Honestly this sub forum is worse than Reddit.

Filled with pseudo-intellectuals.

Just troll these faggots and be on with your day, it doesn’t matter what their response is going to be, it never will.

Yes. Old vs destroying democracy is an important distinction to make


Wasting energy distinguishing between two bags of shit. Just because one of the bags is not on fire doesn't mean its good :D

There are definitely better options.

But being old isn't as bad as wanting to stop the entire democracy


Do you actually believe this?

I think it’s more likely that democrats actually cheated the ballots and really lost in 2020 than the claim that Trump tried to overthrow the gov is true. Cuz lets face it, if he actually tried a lot of people would’ve been involved

He does so here's some opinions from George Carlin who I think summed up American politics well. He was a liberal democrat by the way.

Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don’t. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls. They got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. They got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying. Lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else, but I’ll tell you what they don’t want. They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That’s against their interests. That’s right.”

“Sooner or later the people in this country are going to realize: the government does not give a fuck about them. The government doesn’t care about you, or your children, or your rights, or your welfare, or your safety. It simply doesn’t give a fuck about you. It’s interested in its own power. That’s the only thing keeping it and expanding it wherever possible.”

“Political correctness is America’s newest form of intolerance, and it is especially pernicious because it comes disguised as tolerance. It presents itself as fairness, yet attempts to restrict and control people’s language with strict codes and rigid rules. I’m not sure that’s the way to fight discrimination. I’m not sure silencing people or forcing them to alter their speech is the best method for solving problems that go much deeper than speech.”

“For myself, I have solved this political dilemma in a very direct way. On Election Day, I stay home. Two reasons: first of all, voting is meaningless; this country was bought and paid for a long time ago. That empty shit they shuffle around and repackage every four years doesn’t mean a thing. Second, I don’t vote, because I firmly believe that if you vote, you have no right to complain. I know some people like to twist that around and say, ‘If you don’t vote, you have no right to complain.’ But where’s the logic in that? Think it through: If you vote, and you elect dishonest, incompetent politicians, and you screw things up, then you’re responsible for what they’ve done. You voted them in. You caused the problem. You have no right to complain. I, on the other hand, who did not vote—who, in fact, did not even leave the house on Election Day—am in no way responsible for what these politicians have done and have every right to complain about the mess you created. Which I had nothing to do with. Why can’t people see that?”

“Now, there's one thing you might have noticed I don't complain about: politicians. Everybody complains about politicians. Everybody says they suck. Well, where do people think these politicians come from? They don't fall out of the sky. They don't pass through a membrane from another reality. They come from American parents and American families, American homes, American schools, American churches, American businesses and American universities, and they are elected by American citizens. This is the best we can do folks. This is what we have to offer. It's what our system produces: Garbage in, garbage out. If you have selfish, ignorant citizens, you're going to get selfish, ignorant leaders. Term limits ain't going to do any good; you're just going to end up with a brand new bunch of selfish, ignorant Americans. So, maybe, maybe, maybe, it's not the politicians who suck. Maybe something else sucks around here... like, the public. Yeah, the public sucks. There's a nice campaign slogan for somebody: 'The Public Sucks. F*ck Hope.”

This is about as low iq as it gets.

Find where I said one is good.

You can't, and it suggests something about your priorities that you're this desperate to call them equal

Comparing two incapable president elects is futile. That is the point.
People should be conceened about what a leader can do for them. Not what did the other guy do that was awful.
Attacking me doesn't make the whole situation any less dumb.

Equally? No. Biden didn't try to overthrow an election.

Both are bad. One side is dramatically worse.


trillions time worse ....

Quote (Prox1m1ty @ Dec 23 2023 12:49pm)
Its not about who is worse. The point is they are both shit.

And everyone is trapped in the partisan politics rather than saying, "wait, both these dudes are fucked"


trump represents revenge for election fraud, covid kookery and iNsUrEcTiOn farce

Here's the thing about TDS.
TDS is applied as a suppository. These people keep cramming as much TDS as fits up their ass until it starts overflowing and bursting inside of them. At first, they might squirm with a little discomfort from TDS as they sit and tell lines they know are lies to the camera, just because it panders and generates clicks. But how much TDS can one cram up their butthole before they start getting accustomed to it, before they adapt to it and truly internalize it? Then the TDS becomes a way of life. They don't have to question their own beliefs and whether the TDS is false or unjustified or lacking context or any other excuse. With enough TDS in your system, it simply is


turns out TDS is the new normal :)
