I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

    How are you enjoying the divorce so far? Got what you wanted out of it?

      It wasnt a personal reference. The point I’m making is that it tends to be overwhelmingly bad relationships end in divorce, as they should. It would be awful if people were forced to stay in bad situations like that.

      The democrats have a horrible relationship with their party members, and so many chose divorce, rightly so.

        Yes, I know you still think this is about political parties. It was not then and it certainly is not now. It was about stopping America from becoming the one-party fascist state it has now become.

        You can complain about the Democrats all you want. They are no longer an entity because there is only one legitimate political party in America right now- the one in control of all three branches of government that will never, ever give that up willingly.

        So, again, I hope you got all you wanted out of the divorce.

            Must be nice to have that white, cishet privilege.

            I hope for your sake that you’re Christian too.

                Oh really? Which of the 50 states do you think you’ll be safe in over the next four years unless you’re cishet, white and Christian? Do you really think Trump and his army of cops and enforcers care about state laws? Or any laws?

                  Look it up yourself. Your overreactions are only going to make it harder to convey when something truly awful happens, as well.

      Well the DNC is now forced to either pull their collective head out their ass or destroy themselves in spite. We’ll see how it goes.

        You actually think the Democratic Party will ever have any real power ever again? Or any party other than the Republican Party?

        You actually think the Republican Party will ever willingly give up power?

        You still think these people give a shit about the law?

        Amazing. Just amazing.

            I would like you to find one shred of evidence that I was ever a Democrat or supported their party.

            Then I would like you to explain why you think I give a fuck who’s fault it is at this point.

                Why do people insist on lying to me about me? I don’t get it. Do you think I’ll agree with you that I was once a Democrat just because you declared it?

                    I can tell you don’t much care that you lie about people to their faces.

                    Maybe you should.

          If you’ve given up so completely, why even bother to keep posting? The last thing we need right now is more pointless doomers.

            Why on Earth do you think that acknowledging the reality that America is now a one-party fascist state is giving up? Do you think acknowledging that about the Nazis or the Italians was giving up?

                Well you clearly know Flying Squid better than I do since I had no idea he was a quitter. Please tell me more about Flying Squid.

                    I didn’t confirm anything because I have discovered I know nothing about Flying Squid.

                    What specifically did Flying Squid quit doing? You say he’s a quitter. What did he quit? Please present evidence.

                    Unless, of course, you’ve been lying this whole time. But you wouldn’t be a liar, would you?
