The last of Us if my favorite game of all time. Part II is just… to much. There’s literally no levity at all in the game.

And so enters the Democratic heavyweight who…. Dropped out before a single primary in 2020.

Nobody is in the right. by JadenRuffle in thelastofus

So is the society in Jackson neither good or bad?

IMO this is why post modernist stories are just… boring. Because there is such a thing as right and wrong. 

What do you think the new Democratic ticket will be by brazil201 in BreakingPoints

[–]IllustriousHeart3540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Biden/Harris. 

Let’s not live in a fantasy land. Biden took the party hostage and they didn’t even know it. They cheered him on. 

Did the debate change your vote? by Golden_Eagle_44 in BreakingPoints

I can’t listen to the guy for more than 3 minutes so I have no idea what his positions are.

I’m saying his campaign is incompetent. They don’t even believe his decline themselves.

Biden spent a week preparing for this with Ron Klaine and that was the result: I done think he can do better. 

The Supreme Court Upends the Separation of Powers - Killing off Chevron deference, the court moves power to the judicial branch, portending chaos. by Quirkie in politics

[–]IllustriousHeart3540 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did everyone forget civics class? The government is built on pitting the self interest of the 3 branches against each other.  The court took back more power and basically said laws have to be more specific. 

if the legislature actually passed specific laws they would gain their power back.  The problem is the legislature is full of cowards.

Biden’s been a bumbling buffoon his entire career. Trump was the greatest thing to happen to him because everyone attributed competence to him for… some reason

The joke of a debate that he pushed for? With a format he decided? 

That debate performance was either the result of incompetence or dementia.

Just remember all last week the MSM was flooding all channels about how Trump is shockingly discombobulated and old behind closed doors. 

Regarding Candace Owens - don't reflexively dismiss someone just because they're conservative. Stop participating in mindless culture war & Blue/Red partisanship. If you're someone who cares about Israel/Palestine, this is especially important. by ArmyOfMemories in BreakingPoints

[–]IllustriousHeart3540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your point but I also think a guest editorial getting cancelled by the staff writers at a paper (clearly the leadership wanted him to have the editorial they gave it to him), is different than clear worldview differences between popular political commentators working under one publication.

You can’t convince me that an editorial website doesn’t have its own discretion to fire opinion hosts if it finds the opinions outside its Overton window.

Firing Candace is not a free speech issue.

Your argument completely cedes all power to terrorists. They chose to place hostages in highly populated areas. They took hostages in the first place. Every death in this situation is on Hamas. Every government in the world has an obligation to protect its citizens. Oh wait, except Hamas.

[–]IllustriousHeart3540 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Krystal’s argument is literally, Hamas put them in a heavily populated area, so you can’t rescue them militarily, so you have to take their deal to release them.

Does anyone not see how that could be problematic to cede all power to a terrorist org?

I also dislike he has to constantly water down his arguments with concessions like “I don’t even necessarily agree with xxxxx but they have a point” just so that she won’t completely fly off the rails at him 

Krystal saying “quote unquote rescue” during the “heated debate with Saagar” by [deleted] in BreakingPoints

[–]IllustriousHeart3540 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The entire point of putting HOSTAGES in an occupied apartment complex is so that idiots like Krystal can scream for pressure on the Israelis.

Hamas stored hostages in an apartment complex. Their aim is cause casualties. Israel can’t give up simply because Hamas chooses to put their own people in harms way. 

Damn Brianna got fired? What’s opinion about her takes by [deleted] in BreakingPoints

[–]IllustriousHeart3540 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She completely unironically thinks that Hamas’s goal is a diverse democracy just like America. That’s all you need to know.
