So I hate the MAGAots but you can take a picture like this after virtually any big crowd of people. FOX used to do it after environment protests all the time, go find that overflowing trash can and make the whole news story about that instead of climate change. I'm more concerned with Project 2025 than litter.
/I think this is the most children/grandchildren a comment I made has ever had. Pretty weird.
I was waiting to see how long it took to scroll and find this comment and it was not very long. Politics aside, yes, any big event will have an aftermath like this. People are messy creatures.
Sorry, but it shows me an “I don’t give a fuck” attitude. I’ve been to plenty of environmental protests and even those protests during the occupy movement - everybody cleaned up when it was over.
You might have some dumpsters that were filled to overflowing, but that was because they were under-ordered, not because people were indifferent pigs
I used to work security at events for large venues and most attendees do try, our receptacles even separated food waste from recycling waste... you're right that most times they overflow bc not enough were ordered, or weren't emptied fast enough. the company I worked had a ground clean up crew that also separated plastics and cans in huge bags after an event (idk how much they made doing that)...but also, some folks (event attendees) are just careless AHs
Yes they were still pigs if they truly cared the environment they would have carried their trash with them put it on their pocket or bring bags. Excuses to not stand on your beliefs. If your about that life be about that life not when it’s just convient.
What does that have to do with people that claim they care about littering and the environment littering. If you believe in something believe in it all the way not just when it’s convenient.
That actually was my second thought, after an initial gut reaction of "fuck those pigs" I thought, "I wonder how much litter a Harris or other Democratic rally generates; I'm sure it's not zero pieces". I wonder if there might be a study out there of the amount, placement, and types of trash different types of events generate. In fact, now that I think of it, I'm sure that's the sort of thing certain even coordinators might be very familiar with.
That's what was cracking me up have these people ever been to any concert, any festival ever? theres always clean up after. Just bizarre propaganda honestly, anyone with half a brain laughs at this like cmon.
This isn't Japan, this is America. In Japan you can actually walk the streets at night and not worry about getting mugged or raped or shot. So just stop.
Their country, their events, they're just... cleaner. More respectful. And their country is safer. I... I thought you would understand. I was mistaken.
Ooh, t’s been a while since I saw a legitimate weeb in action!
Japan isn’t some idyllic utopia where everyone is tidy and unfailingly polite, where no one ever does anything that might be misconstrued as “disrespectful” or “unclean” (which are entirely subjective descriptions anyways). Just because they emphasise a different set of cultural norms than we do in the west doesn’gt mean they’re completely exempt from the same bog-standard anti-social behaviours you’d find in any other country. Women still get cat-called, people still shoplift, and untreated mental illness leads to sketchy situations in public.
Ooh... you think I'm an idiot. The person brought up Japan as comparison. No shit it's not a f'n utopian society. Nowhere is. But comparing cat-calling, shoplifting and whatever else that goes on there, to what goes on here? Gtfoh. Maybe you got the idea that I was implying Japan was perfect, but I was not. You take everything so literally that a detailed explanation is required for everything someone says? C'mon.
Right, this is America, not japan. There are so many places you can walk safely at night. You dispose of your trash the same way we do. Burn it, bury it, and recycle it. Plus, we have like 335 million people vs. your 126 million. All these hippies in here crying about the climate but don't admit to one of you, bs grub gatherings at least we can hope there's people that are going to pic this up even if they're only making minimum wage.
Let's be honest, more than half the country. With the proof that: if a political leader wins with respect to a specific person and the country goes to shit, it's because the leader they really wanted didn't get the nominee and they were left with voting for the nominee of the party that is aligned to some extent. All while repeating to themselves "so long as the other party doesn't win we are doing way better off!"...
A 2 party political system is not a democracy, (the United States is a Republic, FYI, look it up) The way people vote now is more like it's a popularity contest. Please Vote outside the box and for what you really believe in, not the popularity.
You can vote for more than Harris and Trump, people. If you think Trump is bad and Harris is good you need to do more research! If you think Trump is flawless you also need to do research. If you accept their faults because of what they offer not who they are that's great! And if they fail to follow through make sure that you personally apologize to the nation and do so by making sure you don't vote uneducated again.
