That’s just a fact. The whole US political system should be scrapped and re-developed to make it a democracy.
It would be so cool to be a part of a true democracy.
You guys (Americans) need to stop with the personality cults. It was cute and funny when it was sports stars and actors, but it slipped down the slope when it’s dangerous malignant narcissists like Trump and Musk. The attitude is the same, though, stop glorifying other people so much, whether it’s on the left or right. No amount of democracy will fix that loophole for populists.
I seriously think that all constitutions should have expiry dates.
Do you have any idea how many rich and powerful people would dream of such power vacuums to take advantage of?
This comment reads like it was written by the Koch foundation.
And exactly how peaceful do you think the scrapping of the entire system will be? Will you sign up for the inevitable fight? Or do you just like talking big?
Anyone with a brain understands that would only bring further pain and death.

I would just like to point out that it can still get so, so much worse.
depends on perspective. if you’re a billionaire, it’s right on track.
That’s what the French and Russian aristocrat’s thought right before the French and Russian revolutions.
might be right, might be wrong, but I’ll be fucked if I take my news from a bunch of christofascist vegetables.
THEY DON’T EVEN HAVE ARMS!
They don’t have arms so they can’t self-pleasure (it is a “sin”)
Which means they can only pleasure each other.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
yeah they’re left with mouths, vaginas and anuses AS GOD INTENDED VEG TO BE lol
THEY DON’T EVEN HAVE ARMS!
Confirmed, VeggieTales is anti-2A.
Are we using christofascist as a way to call Christianity fascist now, or did I miss some fascist messaging in VeggieTales?
why not both?
Well, if you wanna call the religion evil, you do you I guess, but at least be accurate about it. The Bible doesn’t condone fascism (in fact, much of the point of the New Testament is that laws are not the way to save people,) so using christofascist as a term to refer to Christianity in general is diluting the definition of fascism. If you wanna use that term to refer to the people who use Christian branding as an excuse to push fascist laws, that’s fine, just don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.
you do you I guess
thank you, I will.
I mean, it’s still in the top 30% of nations to live in. The US is nowhere near its potential for a great place to live but it’s still above average.
I don’t entirely disagree but I think at this advanced stage, it’s largely due to inertia.
I agree, this is just leftover momentum.
Reaganomics was a bullet to this nation’s brain stem. Citizens United was just the capitalists pissing on the long dead corpse for fun.
This place is just the command center for multinational oligarchs to wage war on the rest of humanity to increase short term profit expectations.
Well said there in the back.
advanced stage
this country is still very young
These vegetables have spoiled.
Incorrect.
The US are 50 failed states.
Nah, California could happily carry on by itself.
But every other state despises that we can. It’s a real nut punch when other states are jealous of our GDP.
Yeah right, I’ll only believe this it it comes from the Globgomgabgalab. He is the yeast of thoughts and minds.
Ok, but now who would bring back the Aztec empire?
You helped veggietales. You tripe rotted the brains of many young Americans.
