Honestly, I think it'll be worth drilling the fact that it's the Republican Party, not just Trump. Otherwise, folks deep in the cult will just use the current figurehead as a scapegoat for everything wrong with the party without acknowledging that the party itself works against them.

They probably will, anyway, but it's worth a shot.

I mean, yes, I am surprised that they sat on their asses and tacitly chose the even more genocidal candidate.

I get not wanting to make the choice between eating dirt or wet shit, but sitting this one out was just asking for wet shit.

I can't tell if this comment is ignorant or malicious, but I'm not sure if the difference even matters here.

What's the point in playing nice with somebody who won't engage in good faith?

If I'm understanding correctly, I think "ERB" here is referring to "Epic Rap Battles" which would make the "starter" the first one to rap in the relevant video.

Hildryn has always been a frame I want to enjoy. Having such a massive pool of shields that's used as energy is a cool concept, but I've always struggled to feel like I'm making an impact with my abilities, and there are other frames I would rather use as a weapon platform.

I'm still having a great time with it, but I'm a bit werided out that it looks worse on my Xbox than Rise did on my Switch. Some scenes look like they came straight from the Xbox 360/PS3.

I'm happy for those people who have enough privilege to sit this election out; but to even try and imply that the two dominant parties are even similar is an insult when only one of them wants to fucking kill me.

Even if a notable number of people voted 3rd party, they're still going to be treated the same as those who didn't vote at all, because in a practical sense, thats what they are.

What bothers me about the people taking the bit of time and effort to go vote for 3rd parties is that there's really no point to it. Making sure your own vote doesn't matter is insane to me when voting isn't mandatory. They could've just done nothing and achieved the same outcome.

Many of those aforementioned nations aren't exactly still running, though.

It's hard to decide which line was his biggest flub, but I'd have to give it to "I have concepts of a plan."