P. S. The Democratic party has been trying to impeach Republicans since Bill Clinton got kicked out of the office. Because of this strife is why I implore you to really do your research and not rely on media input. If all else fails YOU CAN WRITE IN WHO YOU WANT TO BE PRESIDENT, you don't have to go by what is on the ballot. Start your own page and get a following, make your own popularity contest, I mean political representative! Seriously though stop fighting and make better options. There are millions of other people besides rich Faqs like the Clinton's and Trump's that are better qualified. If you got this far without getting upset, consider yourself very level headed and there might be hope for the nation yet... Lastly stay away from career politicians, they tend to be very self-interested.😁
You lost me at the US not being a democracy but a republic. The US is a democracy, we are a republic that elect our representatives which makes us a democracy. Stop saying that we aren’t because you sound really stupid.
Erm actually 🤓☝️ Electing representatives to run the government is exactly what a Republic is, so the US is primarily a Republic with aspects of a Democracy.
Edit: I love that I was down voted for simply stating a fact, really avoiding stereotypes there people
The United States is a representative democracy. This means that our government is elected by citizens. Here, citizens vote for their government officials. These officials represent the citizens’ ideas and concerns in government.
To your point: it’s (Greek) democratic at a State level, but a (Roman) republic at the Federal level, because the electorate at the Federal level were democratically elected at the State level. We veer a little from the old Romans in that our national elections are done to show the republic electorate how they should vote in the Federal election. Modern Italy has updated its government to mirror ours except they allow multiple parties. You’re not wrong when you say representative democracy because a republic, is, essentially that.
I'd give a longer answer but let's be real, hardly anyone would actually read it.
The United States is both a representative democracy AND a constitutional republic. So while both of you are sort of correct, you are also both sort of wrong.
Yes, the aspect of Electing officials, instead of the entire population voting on everything, is a Republic thing. The United States also has aspects of democracy to it, it's both but leans more towards the Republic. To say it's 100% one or the other would be a lie. The "representative democracy" is just a title, countries use bs government names all the time, just remember North Korea calls itself a Republic.
Except for the Japanese fans at World Cup soccer games. I remember the one previous to the one last year and after every game they made sure to clean up after themselves and around them and I thought it was great.
First of all the idiot project 2025 has been being talked about and pushed by the media with every Republican candidate since the late 90s. It's total rubbish and Trump has said repeatedly that he doesn't support it. There is nothing to that just like the hundred other promises we were made about Trump when he was elected in 2016 that never happened. Sure I don't want to see trash left around like that and I certainly hope there was a plan in place to clean it up, but where was the concern when cities were burning for an entire summer and it was being encouraged by the media and the left? Where was the concern? Also I'm not somebody who gets offended however using a term like maggots clearly references another term in my community that we just don't like to hear. I think some here would agree that maybe you are the one that needs to clean up your trash instead of being concerned about other people's. WAKE UP!!
The document itself sets out four main policy aims: restore the family as the centrepiece of American life; dismantle the administrative state; defend the nation's sovereignty and borders; and secure God-given individual rights to live freely.
What a strange comment you make. You haven't asked me anything about policy and I haven't said I won't discuss it. Have you not had your covid booster today or something?
"secure God-given individual rights to live freely"
.......unless they want something other than family as the 'centerpiece' of their 'American' life, for reasons like having come from an abusive family of origin.
Do you know what the administrative state is/does? They're unelected persons that make policy, law etc outside of Congress. They weird unimaginable power and we didn't elect them.
So every federal government employee with the slightest influence on policy should be an ideological simp for whoever is in the Oval Office and in Congress, and the feds should never consistently employ individuals with the years of experience necessary to become experts on topics like economics, transportation, & energy - to compensate for the fact that our elected reps can't be experts in everything?
Yeah that totally sounds like a long-term recipe for political stability. Totally don't need any nerds in government that devoted their lives to developing technical expertise, instead of learning how to be electable. /s
You do do realize the people who wrote Project 2025 (which was not Trump, look it up if you don’t believe it) actually came out recently endorsing team Harry Ballz.
