America has been broken a very long time. To pin it on a president is to miss the point completely. Presidents are just mid-level management for the empire. Literally a waste of energy to get mad at a president or presidential candidate.

Not once did I pin everything on Harris or say she was solely responsible for America’s plight. The entire article speaks to how this country has found itself in its predicament. You’re proving my point about the absence of critical thinking by leading with emotion sans what’s actually written.

Fair enough. But I’m not without critical thinking skills, as my prior response should point out.

I agree that we are in a predicament. Our disagreement is in how we got here, how we move on. Your article is pretty clear. You can’t escape the cringey Kamala pic at the head of your article. Godlessness was the train that got us here, godliness is the one that gets us out. It’s pretty clear.

“Godlessness was the train that got us here, godliness is the one that gets us out. It’s pretty clear.” This I can agree with.

Good article! I have some of the same thoughts. I don’t believe in the two party system anymore. I woke up! Yes our world is in the hand of the Devil. I really don’t see it getting better by people believing a president will save us. A president might make it suck less but suck it still will. What America started out became hijacked by people who took power and then they took more and more. Each generation has a hand in allowing what we have today. People still can’t see what is in front of them. It’s either We come together to fight the system (We are too busy fighting amongst ourselves) or there will be war. I feel people want war at this point. What we should do as humans is try a different approach but yet we will do as we have always done which gets us nowhere.

Well said. I think that the current system is so corrupt, that it can only logically produce a president, and leaders, as corrupt as itself. I don’t think any president will even make it “a little better”. There’s always a cost to any small, seemingly positive changes. That’s how political capital and leverage works.

We do need to unite. Media has a very simple task of keeping us divided. There’s many issues to pick out of a hat to do so.

Unity, ideally, requires each citizen to see the corruption on “their side”. The only place to meet is an evolution beyond the parties. Find that common ground. For some example. Providing for self, family. Serving those around you. Realizing that choices people make, regarding points of disagreement, do not necessarily define the person.

There’s unimaginable money aligned against unity of the people. Presidents and senators don’t get to dictate rules and pass down edicts to billionaires and trillionaire corporations. It doesn’t work like that. Hence my almost complete lack of faith in the system. Politics is the epitome of “if you can’t beat ‘em, join em”. They’re all just applying for the job to get the big prize. The heroes that go into politics, either stay in the corner, with no power, shouting into the abyss, or they get on board with the money and the power.

There’s a way out, but it’s past all this, not within it.

If only people weren’t so dang stupid this world could b changed. Too many people have zero critical thinking skills . It’s easier to live in their fantasy of if just more people would vote on my side things would change . (Whatever side they are on) It’s hard to converse with people with this type of thinking. You can be logical and give them examples yet all you get is if you dont vote for my person your vote will go to the other side. We will b doomed! Never mind believing in a government that throughout history has did nothing for us but lie, deceive , and make our lives worse no matter who was in . Cause believe me if someone didnt tow the line they got killed . It’s theater and I for one am tired of the play.

It’s definitely about challenging your own concepts. I get it. Super difficult to do. Sometimes it’s ingrained, sometimes it a concepts you’ve taken on for emotional reasons.

All we can do is be consistent and attempt to be understood. Eventually people will buy-in to strength. Must be well-reasoned and based off of fundamental and universal tenets that most can understand.

No the article is clearly about how America has lost its godly ways and you’re pinning it on Harris.

Nicely played.

Trump is the “pussy grabber” and best friends with Epstein. Seems like pretty fleshly needs to me. Why not use his picture instead of Kamala Harris.

Because the article is about Kamala Harris? 🤷🏾‍♂️

Donald Trump is a pedophile.

It is so weird when people try to blaspheme against religion to support their child rapist God Emperor.
