Very very unfortunately, trust and loyalty are a “USE ME” sign painted on one’s back in many parts of the modern world .

“Howdy you all” sounds like someone to sneak one past you, say “howdy yall” or you’ll be telling on yourself

I don’t know if you meant to do this but you actually just hit what the biggest cultural problem we as a species are facing, the current hegemonic hierarchy values competition in place of cooperation/collaboration.

This effectively changes nothing for me, I’m no fan of Harris or Biden, but they ain’t fascists

If you live in the southeast, Midwest, or Texas/Oklahoma I can almost guarantee you the head football coach is the highest paid state employee by a considerable margin.

There’s a level of apathy that has been a part of American politics my entire life, the logic is that all politicians do is make promises that they never fulfill and anything said about or by a candidate really doesn’t matter, and it’s treated as an axiom.

Obamas years in office without the Hope and Change we all desperately wanted when he was first elected cemented this in the minds of my millennial peers and it was already pervasive in the older generations.

Not pinning it all on Biden here but his quote from 2020 “nothing will fundamentally change” is very much what i reckon the average American believes. Very few believe anything good or ill could happen here.

I put a 5 inch blade in a bag I used for work that I totally forgot about, for 2 full years and flew all over the US without anyone calling me on it. I’m glad that TSA provides employment for so many people but they are in fact a joke

I want to believe this, but I won’t until I see evidence of it in elections
