The people who voted for Trump on the assumption that he didn't really mean all the awful things he was promising are about to get a rude awakening.

Sadly, a lot of innocent people are going to suffer for those voters' willful blindness.

megawealth is a curse! you become acutely aware of the needs you have that cannot be satisfied through material means AND you are socially ill-positioned to be in a place where you can experience authentic human connection because everyone around you has every incentive to lie to you!

The decline in trust in the government and institutions is reflected in the fact that freaking Tom Cotton and Mitch McConnell (among other Rs) *agree* with the Biden admin that TikTok threatens our national security but ppl are big mad that they won’t be able to post stupid music videos

seriously. one republican nominee for president got the dukakis treatment and republicans decided democracy was too much and had to go

Ja Rule real quick
