26. ...you do realize of course that this means nothing to them...right?

Because they had a choice -- either it was 100% guaranteed they wouldn't get what they desired from us, or some small percentage chance he would keep his promise. Just because he turned out to be just as bad as us (in their eyes) doesn't mean they would have voted for us, because again, everything we stand for is what they hate.

So ultimately all this comes across as to them is something to laugh at, because they haven't lost anything (in general) that they weren't losing anyway, but they've still ruined your happiness just as you're celebrating (or indicate that you wish to) how you think theirs is ruined.

When both sides spite each other, this happens. That makes both sides eminently predictable and, as a result, the nation eminently lootable.

POLARIZATION IS YOUR ENEMY AND SO IS ANY PERSON WHO PUSHES IT.
