Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

My voting strategy is super easy. You don't need to keep up with politics or policy. Just see who the KKK is voting for and then vote for the other guy.

As an outsider, it's really depressing to hear you only get two parties to choose from.

We have to keep it forever though, because some dead slave owners thought up the perfect government, apparently.

And we can't change it because "if we don't just keep following the system, we might elect Hitler. Don't vote third party, that's throwing your vote away and then the other guy will win".

There's no winning. Only us constantly losing.
