It is possible for two people in a situation to both make poor decisions.

Mate, if you think anything I've said is "angry and lashing out," I don't know what to tell you. I'm frustrated sure, but wasn't the one who started to dole out blame. The original comment I responded to was blaming Dems lol.

Still interested in if you think the country will be better under Trump than under Harris.

The point is that if you have one party that won't legalize weed and won't criminalize abortion at the federal level, and you have another party that won't legalize weed but will criminalize abortion at the federal level, the first party is better. Now apply this to other issues. Families will be forcibly separated when Trump begins his mass deportation, Bird Flu will be COVID 2.0 when RFK is in Trump's cabinet, etc.

Everyone on .world and .ml is focused on what the Dems haven't done or won't do. Ok, put that aside for a second. Do you think that Trump is going to put into place any of the policies listed above? Do you think he will be a better president than Kamala Harris would have been?

If the answer to both questions is "no," I truly don't understand the logic in complaining about what Dems didn't do in the last four years. Not voting for Harris because she wasn't left enough is cutting off your nose to spite your own face. The country will be far worse under Trump.

If you answer "yes" to either, then we are too far apart to have any meaningful conversations.

Do not make yourself a target and a danger when the threat against you is just shitty laws that benefit the wealthy.

Bold of you to assume that's the only threat.

Bold of you to assume they will bother looking at the papers.

Council member Mercedes Narcisse, a Brooklyn Democrat who sponsored the legislation, said on Tuesday that the new law ends racial disparities in enforcement, noting that more than 90% of the jaywalking tickets issued last year went to Black and Latino people.

Never heard of Walking While Black? This at least forces police to come up with better excuses.

I'm not worried at all.

Why you gotta put that out into the universe?

Of all the hot takes I've read on the internet today, this is one of them.
