Good. Appealing this will force him to take ownership of starving people. He will still lie, but maybe a few more people will see the light.
Anyone who hasn't seen the light by now never will.
You can't just lose hope, especially when things are getting worse and worse by the week.
It does take a long time for anything that the federal government does to actually affect your life or someone you know in a noticeable way. Lots of things might get slightly better or worse, but won't be directly attributable to government, like policies that affect the economy. Other things might get MUCH better or worse, but only for a few people at a time.
Especially if you're dumb, these things can be hard to notice. Some people don't believe us because we've been saying the train is coming for a year now and they haven't seen it. But when they do get hit by it, or they see someone close enough, well... it can start to get through to them.
And we need those few percentage points. It's important to get people to vote against this shit, assuming we still get to vote at all. Be aware that there's also levels of cheating in voting. If they do things that suppress the vote by 5%, with the extreme shit they're doing, we could gain more than 10 points.
Voting still matters. Even if they cheat.
I like you.
The bulk of them won't but there's a constant little trickle of people realizing it each day
There's a lot of people who are living in a bubble of lies. Sometimes the truth breaks through. That's a chance to shatter the right wing media illusion.
