you're not wrong, but falling into nihilism is fucking gay as shit. fact of the matter is that Trump did a ton of shit in his first term that pissed the lot of us off, and he's saying and doing shit that's pissing off the lot of us now. it's foolhardy to expect a POTUS to live up to the hype of the campaign, and I'd argue that Trump had a strong start early in the year giving us a ton of optimism. Is Trump 47 superior to the alternate timeline where Kamala 47 exists? I'd still say yes, even after all the gaffes, missteps, and foot-in-mouth happening. I'm nowhere near as psyched as I was in January, but to that end? We still have another 3 years of his term left. I ain't swallowing any white pills any time soon (unless it's @Diana Moon Glampers giving us a whitepill wednesday), and the same's doubly true for any blackpills. Call me an optimist or a faggot or a total sperg, but nihilism is quite literally impossible to live with because its ultimate endpoint is total self-destruction. If there's any self-destruction that'll come outta me, it'll be from reading both the Diamond and the Heart Sutras.
