Funny how I've never seen a front on pic of the wh without the east wing. Anyone got one?

Ssh... the kids are having a moment. It'll dawn on them soon.

Go read up on Malaysia's GE14. We had an entrenched authoritarian govt of over 60 years gerrymandered to the neck with consolidation of executive and financial power in one person, ignoring the judiciary, using state funds for election purposes, openly handing out 'donations' to the public in cafes, blatant corruption at all levels, institutionalized racism, a placated majority held by race and religion, secret police, religious police, state sponsored disappearing of political dissidents, an ISA, fucked up education system, royalty killing people on golf courses, religious partisanship, the evil witch wife of the premiere, literally everything.

I too, didn't vote until the largest national scandal in history. Same excuses - 'it wouldn't make a difference, so why turn up?' 'Maybe by protesting people will see we are unhappy and the entrenched govt would hear our plea.' 'ill not fly the national flag during independence day, that'll show em!'

LfuckingOL. They don't care. Why would they? The formula worked for 60 years. Hoping for the politicians to wake up is a pipe dream.

The grassroots decided 'this is too much' and went out to the polls. People I personally know were digging into their life savings to convince their parents to vote against the govt that paid the parents a hralthy bribe each time the elections came around, while threatening the loss of the race and religious aid they've enjoyed over the years. National loyalty apparently cost round about $50 a head every 5 years. And you know what? We got that change, for better or worse.

Malaysia isn't perfect either. I'd say we're trying our best, given the circumstances. I'd draw parallels with the marcos era in the Philippines, but if the Philippines is anything to go by, we'd just as easily vote in the same, sometime in the future.

Current America doesn't know pain. It's almost comical. Her pain is in the past, it got her here. While it took pain to get us out of our situation, America had so much they took the pain of the past for granted, squandered their gifts, got complacent and LET that asshole back into office. It's is a fucking joke. Maybe it's not perfect, but believe it or not, many people aspire to the dream. Now? Not so much. Hopefully it doesn't get as bad as my country, it's gonna take us decades to right the ship. But no, you guys slept on your watch. Pretending it's the fault of the system or the politicians is just passing the buck.

Yeah yeah. Fucking boomers and all that.

Mate, I look at it this way: if you've forgotten your memory, how would you know that you've lost it? You'ld just carry on.

Hey Malaysia, nice sino funded mega projects you have there... Would be a shame if things sort of dried up, y'know... A real shame...

Ya, bbbutttt genocide! Fools.

Still trying to understand how Kamala and even Biden could possibly be worse. Have a good day america the very one you voted for! Thoughts and prayers everyday!

I'll be happy to be proven wrong, ecstatic even, but watch as he gets his way because the judiciary is too chicken shit to uphold 'all men are equal under the law'.

Good thing those jeenius Americans didn't vote the alternative candidate who was SO much worse at controlling Israel, huh?

/s for those assholes with voter's remorse still looking to justify their choice with another strawman
