That would be the problem. “Democratic” socialists clearly just have zero economic education. Couldn't agree more. |
[Ironically, the next article on the topic.](https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/22/us/fake-hate-crimes.html?action=click&module=RelatedLinks&pgtype=Article) For every one "white supremacist" there are ten Smolletts. |
The EU are really getting worried now. Yup. This is ridiculous and desperate. |
You know tax's cuts isn't paying money to a corporation?
And they will still be paying taxes. So now new York just lost 4 billion in individual income and a large precent of taxes.
Sounds like a major loss to me Huge loss for NYC. Way to go AOC! Off to a tremendous start. |
I'm sure you'd have the same reaction if a Republican said something like this. I think a single republican saying something is fine.
The problem is, republicans as a whole are over represented in congress and the Supreme Court. |
genuine question. how does that hat stand for hate? its a hat. Improper opinions will get you Reeeee'd at, careful with that free thought there |
I’m confused. Are we mad that they got a loan like 99.9% of all Americans who buy real estate or mad that they got a federally insured loan and their politics are different than ours and the rules should be different for them? This is a legitimate question. Why are you troubled that they bought something? |
So once the Stone, Cohen and Manafort sentencings are done, Muellers probably done. Very disappointing that nobody in the Trump family was indicted or charged. This. I cant believe that people are all giddy over Manafort as if it is some sort of win. Nothing in the dossier has been proven true. Cohen was not charged with hacking the DNC. Manafort was not charged for conspiring with Russian spies or intelligence officers. Carter Page, who the FISA whs against, has not even been indicted for lifting sanctions quid pro quo deals, and Papadopulous, who we are told the whole investigation was started on, is already done with his sentencing and 14 days in jail. This is awful news for anyone that believed the dossier fairy tail. |
When you have a bunch of idiots getting triggered over a hat and attacking people over it.... 12 downvotes but no counter arguments made?
Come on I wanna see arguments |
They're both on the same spectrum.
But always interesting to hear from a Nazi apologist. For my own sanity I chose to believe you’re trolling.
This is actually a little scary. |
*store
Edit - downvoted?? Nobody else thinks this is a good story?? *too |
Is that racist? Definitely. |
Everyone should look at the work Manafort did for Podesta's lobbying firm What people should really look at is the art work John Podesta is into
Edit: someone please explain why I was downvoted on this? |
I just don’t see why mueller hasn’t charged anyone with conspiracy. It makes no sense. Unless he doesn’t have it but from everything we’ve learned it feels like he does He doesn’t. That’s why he hasn’t. The senate even said they found no direct evidence.
Lol @ people downvoting the facts. Get fucked wannabe amateur mueller sleuths |
I just don’t see why mueller hasn’t charged anyone with conspiracy. It makes no sense. Unless he doesn’t have it but from everything we’ve learned it feels like he does Take your pick of the excuses you’ll be seeing after the report comes out soon:
- There’s tons of circumstantial evidence of collusion just no smoking gun
- Mueller is a Republican and it looks like he decided to go easy on them
- Mueller is in some way compromised by Russia |
I just don’t see why mueller hasn’t charged anyone with conspiracy. It makes no sense. Unless he doesn’t have it but from everything we’ve learned it feels like he does Because he doesn’t. This is turning into a giant mess. |
Indeed, seeing this reposted every other day does get old. Why the downvotes? |
Why the downvotes? Apparently pointing out that something from 2017 may have been posted here before is gauche. |
When you have a bunch of idiots getting triggered over a hat and attacking people over it.... Don't be a cuck man. Damn the Pedes who are actually afraid of wearing their hats. Because you're going to be attacked by some purple haired beta? Oooooooh scary. Grow up, attack back. |
Seriously. Sanders will drag the party so far left that centrists and blue collar voters in the Midwest will run back to Democrat. The socialist label will sink him. Exactly. Anyone who busts their ass for a living isn’t down with the socialism |
republican is a stretch. he was literally viewed insane by the courts. which is not something that happens alot, the aurora gunman was not even considered insane. the shooter had to be medicated for months to even start trial as he was not mentally competent enough to understand it
