Politics, like it or not, is a big part of our culture. Art (memes included), comments on culture. I agree it can get exhausting, but it’s not something that we can hide from either. Personally, I prefer white quips about the subject compared to the doom scroll articles seen on political news communities.

It doesn’t matter if coal is dying, it matters if coal is paying him.

I mean, the sentiment makes sense, but if the answer is to teach more kids to think critically, we have an uphill battle. Something tells me that republican legislatures are already very aware of this sentiment as evidenced by all of the book banning a we are seeing in states across the country.

Honesty, in these dire circumstances, we need both tools.

Obviously they are the ones who have to deal with the end result. But that is very myopic and unhelpful.

Sigh, “ferment” is what I was going for… not sure what my auto correct was thinking when I fat fingered that. I won’t change it as the responses to it are funny and deserve context.

Honestly this blood is on the hands of places like Fox News and OAN. They cater to and mermen’s mental illness until it manifests like this. And they know it. Fox News was making fun of its viewers off camera. The way that the skillfully manipulate the minds of the vulnerable is nothing short of intentional. If a therapist were to do this they would see jail time for sure. But when the media does it, we all just shrug.

My last 2 campaigns have had the same Bard BBEG because bards are just so excellent with their ability to alter the thoughts of other.

You would think an attorney would have the forethought to recognize how posting online might hurt his case in the future. This lends evidence to my hypothesis that being a republican really is a mental illness.
