Another successful school shooting today.

[Philthy_Phil]

Congratulations USA!

 

[Philthy_Phil]

The shooter did not act alone. He was aided by the NRA and 49 GOP Senators.

[BabyBoomer50s]

Have they identified the shooter’s pronouns?

 

[Philthy_Phil]

*She

Was she born a woman?

 

[Bray123]

We need to ask the dead shooter what their preferred pronouns are and whether they've ever been a drag performer or worked in a pizza restaurant.

 

[Bray123]

Marjorie Trailer-Trash has it all worked out; it's Biden's fault. Seriously.

Every American should be disgusted with their shit hole of a country.

Your politicians are useless and your police are useless and abusive.

Wake up you sleeping morons and do something about it!

They have to give a shit first. Fuck, we have more than a third of folks who can't be bothered to vote ever. And 2/3rds think that if they vote once every four years then their work is done.

I blame the citizens. The apathetic, uninformed, uninvolved, non-voting citizens.

Can you imagine trying to lose weight if you only hate healthy once every four years? That's how it seems Americans approach politics. One action every four years is plenty! American consumers are getting what they deserve for their inaction. Unfortunately they're taking the rest of us with them.

When people vote for Democrats the Democrats don't deliver for the working class. Stop blaming average citizens with little to no power for the sins of the multi-millionaire politicians and their billionaire donors. The votes that matter are the ones in Congress.

Democratic Leaders’ Craven “Socialism” Vote Is a Symptom of Political Cluelessness​

Democratic Leaders’ Craven “Socialism” Vote Is a Symptom of Political Cluelessness

Some Democrats apparently thought voting for the GOP’s ludicrous anti-socialism resolution would keep them safe from Republican attacks. They’ll find out soon enough how wrong they were.

I've been voting for Democrats since I was old enough to vote. What's the thanks I get? Moral and financial support for right wing assholes like Joe Manchin and the loss of abortion rights. Voting is just a performative ceremony for those who believe Democrats/Republicans work for them instead of the the billionaires who funnel hundreds of millions of dollars to their campaigns.

I completely understand why people don't vote. Stand in line for an hour? in the cold? In the hot sun? For what? For Joe Biden to vow to veto Medicare for All if it comes across his desk? Voting doesn't make a difference in people's lives. That's why they don't bother with it. It's pretty self evident. It's not that they don't care. They know it's a waste of time.

Biden suggests he would veto ‘Medicare for All’ over its price tag​

Former Vice President Joe Biden suggested Monday that he would veto the universal health-care legislation known as “Medicare for All” championed by his primary rival Sen. Bernie Sanders if it were passed after Biden took office.

Same shit, new day.

People don't vote. Period. Less than half of eligible Americans vote actively. More than a third don't vote at all. Less than 1/5th of registered voters show up for primaries.

Most Americans don't vote democrat, and don't vote republican, nor do they vote independent. Most of them don't care.

Do you go to a gym once every four years and expect to turn out like a star athlete? That's how it seems most Americans think our political system works.

Pull your head out. It's not the politicians' fault. It's the American consumers (not citizens, heh) who can't be fucked to do their civic duty.

 

[schism666]

NRA spokesman wayne lapierre has released a statement that all guns involved in today's school shooting have been all found and confirmed safe.

The reason they don't vote because they know the system is rigged. Voting is the civic equivalent to writing a letter to Santa Claus.

To those who say, "We need our guns to protect ourselves from the government,"

I say, "You share that attitude with criminals and terrorists."

dumb analogy. letters still get written to santa and santa still delivers

Fucking dumbest thing. Seriously. When less than half the people vote of course the system is rigged - to the advantage of those who vote in the greatest numbers.

I feel like I'm talking to idiot cult members when it comes to trying to break through this anti voting propaganda brainwashing.

The simple reality is people make time for what matters to them. Voting doesn't matter to more than half of Americans. So they get what the others vote - or as it is - don't vote for.

The dumbest fucking thing is believing that multi-millionaire politicians will start advocating for policies that billionaires and corporations give them literally hundreds of millions of dollars not to enact.

No Matter How You Vote, Politicians Don't Represent You​

One of the most foundational assumptions behind modern democracy is that the elected officials somehow represent the interests of those who elected them.
Perhaps representation in politics is only a fiction, a myth forming part of the folklore of our society. Or perhaps representation must be redefined to fit our politics; perhaps we must simply accept the fact that what we have been calling representative government is in reality just party competition for office.

The Implications of Corporate Political Donations​

Corporate political donations now raise a mix of ethical, legal, and business issues. Donations serve to align political candidates with corporate interests yet also entangle corporations in political affairs. At times, these donations sit in tension with stated corporate values and commitments. For example, how should we respond to corporations that publicly profess support for a woman’s right to access abortion services while cutting checks to politicians and political groups actively working to ban access to abortion services?

How they vote. Heh.

That would imply that they actually DO vote. Which they don't. Because they don't care.

The anti voting brainwashing is strong with you. It's like you want to discourage people to vote. Odd.

Again: when less than half of all eligible voters actually vote then it's no surprise the system doesn't represent them.

Fucking duh.

Billions in ‘dark money’ is influencing US politics. We need disclosure laws​

Heading into the 2022 election, the situation is getting worse. The two parties’ major Senate and House Super Pacs are all being funded by anonymous dark money groups that are not required to disclose their donors.

Most Americans do not feel represented by Democrats or Republicans – survey

As they go to the polls in a historic presidential election, more than six in 10 Americans say neither major political party represents their views any longer, a survey has found.

Dissatisfaction with both Democrats and Republicans has risen sharply since 1990, when less than half held that neither reflected their opinions, according to research by the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI).

All of the school shooters are white psycho's. The Texas tower shooters parents lived a block down the street from me in Fla. He was the first one. Nineteen sixty six I think.

Most Americans don't vote so how could they be represented by any party.

Fucking dumb ass argument you've got there.

You sound oddly like that canthelp idiot when cornered.

More whining...poor you.

Focus on your personal State...then we can talk about how to fix the Country after your state becomes something others desire. Lead by example

Personal insults is a poor substitute for data or facts. Do you have any? I've posted several articles from mainstream news sources confirming my assertions. So far all you've done is posted your hurt feelings about Americans not as gullible and privileged as you are.