also only 6 died It sucks you're being downvoted. Loughner is literally insane. There are plenty of murderous rightwing terrorists we can attach to Republicans, we don't need to attach JLL to them as well. |
While the economy has kept booming and the stock markets humming and uniformed and and unwashed masses keep screaming "Nazi!" at the top of their lungs, and there is a camera man or journalist at every corner to write or record with flowery picture or prose to show that this is the evil America, this is why we can't get by. But I wish to all who read this one day to wake up realize the lie. Im responding to my own post. I wrote this 13 minutes ago and it has at this time 222 DV and and dozens of comments, all with different words saying the same thing. I will say to you all, if you can't make it now, in this country, in this time, with the benefits afforded to you. You ancestors lived, struggled, and toiled in futility, you have it easier now than you ever had in this geographic location and this time. It will not get easier this this. We are at the crepuscule of a great age. It will only get tougher from here on out. The faux boogieman you've created is nothing compared to the hardships that follow. |
Labor is more expensive, it is that simple. If we paid American labor the same as Chinese labor, costs would be lower. You are right. Labor is sooo expensive in US compared to developing countries. However nobody wants to hear that.
Edit: Idiots who downvote me should do a basic google research and see it for themselves. Construction workers in US are super expensive compared to developing countries. It is also the reason why you can’t get any infrastructure project finished. |
They're all busy trying to get Bernie nominated so they can fuck up the 2020 election too. Ah, so anyone who's not a die-hard Democrat party supporter is a *politician promoted by Russia.
People are trying to say Russia is sowing discord, which they are, but then go and say their preferred party is ultimate and anyone else no matter if they're left or right is a troll. If the only thing wrong with Bernie is the I beside his name instead of a D then you really gotta ask yourself what your ideals actually are. Parties go through changes and the people inside the party change, so in 60 years are you still going to blindly support the same party for no reason? |
Wait what? You understand if a jury doesn’t convict him he can’t be retried. Double jeopardy man. You expect people around here to know anything about law? |
Thank you kind Redditor, for making me see the light. I've finally been driven over the edge, and am unsubbing from r/politicalhumor. Your life will be better for it |
"Anyone I disagree with is a Russian spy"
Do you want some tinfoil? Pretty much all they have anymore. The levels they dig these conspiracy theories too in this subreddit is incredible |
Pretty much all they have anymore. The levels they dig these conspiracy theories too in this subreddit is incredible It is easier to call people names and attack their character than it is to refute a logical argument. That is why the first thing these anti gun people do is call you a baby killer or a terrorist. They just are so clueless that facts scare them when the "narrative" is so easily dismantled. |
Yes, and the bernie bros are going to resort to their old tactics. Bernie or bust. This is his last chance and we aren't going to waste it. |
You can tax the rich all you want... They'll just save costs to compensate... At your expense.
Do you expect the greedy and wealthy to just pay the tax hike? Really? Isn't that the problem with them? They rob from the poor to pay themselves?
If you can't see how that'll backfire and have you stuck with the bill, that's on you.
They'll move their money elsewhere and invest less in the workforce.
I walked into a McDonald's the other day, and I got to choose between ordering on a touchscreen or giving my order to a girl with mental defficiencies that was hired to fill a diversity quota.
This concept has a basis in reality.
Edit: Oh, and my cheeseburger cost me 50% more than it did two years ago, yet likely was even cheaper to produce than it was two years ago.
I got pegged without demanding anything of them! I've tried explaining this to them. It doesn't fit their agenda to think it through.
Oh now, I got downvoted! The trauma! Just shows I'm right if you're digging this far to downvote me. |
I'm not actually going to watch anything from Douglas Murray, but I want to draw attention to this as an example of what I'm lampooning when I point out that a large percentage of the atheist community now believes in Jesus. >large percentage of the atheist community now believes in Jesus.
