PS.

I would for vote Kamala. I would vote for a cactus with sunglasses if it had the Democratic nomination. You would do yourself well to consider anything that is weaking the resolve of the anti-trump sentiment straight poison to your brain. We have only one job this novemeber and that is to stop trump. The Supreme Court has given him the status of king. Quit acting like your vote is sacred and start realizing your vote is your final cry before your rights are forfeited.

Context. We are talking about a US presidential candidate.

Because of the military industrial complex there are only two types of US presidential candidates.

Ones who have contributed to some form of genocide around the world

And

Ones who have yet to contribute to some form of genocide around the world

this is exactly what makes it not meh, any other country would be a brutal militaristic dictatorship.

See the "other country" part of your response. That's where context comes in.

You're right, in the most basic, duh, observational type way, the US Government is toxic to the core.

If that's validating to you, and you think we need to linger on it, you're not really ready for the discussion you are currently taking part of.

I'd like to go back in time and live there with you, with all my heart. I really can't though. So, please stay where you're at. When this goes up, fork in electrical socket sytle, we will need you.

way to write a lot of things without really saying anything.

i'm still a bit surprised that "genocide is not just meh" has elicited such a controversial response here.

That's because you don't understand subtext.
