I am genuinely disgusted at how this could even happen like this. He got the popular vote? By 5 million?

Let me reword that. We have no liberal democracies as we thought of them in the 90s.

Best part of all this is there are still probably people who think that leftists are the anti-democratic ones...

What is so fucked that the US isn't an anomaly. Authoritarianism has been on the rise since the 90s and we don't really have any more true democracies. The crazy right-wing jackasses that people back in 2000 and 2005 thought were just kooks and nutjobs are now 100% mainstream and they're taking over their respective countries... We are not in a good place.

My god I haven't played tomb raider in soooo long! I remember gaming magazines that wrote articles that behaved as if she was real and how disastrous she is to archeology and national treasures, with one line saying 'who the hell would dream that setting off a grenade in a tomb undisturbed for millenia was a good idea?'

Good. One less.

Exactly. Which is why so many super expensive houses are actually fucking run down in run down shit neighborhoods.

I rarely agree with dictators, but when Xi xing ping said that houses are for living and not speculation he damn well was right.

I want him to have a stroke and a heart attack at the same time mid speech.

How the fuck is he not in prison? It's as if the conviction on more than two dozen felonies (and that's only the shit he is convicted of so far) and not suffer a single dollar for a fine or a minute in prison means the whole trial process meant nothing.

I ended up getting permabanned from reddit for saying that Lebanese people don't blame all their problems on Israel, just the the problems they do deserve blame for.

We have been in a new gilded age since the end of the 90s...