This behaviour is the natural response to being utterly blown the fuck out by the fedora meme for 10 consecutive years. The atheist movement was forced to admit that the thousands of years of ideation that preceded the conception of the secular, scientistic worldview (a mere blip in the history of human thought in comparison) had, and still has merit. |
Logic and critical thought are for racists and the societally privileged.
Didn't you get the memo? I guess I'll crank up my privileged racism. /s |
You're straw manning him. Obviously the Maduro regime's bad monetary policies contributed to the current state of Venezuela. That doesn't mean that the heightened sanctions by the US in 2017 didn't do a lot to exacerbate the problem and prevent recovery. We are their largest trading partner after all.
​ No point. Pure ideology here |
Memo....so...still nothing...yawn* Wake me up when someone is in jail and why. Thx. If anyone actually ends up in jail |
Excuse me what the fuck We live in a land where building a wall to possibly keep our country safer is deemed crazier than thinking there are more than 2 genders.
We live in a land where we think we should put more money into helping people kill their unborn than money we should spend protecting our country. |
Who did you vote for in the last European Commission elections? Couldn't agree more. People vote for person A to lead. Person A appointing another of their choice is not democracy. |
Inaction is what’s insane, I don’t know why people are scared of radical infrastructure projects in America the country is falling apart This tbh |
How did this change peoples mind to vote for trump Because these a crime manafort did, not Trump. We didn't hold it against Hillary when Vince Foster was killer in the White House. |
good thing the CIA doesn't do propaganda anymore lol Good thing obama didnt legalize the cia and military intelligence to run psyops on american citizens. |
Apparently if , could , yaaawwwwn Again, someone getting downvoting here just for disagreeing. We need a sub which isn’t 99% pro remain. This isn’t debate this is shutting down anyone who is sceptical of the EU.
I voted leave
but I wanted to so badly leave the unelected bureaucrats in the EU, I wanted to secure our borders as free movement and mass immigration from the Middle East has caused decay in what my county used to be. Why can’t this opinion be respected. I respect remainers wanting to be in the EU for reasons like peace keeping, trade deal, etc |
Nope, power is a new addition to the old definition in an attempt to change its meaning. According to Oxfords definition its still
"Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior".
Nothing about power, so the initial comment is correct. Thus anyone can be racist towards another person, power is not neccessary. And you can therefore be racist, just like anyone else. You’re mistaking prejudice for racism.
Sorry, but power is necessary for racism. |
Im sure disciplinary action will follow immediately. Do you reckon he'll fire Tom? Or just give him a slap on the wrist? Probably just ignore it, then go on the news and say how good their systems are. |
Yay, gender equality.
I'm actually **seriously** curious what the SJW feminent types have to say about this. Since this was one of the few actual quantifiable instances of governmental discrimination based solely on gender that was an actual policy. They are oddly quiet... |
Yikes. This sub isnt even political humor It's one-sided political messages, sometimes humorous, often not. |
Cool Venezeula next I wish! |
Twitter banned 2000 pro gov Venezuelan accounts, there is a propaganda campaign against Venezuela. I would assume people getting banned from r socialism are not on the side of the government, and are on the right.
Why do you think that deduction is absurd.
>Maduro supporters burning trucks full of humanitarian supplies?
I heard about the opposition burning it, because they want a humanitarian disaster to justify an invasion by the US.
I have also heard that there is opposition to American aid because American sanctions and the Venezuela right cause the shortages, and then aid is offered with strings attached - aid is a subtle form of imperialism.
Do you simultaneously believe that maduros supporters (the poor) are simultaneously starving and burning food:
If your narratives don't make sense, and you don't change based on evidence or logic, its you that is ideologically possessed. I’ve seen you defending this viewpoint on this sub before and I love it. Don’t stop bb |
So if the UK leaves the EU, Ireland will put up a sea border between itself and the EU and join the UKs Customs Union?
