I so want to be in the Al Gore timeline. Bush picked up 3 electoral votes by lying to Nevada about yucca mountain, Ralph Nader siphoned off Dem votes, and one of the ‘stop the count’ rioters is now on the supreme court. Fuck the nazi bastard Rush Limbaugh who went from 1 station to 50 with no advertisers. Fuck Rupert Murdoch who got US citizenship just to by more media outlets. Fuck Scalito. Fuck the ‘both sides’ mainstream media. Fuck the washington post, its credibility died when KMG did. Fuck the repubs who pretended to care so much about little Elian. I swear to god I’m still in one of the matrix battery pods. Get me out of here Morpheus.
Fun fact: if 1% of the Florida Nader voters had instead voted for Al Gore instead, Bush wouldn’t have been President.
This is why it’s important not to protest vote 3rd party in the General election.
I can feel your justified rage from here, but…

I’m in stitches. Didn’t see that one coming. And yes, I too am willing to ascend into a greater world of Gnostic horror; it might not be so bad.
Al gore is on Epsteins list.
Harambe? 🥺 It’s so good to hear your voice 😭
Climate change? What’s that?
Many horrible things that were preventable, happened.
But you know why what happened?It was the very same mediocre electoral stupidity we see today, the precious, lazy assholes, easily-manipulable into inaction, who latched onto the murdoch/limbaugh/drudge report propaganda of the time.

9/11 was early in the Bush presidency, it probably would have happened if Al Gore was president.
There’s a chance the US response would have been different, but I won’t hold my breath, although it would be likely we’d have much better climate policies
We 100% would have invaded.
Would we have stayed so long? Probably, TBH. Obama stayed, and pendulum would’ve swung back to McCain anyway.
Tony Blair was a big “leftists” until 9/11. wouldn’t surprise me if the same thing would have happened to Gore
Wake me up in the timeline Carter won his second term.
That really is the moment it really started going wrong. Reagan is like trump only reagan was a actor.
I’d wish I was a Christian, so I’d be comforted by the idea that Reagan is suffering in hell
what the fuck
why would you do this to me
why would you make me cry on a perfectly fine day
You mean Clarence Thomas didn’t put his criminal thumb on the scale to tip the five-justice majority in Bush v. Gore, which halted the manual recount of disputed ballots in Florida, effectively awarding the presidency to George W. Bush?
ginny helped the Heritage Foundation in 2000, the brook bro’s riot.
kavanaugh was involved in the shit show as well. funny stuff that.
Ginny is the worst human on Earth. But not even the worst person in her marriage.
yeah they’re in some sick twisted contest to see who can be more despicable. it’s a match made in the 9th plane of hades.
I have a clear memory in high school in 1991 of seeing a newspaper clipping posted about the Anita Hill testimony. I had no idea how bad Republican corruption was going to get.
“She only said all that to get famous” was something I heard a lot of during Lewinsky. Violent barf.
Either that or Roger Stone, Joel Kaplan, and a host of other deplorable people failed to stop the recount with their riot.
I love to imagine the police actually doing their job and breaking it up the second that Republican Congressman gave the order to riot.
It’s wild that whole a full state recount would have been a Gore victory and we know what, but the requested specific recounts would actually have been insufficient to change the outcome.
RCV would have been easily a Gore win.
Btw we sorted out that climate stuff while you were sleeping. You looked like you needed it, so we just let you rest.
if we had taken him seriously, we would be jocking about it like we joke about Y2k.
all that fear mongering for nothing… only because that real fear mongering was used to avoid that disaster.
And social security is in a lockbox
And we have universal basic income, paid by the productivity gains due to automation. Why don’t we just spend the day at the beach?
It’s not all great …
Let’s not forget the oil crisis. We have way too much oil, since all cars were mandated to run on trash.
And the glaciars are now on the attack.
oof a new ice age would be awesome
We overcame capitalism, too…
Nah, not with Gore
We are in the worst timeline and that’s an inconvenient truth.
Oh my god, I’ve gone back in time! I have to do something to avert the coming disaster!
Anybody know where I can find a bulletproof vest to fit a gorilla?! And a birthday cake?
The time machine makes you younger, you come out of it a child.
when you enter the enclosure to give Harambee the bulletproof suit, the zookeepers see you in the Gorilla enclosure, they shoot Harambe to protect you.
😭 Why can’t I live in this timeline?! 😭
Make your own timeline.
Join a local mutual AID ASAP, and/or a local chapter of a grassroots led political action group (if there are non, look into how to start one).
Forget doomscrolling, forget touching grass, let’s fix this fucking world together!
I just wish 2024 went different. It’s weird being converted into what is essentially a Russia level fascist state in less than a year. Dump constantly speaks about being the president that’s done more than any in the last 100 years, and I don’t see why people aren’t believing him. We’re not getting out of this hole in our lifetime. It’s over. The highest office has legitimized double think, propaganda, lying, criminal rape, etc. We’re cooked as far as bringing respect or honor to government goes.
Well, we certainly aren’t getting out of it in trump’s lifetime.
Hopefully that’s not too much longer.
Trump makes you wish you had Bush back
Boiling frogs
No he doesn’t that’s the point of this meme in fact.
For Americans maybe.
Rest of the world over, Bush killed far more people.
So far maybe. Trumps gonna kill lots with the aid cuts. Here and abroad.
That is true, but we can also look at the broader resulting deaths from the global WoT.
I think it’s best to not look back softly on any of 'em. We’re to quick to normalise past atrocities.
sadly I think the loss of programs like pepfar and the other successes USAID had worldwide are going to dware even the horrendous shit show that was THE CRUSADE AGAINST THE AXIS OF EVIL’S WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION, er, oh, yes, that’s right, there never were any of these found, at all, and it took another decade to kill OBL, the actual villain…
it’s a horrible comparison to make, they’re both heinous tragedies foisted upon the world by utter fucking morons.
