so far the worst thing that's happened is an abortion ban, which is highly unpopular. As far as oppression goes, that's pretty good, not great obviously, but it's not killing people for protesting levels of oppression either so.

not all that anti-democratic

we literally live in a country with a democratic republic system, and multiple levels of government with independence. The worst thing to happen in the last 10 years was trump trying to over throw democracy, which i will remind you, didn't work. Some people might point to kamala harris being on the ticket but that's stupid, you can't expect a primary party vote this close to locking in politicians, kamala was also the VP of the previous admin, so it's not that different, and she also has her name on the super PAC funding as well. There just aren't many options there. And even then, that doesn't prevent you from voting, somehow. You can still vote for kill stein if you like supporting russian agents i guess. Or trump, if you hate democracy i guess. Or just some other dude.

i was complaining about the title and the wording of the title?

lol. we torture minorities in our prisons for being impoverished and refuse to prioritize the value of water over the value of oil executive profits. torturing women for daring to try to be equals is single head on our hydra of exploitative torture. it was 160 years since emancipation last year. there are people alive still who had peopl in their life who were owned.

the worst thing about the last ten years that incetivizes people to rupture the system for profit rather than to address the potential for someone to do that because the people holding power would rather rely on precedent than lose a single iota of power

lol.

i too laugh about torturing people, it's very funny.

i don't know anything about this, any sources for reading?

and refuse to prioritize the value of water over the value of oil executive profits.

i'm not sure what these have to do with each other, this is true for most countries. If you're trying to say that we prioritize profits over secure access to water, i guess that might be true, but one of those is a problem, and another one of those is an economic goal. Those aren't related. Compared to a lot of countries, the US has really good access to clean potable water.

torturing women for daring to try to be equals is single head on our hydra of exploitative torture.

what does this even mean, this isn't english. This is a poor bastardization of english.

it was 160 years since emancipation last year. there are people alive still who had people in their life who were owned.

yeah and it's like 70 years since stalin ruled over the USSR. Cool story bro, should i bring in the nazis also? That was only 80 years ago. Perhaps we should consider maos china, about the same time period 70 or so years ago.

you unironically think abuse of capital is a worse problem than stripping the rights of a countries own people?