Well I take it that's what they mean by wont compromise on the peace process. That's not out of the realm and is part of one of the EU's contingency plans if Ireland does not enforce a border to protect the EU's single market.
Instead of checks occurring between the RoI and NI, checks would occur between the RoI and the continent of Europe.
Here are some articles for reading.
[Brexit: Border control could move to Europe
](https://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/ireland/brexit-border-control-could-move-to-europe-899440.html)
[Border checks at Irish ports if no Brexit deal, Humphreys says

So if the UK leaves the EU, Ireland will put up a sea border between itself and the EU and join the UKs Customs Union?
Well I take it that's what they mean by wont compromise on the peace process. Well they certainly wouldn't resort to expansionism and use bureaucracy to try to put unnecessary barriers between NI and the mainland. Oh wait... |
It's one-sided political messages, sometimes humorous, often not. It’s funny your comment is upvoted and the guy you replied to isn’t lol
Why the hell is this downvoted? Legitimate question. |
Which is really ironic since the americans have a similarly intransparent "no fly" list that you can also get on but hardly off...
Edit: Yeah, sue me, so what. I still think it's pretty thick coming from a state that implemented secret courts to circumvent the constituions call for a judges opinion. Lol, look at all the indignant Americans hardcore downvoting this guy for stating a simple empirical fact about them. They're evidently such great ppl we should trust them with policing the world. |
Really disgusting how Democrats have treated Bernie. First they steal all his ideas, then tell him to sit down and shut up because he's an "old white guy." How about showing some gratitude to the man who provided your platform? I think you want Trump to win again. |
Here in the US we like to make ourselves feel better about doing this kind of stuff by calling it “financial credit” but it’s basically the same effing thing... Not only this but, depending on the rules that are set (by the government) this might not be a bad thing.
Who wants trashy people on an airplane acting like the nightmarish Chinese tourists we've all read about?
It reminds me of a Daniel Tosh skit where he justifies the price of his tickets by basically saying the audience would thank him too if they thought about it; who wants people who can afford 10$ tickets? That's an amount you an find randomly in your pocket...
I wouldn't be surprised if next China comes up with a license to have children. If they do, they're ahead of the curve, imo. |
I know, still can't believe those conspiracy theorist idiots don't believe the Jussie Smollett incident. I think the media on both sides paint a picture of "if you aren't with us you are against us" type of message when in reality most people are moderate or simply don't care.
Fox News and CNN are now on the level of the bullshit meter to me now. Both networks provide drama and entertain rather than actual factual and unbiased news.
As a moderate that voted Democrat in 2016, I feel like exposing myself to Democrat news coverage is actually pushing me to the right. There is a lack of common sense in the type of shit that is being spewed out that was never this bad before Trump, that I think is ridiculous and I don't agree with. |

Is this sub just make shit up about the right and post it to circle jerk? Good lord lol Political subreddits in a nutshell. People here are mind bogglingly stupid. |
It has nothing to do with her skin color or gender if that’s what you believe in your little make believe world. She’s legitimately stupid and doesn’t even grasp basic economics. That is the victim defense mechanism the left uses when you don't agree with their unrealistic policies or ideals. Because they want the push back to be about some kind of superficial hate rather than disliking a horrible impractical idea. |
Smfh this isn’t even funny but sad.
There is more to politics than 2 sides making stupid jokes about one another. Shit make fun of both sides at the same time and try something new and actually productive to helping this county. Your making a lame joke that applies to maybe 3%-5% of total us population no matter what side your making fun of. Your taking the crazy of crazies and making them out to be everyone of that party.
Fuck both parties and the stupid memes that come from this sub that supports one side over another and act like it’s ok.
This is why we are losing our rights, freedoms, and most of all our dignity from the biased media outlets reporting commentary not news or facts, corporations that write the laws to provide themselves protects that take away consumers rights, and a 2 party political system that is a shit show of epic proportions that needs to be on a Murray povich/Jerry springer show.
