Fox News won’t bother mentioning this to their viewers.

    They are getting crushed anyway.

    Even without “both sides”, the situation worldwide is fucked. And “neither side” is going to change much. Yes, one is worse, but the better side still offers a bandaid over a gushing wound.

    So I don’t really blame them.

      We just need to help them understand the system better. I voted third-party when was young, and many of my friends abstained. That was due to a lack of education about our government. It’s not about swaying them to vote one way or the other, but just to help them understand how our system functions. After that, if they want to vote for Trump with conviction, so be it. At least it’ll be an informed decision.

        I will say it: fuck the system.

        The sooner it’s gone, the better.

        It won’t be pretty, but this isn’t leading us to paradise either, we are killing the planet and can’t even take the foot off the gas.

        We need a hard reset, and it’s coming. In the best scenario, the system is taken down before the enviromental collapse.
