a lot of "woke people" are racist and it's obvious, they pay more attention to these things than anyone else and pat themselves on the back for being a hero every time they speak up in a room full of people who aren't even moved. it's condescending nurturing, saying "god bless you" when they mean "f*ck you" sort of behavior. there's a words or phrase for it that escapes me right now, but 🤷‍♀️ you get the idea.

either way i thought it was already a thing everyone knew about him over the years. racism isn't the actions people take, it's the beliefs and feelings they have. the idea that you can't be racist if you do something kind for someone of a different race is strange, and comes from the depiction of all racism being equivalent to violent crime that's seen frequently in media. it's never the more subtle stuff. most people aren't so terrible by nature they'll act on those thoughts in some aggressive manner, but even in the better actions that core is still there.

Roe was overturned because of the Supreme Court judges who lied and said that it was settled law. Three of those were trump judges.

it doesn't really matter why, the point stands that regardless of who is in the president's chair the opposite of what they promise and what their voters hope for can happen. i don't agree with abortion except when the mother's life is in danger, in cases of rape and minors (though there are issues with both), and when the child is going to have severe health issues so... 🤷‍♀️ do with that what you will. you going "well it's trump's fault" is a prime example of what i was saying. it doesn't matter whose fault it is that it can't be delivered, the point stands that no matter who is voted in the things people vote for and the things that they want are not always going to get done. some things change others stay the same. that's fine, it's normal, but this same thing is being overblown when it's the other side that wins. the everything doesn't just fall apart, it continues towards certain trends, the country didnt implode with trump, it's still here with biden, lot of people's day to day is the same except the ones caught up in the frenzy.

i'm curious though, with the secret service failing terribly at their job and biden's obvious decline would you say we seemed like a strong country that can keep our enemies off our soil? to me we seem incredibly vulnerable with everything added up, including the civil unrest and growing division between people.

It mattered, because of who was there to put them on scotus. It was all a plan. Republicans really ****** us with scotus.

I don’t think we’d be stronger with someone who keeps saying they would let Putin attack NATO countries. Who almost had another country zapping us with a nuclear bomb. Who has also played a good part in causing this civil unrest (partly thanks to the scotus decisions). Who tried to kill a border deal, because he wanted Biden to look bad - and then screams about “illegals” crossing into the country. It’s all about owning the libs, and pushing this **** agenda onto all of us. I don’t trust them at all, to protect this country.

I’ve seen people who were fine with the way Biden has handled Israel/Gaza. They swooned over the unity at a rally. And then laughed at him being attacked over it, by protesters. The fact that he would lose voters. I heard about the budget the pentagon gets, to protect us, and I wondered what freedoms they were going to protect, if certain people get their way. There are states trying to ensure that women won’t be able to cross state lines, to get abortion healthcare. Whether it’s because they want one, or they need one. We voted to get our rights back in mine, and they’re still trying to undo that. If they get everything back under their control nationally, we’re done. I will vote for whoever the democrats nominate, even though they’re now chaos ******** , too. I trust that they know what they’re doing, and aren’t looking to **** us, and the rest of the world.
