I mean, there’s always options, though if things start getting out of hand I suspect it’ll be narrowed down to some rather extreme options

The true purpose of the system is what it actually does

Once upon a time I’d believe that was all it is/was. I’m convinced now it’s more of an uninformed voter thing. “My dad/family/church/friend votes republican and he’s a good guy. Besides Fox says if the demoncrats win they’ll destroy everything I care about. Sure there’s talk about racism/sexism/etc but I don’t personally see it or have a problem with minorities, LGBTQ, or women, it’s probably just political mudslinging. There’s no way the people I love would support them if they really said those things.”

Fair point

I mean they have the presidency, the house, the Senate, and the supreme court, gonna be difficult to lay the blame.

Right, the single issue voters that picked a color (likely due to family) and kept to it the rest of their lives

I’ve suspected the less sex has more to do with hookup culture being undesirable and lack of face-to-face communication. Not to mention “who can afford kids in this economy?”

Right, it’s no surprise that the lesser educated religious tend to have larger families that go on to vote Republican bc that’s what Jesus would want.

I mean felons can’t vote, own a gun, or work in lots of jobs, I foresee a felon filing suit on job discrimination and winning. If a felon can be president is there really any reason they can’t do anything else?

Lots of first time voters, fingers crossed

This gives me hope. Fuck Paxton

Yah I think I wrote it wrong, but yah, meant having a fact checker is a positive thing.

It’s harder to promote propaganda if people can’t lazily see the leaning & credibility of the website

Knowing dogs, even if they were sleeping they’d be on their feet barking before he could fully get out of bed.

Normal people - I bet my dog accidentally scratch me.

Him- the devil sent his demons to scratch me!

I don’t think it’s that at all, I think all his grandstanding is simply for his followers. He genuinely thinks if he plays the part and enough people believe it, then he can get away with it. Between Jan 6th and how many lawsuits he starts, if he can, he will. Hell, he’d probably attempt to start a civil war to keep himself from serving time, not to mention spreading propaganda of election fraud and numerous lawsuits to delay his losing the election.

I imagine he’s perplexed that we’ve stopped listening and abandoned twitter.

She’s said things that people are quoting?

If only you were the doctor

I think apathh is a huge part of how so many of our politicians get elected. Everyone knows who the top 2 candidates are for president but don’t have a clue when it comes to the local politicians who are directly impacting where they live. So much easier to vote down party lines.

Can we title these as Paxton instead of Texas? Texas is a big place and he’s hated near universally.
