It's so depressing that people actually just support Biden because they vote based on associations and imaginary other voters instead of just voting for the person they want. Like anyone really thinks the solution to defeat Trump is another out of touch oaf who is promising to change nothing. If we are all gonna die why does it have to take so long and be so existentially painful? |

It's very clear that vis isn't palling around with the far left. The far left is basically almost entirely Sanders > Warren > kill me people. Gabbard is heavily criticised by them. Her big supporters are basically...uh..Jimmy Dore? Who is also considered an idiot by many on the left. The thing is that the far left is a bunch of infighting where everyone hates everyone and the only person everyone agrees on is Bernie. |

The air force, which she has been a member of for years while also being a high profile government official, has a division, OSI, specifically for investigating things like that and had something been rumored for years you can likely assume they would have looked into it. It's so hilariously unlikely compared to her just being against imperialism, which Russia approves of because less states with US puppets is good for them. |

She is currently an officer in the US military! Nobody has been calling her a Russian asset, just criticising her for meeting with Assad and Modi, etc. The Democrats are generally anti war?! What fucking world is that? For every Barbara Lee you have a Ron Paul, and the establishment of both sides always goes for war. |

| Nrrr 08/06/19 7:01:55 PM #491 | The same people who are for the massive proliferation of guns in this country are also against any attempt to address a single one of the issues people theorize contribute to our violent culture. So when they tell you that you cannot just take away the guns, and you cannot actually solve any of the problems with our competitive, uncaring, misogynistic, racist, alienating, scared and lonely society, they aren't seriously concerned with fixing the issue. The facists right rejects the idea that our problems are with our society itself, and choose to push the blame on the other. Just like they think the solution on immigration is dehumanize, to lock everyone up, and brutalize them, the solution to Islamic terror is to dehumanize, to lock everyone up, and brutalize them. The solution to poverty is to dehumanize, to lock everyone up, and brutalize them. The solution to gun deaths is to dehumanize the mentally ill, to lock them up, and brutalize them. They never have any other solution to any problem. They think crimes are something you defeat, not something you can prevent. They think guns make them more safe because they feel safer having one, not because they actually think it makes society more safe. They don't care about society. You will never make corrik give a shit about anyone elses life. |

| Nrrr 08/05/19 8:34:15 AM #201 | Infowars is a government operation that blends true and false information to confuse, radicalize, and discredit. Molyneux is a grifter. Trump and the three of them all have the same goals. At the risk of seeming ridiculous, Metal gear solid 2 was a great predictor of our situation. The powerful attempt to deluge us with information, so much nobody knows what is true or false, in order to control society. If you aren't serious about destroying our inequal capitalist system and preventing climate change, you are indistinguishable. These reactionary beliefs and liberals refusal to combat anything important will be the death of us all. |
| Topic | Shooting in El Paso, looks like 20 dead |
| Nrrr 08/05/19 2:43:07 AM #451 | When a right winger commits political acts of terror, it is largely directed against civilian populations for the purpose of creating a climate of fear, resentment, and rage to further their goals. While you will hear some people say 'I abhor this shooting' etc, The right winger believes that these violent events send a message to the political target (women, religious minorities, racial minorities), in the case of El Paso, the message right wingers hope to be received is that Hispanics should know this is their country, and if you come here you are at risk, and not welcome. They may lament the innocent lives lost, but they believe the event could be useful to their cause. Another notable example of right wing political violence on Innocents is the Police, with the purpose being dual fold: enforce private property and maintain capitalism and inequality without much of a fuss, and punish minorities and maintain slavery and a racially uneven society. There is nothing useful to the left wing to be found in the Dayton killing. Left wing political acts of terror are almost always directed at the government, police, soldiers, or corporations. There is nothing gained for the left wing cause by attacking large groups of civilians, which is why you never see it. When antifa assaults Nazi rallies, they are fighting facists, as the goal of defeating facism is a left wing goal. |
| Topic | Shooting in El Paso, looks like 20 dead |
| Nrrr 08/05/19 1:20:41 AM #446 | Liberals can easily be fascists. All it takes is to focus on suppressing the left instead of fighting rising facism, which is the choice liberals always make and the reason facism inevitably takes hold in a decaying empire. When facism is upon you, the contradictions and alienation of capitalism will be met with three opposing cries by the people: help the workers through socialism, maintain the system that resulted in this situation in the first place, and facism. The liberals will prefer facism, which maintains their own accumulated wealth and power, rather than risk it to fight the facists. The facists choose to indulge in their fears and bigotry and turn it against the others they blame for their problems, for they lack a clarity of class consciousness to properly direct their animosity. The socialists will suggest that we change the system completely to eliminate all of these issues and to avoid people turning to facism, and by ignoring them the liberals empower the facists. History is a perfect circle of hell we are trapped in. |

