    Or we prioritize other objectives first, like gutting corruption and FINDING THE MISSING BILLIONS OF PENTAGON DOLLARS.

    There’s already a fuck ton of money, it’s just misappropriated.

        Because that would involve actually improving things, instead of spreading disinterest and apathy in change.

        Find me a candidate that’d work toward of these objectives and they’d have my vote, assuming I can stomach the rest of their politics.

        But it seems to me that the greater focus there is on a single matter, the more likely it is to change. And the mildustry complex is probably the greatest threat to the planet right now imho.

          the mildustry complex is the greatest threat to the planet right no imho.

          They’re probably second when it comes to existential threats to life. The greatest threat is big oil.

      Politics is like the bus: it’s not likely to take you exactly where you want to go, but it’ll get you in the area.

      You want to go directly there? You’re gonna have to drive yourself.
