Here is a brutal truth. American voters knew exactly what they were voting for when they elected Trump. The majority of them wanted a King. (www.nytimes.com)

It’s a lot easier to blame anything else over accepting that a significant majority of the US (and probably the world) are either profound dullards or literal fascists.

People, on the whole, are awful.

Every day, I find that I am more disappointed and angry with the general populace. I get that they were propagandized and shit from birth. But like... So was I. And yet I somehow got a conscience and eyeballs to read.

People are just so incredibly lazy.
