wondered if I'd be happier, then realized I'd probably just end up homeless, and stuck in and out of prison for the rest of my life because there is no way I could pay for care like a lobotomized Kennedy.

The thing is, your quality of life can be as bad as it wants, but based on my observations of these creatures, they appear to be happier regardless, simply because they believe these things are good. Like eggs may have tripled in price, but they actually seem happier about that than when the prices were lower, simply due to the change in the person in charge. So it appears like you would also be liberated from your quality of life having any tangible effect on your happiness.

Just a reminder: the Nazis went after the "infirm" first.

Why do you expect to be served that when you aren't stopping the rise of fascism

Better get a handle on those Sweden Democrats if you don't want to head the same way the US is.

[–] KeenFlame@feddit.nu 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They are scum but have the decency to pretend not to be nazi

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, so did the Republicans for many years.

[–] KeenFlame@feddit.nu 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, but that's the difference