But yes by all means please continue your extremely intelligent and robust memes of our current political state in hopes of your comedic genius stops the ills of your rival political party and change their ways. I’m sure it will work! This is very true but sadly people in this sub don’t see it this way. Same can be said for super conservative sites as well. It’s quite sad our country has become so divided. I hope we can start to raise a better generation that care about their country rather than arguing and fighting with opposing political groups all day. |
She’s made some really meme worthy comments. Doesn’t help her case at all, but she must be an intelligent person to achieve what she has in the time that she has done it. Her intelligence seems to be in media manipulation - she's the lefts version of Trump. |
Yeah they may even start sucker punching people they disagree with on college campuses! Next thing you know they'll be faking hate crimes. I had to chuckle when I read this response. It's hilarious a political side talking about the other side being dangerous, but they use actual physical violence and fake crimes to try and bolster their standing. I guess they've conveniently forgotten about a Bernie supporter shooting up a baseball field, too. |

There is a lack of common sense in the type of shit that is being spewed out that was never this bad before Trump, that I think is ridiculous and I don't agree with. As a Bernie supporter in 2015-16 I gave up on CNN and MSNBC early on in 2016 and switched to Fox News for my TV viewing. It’s far from perfect, but it’s still so much better than either of the other 2 when it comes to bias and reporting. The “liberal” networks refused to talk about Bernie or day *anything* negative about Clinton. If Fox News is propaganda then MSNBC and CNN are brainwashing.
Honestly my views on Bernie have changed more than Fox News. After Clinton and Democrats cheated him, defrauded his donors, elevated Trump, and subverted American democracy Bernie didn’t fight back. No, instead he fucking endorsed those who did all that. Sorry Bernie, but that’s unforgivable.
It’s unforgivable because democracy is the only way for us to impact anything. We need score voting ASAP because otherwise the 2 parties will continue to effectively extort us forever. |
No right-winger has ever sucker punched someone or faked a hate crime. Maybe you missed the point: neither side is perfect. Bad eggs are all over the place and as long as the divide keeps expanding due to an "us vs them" narrative, I don't see things getting better any time soon. |
Has nothing to do with race. WTF are you taking about?
And on cons it's not just about your credit score. Again, WTF are you taking talking about?
Yeah and Daniel Tosh's bit is comedy. Again, WTF are you talking about? Lmao did you think you could come into a thread about Chinese people and NOT somehow make it about white Americans being bad? Lolll welcome to “politics” |
Edit: trump loves communism and wants to take your guns so you can’t shoot him when he rapes your children How many Republican votes were needed for the facefucking called the ACA? Oh yeah 0 |
I’ve seen you defending this viewpoint on this sub before and I love it. Don’t stop bb Idk, arguing with people on a sub about Jordan Peterson probably won't go anywhere regardless of the topic. People that listen to that alt-right self help "guru" are typically not reasonable. |
Bernie endorced Clinton because it would have been party suicide if he hadn't. The only reason trump made it through the primaries is because he threatened to do the same thing to the Republican party.
Bernie is getting my vote again in 2020 because I believe in his policy. Just hope the DNC makes the right decision this time. I’m not going to support somebody who doesn’t value democracy more than single payer or ANY policy. Democracy is the only way for *us* to change anything including single payer, so Bernie betrayed us more than most seem to realize.
If you want the 1% to rule the world go ahead and support Bernie and the Democrats he loves so much.
It SHOULD have been party suicide. Democrats are dead. They are now fascists that want to control the country by elevating Trump, stealing peoples time and money, rigging elections, and toppling countries like Libya to effectively create slaves. |
The church, in my opinion, is the biggest thing propping up these backwards ideas. I've had a ton of friends go from reasonable people to delusional hate mongers after attending church.
Edit: thought I got misunderstood, but this post got brigaded, I think. This article explains perfectly why Christians blindly follow Trump. They have had authoritarian figures their entire lives, from strict fathers, clergy, and God. They were taught to never question these authorities, therefore, never learning critical thinking skills.

