    That was my first ever presidential election vote, I was so excited to see someone with legit interest in saving the environment, full of hope for a new future. I remember how giddy it felt to step into the booth.

    I lived in florida then, the entire state was thrown out by a legit conspiracy.

    And it’s jaded my vision of politics ever since.

      Yeah, it’s a big reason why I think civil disobedience is making a comeback.

      People are realizing the government doesn’t exist for them; it exists for the ruling class. That’s not how it should work and we don’t have to play by the rules they make for us.

        Fun fact: Florida doesn’t actually have a statistically higher incident of ‘florida man’ activities as compared to other states, just by law all of Florida’s police blotters are available to the public.

        But I know you are just here for the memes and don’t care about objective truth.
