This meme seems... moist. :-P

Except "nobody listens". Well that's not entirely true: Obama's administration created an entire pandemic response team whose sole job was to prepare in advance for when something like that was bound to inevitably happen - like figure out what to do, how to do it, how to handle getting the complex messaging out to people who are not comfortable with a lot of details or the varying levels of uncertainty that was going to be inevitable, etc. But who would ever want anything that that man (cough of color cough - what?, I didn't say anything, I just coughed is all!) touched? I heard that he even has cooties, eww gross! From a reliable source even - a Stable Genius who uses all the best words!

Anyway, it's a good thing that the next inevitable pandemic (that will definitely 100% happen) is absolutely certain to need zero federal funding, bc it will never ever happen, so we can all just go back to our regular lives, safe in the knowledge that the top 0.1% will be fine no matter what. The Economy will go on and on... all praise be to The Economy.

This does not go nearly far enough imho. The woman on the right needs to be literally enslaved, in bondage (but not the fun kind) while the woman in the red dress needs to be appreciated not just in passing but during every waking moment of every hour of every day, with every thought, hope, wish, dream, prayer, and most importantly action dedicated to her eternal happiness, but more importantly her happiness right the fuck NOW in the next quarter.

Also it's not just the USA but the entire Western world... and quite frankly the entire non-Western one too just with Profit substituted with Power.

But the REALLY fucked up part is that literally nobody that I have ever met IRL has ever acted that way, though conversely who doesn't have that culture going on at their workplace? It's a HIGHLY skewed distribution where the "job creators" act that way, and not even like 99% of them but only the billionaire and wannabe class, and bullies, whereas everyone else seems to remember the human... except, for whatever odd reason, when it comes time to vote.:-(

Show us what you got!?

Well that answers one question... and begins to spawn a whole new series of them:-).

Thus becoming one rule for the rich, vs. another for the masses...

B-b-but... you weren't supposed to eat my face off!?

Uh, ma'am, this is a Wendy's... did you want to like, order any food?

There most definitely could not have been a show without her! :-P

So far... this time could legit be different.

We've Fucked Around with the planet (since the Industrial Revolution), and also invented nukes, so... I suppose we're about to enter the And Find Out stage of FAAFO.

Aren't we in the USA already at >200 electoral votes total that have pledged to put all of their votes towards whoever wins the popular vote? That said, I would expect a more serious resistance as it inches closer to where it might actually make a difference.

Also, I realize that isn't quite the same thing as fully moving away from a first past the vote system, but it is a type of reformation and it does help get away from the electoral college system in particular, so seems somewhat related.