Buttery males! I love it coming from Schiff's mouth. By Reddit rules, what Schiff said is whataboutism. I love how this gets comment gets downvoted but a comment like ... "Totally clears the president ... especially this late in the winter ... Covfefe boy, etc." are just chilling around. I guess that is whataboutism, too. We are now a mirror facing itself. |
I miss her, but for reasons like this, I'm kinda glad my mom died when she did. After 9/11 she became extremely xenophobic, very pro-military that only got worse after my brother joined the Marines. She would have been 1000% in for Trump and it kills me.
**e** I'm not at all proud that this thought has crossed my mind for the bad faith arguers out there. I miss my mom, and I wish she'd gotten a chance to change, but she did die with us still on good terms, which I don't think I'd be able to say if she were still alive.
**e2** thank fuck reddit isn't my therapist Hey, I'm in the same boat as you. My dad grew up listening to Rush Limbough religiously since before I was born. He passed way from cancer last year. I tried not to talk about poitics to him but it has heated up this past year so much that I think it would have caused a rift between us. |
Agreed. She's sharp as a tack. Anyone who believes otherwise isn't paying attention. The right are clearly insane. |
A significant number of Sanders supporters didn’t vote for Clinton (and 1/10 voted for Trump). That decided the election.
Show me someone who thinks Trump is closer to Sanders than Clinton is, and I’ll show you someone who doesn’t understand anything about politics.
PUMA PAC aside, you didn’t get that level of cross-voting from Clinton supporters in 08. They wanted Obama replaced with Clinton, but they didn’t want McCain to win.
Besides, Sanders whole “will he, won’t he” song and dance leading up to the convention was ridiculous for someone who got trounced in the primary. Sanders voters and Sanders himself caused the largest unforced error that gave us what we have today. And Bernie is going to do it again. |
I like the letter. People are becoming way to PC without using facts and it backfired on them. Nothing is further from "facts" than this letter. |
Totally agree. I was actually thinking that as I typed that. There’s nothing conservative about these fucks. They're mostly bullheaded wimps at this point. People really find it hard to forgive others for being wrong than being right. |
Geez this sub is an unfunny wreck I hate trump and I can admit this post was wack af |
If the "smoking gun" was there, it would have been leaked a long time ago well, to be fair, a half dozen 'smoking guns' have been leaked
none of them were real and meuller's team even outright refuted a few |
But what about the lives that get fired because the company can't afford to keep them? You are using "math", that is not allowed. You must only use feelings and emotion. |
So you have no moral backbone unless you take an extreme ideological political stance?
I know being towards the center isn’t in fashion on the left or right atm, but I thought the point of this sub was to mock people who are so die-hard committed to “centrism” they ignore that some debates obviously have a correct side?
If it’s just to mock moderates then I’ve obviously misunderstood
Edit: you call out where this once-funny sub is heading and you get flooded with rick and morty references and /iamverysmart accusations... never mind, I’ll go ahead and unsub 👍 Yep. Same.
I thought this was a sub where people mock the "both sides" rationalizations around trumpism and the burgeoning fascism of the right. Apparently it's just a place for extremists to shit on moderates. |

Here in the US we like to make ourselves feel better about doing this kind of stuff by calling it “financial credit” but it’s basically the same effing thing... Also, most states have a point system where you accumulate in infractions to a certain number and then your license to drive is revoked. This is just a wider use of that type of system. |
I am a Trump supporter. I know Manafort is a POS. With all these crimes he committed I hope he does a whole life sentence.
What I want to know. Is why a large chunk of people here view Republicans as a problem? We have check and balances for a reason. It happens every election cycle, the opposite party wins in Congress. As I read some of these comments, it seems many are borderline on committing acts of violence just because of some guy in a chair for 4 years?
I think people lose sight of that. He is not there forever. If your next candidate wins, he can undo everything.
