So 90s

Let me ask the Galactics real quick…

Robin Williams says, “in your heart there lives 90 some odd children.”

That was so 2016. We are all about full on fascism now.

Well, he gave his best shot. Next time he might try a more rigorous vetting system rather than just picking the most popular one in his home town.

Yes

By expression

Have you ever been read?

Sounds like early internet stuff.

Don’t be sad. It wants out, thoughts are mostly harmless.

Look at fancy pants over here, “my inside thoughts are so special I better not let them out.”

Or

“Oo I dont want to burden people with the mastications of my mental process”

Im just poking fun, btw.

He said smart, that discludes any conservatives.

Ill take it over this shit.

Authoritarians create crisis then claim power. It doesnt matter if everyone’s needs are being met. They will create chaos and then become the savior, being, “the only one who can fix it” ignoring the fact they created the problem in the first place.

Alright, thats true.

Conservatives are the most morally bankrupt of them all. Don’t let them trick you into believing they dont know civics. They know, and actively subvert it. At the end of the day regressives regress all the way down to authoritarians. Authoritarians derive morality from within themselves. So its basically Calvin ball but they want you to think its liberty.

Compromise is fine. Im talking about gridlock.

If you think they are equivalent, thats fine. I dont agree.

Im not looking for a fight, so no worries.

I feel like its really easy to poke holes in anarchy but maybe we should just try to be good people so that the state is rendered useless.

And who keeps the warlords at bay?

In that case, get back to work!

Ain’t no good help anywhere these days.

I firmly believe, for every politician, when they reach a certain level, there is a period of discovery. I’d bet money even the ones who join politics with good intentions get to a point in their political career where there are absolutely no good choices .

I know this because I live it in my own life. For the politician, though, they have to settle into it, reject it and defect, or gamble. A good politician, one people mostly admire, is probably just a gambler that won the jackpot. They were in the right place at the right time and pulled the right lever. A bad politician is someone we see as bad only because we see them constantly making safe bets. Like a drunk who spends all day at the horses they bet the 2:1s and try to beat the house.

Its crazy to me that logic, reason, and decency arent very good political tools. They cant sway the masses. They always need to be propped up by some underlying moral structure that no one ever agrees on.

Anyway…
