Hey thanks for being pissy, how about some help?
There are many of us who feel like you do, and we’re stuck here. Then you come in and shout “fuck you” in my face because… …I hate it too? Cool, great work - did you make yourself feel better at least?
Yeah, I will shout fuck you to your face, where's your second amendment militias in the face of this governance, where are you crippling the country to rid yourselves of this evil. Not even a general strike. No, you collectively made your beds and now you lie in them. I know all your excuses, people are living paycheck to paycheck and can't afford to strike, that's a you problem, you, again, voted to give corporations the power to fuck your workers, you call Bernie Sanders a socialist while he was probably the only politician in the past few decades who actually gave a shit about the average American. You deserve what you're getting, Sincerely, Someone who's lived through American bombs.
So you didn’t even make yourself feel better.
You want to know where my personal second amendment militias are? What does that even mean, you’re not talking to the news I’m a real fucking person you weirdo. Don’t you fucking think we wish we could fix it?
Happy to hear suggestions - but of course you have nothing to offer but anger. You want to push us into violence, because it’s all you know.
I feel sorry for you, at least we still have hope.
Having to say, "I didn't vote for this" isn't much different than "I was just taking orders". Obviously the extent of the damage being inflicted matters here, but at this point I would suggest you be "All in"!
except for the fact that it's in no way even remotely slightly even a little bit related to the same thing in any way what so fuckin ever. Other than that, those things are identical.
Wow isn’t that the dumbest comment I’ve read today. Great work
Not stupid, just my own belief. Without someone taking responsibility, where do we end up?
Then you clearly haven’t read the books if you’re still wondering. Stay ignorant
It's all I know because that's what America has shown me. I'm not angry, I'm glad you're tasting the shit, your rights are being impeded (much like the rights of all those people who's lives are shot because you prop up dictators for your security). If you think you have hope, the billionaire class will soon teach you there is none. As for violence, you've exported so much of it for so long all over the world it's about time you understood that while you may be far away from the shit you cause, it will eventually get to you. And no need to feel sorry for me, I've been a diaspora my whole life because of you and your Israeli puppet masters it's actually given me a brilliant understanding of several cultures you'll likely never experience. No, America's days of pretend democracy are over and you're finally seeing the face we've always know.
Wow. What a weirdo. Have the day you deserve.
lol
Have the coming few years that you deserve too. Good luck trying to vote in the midterms.
What an absolutely shitty way to be
Call it shitty, call it whatever you want, but my sentiment is echoed in a lot of areas in the world America has fucked over time and again. I used to differentiate between Trumps Maga Evangelicals and the rest of you, but Trump twice is you guys just fucking around. There is very little sympathy for you internationally.
Bigotry is pretty popular, I'm aware. Great job running with that torch. It is extremely shitty.
The state of mind of a bigot; obstinate and unreasoning attachment of one's own belief and opinions, with narrow-minded intolerance of beliefs opposed to them. I'm a leftist believe it or not, I care about people, I believe in equality, all those lovely words you lot use when forcing "democracy" on other countries. But the actions of your government has put my family in direct danger, again, so what I'm portraying isn't bigotry, it's I've had enough of your shit and I hope you get a taste of your own medicine. Countless republican wars waged on the middle east all based on lies and resources that have killed hundred of thousands, directly and indirectly. Welcome to the real world, where people eventually resent you, much like an abusive toxic relationship.
Unless they are American. A lot of us have been opposing half the shit this country does for the past few decades we've been alive. But go on, hate us and blame us too. That's what bigotry is. You already know me because I'm American. Let the hatred flow through you.
And how has your protesting gone, have you held your government (s) accountable. FFS you can't even apprehend pedofiles!! Your entire system is rotten to the core and Trump is just the end result. So yes, some of you are protesting, but that counts for fuck all when your successive governments carry on as usual. AT least Bush made a pretense of WMD? Trump just barks to Israeli commands. You are represented on the world stage by your government, and your government is rotten. It is rigged against the average American and a large chunk of you are stupid enough to fall for the Reaganomics of trickle down, which has given rise to the billionaire class who are now dictating domestic and foreign policy. Take a lesson from Europe and especially the French on how to deal with a hostile government. It's pathetic.
It's pathetically stupid also to conflate a government with its powerless citizens.
Up to a point, after decades of the same, it looks like this is America. Citizens are not powerless, you've been made to believe that by the oligarchs, general strikes should be the norm by now if such a majority of you are against this but instead we have Lindsey Graham bleating on about how much money America will make. The fact that Israel has universal healthcare and you guys don't because "socialism" is very telling considering you're the ones paying for it. I'm sorry but America on the world stage is ALL of you.
There isn't a discussion here. You're a bigot and I've told you that. This is just you trying to justify it, but that cannot happen
And you are an enabler. Thanks to your inability over decades to stop wars decided by a terrorist apartheid state, you have once again allowed the middle east to burn.
bigot
Enabler
