Odd, I seem to remember reading the exact same headline in 2020. Perhaps Americans just hate life in America because of 60 years of nonstop existential bullshit.
The downward spiral of education, the constant fight or flight news cycle, and the rise of the unfettered oligarchy have vastly contributed to the current state of America.
I’m reminded nearly every day of Carl Sagan’s “foreboding” quote from “The Demon-Haunted World”.
Nothing will fundamentally change, things will get 10% worse every year and the weapons shipments to the genocidal frontier will continue. Same as it ever was.
So everyone just give up! No point in trying!
I mean I keep saying they should stop sending weapons to Israel but none of my democratic reps will give me the time of day
You just said it will continue no matter what.
Why say anything?
I said “nothing will fundamentally change” ironically paraphrasing Biden because quite a lot changed lol
Also the statement that “the weapons shipments will continue” was more of an observation
That is not all that you said. This is what you said:
Nothing will fundamentally change, things will get 10% worse every year and the weapons shipments to the genocidal frontier will continue. Same as it ever was.
So that was all a joke? Things could fundamentally change and things might not get 10% worse every year?
Otherwise, seems like we all might as well give up.
Look I’m just quoting the president, sorry if Biden makes you so hopeless, that’s why I’m voting PSL
I should have gotten into the bomb making business
Majority of Americans don’t remember struggling to find toilet paper.
Yeah, 4 years ago was the pandemic. Either people can’t do math, can’t remember 4 years ago, or just think “worse” means “bad now”…
