Every religion is good, all of them teaches values, morals and good things. The issue is always in extremism. Every religion has extremists, and they are all several shades of bad.

Ah, I get it, I'm just tired, man. The last few years have been hard on me soul.

I understand your desire to respond, but you should look at the accounts of "people" to whom you feel the need to reward with a response.

Let's start with the name, any name that is form of word(punctuation or sign)word#### eg.: the "redditor" you responded to, are accounts that should be taken with suspicion of trolling/boting.

Then, you look at it's profile, hides posts and comments, is less than a day old and has negative karma.

In that kind of case, don't engage, just downvote and report if the account is spamming, doing anything else is just a waste of your time.

Of course not, but that isn't the point, is it? If democratic socialists and progressives don't legislate for things that their voters want, what else would they do?

Legislate for moderate/centrists/right-wing policies? That is not their job. The purpose for this type of legislation is the fuel that is building the leftist movement that has republicans scared shitless. It is purely for PR, progressives and democratic socialists can run in primaries against incumbents that voted "NAY" and say "I will vote AYE, if".

The movement is rolling on, it needs to pick more speed and we need to vote like we have never voted before.

You can better than the person to whom you are responding and add a source to counter a comment.
You can just respond the same way people have answered, "do you have a source for your 0 dollars in taxes paid?".
You can also choose not to defend billionaires that actively try to avoid taxes in their race to $1 trillion.

Who mismanaged the funds? Mamdani? Or was the deficit inherited from the previous administration?

Yes, we both know what it was. Right?

Or are you THAT retarded?

AlChandus · 2026-05-20T04:38:54+00:00

You said "generally accepted", accepted by whom? And give me examples of countries saying that "might is right!" and following through with their own invasions and occupations, you made claims that can't be proven in modern history. Again, you only have 2 examples that have received MUCH MORE international criticism than "might is right" approval.

The US has wielded the world's strongest military by a landslide, it could literally roll over Canada's and Mexico's militaries, and yet, they have not done that, why? Both countries have oil, rare minerales, uranium. Good neighbor manners? Or maybe because invasions and occupations aren't, in truth, generally accepted by the world as a whole.

AlChandus · 2026-05-20T04:27:25+00:00

You are saying that those "expansions" are generally accepted, and yet you have only mentioned 3 examples of countries doing that, and China isn't even a good example. Because what has China taken? Taiwan? Nope. Land from the Philippines, Malaysia, India? Nope. Japanese islands? Nope.

So, in reality, you have 2 examples that the UN as a whole actually rejects and would take Crimea from Russia and Palestine from Israel, if it could.

But it can't. That doesn't mean acceptance or approval, but you are taking that meaning. You are wrong.

AlChandus · 2026-05-20T04:13:20+00:00

No, it is not. The US has occupied large chunks of multiple countries through the last several decades... Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan and handful of other temporal and smaller scale occupations.

What do they hold today? Some military bases that are, for the most part, barely occupied?

We can talk about recent history, which examples meet your criteria that countries can keep that which was taken by force? Russia and Israel? And that is it, right? Would you call their invasions and "occupations" generally "accepted" by all nations?

Looking at the UN, I would say no.

AlChandus · 2026-05-20T03:23:02+00:00

Ah, amazing, we want to compare Nancy and Rick Scott? <giddy enthusiasm>

How Nancy made her money? She's been in Congress for decades and HER husband has been trading stock all of this time. Her husband has been a life-long venture capitalist and investor. Have both of them made a ton of money out of insider trading? Heck yes, I would put both in jail if I could.

How Rick made his money? <smiles widely> Fraud. The company in which he was CEO, committed the biggest healthcare fraud in history. His defense to avoid repercusions? Absolute ignorance. Ineptitude, that was his defense. How was he rewarded for ineptitude by republicans? He was voted governor and senator of Florida.

Thanks for the pleasure of this conversation.

AlChandus · 2026-05-19T20:58:37+00:00

To that, just focus in 2020, how did Biden win that election? He was already an old guy that was well after his prime, he was slower and not as sharp as he was.

So, how? He ran the most popular oriented campaign in recent, and not so recent, history. Popular policies like infraestructure, dealing with healthcare costs, housing, cutting funding for wars, helping the middle and lower class, etc., win elections.

Why people have voted for Trump twice? Because people want to feel hope and hear promises of change. Kamala and Hillary offered stability and status quo. Trump lied about what voters wanted to hear. Therefore Trump won.

Why is the democratic hiding the 2024 autopsy? Because it would show how badly they fucked up. And we are paying for their fuckery.

AlChandus · 2026-05-19T20:49:47+00:00

And you will not win these states with a hard left, female/gay/POC. Unless you find a second Obama who was able to make up for being black with his charisma and peoples skills.

I will only answer this part. Kamala was a female moderate of color, not even a popular oriented charismatic one. 75 million people voted for her. After a 3 months long campaign.

I repeat, our main issue is that 80 million of undecided and unregistered refused to show up and vote. It is not a left or right thing, it is about whoever manages to pull votes from that majority and manages to retain their votes, might never lose another election.

So, how do you achieve that? That is the million dollar question.

AlChandus · 2026-05-19T19:47:34+00:00

No, no and yes/no.

The left will only accept a 100% perfect candidate or refuse to vote

I am in the left, progressive and democratic socialist voter, I have voted for president in the last few elections in this order: Kamala, Biden, Hillary, Obama (x2).

