About as edgy as a beach ball. #SNL.
Americans are about to learn just how impossible it is to govern from the centre.
The Democrats will apease, collaborate and bipartisan their way into fascism just like they did under Biden and the past two years.
No matter what happens next, the American epoch is over. Thank god
"she (America) has always been able to correct her faults."
Literally the opposite of what America is known for.
Clyburn: "de Tocqueville said, 'America's greatness is not that she is more enlightened than any other nation, but rather because she has always been able to correct her faults.' That's what we did on Tuesday. We repaired a big fault that had opened in our body politic, and I am hopeful that we can maintain this restoration and move toward a more perfect union."
"Nothing will fundamentally change." Biden, 2019.
Tonight, the American people sent a clear message — they want a politics that brings people together rather than divides them, and leaders who offer concrete solutions to the challenges they face.
These results were only possible because outstanding candidates stepped forward in every region of the country — including in areas once considered long shots. They came from different backgrounds and represented a range of political perspectives, but were united by shared values, a belief in public service, and a commitment to putting the people of their districts and states first.
We also owe a debt of gratitude to the thousands of election officials and volunteers from both parties who helped ensure a smooth election and carried out one of the most essential functions of our democracy.
While this administration has another two years in office, our job now is to roll up our sleeves, make changes wherever we have the power to do so, prevent further damage, and lay the groundwork for the future.

Late stage capitalism:
A supermarket throws perfectly good food in the dumpster, pays its workers so little they can barely afford groceries, then asks customers to donate to the food bank at checkout.
And we're supposed to admire how fucking efficient this system is.
"Nothing will fundamentally change". -Biden, 2019.
You only have to look at what happened in the States to see just how badly British Columbia just fucked up.
I stopped going to my favourite shawarma place because of exactly this.
Nothing quite as insulting as standing around in an empty restaurant for 15 minutes while they make three doordash orders before they bother to get to yours.
