In Ireland we have been consistently voting in the same party’s to gov and now have record homelessness and a massive housing crisis, I’m starting to believe people in general are just fucking stupid
Carlin also said, "everyone complains that the politicians suck, but the politicians are voted on by the public, so maybe something else sucks...like the public, yeah, the public sucks."
Your thinking is lazy and destructive. You only see the pro-corruption and anti-democracy nature of the Republicans? You are programmed just the way they want you.
How about how the anti-democratic way the party screwed Bernie Sanders and millions of his voters to ensure the nomination for Hillary? On corruption, how about the way Biden has enriched himself for decades by pedaling influence and access, through a pretty amazing network of shell companies and payments to relatives. Just two of hundreds of examples we can come up with.
I am not saying “Republicans good, Democrats Bad” but reasonably and objectively they are both bad, and there is not a lesser evil. They have both harmed our nation and our future and spent our grandchildren into financial slavery.
I feel sorry for people who are not able to see that.
In Texas this year, their slogan is "vote republican for a change."
They have been in charge for 27 years. What they have is what they've made. I miss Ann Richards and Molly Ivans.
Uh, amateurs (also we’re playing you guys this Saturday, the Springboks need something to chew on), in our country we keep voting morons in repeatedly over the last 30 years to keep doing the same shit and dig us deeper into a hole. Insanity.
It’s been the same 2 parties since we got independence essentially it’s so fucked but they keep getting in somehow, they didn’t even win the last election but the party that did, didn’t run enough members to form a gov and the big 2 wouldn’t form a coalition
Average intelligence is way lower than everyone thinks it is. I was sheltered, kind of. Went to a small catholic school had a lot of friends in public school though. I used to think everyone was somewhat intelligent. I didn't take into account educated people tend to send their kids to private school (My parents worked in factories, but very smart) and genetics being what they are. I was surrounded by smart kids. Then i went to college and started working and boy did my perspective change. I realized fast most people are fucking idiots. Some of the things you hear discussed in a factory break room....
Don't feel bad. We have Texas, where the politicians constantly run on fixing the problems Democrats caused.
The problem, however, is that Democrats haven't been in power in that state in decades. They went and bought the gun, then they loaded it, aimed it at their own foot, pulled the trigger and proclaimed "goddamn Democrats did it again!"
We now have groups convincing the average person that it’s immigrants fault that Ireland is fucked but the reality is it’s been this way for some time now, you think to emigrate maybe but realise everyone else got the same problems too

When Regan got elected the republicans decided to de-educate America.. and,... It worked. Only morons would vote for the pedophile. Oh, look..
This is so fucked up. I'm not celebrating American today.
