So you genuinely believe that the world cannot get better? You actually unironically fell for the "good things can't happen" meme? Yikers

You've wilfully misread the comment, but I'm not going to quibble with you about it.

Honestly with the way the US stands today, "no fundamental change" is probably the best we could hope for

How does this mean anything other than "good things aren't possible"

[–] Tenbot@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Because critiquing a system as currently failing doesn't translate to, "good things aren't possible," or as you said earlier, "things can't get better," except by hyperbolic inference. You're welcome to disagree with my points and offer your own thoughts on the issues, and that would certainly be more interesting than trying to critique me as a person based on four sentences on Lemmy.
