    This is really a backwards way of thinking. There was a time when most people couldn’t even vote, and it sure wasn’t voting that won them the right to vote.

    Learn literally any history I’m begging you.

      We’re not in historical America right now. We’re in right now. In the fucking present. Right where your actions helped cause the shit show we’re currently experiencing.

      So how about you stop trying to change the fucking channel and watch the program you helped create. Accept what you’ve done here. Because no amount of “what about this,” or “what about that” is going to change the present day hell we are now facing.

      Do you understand what is happening? I don’t give a fuck that “there was a time….” That time is irrelevant.

      Wake up.

        History didn’t end! History is still happening! You’re living through history right now!

        You need to learn from history to prepare for the future, but you seem to think there’s nothing to learn from the past. It’s bizarre.
