I'm Not A Democrat, But The Internet Seems To Think So

Just because I don't agree with you, doesn't mean I side with one certain party.

anti-trump rally

Everyone nowadays seems to be super obsessed with what political party you are apart of or associate your self with. Some are quick to delete you from their social media accounts, and occasionally even shun you from the family because of it. Ever since the 2016 election, I've seen my fair share of both parties and equally hated both members in the general election.

I hate how extreme many Republicans can be with "Make America Great Again," because if I'm being honest, we have always been pretty bad throughout history. In all honesty, I would have much rather had Bernie Sanders win than the two that managed to get up to the top. And Now, I know that many hot-headed republicans are itching to get into my comments screaming at me and calling me a communist because I wanted Bernie Sanders to be in the top two of "Americas Got Idiots In DC."

But If you are one of the many people on the Republican side that can sit through someone's argument without doing that then thank you, and let us continue.

America was built on stolen lands, we forced natives off their homes, murdered them and tricked them into giving us things. All in the name of everyone's Christian 'God' because we came seeking religious freedom. When we got our lands it wasn't enough so we pushed and pushed them until our 'great' nation cast them aside in 'reservations' out west with practically nothing.

We build buildings and harvested crops overtop of the resting places of the natives' ancestors, and treated them with the most disrespect. We build our nation on immigrants from all over, America was a safe haven for the unwanted from everywhere. We put countless Japanese-Americans in places almost exactly like concentration camps after pearl harbor.

Slavery wasn't abolished until 1865, Segregation wasn't fully abolished until 1964, And now we want to refuse refugees because they're fleeing a terrible government, cry about 'jobs being taken' by illegals when you could easily get up and go get one, and continue to judge people.

So far only a handful of things coming out of America have been 'great' like our many scientists screaming about climate change, like Bill Nye, who all want to fix the earth's ever-rising climate change but get shrugged off because it still snows. Countless Scientist gets cast aside because the same ignorant people crying over someone else's choices in life refuse to believe in anything other than their own blind faith.

But hey, if you don't want to believe in facts I won't be the one to stop you. However, I would enjoy it if you didn't feel the need to shove religion into politics, or any argument you get into with anyone.

Call me a democrat if you want, and If being a decent human being, and asking the government to change and recognize the real major problems in our torn country is being a Communist, a leftist, a Democrat, or a snowflake, then I guess you can call me all four.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
