  • You know what, I honestly hate this argument.

    The normal user that has a job, a life, a world outside of social media isn’t going to be going to monitor and go to all the disparate original sources to find this information. The journalists who are paid to go to all of these original sources, aggregate, add their thoughts if they have it, and let their audience know about all the news. They deserve to be paid by their job to aggregate and inform with some clicks and some ad revenue.

    Otherwise, how about you go and trawl the internet for all gaming news all day every day and do it for free for the rest of us instead of complaining. But we all know none of you complainers do, you go to the same gaming sites OP does, reads the same articles, and then just complain about how unoriginal everyone else is.








  • I’m not going to say I was Waltz’s biggest fan when he was on the national stage but seemed solid to me and his handling of the Republican attempts at civil war and making the statement he made to get the hell out of the way for new leadership and not cling onto power unlike a lot of his other collogues garners a lot more of my respect.

    I hope he follows on his word to help those new leaders and fosters actual change in the party that needs change and a spine.











  • Nothing but crap bullshit excuses outside of gerrymandering and even then, if you didn’t vote or voted Republican that’s on you and are part of the problem/reason we’re all in this mess.

    Get removed off your voter roll, you had time to get back on. You don’t like politicians being in the pocket of corporations, well get your ass and vote in the primaries. Oh, I have to work, MF’er polls are open early in the morning and into the evening and yeah having a shit job sucks and yeah waiting in long lines sucks balls but if you wanted to save America, well that’s what you suck it up and do it with your kids in tow.

    However, when you have 40% - 50% of the population that can’t be arsed to vote but complain about how bad things are for them, well honestly after 20+ years of voting, living that working class life while voting, in a state that did the attempt to suppress the vote which of course my immigrant family was a target of. I lived through most of what you outlined and while they are explanations, they’re not an excuse and honestly Americans, including my first generation American self that took our kids with us to vote, are just getting what we collectively allowed to happen here.

    Welcome to stupid fascist hell that Americans allowed to happen.
