It's still really, really weird that we don't all talk about Yemen all the time. It's like there's someone in the room being tortured with a blowtorch and we're all just chatting about politics at the dinner table without noticing.

-

I'm sorry your election results are being disputed as fraudulent, America. Have you tried not having the single worst electoral system in the western world?

-

"The media do not decide who's president!"

Uhh, yeah they kinda do. They spent two years sabotaging progressive primary candidates and spent this year manufacturing consent for Biden. They manipulate the thoughts people think about power, and they can install whomever they wish.

-

Republicans spent years calling a fake Russia narrative that posed no risk of removing Trump a "coup." Now Democrats are calling a glorified temper tantrum a "coup." The government that stages the most coups around the world has no idea what they are.

They're not scaring you about a Trump "coup" because there isn't any possibility of that ever happening, they're doing it because it's their last chance to use Trump to psychologically abuse you for clicks.

-

Biden is a hollowed out husk of a man whose insides have been entirely filled with corporate logos.

-

FYI anyone who is already defending Biden and saying you're being too hard on him will be completely useless for the next four to eight years.
