    he’s terrified of losing the house and senate in 11 months

    This makes me think you’re a bot shilling hope that isn’t real

      This makes me think you’re a bot shilling apathy to prevent the GOP from losing.

          That’s the message that won the GOP the last election. Are being paid by them, or did you just believe someone else paid by the GOP who told you not to vote?

            I never said don’t vote.

            I said don’t depend on simply voting to fix things.

            Don’t sit around for another year expecting the midterms will fix things.

              Do you think complaining on the internet will fix things?

              Voting is an action people can do. Once people are able to do some form of action, they could be encouraged to further action. Americans are currently below the bar of even voting. You think they’re going to do more than voting if they can’t even do that?

              Y’all are so much in love with the romanticized myth of the American revolution you believe that if you write some pretty words about freedom and equality there will be another “clean revolution” that will solve all of your problems. The reality is that your “founding fathers” were slave masters, their pretty words were hypocrisy meant to fool regular people into fighting and dying so that the wealthy slave masters could get wealthier by killing the indigenous people living to the west and taking their land. People were tortured for any dissent, there were massive numbers of refugees from the US during the revolution because of how oppressive the government was.

              All of your rights actually came from voting, not from the bullshit fairy tale about “founding fathers” they indoctrinated you into believing from a very young age.
