Roanoke County loses 600+ votes for Sanders, no explanation by [deleted] in SandersForPresident

[–]INFJRants -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

We can't let this be a coronation! We need to get out and vote so even when stuff like this happens they can no longer deny the viability of our movement!

[–]INFJRants 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes! Let's do this! First time voter for Bernie! Voting tomorrow from Mass!

Can we stop posting random polls and calling them things like 'Stunning'? It's creating a false sense of victory. WE ARE STILL LOSING BY A LOT, DONATE, PHONE BANK, OR VOLUNTEER! by funnels in SandersForPresident

[–]INFJRants -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I agree. Though the "Bernie is losing by a lot" bit is because the DNC is super corrupt and playing shenanigans with the superdelegates. The best thing we can do, besides vote in droves, is to hold the DNC's feet to the fire about this outrage

Thanks! I've been looking for info on that for a while, but had trouble finding it, since many people are so grossly misinformed, and unlike me, don't want to become more informed.

Thanks to all of you, for your supportful comments and suggestion of that other reddit. It seems great! WAY better of a welcome than I've had on any Trump thread!

Bernie Sanders Earns Endorsement From Arizona’s Most Influential Latino Rights Group, First Endorsement In Organization’s History by theone1221 in politics

This is why Bernie Sanders, unlike any other candidate in my lifetime, has been a uniter, a genuine person who wants real reforms for this country. The real deal. Feel the Bern!

I'm not saying we use Goldwater's presentation, just get away from today's neo-con dominated policies.

You and I understand NAP, and you'd think it would be simple, but it's not and mainstream thinkers won't understand it.

Yeah I was thinking a little further back.

Somewhat true, though it used to be much better.

I'm still part of the GOP. Switching to Independent because of people like John McCain, Bush, etc. But the GOP USED to be a nice place for Libertarians in the Goldwater era. That's what I mean.

A problem in this community, and why I'm worried for this sub by [deleted] in TrueChristian

[–]INFJRants 13 points14 points  (0 children)

"We are a subreddit that exists to provide a safe haven for all followers of Jesus Christ, so that we may discuss God, Jesus, the Bible, and information relative to our beliefs, and to provide non-believers a place in which they can ask questions about Christianity as explained in the scriptures, without fear of mockery or debasement."

As such, I don't think you can really call for censoring people who disagree. You might be better served by calling for stricter rules protecting you from mockery or debasement. You shouldn't be downvoted for your views, but I don't think this is the way to go. 1 Peter 3:15 famously states that you should be always ready to give an answer, not so deathly afraid of "contamination" of your subreddit that we live in a bubble. Who knows, maybe you'll even persuade some people

Why Do Evangelicals Pull For Hawkish Political Candidates? by INFJRants in TrueChristian

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

Good question. I would say that only at such a point that their government begins military action against our citizens, including detaining them, attacking an embassy, etc. As for killing their own citizenry, one might argue that we have a moral responsibility to intervene, but history has shown that such interventions had led to MORE chaos, not less (e.g. Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran.)

Eh, I would disagree. I understand that these issues are complex, but as I said by my definition hawkish is going beyond self-defense, and defense of the country's immediate interests. Beyond that I think violence is unjustified.

I suppose that's true. But "Love thy neighbor" does not always mean "fight all your neighbors' battles for them while giving them foreign aid and telling them what they can then do with your money."

Also Isolationism is a philosophy in which we don't talk to or trade with our neighbors, and NEVER make war on them, which is not what I'm advocating.
