    Country is broken post 2008 and we haven’t even arrived to the final destination we are going.

      Makes me laugh at the liberals spewing American exceptionalism bullshit in the other comment chain.

      Strong union support? Plenty of vacation? 40 hour work weeks???

      Genuinely, what fucking insane liberal bubble are those people living in to say this and act like Democrats are the “other side” rooting for the people and putting these in place.

      How can you say with a straight face the Dems have strong support for unions. Maybe the fucking police union, sure.

      How can you say we should be happy with the 40 hour work week. I work 55 per week and this is common for STEM degrees. In America, salaried workers don’t even get overtime and often make less than the fucking forklift operator outside.

      How can you say, unironically, Dems have given us plenty of vacation days. Even the most liberal strongholds use less vacation than developed countries. Y’all know it’s normal for Europeans to fuck off for an entire month every year?

      How fucking dare you liberals spit in my face and tell me bold lies and then demand my vote.

      The reason the hypocrisy of liberals is so fucking unbelievable is the realization that liberals don’t actually have beliefs or values. They are truly blue MAGA, that’s all it is. They don’t give a shit about making society better or helping the working class.

      And I’m so fucking tired of it. Burn it all down at this point if my choice is between continued hell or the literal apocalypse.
