Controversial General Political Discussion

[Toby D. Dog]

You’re only proving his point by responding in that manner

It's the truth bro. Such a black and white view on something like this is proof enough.

I don’t know them and haven’t interacted with them much so I can’t say from a personal standpoint but nuance is something we can use a lot more of in the world.

I personally don’t consider myself to have a political alignment as I believe ethics are more important than politics. I only engage in political discussion because sometimes politics overlap with my ethics.

Do you make up your mind on an issue on a case by case basis?

I’ve talked to sensible and delusional people from both ballparks. Poison is too easily sold to the masses.

As things currently stand, both don’t really offer much. If someone were to take a moderate and middle path they’re shut down for being weak and not choosing a side when both sides have become essentially sports fandoms. I don’t see how Zoro fans and Sanji fans differ much from hardcore conservatives and liberals in terms of psychology lol. Just that the Z/S fans are too invested into fiction in comparison.

Always hilarious to see Democrats having a meltdown over something they accuse their counterparts of doing. As Malcom X put it they’re wolves in sheep’s clothing.

Just remember how they positioned about slavery and what race they claim to defend nowadays.

Zoro is conservative though

You aren’t wrong. It’s sad when we’ve reached the point to where people meme on “nuance” when it should be applied to so many more things. This is why I reject even being a moderate or anywhere in between being a leftist or a right winger. My ethics shape how I view things and it just so happens that sometimes they align with the left or the right and other times, neither.

I’m not here to question your beliefs but the world is not so black and white.

And here you take his statement as black and white.

His statement doesn't apply to all but safely can say it applies to majority.

My biggest bone to pick with the democratic party is how they have done all these people in these inner cities. I do feel like people are coming around and seeing it now though. Especially black men.

I don’t laugh in this thread that often but you got me

 

[Herrera95]

The point you made about liberals getting angry. Tho on a serious note it only applies when it comes to certain issues, conservatives get equally dense when it comes to other things.

Give an example I fail to see

I think it is worldwide phenomenon to have inner cities people more conservative and capital people more leftists even if the capital is still majority conservative.

Big time disagree. People should say what they mean. Yes you can interpret things especially from people you’re familiar with but when you’re speaking to people you don’t normally interact with, you need to speak what you mean. You can’t depend on people to “know what you mean”. Say what you mean.

Yeah it’s by intentional design so that there’s a stalemate in the minds of the US populace and nothing gets done really. Same issues still persist whether you got the conservative puppets or liberal puppets in power. Most normal people aren’t going to sway hard either way.

Sorry but I didn't understood your point

Did you watch the video I shared the other day? I really liked what the man said regardless of the party vote the incumbents out because they haven't done anything for you and show them if they want your vote it'll have to be earned. It's an issue with a two-party system that is hard to get around.

Nah stop that. People are different and think different.

If anything blames the people paying some of those groups to purposely harm a nation. Like the stop the oil group clearly paid by Russians to destroy the western world.

Kinda funny, Because he just got done saying the World isn't Black and White... But now you must say exactly what you mean, No hidden meanings no implied messages, nothing. Hypocritical No?!

 

[Z-Saber]

My point is simply that if you're talking to someone new, you can't rely on them to know what you mean because they're not familiar with you.

How else is anyone supposed to take what you said?

I subscribe to the "To anger a Conservative, Tell him a lie. To anger a Liberal, Tell him the Truth."

You made a black and white statement. Where in what you said is there any "hidden meaning"? I'm simply telling you to speak directly when addressing people you don't know.

Bro, this comes from a damn meme. FFS Get over it.

You're the one who went and dragged it out. Don't play the victim now. I'm unaware of what meme you're even referring to. You're just mad because you were called out. If you knew it came from a meme then I don't even know why you went on to keep this going by calling me a hypocrite in the first place.

You're quiet laughable. I'm done with you.

Quite*. Go off. Stick with your 2 dimensional view. Imagine getting this ass hurt.

You got your ass hurt first, bucko. Now look who's playing the victim. Got anything else?
