These might be the good old days. Go outside, feel the grass, say wassup to your neighbors,... whatever you do that means community, because sh*t might get bad for a while.

I understand that liberal YTs have nothing to fear.

But genocide Joe has been pushing genocide for more than a year.

You've convinced me. I won't vote for Joe Biden today.

It's a little funny to see Americans saying "genocide joe" like if the USA endorsing a genocide was a temporal thing and not the freaking constant of the last century

Hey! The US has been genociding people way longer than that. Give them some credit.

"Sure, Republicans killed a million Iraqis chasing fake WMDs, but I'm voting against the Democrat because she isn't sufficiently outraged about Israel killing 40k Palestinians."

Americans need to clean up their own shit before assuming their self-assigned role as world police.

Not self-assigned when USA was the only serious country paying into NATO. Every other country failing to pay into NATO makes USA the de-facto police. Fortunately other countries have understood that and are now starting to pay more into NATO these days.
