Lame sauce. Can our elected officials just freaking decriminalize weed instead of worrying about dumb crap like this?

Elect better leadership. A state government run by a criminal mafia isn't going to operate in your best interest.

Edit: Of course I've got some raging prick cussing me out below because I said go vote. You can't even tell a Texan to vote without them giving up. This is the reasons the Republicams run this state. The voter suppression they cause can be overcome with effort, which was my point.

But the voter suppression caused by the apathy and laziness of the masses is not something that can be overcome from external forces. So either spend your effort in response to this crying about voting being impossible or work to coordinate.

I already know the outcome after having this conversation in Texas constantly for the last 20 years.

As someone from a deep red state, thanks for the advice. I didn’t realize it was so easy to get around gerrymandering, voter suppression, and the like. I’m glad you showed me the light!

It's easy guys, just elect better leadership!

Don't worry everyone, the guy that (checks comment thread below) left Texas for a blue state has figured it all out! It's so simple, I can't believe we didn't think of it sooner!

Lmao, you finally figured out how to read. Good job.

Ah, I see you didn't read it. Somebody had to correct you and explain it lol.

Lol, you're still sticking to the "I know you are but what am I" defense I see.

What? Are you actually capable of reading English?

[–] Lemonparty@lemm.ee 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Maybe if I rearrange the words a little they won't realize I'm repeating the same thing over and over.

Literally you

I dont see that quote anywhere in my comments? Weird.

Idk why you think I'm going to engage you seriously after the harrasment below. Sorry it took you raging for 5 hours straight and having somebody else help you read to catch up. Have a good rest of your day.

Oh, we know you don't. You've made your lack of self awareness abundantly clear
