California props up almost every red state that has a problem with them.
You cannot keep making enemies of your own fucking people and expect it to work out.
If you donβt even have a passing understanding of this; youβve failed your civic duty, your families, and yourself

All the while the one state they want to stop sending federal funds to, California?
They produce $5 for every $1 they send to the federal government. They have the 4th largest economy IN THE WORLD. Theyβre the reason red states can posture like they are now.

Want to rally against FEMA? The states who benefit the most from that federal agency are red states; none of which produce more money than they receive.
So, sure; next time Louisiana is decimated, or Florida floods, let their states figure it out themselves; they donβt have the money.

Crops are going to wither away and die in the fields. Not that it matters; America produces livestock corn feed and soybeans in over 50% of our farms.
Most every piece of produce you eat in this country comes from a country the Republicans are trying to isolate us from.

But, please, continue to bitch about DEI and the economy and COVID mask mandates while the party you voted in does nothing but make your own personal experience worse.
Bird flu is going to decimate those eggs you were so concerned about.

Taking your rights as an American citizen for granted and sitting out your civic duty, or choosing not to be informed about your civic duty, is exactly why foreign agents and compromised billionaires were able to erode away at the fabric of this democracy.

And donβt get me started on you Green party voters. If you had even a modicum of sense or personal responsibility youβd have long ago seen that party for exactly what it is;
A paid Russian operation whose sole intention is to siphon off votes from the democrats knowing theyβll never win an election
24.01.2025 12:27 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0
And LET ME BE CLEAR.
If you sat out the vote, voted third party, or blindly followed your spouseβs political leanings; you deserve to receive exactly what you voted for. Not choosing a side is tantamount to choosing to side with the villain, every time.

If I werenβt truly worried for the women in my family; my wife, my daughters, I would be throwing my hat in the ring to serve the people of my state and country; whether they deserve it or not.

My family truly is the only reason I refuse to enter into politics. I try to keep my affiliations and opinions to myself, away from the public eye, but the line has been drawn in the sand. This country is on a collision course with the wrong side is a history book.

Overheard a coworker today say how cool it would be to see Barron Trump run for President next.

The fact that theyβre just going to go ahead and certify this election tomorrow, despite all these SUPER SUSPECT FUCKING STATEMENTS, not to mention the crypto thing he just pulled last week, makes me wonder if there is anything we can even do about this at this point. What a failure of civic duty.

Whatβs the craziest thing you believed as a child?
For me; I always thought there was a physical person who watched every intersection and manually changed the traffic lights from the police station.

Is it me or are movies becoming more and more predicatable?
I feel like foreshadowing used to be a subtle art but lately movies are just using heavy-handed exposition that serves no purpose other than to inform the audience.
Idk maybe Iβm just being snobby.

I honestly cannot stand the virtue-signaling going on and picking to pieces Bidenβs every action, and every action of Democrats in general. Thereβs a reason the party keeps losing and thatβs from within the party itself.
