17. I have quit ALL media outlets...MSNBC can pound sand with the rest...

This country is not run rationally or sanely and I refuse to participate in any more. I hope people who decided to either not vote or voted for this atrocity get EVERYTHING they voted for. Its time to let them all find out.

*(If you need it - CLEARLY all that follows is ):
When deportation camps go up in January and round ups and family splitting and detentions in separate locations happens, well...I fucking tried to tell you so...

When tariffs go into effect and imported goods become expensive and no domestic option is available, I fucking told you so, don't cry NOW...

When pre-existing conditions and health insurance costs skyrocket, I fucking told you so about THAT too...

When Russia annexes Ukraine and NATO dissolves - giving Putin free run at Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania and Poland next, don't worry...your orange idol promised a stern talking to for Putin (of course, he will be RECEIVING that talking too...but I fucking told you so about THAT as well...)

When the Gazans are sacrificed and the Jews liquidate them, not my concern...eggs still cost too much.
When Trump pardons himself for all crimes and declares himself above all laws, I mean what can you do? Gas is STILL too much.
When your wife (or daughter/niece or just some female that you once felt warmly about) dies of sepsis in a Texas Emergency Room parking lot, too bad, so sad.... Trump 2024 baby!!! Libtards are pwned brah!!!
When your parents become sick and bankrupt, just convince them to "self-eliminate" and hurry up and die faster to avoid post-mortem bills, but seriously, what could you have done - vote for a woman? a woman of color? a multiracial woman of color? Clearly not...

When hungry children living in poverty end up becoming uneducated criminals due to lack of any options, hey, feeding them breeds laziness and is self-defeating, amirite?

And when the media starts fully gaslighting you all on orders form Il Duce, just hope he decides your group is still not up for elimination or persecution just yet...I'm sure that Mika and Joe and the rest of the sell outs will be there to show you someone ELSE getting hurt worse and convince you that its just necessary medicine and everyone needs to just accept it.
