    what difference does it make?

    in iran videos leaked of a cleric abusing ppl sexually. NOTHING happend. and in america trump could rape a child on 9th street and yet the voters, clarence thomas and all the other murican garbage will support/vote trump.

    so why care about this? you are all barking at the wrong tree. the problem is the american and their absurd educational system. the problem is choice between to fucking old people instead of a real democracy. bipartisanship is a scam. but yeah lets celebrate a jab from one of the sons of the lesser evils…great win, great success. murica is retarded.

      So what, we should eat shit and die and suffer and not be excited about things that feel like small victories?

      The pov you’re providing is bleak and grim. We aren’t dumb, we know we’re fucked and our election sucks. We can focus on multiple things at a time and we can laugh at our political idiots while also being mad at them.

        stop pretending to be the good guys. your witchhunt on assange is no better than fucking putin killing navalny. and anyone can make a neverending list of more murica-not-so-good after a second thought.

          This comment right here highlights one of the biggest issues in American politics. The “us vs. them” mentality. In other countries, if you vote for a party, you vote for a party. It seems like in the US, you vote for a party and suddenly you must believe in X, you’re responsible for Y, you’re labelled as a Z, you’re always part of the problem, etc.

          You guys treat politics like fucking sports teams and it’s weird.
