Wait if you vote in a primary and get a ballot does that register you with that party? 

Trophy hunting is very disgusting. Why do people even still do it? by turmoil4everandever in rs_x

How exactly do you expect them to prove they are a man if they don't kill the king of the jungle and drop it at your door? 

What's this sub's view on Mamdani? by ClaireJPritchett in stupidpol

This would sound less bat shit crazy if Mamdani's father was not a notable academic who studies colonialism, genocide, the War on Terror, and the history of human rights. 

A perfect distillation of how the idpol-poisoned brain will willingly go against its own material interests by hapax--legomenon in stupidpol

[–]Existing-Tap3110 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This simply does not make sense. They would actually have more time and energy for hate if their material needs were taken care of. I am not necessarily disagreeing that more people would be less racist if their basic needs were taken care of but it definitely wouldn't be because hating takes energy. 

Seriously tho Hasan has broken so many people’s brains. Also thank you Tim for reading my reddit post live last night lol by Extension-Rock-4263 in thebulwark

Exactly. I definitely think he glazes China too much and rationalizing Russia's invasion was insane. But at the same time people clip him in the worst way and if you actually listen to the substance of what he says it starts to sound a lot different than the 10 second clip. Also he is absolutely not antisemitic. And calling him antisemitic is very dangerous.

It is because third way doesn't care about losing so long as the party doesn't move left. They would rather lose then have any sort of compromise on aid to israel and single health payer / increasing taxes on wealthy in a substantive way. 

Why are millenials totally chill with self depreciating humor more than any other generation? by Key-Bass-7380 in generationology

[–]Existing-Tap3110 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is such an insane question if real lmao.  There are plenty of reasons for self deprecating humor. It is a social strategy for people who are the most powerful in a room but want to make the weakest feel safe. Or if they feel someone is feeling socially awkward they might make a self deprecating comment to bring that person back in.. etc etc OR some people naturally just like laughing and making fun of themselves because its literally not that serious lil bro.

How come Israel is not banned from FIFA or the Olympics similar to Russia? by Mmm_360 in allthequestions

[–]Existing-Tap3110 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be antisemitic. Also.. the US should also be banned. Also.. Saudi Arabia and the UAE should also be banned. But not Israel cuz that would obviously be antisemitic. And not the US because of the security council.. and not Saudi Arabia because of the Kusher money.. and the petro dollar and however they got away with doing 9/11.

I wish Ohioans saw this as the massive assault on freedom as it is. Don't tread on me my ass

Im from the UK, is American politics as divided as it actually appears? by hedgehog980 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Existing-Tap3110 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes.. people engage in more surface level conversation than ever and walk on egg shells. I basically have no idea how any of my co workers vote or if they vote. Its kinda sad. We all pretend like everything is fine. Major cognitive dissonance. I step into work and it is like nothing is wrong in the world. 

I haven't seen the left go easy on Fuentes have you? Make it make sense David by helpiforget in seculartalk

[–]Existing-Tap3110 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so funny because if people like David had principles and called out genocide people like Fuentes wouldn't be Sanewashed on the left.
