If you are in a nation that has only two choices and one is a FASCIST, you are in a fascist nation without real choice. You are once again embarrassing yourself to the rest of the world with this endless team based bullshit.
IF THERE IS ONLY ONE "CORRECT" CHOICE THEN THERE IS NO CHOICE!
This is what you all get when you turn your whole system into a fixed 2 headed hydra for years and years, but when you needed to stand up and change the system you all instead point fingers and blame instead of doing anything.
You are acting as if it was not trump the nominee you wouldn't have the same rhetoric. The lesser of the two state evil logic didn't start during Trump first compaign in 2016
I did not have the same rhetoric when Biden was in office, come now this is next level putting words in my past hypothetical mouth.
We agree that the two party system is and has been a total joke of a democratic system however.
lol. Good one!
Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.
Your nation is a joke and the rest of the world is done with your shit.
The rest of the world does the exact same shit. I don't know why you types outside the US think you're somehow immune to facism, bigotry, and economic exploitation. And i say this living outside the US
When did I state otherwise? I know every nation is not immune, that is why american exceptionalism is frustrating.
And what esteemed nation are YOU from?
Canada, what is your point? We have our issues but last I checked we are not trying to take over Greenland.
My point is that Canada isn't good enough to look down upon the USA. And that's putting it lightly.
Oh that we disagree with, Canada is more then good enough for such a simple task.
K. Byeeee! Blocking you now as you have no dog in this race and just seem to want to bitch at someone.
Perfect, just like your leaders, you would prefer living in a make believe world then live in reality.
Clearly I have no "dog in this race" as if your shitstain of a nation is not in anyway involved with the world at all.
Oh but wait you can't see this and for some reason trying to make blocking someone some sort of slight.
