Controversial General Political Discussion

[Toby D. Dog]

My prayers in particular also wouldn’t be heard in church

Even as a non believer, i pray we can move forward as a country and find a way to actually stand for human rights and economic justice.

This sounds like conservatives who send their prayers every time there is a school massacre

Clowns who think that Trump is gonna withdraw from funding Tsahal are delusional MAGATs.

Dude, are you actually comparing me to those guys?

No but these prayers kinda give me the ick. My point would be that you guys should join some lefty groups and do some protest in the way that you want. Because your country is becoming more and more authoritarian day by day and you may never live under a democracy again.

Don't go thinking that this is all alright because everyone got used to it.

U questioning my leftist credentials?

I'm not questioning your leftism. I'm questioning your bravery.

Prayers give me the ick, actions gives everyone hope to keep resisting.

Anyway, if I recall correctly and correct me if I'm wrong, you're from Venezuela right ?

The idea that POTUS could decide to deport you someday probably crossed your mind.

Don't you think it would be too late by then ?

kindly go fuck yourself. I'm not Venezuelan and it's easy for you to question my decisions when you don't even fucking know what I do on a daily basis.

Don't assume who I am or what I am solely based on me wishing for better conditions for me and those around me.

Well I forgot what you are because I haven’t posted here in a while kinda.

You do stuff then ? Good then. Don’t need to go any deeper.

Sexual scandals? You mean pedophilia?

 

[Jesse Pinkman]

This is a weeb forum, not a church. Your prayers won’t be heard here my dude.




Last time in 2017 he left the Donnie government for another whim. This doesn’t look like a bid deal for now. But POTUS vs Richest man in the world is always good for enterntainment

Ya I remember that he realised Donnie doesn’t believe in Climate change . Either way no sympathy for him he is equally complicit in electing the buggy .

I think he does have American citizenship so what are you on about?

Also a Democrat who is bothered by other people praying, nothing new under the Sun.

May I ask what your stance is on things other than simplifying your position to Democrats? That’s a very generic thing to throw around just as the two party system.

If you wanna treat politics like sports teams (red vs blue) that’s your call. But things are far more nuanced and regardless of party line, it shouldn’t make you a sheep by believing whatever our elected officials tell us right?

Do you approve of everything this administration is doing?

He is a Trump fan that masquerades as a communist. He used to hate Elon Musk and then started liking him when he joined with Trump. Overall just a fraud and unsuccessful troll.

Half of your posts here are ad hominem attacks and appeals to emotion, yet you say I am simplifying my position on Democrats?

Of course anyone who doesn't like Democrats cannot have left-wing positions, since they incarnate these values so well.

you may never live under a democracy again

Have they ever?!
The US has always been a total fake, democracy fake, American dream a big fat lie etc. It's time for them to wake up to the reality that their 200 year old country would be nothing without the constant involvement in and creation of global wars. And at the end of the day their country is built on stolen land and genocide, not hard work or God's will or whatever they're deluding themselves to believe.

Whatever they believe in, what is coming is worse than the current states of affairs.

Cornstar bribery was a scandal I guess. And at this point he’d need to really innovate his trumpism to make me even rise my eyebrows

 

[ShinmenTakezo]

It's definitely not a pretend.


If I have to sum up US actions recently then goal is very clear:


Trump is trying to reposition the US from being the global economic enabler which costed them alot to being a strategically self-reliant superpower, even if it means breaking existing world order.

US is trying to become a self - reliant economic fortress which engages with the World at it's own self - reliant terms.

In short term, this path would definitely lead to chaos and hardship. People will struggle and resistance would mount from both within and outside the US.

But, tbh, the fundamentals of US economy are strong enough to overcome this.

It's the transition where real catch lies and where I feel Trump hard hand approach could become a massive problem.


He's forcing it down like kind of shock therapy instead of gradual transition and we all know what happens with such approach especially when he's not enjoying public support at that scale....big firms can't be coerced and pressuring them could lead to relocation, allies would be alienated with hardly any room for error.

His path is high risks, high gains

And, considering how he doesn't enjoy that much public support - I really feel he should tone down his approach - not path but approach to accomodate concerns

Elon’s mind seems to be over doing mental gymnastics between if he should defend climate change studies or hating transgenders. It worked for a while, he JK Rowled this so well that the big reason why he joined Trump was because of THEY/THEM and business obviously

I may have missed his other shit opinions though