WE NEED TO STICK TOGETHER AS AMERICANS! It feels like divide and conquer is the name of the game right now. Which is sad so many people are playing right along hating their brothers and sisters. It feels like our country is getting played. I agree: WE NEED TO STICK TOGETHER AS AMERICANS. |
why can't Haiti ever get it together? Many, many reasons. Some historical and some contemporary and some geographically. If I were to make a guess, their biggest problems stem from a victim mentality. They certainly have been victims of a lot of crap throughout their history, but they just can't put it behind them and move on. |
> I'm not sure if it's the GRU this time, or if it's Iran again (still surprised they wound up being one of the troll farms). Maybe Macedonia again?
Maybe. Definitely a lot of folks from ESS along with their fellow travelers. I wonder if they don't realize how obvious they are, or just don't care.
Edit: From 4 to -6. Hi ESS! 🙋♀️
Edit: -10 now. Keep it up guys, this will make Bernie lose and unite the left for sure! You're doing God's work, friends.
Edit: -18! Nice work, you got this, 2020 is won!
Since I have your attention:
I'm a middle-aged female Bernie supporter in California who convinced her son and his girlfriend in Michigan to vote for Hillary Clinton. I am not a Bernie Bro, no matter how often I've been called one *by your cohort*. I am a progressive and I for the most part get along with everyone. However, I am calling bullshit that there haven't been bad actors on both sides. YES I am both sidesing right now. The very fact that this is being brigaded is just an extension of that behavior. You guys sow more division than the right-wing trolls, so congrats on that, I guess? You're just proving the point.
Anyway, hope y'all have a great night, Monday fast approaches. |

It's my opinion that people who hold these types of intense grudges this long aren't right in the head. |
The "very bad deal" is not "crashing out". She dog whistling. She’s painting Westminster as something which is responsible for Scotland’s difficulties. This Catch 22 is a win win for her own independence arguments. |
Ehh, Bernie's supporters were never really the toxic type. I went to one of his rallies and it was a fucking party lol. Not really any of those staunch social justice warrior types. A lot of his supporters (such as myself) eased off of the left side of politics a little after the election.. the ones who harass people are like Antifa, mostly vehement Hillary supporters or tbh, people who didn't even vote in the primary and certainly not in the election. All the people screaming in the streets about Kavanaugh, MAGA hats, take down whitey... those aren't his supporters and never were > Ehh, Bernie's supporters were never really the toxic type.
lolwat? They were incredibly toxic, they even put me off from being a Sanders supporter, he's like the left's version of Trump. |
Sorry, but as a guest he was acting like a smug child in that interview. Tucker didn't help by losing his cool, but the interviewee was disrespectful as hell. I think Tucker is a tool, but he was right about the top marginal tax rates when he said that it wasn’t as simple as “prosperity from 90% tax rates” and that the global economy was different back then. |
Sorry, but as a guest he was acting like a smug child in that interview. Tucker didn't help by losing his cool, but the interviewee was disrespectful as hell. Don’t bother trying to point it out. I tried in the other thread and got downvoted to oblivion for not treating Rutger as a god.
Rutger went in there with an axe to grind and a plan.
Then again you get a really good idea of the type of people here by seeing how they refuse to acknowledge Rutgers behavior wasn’t the best or find ways to justify it. |
Robert Kraft was videoed raping a trafficked sex slave. They're all rapists. Why did you lie? |
Starve your muscles? What do you mean? Are you referring to the ketogenic diet? I *really* don't think that's a fair characterization of the diet and Joe certainly issues plenty of disclaimers that he has simply chosen this diet for himself and that others may or may not react positively. I would not say that Joe's agenda includes prosthelytizing the ketogenic diet.
