Were you alive in 2000? Bush & Gore were often parodied as too similar

Also, The End of History

Does this remind anyone else of House of Usher?

Libraries are physical media

Tell me you haven't actually been to a library in the last 15 years without telling me.

Have you not heard of Libby? Of Overdrive? Next thing you're gonna be telling me Libraries aren't a solution because not everyone can use microfiche...

As relevant here as it was there

No one's fucking voting for genocide; not even Biden (whose actions on Gaza are not acceptable) is voting for genocide; say what you want, but he's not telling them to go into Gaza. And the 2024 election is about whether you want America to still be a democracy. A fascist USA helps no one.

Can libraries not get subscriptions to news services for public access?

Could you explain more- so you want a la carte options, like pay on a per-article basis? And to be clear, you know that free high-quality print media has never been a thing historically, right? Like, you never could access all articles from the entire history of the NYTimes on demand for free, that was never a thing. The paper for that day was locked in a metal box you had to pay to open, and all you got to see was half the front page.

Or, you know, support libraries...

he wasn't trump. That's his whole platform, that's it.

Sorry, but this is one of those hyperbolic, uninformed, useless hot takes the Internet LOVES. You can literally look up his platform online, like so many places.

Here's Politifact tracking 99 of his campaign promises.
27 kept 5 compromised 1 broken 31 stalled 34 in the works

I'm actually pretty happy Trump exists.

Good to know you're not one of the many women he's sexually abused. Good to know you're not a pregnant child being forced to give birth to her rapists baby after Roe was overturned. Good to know you're not one of the million+ Americans who've died of the pandemic Trump bungled.

I'm glad you're privileged enough for the Trump administration to not have devastated your well-being.

Fuck accelerationism.

Facing The Consequences of the Bill You Yourself Proposed is good actually, and should apply to both parties, yes.