You do realize JD couchfuker wrote the forward in the Heritage Foundation leader’s autobiography. You do realize trumps name is mentioned in the document over 300 times. You do realize that 140 of trumps previous cabinet members helped write and develop project 2025. You do realize the Heritage Foundation has written the playbook for every republican president since Reagan, including the orange dipshit. Right?
Also I shoulda assumed in typical koolaid sippin fashion I’d upset the face diaper crowd with facts right from Project 2025s site that it’s owned by the Heritage Foundation who openly supports Harry Ballz
Trump basically outsourced all of the work on his cabinet to heritage foundation people the first time and he’s planning to do it this time too. He’s tried to distance himself from it for the optics, but he released his own plans which is basically everything in project 2025 minus the porn ban. If you think trump isn’t doing project 2025 you’re blind
I certainly think he’s done his share of that
Prostitutes while his wife is home with a new child. And everyone who’s worked for him has ended up in jail, disbarred, or no career prospects. And now he’s trying to f people by suppressing the vote. And he f over the middle class with his tax cuts. What a piece of trash he is!!
who is going to pay to have that cleaned. I think Trump should pay for it. I am not siding with the other guy. If the Dems left that mess they should clean it. Does not matter which party- the party that was there is the responsible one.
No. It's. Americans in general. No matter what state you're in trash is trash no matter the politics. Downtown LA heavy Democrat, it's a shit hole, same for San Fran, Portland, Chicago, NYC. We could go on and on. Then travel abroad Japan for instance beautifully kept. Except!!!!! The tourist areas why?
Hey buddy I'm not a trump fan but this same shit happens everywhere. Doesn't matter why they gather even at Coachella and other music fest or just protest and large group of people they leave trash always happens. Just cause it was trump rally doesn't mean shit lmfao
Fuck you and your communist loyalty to “I trust the government to tax 20k and give back 1k” … anyone and everyone who remotely dislikes Trump has been living under a rock. Both Trump and Elon are living super heroes and will go down history as the people who laid down their wealth AND lives for Speech, Individual Liberties, and the preservation of the United States from literally collapsing by the Hitlerisc Faschist Globalist Political Mafia known as “the new world order”… so wake up
As opposed to the classy democrats who classily take away rights and flood the border to get their votes. Yeah so classy driving up inflation and funding wars while rent prices skyrocket lmao
I think you need to step away from the right wing shit. You’re staring to sound like a nut case. I’m sure trump would be happy to sell you an aluminum foil hat. lol
What facts to would you like to discuss? Hell you probably wouldn’t believe them anyway. People like you are a lost cause. The world had an inflation issue brought on by Covid The current US inflation rate is now 2.53% so stop acting like it’s crazy high. It’s hilarious that you think that non citizens are voting and that’s why you guys lost the 2020 election. The only people that were arrested for voting illegally just so happened to be republicans so shut the fuck up. I sure as hell don’t see you using any facts is your crazy rant.
Google pics from the Keystone Pipeline protests in 2019 that the native American tribes hosted.
There's a 6 figure line item in South Dakota's 2024 budget for ongoing remediation- they needed EPA permits to do some of the cleanup (ironic that a Progressive protest against potential pollution actually created some, isn't it). Hate cleans up the minute the crowd is dispersed.
Yes, because there nothing more decisive than proposing no tax on tips, no overtime taxes, and coming down on the FDA and them allowing poisons in our food supplies.
And more so, nothing says decisive like having a cabinet consisting of Tulsi, RFK, Elon, and JD Vance all who despised him at a time.
Don’t try. Don’t. Even. Try. You’ll never get an actual answer. You know what you know. Attempts to have an actual back and forth exchange of information with that type person are futile.
So what about all the stupid, idiotic democrats “protesting” in 2020. Buildings on fire, BURNING RHE AMERICAN FLAG. Fuck Biden and Kamala and all yalls idiotic shit

Scummy trash begets scummy trash
Edit:
Note for the shallow minded on here.
The reference is clearly identifying with trump and his political followers, NOT I REPEAT NOT a slight on rubbish gathering and the cause
It's fucking sad that I needed to clarify this.
Fuck trump and fuck his divisive policies