edit: what are the downvotes for? I'm simply asking a clarifying question. That’s what happens here when you don’t completely agree with the poster. Simply because Jordan Peterson was involved in someway, Joe Rogan is now the devil and you defended him. I’ll take those downvotes now. |
Obviously he believes childhood vaccines cause autism. I have not seen any conclusive data that proves this. But I do love Ben and anything against the FDA & Big Pharma. Infowar has done hours of this research they Have A secret list of the Amount being Sued every year that The VP is Incharge of .. Go look or not |
I remember when he told his supporters to support Hillary and to go out and vote for her because trump is the worst thing for this country. A bunch of them chose to not vote, vote independent, or just vote trump out of spite. Great crowd... I smell a repeat of 2016. I like Bernie and think he’s make a decent President but if he doesn’t make it out the primaries, I’m personally not one to throw a tantrum like a kid...
But how many of his supporters have really grown up? Oh, well. I guess we’ll find out. |
"I'm giving you this shitty position because your dad prefered smoking weed over paying for your education and you're too stupid to develop yourself." Or his Dad worked hard, built a company & can hire whoever he damn well pleases. Boohoo if yours didn't. |
I judge Trump by the people who support him, it's only fair I do the same for Bernie. This is 1000% fair to say, and I hate Trump. Pipe dreams of a socialist America are just as unrealistic as it being a haven for shithouse nazis. We're going to America up, and show people how we can be fair, work hard, make money, and clean up when it comes to globalization, period. The next candidate needs a plan for that. Not a plan for how that doesn't exist. |
Lol. If a bus load of you showed up, I think even Anericans would want to come back later. Ya, this nigga racist. |
Do people seriously care that an old, single guy paid to get a hand job? I can't stand the Patriots like most other people but I have a hard time caring about this one. If human sex trafficking is involved then it would change my perspective. No, but they have to pretend they care because he knows Trump |
Damn I thought I’d at least have to wait the night to get a reaction I liked it dank i have a sense of humour |
The money is one thing, but there's a deeper problem from which it stems: private concentrations of control over production. We need collective control and the abolition of private property (meaning property used to produce things) to fundamentally end imbalances like you describe. I'd like to point out to any reactionaries reading this that private property and personal property are completely different things. Read up on socialism before you come down on it. |
This was a major fuck up on the part of the ATF and FBI...but it's well documented that Koresh and his crew set the fire.
Edit: this reminds me of why libertarians never win elections, there are surveillance tapes of them being ordered to spread gasoline. A blaze doesn't start that fast without an accelerate, Koresh was already critically wounded and wanted to bring about his own apocalypse. You don't have to ignore that reality simply because the ATF should have never raided it in the first place. This is the ignoring reality bullshit that drove nutjob McVeigh to kill innocent people in Oklahoma City. "documented" like the holocaust? |
Neo-liberals are capitalists. Capitalists are right-wing. Do the math, genius.
Don’t fault me because you thoughtlessly chose to adopt a narrow-minded “worldview” which exclusively revolves around blue-flavored capitalist propaganda. This sub is so interesting. The people here just attack strawman “tankies” and refuse to ever seriously consider criticism of the status quo. If the argument “‘socialism’ bad because USSR bad” were so bullet proof, *why are there still socialists?* Oh yeah, it’s because that argument is part state propaganda and part fucking bullshit, and more and more people are realizing that we shouldn’t take it at face value. And on top of that they seriously believe neoliberalism is lefty because it’s got “liberal” in the name. Like, they are literally incorrect??!! Liberal doesn’t even always mean lefty. I guess they’ve got a liberal definition of it 😭
It’s so painful and distressing, I just want to slap them all across the face with a copy of Das Kapital. |
Trumps economy progress seems to show witch party is more educated and actually cares about minorities. Oof. Nuclear launch detected. For real though numbers dont lie. Shit is way better for your average America today then anytime in the last 15+ years. Nice to have a President that puts the people first |
Is it true that the NATO intervention in Libya was caused primarily by Sarkozy trying to destroy the evidence of Gaddafi's illegal funding of his 2007 Presidential campaign? He was also trying to stop Qadafi from creating an african petro-currency |
