I would rather talk about music.

Find the album “Watching the Sun Go Out” by Total Strangers at a streaming service near you.
How much do you blame the public for wanting to be lied to and how much do you blame the media? This is not to exonerate the media because I share your hatred, but at some point the public supports this insanity, or is mute about it. But totally agree, it is a colossal failure.

Thank you. I feel the exact same way.

Even still the headline doesn’t capture the capitulation and seriousness of the matter.

Is credulous the correct word? Is it cowardly? Or perhaps clueless? I guess I don’t know which case is worse.

There are two sets of rules and it is one of the largest problems in this country today. You can’t have a functioning country if one side is allowed to do anything, and the other side is required, not to meet just normal standards, but elevated standards to make up for the other side.

I think comments like this are such a window into the failure of news organizations. Do they even see it as their job to speak candidly and with moral clarity? If no, why? And why should we buy your product? If yes, then this is a failure. I don’t know which answer is worse.

I was the same. I was so sad. ❤️

All the way off.

But I hope you are right and the Republicans lose every seat.

Never underestimate the racism of Texas.

Why can’t blue states stop sending money to the federal government and blue counties stop sending money to subsidize red states?

Something tells me the press would cover this completely different if Kamala had won. 🤬

Good gawd. What a little baby. Good riddance.

One day maybe we will all be as perfect as you. I worked like hell to get people to vote and supported candidates to do what you are talking about. The electorate doesn’t want to hear it. And neither do you. I know people sacrificing way more than you will ever do. You just whine. Pathetic.
August 18, 2025 at 4:19 PM
I will support you. Please let me know when you start your efforts.
August 18, 2025 at 4:01 PM
Yes that’s really the problem. Again, you said it was easy to fix. Fix it. Or shut up.
August 18, 2025 at 3:58 PM
You were the one who said it was easy. Then when challenged you start blaming others.

The reality is it is difficult, really difficult. People are not inclined to vote in their interest. I don’t know why. But I really wish you would look at the world like it is.
August 18, 2025 at 3:52 PM
Then go do it if it is easy.
August 18, 2025 at 3:44 PM
Getting people to vote for it is easy?!?! You are delusional. You live in a bubble. Sorry I reengaged.
August 18, 2025 at 3:35 PM
Maybe then you should go out and get the people elected to do it. You make it all sound so easy. Do it. I will support you in those efforts. I am probably for the same things you are. Getting people off their asses to vote for it and get behind it is a completely different question.
August 18, 2025 at 3:25 PM
I fundamentally disagree with you. It just genuinely feels like you are impervious to discussion so I am done.
August 18, 2025 at 3:20 PM
Democrats in Texas literally left the state upending their lives. But of course it’s always the Democrats fault people are awful and lazy and they have to fix it. This is image is what this thread is like.
August 18, 2025 at 3:10 PM
But they have over and over again.
