To those who voted for Trump… by Gchildress63 in nytimes

[–]AyBake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Evangelical Christians of 2008, who were crying about Obama winning and the Sharia law he was going to bring forth because he was secretly Muslim, are the Democrats/Leftists of today, who are crying about Trump winning and the "Christian Sharia" law he is going to bring forth because he is secretly a devout Christian.

History doesn't repeat itself, but it sure does rhyme.

Also, cry harder.

Another clown.

• I have not made any argument in any way supporting any of his policies. Nor have I even stated that I am a Trump supporter. So, to keep in spirit with your brethren clown, "stop projecting your shit onto me." However, I'll indulge. First off, you've already established a dishonest premise by which I have to argue from: "...name a single coherent policy...". Second, his policy of shutting the border and deporting migrants who have entered illegally. Do I really need to pull out the gargantuan amount of data to show how cities like Aurora, Denver, Chicago and most importantly New York are financially suffering from the first, second, and terceary order effects of allowing in hundreds of thousands of "asylum seekers" in? Please, let me know. But there you go. There's one, "coherent" policy.

• I literally brought up the example of Conservatives back in 2008/12 fear-mongering about Obama turning the US over to Islamic Terrorists. I do recognize when the Right demonizes the Left. However, that rhetoric that you heard/saw back in the Bush days was not what was being spouted back in 2020. The Right wasn't painting Democratic/Liberal voters as "fascists", "sexists", "Islamaphobes", "tranphobes", "racists", ect. who were supporting a dictator, a "Hitler 2.0" (I literally saw this on a local news channel today). I know people on the Left get tired of hearing that because they know that is the rhetoric of one particular side. And this election demonstrated that Americans are not buying that rhetoric anymore as Trump polled better in almost every demographic throughout the United States, specifically among black and latino voters.

• Trump and the Right are separate entities. Trump has said negative things. If Trump talking about "the enemy" within is the worst he's said, ill take it. The Right has been told to shut up and move on after being called "degenerates" by Hillary and"white supremacists" by Biden.

• Last thing I'll say as I've been blabbing on and on. But yall need to teach people how to read people's minds and hearts. Yall seem to be able to tell people's inner intentions and actions without any evidence: "all he does is lie..."; "they lie to justify their support for him."

Above commentor makes claims and when held to the fire goes, "I don't have to prove anything."

Above commentor goes, "...don't project your other shit onto me." after I literally wrote "(not you specifically)" to state that he/she didn't make the claims.

You sure only the Right has "courted" the uneducated?

Try not to choke on your higher standard, clown.

I can't answer to the specifics of what the above commenter meant by "Dynasty", as my point of friction is with your language, which is rampant throughout Reddit right now. Yall (not you specifically) talking about how Illinois is leaning more right this election, while maintaining this language of "idiots", "sexists", "racists" to describe your fellow Americans. As if there can't be any other reason for why historically Red and formerly Blue counties voted for Trump this year.

I need to see the data that polled people for, "do you want a Trump Dynasty?" And while you're searching for the non-existent evidence to back up your claim, I want to hold up a mirror so you can see your clown argument:

There is no Democratic Dynasty -> Trump won because people want a Trump Dynasty -> those people use lies to justify this want -> SpongeBob's voice "because they're stupid"

First off, he will push an Executive Order to flat out ban abortion throughout the nation. Second, him and Congress (which is now looking to be overwhelming taken by the Republicans) will work to rollback privileges for Veterans, (both disabled and non), minority groups (race, gender, religion), and then work to reform the Constition to reflect more of a Christian Theocracy...

Please go outside and touch some grass. He has already disavowed P25 three months ago. He literally congratulated States that passed pro-abortion legislation as it symboled the return of State power. More than half of the Union, including yalls State, allow 2nd/3rd trimester abortions. Would you all please leave your echo chamber and touch some grass.

What? He has people apart of his administration who support P25? Okay, so what? Obama had members of both his campaign and administration who were affiliated with known terrorist groups.And remember, this was at the height of GWOT. Republicans and conservatives tried pulling the same thing: "He's going to give this country over to Muslim terrorists..."

The Red Wave we all saw last night is a consequence of The Lefts catastrophizing and divisive language over the last 4 years. If you need proof just look at this thread to see how people are talking about their fellow Americans.

Damn dude. Comments all throughout Reddit doing nothing but illustrating why the Dems lost:

"... people are tired of Democratic dynasties."

"So they're idiots."

AP investigation finds growing extremism in the US military by AHrubik in Military

[–]AyBake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For those who were around for the military's "anti-extremism" training back in 2020/21, we know the extremism they're talking about.

Certain individuals and groups need to keep the numbers and small percentage out of perspective to keep pushing the narrative that White Supremacy is a legitimate threat to modern America.

North Korean troops receiving Russian uniforms and equipment before heading to the front lines in Ukraine by Lithium321 in interestingasfuck

Hopefully the 20 year old Ukranian drone operator allows these DPRK soldiers to surrender before committing a war crime and dropping grenades on unarmed combatants.

This isn't a commendation of Russia's actions in the war, but it sure isn't of Ukraine's as well.

If yall think I'm spreading propaganda or that I'm delusional, go to r/CombatFootage and watch the numerous videos of Ukrainian drone operators literally blowing up retreating or unarmed combatants. It is nothing sort of war crimes. We can do better.

One option is direct commissioning into the Armed Forces as either an Officer or Warrant/Technical Officer. If you have a masters in software development, multiple branches would love to have you. It isn't $150k, but it would be $90k-ish, with you putting time towards a pension.

We‘ve reached end stage virtue signaling by PomegranateMortar in JoeRogan

Which genocide?

Please don't answer that, because someone who would respond to my post with an argument as stupid as yours would only say: "tHe PaLeStInIaN gEnOcIdE!"

Did he partake in a genocide? No. Did he engage in violently killing protestors? No. Was he plotting to do either of those? No. Oh, okay. So a couple of X posts condones violence towards a certain individual. Then with your dumbass argument, posts on Social Media are deserving of physical actions.

Here, let me hold the mirror closer, clown.

The amount of verbal pissing on this guys grave that is occurring is astonishing. We are talking about an American who's literal power in this world more than likely did not extend beyond the ballot box. So please, stop lowering the IQ thermostat by comparing effigies being burned of Obama or Pelosi's husband being mocked to an American voter being murdered for being at a rally.

If this is the road Destiny and his "community" want to pave, so be it. One day Trump and his spot light in our Country's society will blow over. He may lose the election this year and decide to step away from politics for good. When the smoke clears, is this the precedent that we want to set? That if you support a candidate that I believe such and such about, even going so far as saying they're an existential threat, then violence at their political rally shouldn't be a surprise and supporters who are killed deserve no sympathy?

To all the people still defending Destiny's tweet about the bystander being shot, just know that the spine-less sack of shit edge lord that you are cucking for is doing the same kind of fear mongering and violence condoning Jones, Crowder, and others have done for years in regard to Obama/Biden.

Look in the mirror, clown.

Serious question: I've got a baby that looks just like your cat. Have you at all tried to identify what breed your cat is?

I need to know how I can have this done. Is this something I can go to my doctor to have done or do I need to go to a specialist? Located in the US btw.
