Binged the first season lastnight. I felt rage and disgust after watching the first episode Other

I can totally see something similar to this happening in the USA and even worldwide due to "declining population."

I’m surprised that so many of you concede the loss to these fascists! Mayday fought back and should you read both novels that is exactly what happened; the Gilead fascists lose. I will fight Trump and his fascists till the day I die. Never surrender!

The left have no one to blame but themselves, with their tantrums over candidates not passing purity tests. The one thing the right has on us is they they vote. Even if they hold their noses while doing so. People on the left will vote third party to "send a message", or stay home in a snit.

The left has a major problem with always wanting to take the high road too.

No. Sometimes you gotta fight fire with fire. The left is just as much to blame for it because of this beggars/choosers shit they're pulling.

Yes, Biden is old. Get over it. And they bitch about Palestine. As opposed to Trump who just LOVES Palestine and will call Israel out?! That's sarcasm.
