    can’t wait to go back to having to turn all drinking water into light beer because it’s the only way to purify it

    To celebrate this ruling I went to my local reservoir where my town gets their drinking water and I went for a swim where I both urinated and defecated in the water. THANKS SCOTUS, you saved me from getting out of the water.

    Because poop has great probiotics that will help our kids grow strong… Tumors and Bacteria.

    Time was when an American about to go abroad would be warned by his friends or the guidebooks not to drink the water. But times have changed, and now a foreigner coming to this country might be offered the following advice:

    If you visit American city,

    You will find it very prett

    Just two things of which you must beware

    Don’t drink the water and don’t breathe the air!

    Pollution, pollution!

    They got smog and sewage and mud.

    Turn on your tap

    And get hot and cold running crud!

        I dislike this as much as everyone else, but… Would you give us a “/s” or some other indication of sarcasm? Some people assert what you wrote –or similar things– unironically.

    So American voters get to not only eat shit, but now also drink it? How oddly appropriate…

    Well, that’s disappointing. When trying to convince some less-culty conservatives that some kinds of regulations can be a good thing, I used this very thing as an example, thinking nobody in the right fucking mind would support dumping biological and industrial waste into water supplies.

    In hindsight, I really set the bar too low.

      No, let’s see the silver lining on this one. My water was already giving me headaches and nausea (which stopped when I transitioned to bottled water, which is something I really didn’t want to do), so let’s lean into this.

      The water in the US is safe to drink is a fucking lie, if we hit this hard people will get sick, then they’ll be ready to learn

    Why do Republicans feel compelled to be on the unethical or wrong side of literally everything!?

      Because the Republican party represents the rich class. Whatever helps the bottom line. I’m absolutely shocked how many middle to lower class people vote for Republicans. They’re literally voting against their own interests. The Democrats need to modify their agenda to be a full fledged worker class party or we’re doomed.

        But they have been told soooooo many times by the best news station (fox) and the most trustable youtubers that it’s the Democrats that are working for the rich and against them so they MUST support the orange supreme leader. /s

      That’s a good question. I think they just follow the money, meaning they do what the biggest spenders tell them to do. This isn’t even any sort of political movement anymore, it’s pure corruption.

      I had a hard time staying sane trying to see them as actual American politicians. When you let yourself see them as fifth columnists hell-bent on ending America, reality starts to feel way more coherent.

      Can we be done with “winning”? I don’t think I like this “winning”.
