It is so difficult for me not to be dismissive of 99% of DU posters who aren't in the bottom 1%, totally impoverished, third world-like conditions in the US, which I lived for practically 2/3rds of my life. I could derail 90% of DU topics talking about their pathetic perspective, but I don't, because as I'm finally breathing, I see where they come from, and they are just ignorant. Plus, I think about the rest of the world and where they are thanks to US imperialism, and it becomes even more evident how lucky I am, and in fact, how lucky I was even being in extreme poverty in this country.
The GOP will not implode in 2014. Would it be that were the case. They're being very fucking low key, they're keeping shit at the minimal level of rhetoric possible. I've been following politics for some 25 years (assuming you'd consider the thoughts of 10 year old), and this is the "calmest" I've ever seen in my life. no polarization, just, "vote GOP, we'll fix stuff." It's seriously surreal.
