    It’s hard out here. The Dems are a trashcan fire. The Republicans are the Springfield tire fire. One is better, and could become actually good given time and proper incentive (your comment on FPTP is spot the fuck on). The other one should be shot into space before it causes anymore environmental damage.

    Right now tensions are high because of the upcoming election, extreme polarization, one party doing its damnedest to erase ~7% of the population, and a bunch of concern-trolls (from every authoritarian direction) talking shit. So criticisms of the only party that there’s a hope of salvaging have to be worded carefully because we don’t all know each other or the intentions of the comments.

    Don’t take that as a criticism of you. That’s just the way I see things right now.
