It’s wild. Voter turnout for both parties in 2024 was only 66.5% of the entire population and both halves of that voted for one side or the other. That means that only 1/3rd of the country voted for the current governing body of the entire country. We didn’t ask for this but we also didn’t stop it from happening. VOTE. Please! It really does count.

I saw a post saying “No need to get political, we should support the troops”, as a response to someone criticizing this administration for sending people over there.

Went from 2.40 to 3.70 in a WEEK 50% increase as a direct result of this war and it’s crickets. After years of Biden “I did this” stickers

Waiting patiently for republican politicians to tell us that gas prices aren’t actually rising, and it’s a liberal attack to say otherwise

I tell my students, even if you’re not doing politics, politics will be done to you, so best pay a little attention.

And they will blame the “dems” because sound bites are easy. Essentially why we are why we are.

In my country fuel prices change on the first Wednesday of the month. They change overnight in the US?

I’m trying to sell my car. It has a half a tank of premium. I think if I hold on to it I might sell it for twice the price of the car cuz someone will want the gas.

“I really don’t like punk music. It’s just so political nowadays. Why can’t we just go back to the days of Dead Kennedys or Rage Against the machine? I just hate hearing about politics all the time. Anyway, war against brown people in a separate country is a good thing and I don’t care how much gas skyrockets or how many retaliatory attacks we get. This is the US of A, the land of the free, and we are immune to the consequences of our government’s actions. Love it or leave it.”

I swear, three months ago, gas in my area was under $3.60- now I just paid $4.57 when I filled up an hour ago. Fuck, it was literally sixteen cents cheaper two days ago! This is fucking insanity, and these freaks will never stop until they feel like their egos have been properly coddled.
