What the fuck are you on? I'm mad at the Dems for refusing to play the game properly and actually gain wins.

Shut the fuck up with your psychobabble.

So Dems don't turnout to vote and this is the Republican propaganda machines fault? The day the Dems actually take accountability for their continual fuckups is the day I might vote for them again.

I was really hoping this sentiment would take hold the first time Trump won and it would awaken people to the boiling pot mass charade we are in.

It did not.

I do not have much hope for this time around.

Name a single election topic you know about that's not US. I'll wait.

Any meme community. Easy example. Are you even trying?

If you remind me later - I have to get ready for work soon - I'll help you if you want. Its fairly easy. Easier than a printer, so you're already qualified lol

"Too much off topic discussion or discussion in one topic that stifles other conversations"

Better?

Exactly this. And if you point it out, you'll get all these reasons why it was impossible for Dems because of X, Y and Z, but deathly silence when it comes to "well but why were the Rs able to accomplish so much"? They're managing to get people into office and do things while the Dems constantly flounder - which leads to even worse election results as constituents lose more faith in their ability to lead.

It's a self fulfilling prophecy at this point. Dems are ineffectual, so they struggle to win elections, so they struggle to have the power to do anything, thus looking like continued failures and ensuring more losses down the line.

The whole party needs to be severely gutted and reborn. Or a third party needs to rise up and start speaking for the average progressive voice that's not being heard anymore.

Be the change you want to see then. You can make that community. I mean this in a supportive way. Go for it!

Interesting how the save now feature was broken until right up until the US election. Makes it easier to edit news articles on the fly without leaving a trail. Could be a motive for who was behind it - but I'm just speculating.

And a huge amount of items are "3D print this". This was disappointing. It's basically just a curated printables list. The stuff listed looked really well designed, but I was hoping for more of a "here's simple machines and tools to build when you don't have access to better equipment"

Actual OP here: Christmas is "put on a performance" fake. It's also many pagan holidays mashed together by the Christians and co-opted when arguably the date of their messiah's birth was in another time of year. It's also getting longer and longer so companies can sell more and more crap that just ends up as waste.

Is Festivus made up? Sure. But it's genuine in it's disdain for what Christmas has become and is a sincere protest. In the words of Frank Costanza: "As I was raining blows down on him, I realized there had to be a better way"
