Generally speaking as elections go, it looks like Trump made most of your 50 tribes calm on election day, while Kamala must have made them anxious or afraid or angry or something less than calm. And calm, or calmer, usually wins at the end of election day among the undecided. Our politicians in Canada are always calm across the board.

But your states, or mini-tribes as I like to think of them. Well their chiefs all got together and talked to their people and they decided Kamala just wasn't right.


Why was that? What entertainers did Kamala need to convince? Why did most of the tribes think Kamala would not take care of the other half of the tribes?

Fair enough, but I think we all know if someone in your media is going to use the language "racist, nazi, fascist...." we all know exactly what side of the fence that rhetoric is.


That's the part where you would have to use pure magic to turn apples to oranges.

Hmm...who was it... what's her name... Giffords? I don't recall coverage of anyone cheering her death via assassin. Definitely not as widespread as today, (and still continues btw)


If you can pull up people publicly cheering on her assassination, that would definitely be worth a look. I also don't think anyone called her a fascist, racist, or some other manufactured trope signifying some "existential threat" either. That seems to be a relatively recent thing with your country. It just seems to me that the comparison to Giffords doesn’t really stick, because the scale and tone were nothing like the “cheering section” that exists now. But I suppose with the proper indoctrination, you can turn apples into oranges with a clever mental trick.

Actually, the GOP has descended into Nihilism.



Do you normally copy and paste articles on this site?

I suppose that's the marker of unoriginal thought, along with your unoriginal fetish for cheering on assassinations. I will give you my original take on your bullshit copied article. In that essay, it boldly labels institutions such as government, courts, academia, media as sacred objects. If you question or distrust them, suddenly you’re “descending into nihilism," whatever that garbage spin is supposed to mean.

If taxation was simple theft, it would be far more tolerable than what it actually is, a system of control and oppression. At least with simple theft the evil ends when the theft ends. I would be far more comfortable seeing taxes go straight into the leader's pockets instead of the monsterous machine. At least that way, we could have a chance for mercy.

no, it is worse. 2 wolves and a sheep is a lot more than just taking something. It's a system of eternal oppression.

Like I said, the nut job or the murder does not bother me nearly as much as the socially accepted celebration of killing someone just for saying things you didn't want yourself or others to hear. It's clearly a marker of the decline of civilization and the rise of something much more primal and regressive. Modern feudalism seems to have just about come full circle with the public thirst for bloodsport among the less-than-enlightened parts of society. The death of a one once great culture is more tragic than the loss of one man. You Americans have always had guns since inception, but this relatively new fad of the social acceptance of political murder is terrifying and will have global repercussions for decades as your society falls.

Shoresy

This is what has me so bothered, that some people could be brainwashed so thoroughly as to not just forsake the natural impulse to avoid killing each other, but to actually thrive on the killing. It feels like you Americans are in some sort of blood cult you could never escape.

Taxation is straight-up tyranny of the majority. Asking 2 wolves and a sheep what's for dinner.