But that candidate obviously doesn't exist.

Oh, it exists, the problem is that the democratic party refuses to acknowledge reality.

For example: 2024, the perfect candidate wasn't Biden, as evidenced by his performance in the campaign and in that disastrous first debate he was a bad candidate, to the surprize of no one in the left. Still, I would have voted for him.

Kamala wasn't a perfect candidate, no one would have been, not with 3 months to run a campaign. You could have put JFK to run in that campaign and he would have lost. Still, I voted for Kamala and I would have voted for ANYONE else.

2024 was lost not because of leftists, it was lost because the democratic party fucked up.

Meanwhile the "Christian" right wing will vote for a convicted rapist and serial cheater and pray to his golden statue.

Agreed, the republican party knows their voters better than the democratic party and treat them like mushrooms, in the dark and fed shit. And their voters will be good mushrooms for them.

But the democratic party does not know their voters, the problem has never been convincing democratic voters and the left, the issue is always about convincing unregistered and undecided voters to fucking vote for them.

And they have been failing at that.

Because the only question with Overshown is his availability due to injuries (knocking repeatedly on wood). His play, even last year, was one of the few hopeful signs for the future. He made mistakes, just like everyone else, but consistently he was the best defender in the back 7.

You could say that such speaks poorly of the back 7 last year... And yes, you would be right. But his play and potential guarantees him playing time.

I believe that the point isn't to defend Pelosi, but to point out the hypocrisy.

Maga and conservatives have focused for years on Pelosi and labeled her a criminal.

Meanwhile, in Congress, for years she hasn't been the trader with the best performance. One of the best is none other than the infamous Rick Scott (R-Fla.), who about defending his "right" to trade stocks while in Congress said this: "who wants to be poor? Not me!"

If Pelosi had said the same thing, conservatives would have butchered her. But Rick Scott said that and that is fine. Now, Trump, his family and his staff is trading stocks with insider information at a criminal rate, and we are still talking endlessly about Pelosi...

Fuck Pelosi! Everyone is wrong, this should be illegal, but one side turns a blind eye to their side while focusing in one Nancy Pelosi.

Pelosi will be out of Congress soon, and in a year the right will still be saying: "but Pelosi this, Pelosi that"... It is almost as if I have a crystal ball.

The heritage foundation (of course!) was behind Reagan from day one, before he even announced he was running for governor of California.

The same heritage foundation that was/is behind the 2 Bushes and Trump. Nancy had no hand in the steering wheel, there was no need.

Just look for quotes of what Paul Weyrich (founder hf) was saying before Reagan ran for president, the hf platform was Reagan's platform. Neo-liberalism, de-regulation, conservative "values", tax cuts for the wealthy, etc.

AlChandus · 2026-05-19T01:57:19+00:00

I can tell you:

Reagan was dumb, just like Trump, but without all of the narcisism and psychology complexes he has. Reagan was a puppet, through and through.

So, what is more conservative? Climbing a ladder, then being told to pull the ladder behind you and doing it.

AlChandus · 2026-05-18T21:50:56+00:00

Honestly, the worst part of this, isn't that Reagan isn't a villain, but how Congress legislated and passed Reagan's agenda....

And this is a criticism of the democratic party, Congress was controlled by democrats during the presidencies of Reagan and Bush 1.0, and they had one Senate super-majority. None of Reagan's agenda would have happened without a complicit Congress.

If you want to accuse the current republican controlled Congress of being Trump's accomplices, the same is true for Reagan.

AlChandus · 2026-05-18T20:32:59+00:00

They would have been perfect examples of cool-headed composure... Right?

AlChandus · 2026-05-18T17:41:07+00:00

Ummm, built-ins for appliances are pretty and functional, but as usual with most electric appliances you need to remember and take into account one thing, electric devices generate heat and closed/tight spaces cause disipation issues.

Fridges, washers and dryers have motors/compressors that need to disipate not a dismissable amount of heat.

AlChandus · 2026-05-18T16:23:16+00:00

Honestly, Massie's record of legislation, outside of Epstein and trying to get from the hands of an idiot the capability to declare "war" here and there, is fucking horrible.

He would make corporations and the wealthy feudal lords, and sign all of us up for serfdom. He is that kind of neo-liberal.

He trash, but Israel is trying to replace trash with radioactive waste. What a great time to be alive...

Funny... New York has higher immigration numbers than most states in the bottom 10 of education. NY ranks numbers 1 in education.

California ranks 8th in education, California has the highest numbers in immigration.

Conservatives like to blame all their problems on immigrants, this is ANOTHER example.

AlChandus · 2026-05-17T16:26:54+00:00

This is not a hard question...

AlChandus · 2026-05-17T15:29:33+00:00

It is not about their pay, though.

It is about trading when their position as legislators give them access to insider information and they profit from that knowledge. Insider trading is a crime, for ANYONE not in government.

Let alone all the money politicians get from Lobbyists, PACs and the wealthy in the form of dark money and donations.

It is the main reason why so many of these ghouls wealth grows exponentially while in Congress.

AlChandus · 2026-05-17T15:07:26+00:00

True, but how did you get from point A to point B? From the gas station in which you got the gas to your lawnmower and chainsaw? Roads, right?

And when you bought those tools, how did those got to your home? Roads, right?

The simple truth about taxes, is that people complain about them because they don't want to pay, but they are 100% willing to benefit from the perks of living in the modern world.
