Hey, I have a question for the ultra-fucking idiots on both sides.
When are you going to realize that it is supposed to be us against them, not us against each other?
We are supposed to support one another and build a country together, not spend every waking hour fighting over partisan bullshit while the same government overlords fuck all of us at every turn. They have been doing a terrible job for decades. Maybe it is time we collectively tell them:
“No. We want new ones. You are all fucking fired.”
Then we impose term limits, cap their pay, prohibit individual stock trading, scrutinize every dollar they receive, and require complete financial and tax transparency from anyone holding federal office.
It will never happen, though, because millions of people have turned partisan obedience into their entire personality. They would rather scream past one another, defend politicians who do not give a shit about them, and blame their neighbors than admit both parties have spent decades protecting the same broken system.
It is fucking pathetic.
This country revolted over taxation without representation. Now we are taxed out the ass, barely represented, and forced to watch politicians shovel the money into waste, vanity projects, corporate favors, and whatever other bullshit benefits everyone except the people paying for it.
But please, keep fighting your neighbor. I’m sure your preferred collection of career politicians will save you any day now.
