It's utterly bizarre that this is what we, as a society, have chosen for ourselves.

Fuck.

Enough of us that this is what we have to experience, anyway.

That, and a gerontocracy. Which, probably explains how we got to be in a kakistocracy....

The gerontocracy is truly a "both sides" playing field. The top Democratic party members were adults in the 1960s and 70s. They're woefully, obstinately past their primes and should have been put out to pasture more than a decade ago.

Odd how similar “kekistan” sounds.

Coincidence. Kakos means "bad" in Greek and "kek" is what's displayed to an Alliance character when a Horde character types "lol" in Orcish in World of Warcraft.