| Nrrr 08/04/19 8:45:46 PM #352 | Paratroopa1 posted... Antifa isn't an organization, antifa is anyone who participates in anti-fascist action, which to be clear, is a good thing. Fascism is bad. Antifa is good. This is exactly why it is extremely deadly concerning that they are trying to designate antifa a terrorist organization. It isn't an organization at all - so what they are really trying to do is make it so that they can arrest or kill anyone under the guise of them being antifa for merely fighting fascism. If you are against fascism, you will be branded a terrorist. This is a country that sends terrorists to secret prisons where you can be legally tortured and the key will be thrown away without a trial. But the right wing is concerned about the folks throwing milk shakes at literal Nazi rallies, the people saying yes let's do genocides. Very concerned with stopping violence and very worried about big government! |

| Nrrr 08/04/19 8:40:23 PM #188 | Gabbard comes from a conservative background, and it's both her biggest strength and liability. She is really good at appealing to conservatives and ind about issues the left cares about. But the left (rightfully) does not trust her because of her right wing associations. I think she would probably be a president who everyone agreed and disagreed with pretty often, and that's why she will struggle to ever find support. |

Stop being disingenuous. There is no evidence whatsoever that this guy, even if you operate under the assumption that is his Twitter, did the shooting to further leftist causes or was fighting fascism. Every single one of these terrorists, the right spreads disinformation that the shooting is related to antifa, including the actual police. However whenever anyone says uh they have a right wing manifesto saying they hate women or Muslims or immigrants and that's why they did it, it is always let's not talk politics and make this political. Sorry, the feds are political. The cops are political. Your boss is political. Your landlord is political. Not making things political is de facto supporting the status quo. If you are right wing, you are advocating to make the world less equal, more violent. If you are neutral you are doing the same, because the right wing is doing both of those things successfully in the current system. If you aren't political and supporting the left wing, you don't give a shit about even beginning to address any of the causes of violence in this country and around the world and if you worry about antifa, you know that you are a fascist or "neutral" and deserve to fear them. |

Whereas Soju is like $1-2 a bottle, and their "beer" is also, you'll almost always pay more for imported liquor or craft beer than typical in the US. I have seen cheap local craft beer often but not local gin or anything. |

They are saying no, based on them getting to pick which polling outfits they are choosing from (he was not included in most polling outfits polls, but did hit 1% in some that included him) but the qualifications were to hit the polling threshold OR the donor threshold, or those seven would also not qualify if you needed both. |

| Nrrr 08/02/19 7:03:53 PM #8 | I hate the state completely. Weather is awful. Retirees, toll roads, tacky tourist bullshit. Everyone is from somewhere else, it has no culture of it's own. The north is the south, the center is Disney hell, and the south is full of rich Cuban expats who are mad Castro took their slave plantation away. But by far Orlando metro is the worst part of the state, a dreadful city that is basically non-existent and largely just gigantic suburban sprawl to support the Disney swamp at low wages. Everyone hates living there except the old boomers who love shit like Margaritaville unironically and wear socks with sandals. If you think wearing t shirts with flamingos in sunglasses that says some live laugh love shit on it is great instead of tacky and embarrassing, Florida is for you! |

I was once at a party and playing a game where people had to imitate Trump's voice, which is actually very high pitched and whiny, but everyone made him sound really tough and manly. His false tough guy routine resonates - despite obviously being a very effeminate prissy rich guy. |

Whenever they show any mental lapse, it's with some line they memorized, and that can easily be clunky for anyone at any age. Other candidates do it too, it just doesn't set anything off. Off the cuff they seem perfectly sharp. The difference is that Bernie is arguably at his best off the cuff, while Bidens off be cuff moments are what they try very hard to avoid. |

They pass a single-payer healthcare system and abolish private health insurance. This is even more hated by the public than Obamacare was and leads to the GOP controlling Congress and the presidency by 2024. Are you not at all worried they would abolish the system and take away everyone's healthcare with no replacement plan? If they couldn't manage that, would having them in charge of the entire US medical system not worry you at all? Why are you asking people to respond to a nonsense scenario? One, the fact a good thing might get potentially undone is no reason not to fight for it. Two, if reactionaries want to undo a popular social program....not a good track record of that happening. Universal social programs are loved. |

| Nrrr 07/31/19 8:16:46 AM #2 | I don't recall the exact amount. But in college I had two very good friends that lied to me and used me for a lot of money that I at first thought was helping them for various reasons and would be paid back but eventually knew was because they were drug addicts and they were using me. At the time I was extremely vulnerable and had nobody else and I still helped them, which only further hurt us all in the long run. I would still always try my best to help my close friends but I learned that sometimes the way to help isn't always so straight forward. I never got any of it back, but I am cordial with one of them after we apologized to each other and explained our situations later on. I don't regret any of it though. Mistakes are how we grow. |

You just hate the disadvantaged instead of the powerful, and that's useless to enacting change and exactly how republicans feel. |
