If we don't vote, it's because...

@Ryderbike lol... that's funny as shit.

@boudinMan Is it? You cult leader has literally built his brand on being a martyr.

@boudinMan funny but true

@gol979 Actually YES IT IS!..Freedoms come with responsibilities attached. The moment the people choose not to accept the responsibility, the freedom is forfeit.. And at that level being American has nothing to do with it. If you accept the safety and services of a community, you do your part when the time comes to support it.. That used to mean standing on the wall with a spear. Now it means voting, paying taxes or turning up for your shift as a nurse in a natural disaster.
There is something nasty creeping into modern society generally that makes up more selfish and willing to allow us to see others suffer as long as we are fine.. Again, thats not American. But the "Real Republicans" are a bl**dy good example of it.😷

@whowasthatmaskedman you voting for these nutjobs who care not 1 jot about you and i will take responsibility for myself. Im not into outsourcing that to clearly insane/corrupt people, institutions and political/corporate parasites

@gol979 The worst thing you can do it not vote.. If you cant find someone to vote for, you can always find someone to vote against. But failing to vote is how this gets out of hand..😷

@turbineman40 California also has a 3.4 Trillion GSP, highest in the US and highest sub national economy in the world. in 2021 California also had a 97 billion dollar surplus in its budget.

@turbineman40 California is far from broke, last year a 97 billion dollar surplus. GSP is over 3.4 Trillion, more than any other sub national economy in the world and far and away the largest economy in the US.
If Red States would become productive and stop mooching off the blue states, Ca wouldn't be in debt at all.

California supports your lazy unproductive ass, you're welcome.

@Ynotisay What's truly astonishing to me is that I can hear it come out of a mouth on TV and then hear it again on social media by nightfall. That's not even enough time for reflection or research.

@Graylight They feed each other. It's like a cancer that just keeps growing. NO basis in reality but that doesn't matter.

@whowasthatmaskedman Eh. What's being discussed now is their failure to act on leads. A criminal conspiracy that does not make. But These are men and women' of Trump's administration; it's not implausible to to think a man trained to give his life for your would be willing to lie a little.

@Graylight Thats quite possible.. And Trump and his people had some years to pick through the Secret Service for the"right people".😷

@AthrillatheHunt Oh Big trouble in 1950 to be gay. I was there then and lived it day by day. Even had a boy in same class as I was he suffered and endured a lot of verbal harassment about being a sweet guy or gay

@turbineman40 I believe it.

@Zaphod42 And in less thoughtful moments, I say the same thing. But a nation crippled is a nation crippled, whether by one party, the other or the sickness or the two. Without a healthy system of governance, we cannot thrive.

@Graylight True, but it’s the very idiots telling them that voting is useless that will get voted out by them not voting. In my mind that should purge out the morons in office telling them not to vote thus fixing the issue

@MarineBob Yeah, Tom Cotton is a congenital liar.

@LvChris Interesting …” partially” behind 9/11? Who complements that to make it whole? Any of our fine, upstanding Presidents and administrations? Many say yes.
