    Fuck the USA government, you mean. I only live here, and all I get to do is choose between the lesser of two evils every 4 years. What a nightmare.

      If you think you only get a choice once every four years, that’s part of the problem. There’s elections every single year, many of which you have more choice and more power over.

      Maybe if people showed up to vote more than once every four years we’d actually see some effective change.

      Well yeah, obviously. If you blamed the entire population for its governments actions then every human alive is guilty.

      Fuck the US government, and everyone who supports their crimes.

        We are, though, if we’re not actively doing our best to stop all this. We’re all at least necessary accomplices.

      All candidates steer clear away from condemning Israel because they know they’ll lose votes if they do. Sounds like this one is on the people.

      You’re a necessary accomplice. Organise. Burn shit up and build better things on top of the ashes.
