' ' is enough now, sexuality and gender are human labels for behavior, morphology, and identity that, as far as we can detect, only exists within a thin shell on a tiny rock around an ordinary star in an ordinary galaxy, representing 1.39E-46 percent of the observable universe, at least as far as we currently understand it.

Trump can and will become a totalitarian dictator if he is allowed to regain office. He’s been bragging about it for weeks actually.

UO, Trump really ain’t that bad. I won’t disclose my political beliefs here, but most of people’s opinions of him were formed by the media, not by his actions. He’s really just… not that bad.

I disagree I formed all of my decisions about him based off of his policy. What he actually stood for.

We have some. What we really need is ranked choice voting so we can actually use them. Right now. Joe Biden is sitting somewhere in a bathtub laughing. He doesn’t have to do anything at all. He’s guaranteed to get every democratic vote in the country. Because he’s the only person running. Because every other name on the democratic ballot. Would be a waste of a vote. That would actively be helping Donald Trump get elected.
If we had ranked choice voting. I would vote for a host of people before I had Joe Biden receive the vote.
In a two-party system. You only get two choices. That’s it. The choices we have right now. Are Trump, who literally said “I will to be a dictator day one.”
Or Joe Biden. Who is in my opinion a centrist Republican. Not what I need right now. I need a Democrat.
I hate it. I think we should have choices.

Genesis, you just linked me to a mainstream media video with a misleading headline. I love you, but you’re not making a case against my opinion.

It doesn’t matter the source. It’s directly showing you video of the guy. He tells you what he wants. There’s a quote.
That’s what the video was linked for. You get to see the man say it himself.
It’s a little difficult, finding just the clip of him, saying it. But I can look.
I hated the other videos framing. You don’t need framing for this. You just need to see it for yourself.

I don’t watch the news because it’s stupid and I’ve never voted in any political election ever because politicians suck. I’m apathetic on most every issue and don’t really care about the stupid earth or environment or Covid or whatever, et al ad infinitum.🤷

If there was a vote to not lose democracy. Would you vote for that? It does feel a little pointless sometimes. But I feel like every vote has a chance to make a difference. I need all of us to to vote to get ranked choice voting. Otherwise it’s never gonna happen.

We aren’t a democracy, and we aren’t in danger of losing our republic. That is something only perpetuated by politicians trying to scare you into voting a certain way and the media that backs them.

I agree with what you're saying, but Trump is one of the sleazeball politicians you're talking about, is not against lying about his motives to get his way and was a pretty terrible president when it comes down to it even if you ignore the sensationalism that came along with it.
I gave him the benefit of the doubt for about 4 minutes into his presidency until he started appointing all the types of people he said he wouldn't to his cabinet.

I try to largely ignore It, but social media/news feeds me more content about American politics than of my own country From the outside, it seems like the whole thing has been made to be larger than life and very divisive. I hope that the media just makes this divide out to be worse than it really is in daily life.
The content I’m fed by the algorithm is definitely super biased to what it thinks will align with my beliefs. It’s actually scary that social media has subconsciously swayed my opinions on US politics, a topic which I have a very limited understanding of and don’t actually care to get myself emotionally invested in.

It used to be a lot less divisive. Donald Trump literally turned Democrats into the enemy in a war being waged against him. Now Republicans cannot stand Democrats. And vice versa.

Yeah I mean that’s pretty stock standard for politicians. I’m not making a positive or negative judgement claim specifically about him, I’m just saying he’s not what the media portrays him as. It wasn’t bad in the way the mainstream media managed to convince a bunch of people he was. If you think he’s a bad president then that’s fine. The royal “you,” not you specifically. I’m just saying, when I see people repeat blatantly false things they heard from the news like “we’re in danger of losing our democracy” or the “very fine people” bullshit it’s really indicative of how easily people are fooled.
