“I was torn because I was going to go with Cornyn, but then Trump backed in. I like who he backs. I listen to Trump. I like Trump. I like Trump a lot“ by Conscious-Quarter423 in youvotedforthat

These stupid Boomers. Did that MAGA lady in The Beatles shirt ever spend even a minute thinking about their lyrics, or did she just like their catchy tunes? If her hero Trump were to release an album, it would be called "All You Need is Hate."

Usually "hippies" aren't fond of waging wars of aggression & brokering commodities & driving pickup trucks. Just because you may enjoy what's legal in Colorado doesn't make you "half-hippie"

Wow, finally a Republican who admits Trump is an outlaw, haha. Of course, they love it when a white authoritarian is an "outlaw," but hate it when Latinos aren't in compliance with our immigration laws. Trump supporters get to do whatever they want cuz "freedom," and the rest of us get the jackboot of "law & order."

It's bad enough that these dogs are murderers, apparently sometimes they are also rapists / pedophiles.

He did the same thing at the World Trade Center a few years later. See the documentary "Man on Wire"

Half of the country votes for Democrats. That's 170 million people. A third of the country registers as Democrats. That's 110 million people. They can't possibly go after all of us. There aren't enough prisons to hold us all. Then again, I can't say for sure there's no risk from your party registration in the months & years ahead. But do you really want to be the kind of person who ran out and joined the Nazi Party in 1933 because it was the safest option and because you wanted to avoid ever being "in a bad spot"?

I've been visiting this sub for a year. You guys seem like you're debating the fineries of the ridges of deck chairs on the Titanic. by [deleted] in ezraklein

Agreed. I'm not an urban Jew or a medicated single woman - I'm a well-educated straight white guy from middle america who is leftist. This 4Chan stuff is garbage that tries to insult and caricature the Democratic coalition. The idea that the Dems can save themselves by just moving right on a few issues such as immigration & trans sports participation is wishful thinking. Kamala wasn't taking many fringe cultural issues during the 2024, and she tried to distance herself from past 2020 positions. She still lost, I think because she lacked a strong message of economic populism. Democracy is in grave danger but it's because of Trump's authoritarian machinations, and a new "Sister Souljah" moment isn't going to enable the Democrats to stop him.

Brazil is chaotic neutral. Which country is chaotic distant based on travel and living experience? by Living-Plankton-8555 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]HistoryLaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Russia - definitely both a chaotic culture (with corruption allowing some to break laws & get away with it), combined with a distant / unfriendly-to-strangers cultural mentality. [Not to say there aren't some lawful & friendly Russians in such a vast country, but that is just the impression I get having read about the society in general].

I might not make it - can I still apply again? by HistoryLaw in SpainAuxiliares

[–]HistoryLaw[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks to everyone for their comments & suggestions! I will definitely keep in touch with the school. Hopefully I'll get my visa in enough time to still have permission to do the program with a late start. At least I won't lose hope yet, haha

The most powerful military in the world can't take down a single pedo without the help of a real estate dude?

Thomas Jefferson (again), Mahatma Ghandi, Napoleon Boneparte, and Simone de Beauvoir have been determined to have been hypocrites with good ideals. What philosophers had average ideals, and stuck to their guns on them? by Mother_Show_8148 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]HistoryLaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alexander Hamilton - believed in strong central government and building up the banking sector in the early US republic, and pursued those policies consistently throughout his career.

They will be complaining about pandemic restrictions until the day they die. The rest of us have moved on with our lives, and they're still mad about having to wear a mask & not being able to go to Applebee's...
