MODERATORS
US politics is a political soap opera clown show that has a game show component that puts the global audience at risk of all sorts of dangers and even death.
The US doesn't have politics, it's just a theatrical front for the rich and powerful who actually run the country.
The audience laughs at it with fear because they know it's all fake but can't do anything about it.
The players laugh at it because they know it's fake and they get paid enormous amounts of money to perform
The owners laugh at it because they know it's fake and there's nothing anyone can or is allowed to do anything about it
You're just adding more hyperbolic outrage fuel to the fire. None of this is true because things do change. Apathy is just as bad as ignorance. Repeal Citizens United. Champion ranked choice voting at your local level so we can kick out the extremists that are dead-locking policy.
People who let themselves believe the whole game is rigged are just making an excuse to not have to do the very hard work of maintenance. People who espouse that the game is rigged, and then convince others that all effort is futile are just as bad as Fox News. Man up you bitchy cunts. Get the fuck out there and vote.
