I once made up a story in a room full of evangelicals about how I got 3 different women preggers in college and subsequently paid for abortions.
Also told them that inner city gangs would come and raid their homes to rape their wives and take their shit once resources ran out in a civil war.
All political discussion lacks good faith anymore, so I just make shit up to the most offensive extreme I can create.
I can't bring myself to do that. As cynical as I am about the state of our systems, I have lofty ideals that I take very seriously. I have high standards for our government and want us to work towards that. I know too much about how it all works and truly believe in good government, so I have a hard time shitposting about it.
