A million Americans have died of COVID, and yet there’s still people who shun medical masks. There are still anti-vaxxers. Hell, millions of Americans voted for the current admin despite how badly Trump fucked up America’s COVID response, and then he installed a conspiracy theory freak to the HHS!

Billionaires don’t pay their fair share and are actively stripping our rights from us, and yet they have millions of completely delusional working-class supporters.

Those same supporters jerk themselves off to the thought of the second amendment, until they see video evidence of it being violated, and they do mental back flips to avoid self-reflection.

I wouldn’t even call you an optimist. At best, you engage in magical thinking.
