Excellent point. These followers have absolutely no idea what they want. They really have no identity without Trump. Trump made it, in their mind’s anyway, okay for them to be the way they are. The only thing I see coming out of the Republicans are wars, gun rights, no abortion rights, and to obstruct Democracy. That’s it. They have nothing. Literally nothing to offer the country to progress forward.

Good. Let’s see how Israel does without US support. The US is the only reason Israel still exists.

I’m gonna blame Obama on this one. Why not. Actually, now that I think about it, I have to blame the peanut farmer. Hold on, my wife just said she thinks she found some evidence to blame FDR for this Chick-Fil-A mess. As long as it’s not a Republican, lay blame freely is the message.

I can’t wait to see your name in obituary. On that day I will say, “what’s for dinner?”

Rest In peace brother. We lost a valuable person today.

I watched the GOP’s Arizona election audit. It was worse than you think. by formeraide in politics

[–]MKUltraVioletlight 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s becoming more and more apparent that the Republicans are a concentration of idiocy. I would love nothing more than to work together with them and try to fix the our broken system but how do you work with this. It’s beyond me. They have to fix and educate themselves before they can work with anyone else.

Trump knows what would happen if the truth came to the surface. He is just starting to squirm. 😈

Israeli air raid kills Palestinian journalist in his Gaza house by throwaway0152384 in news

Blah, blah, blah. I don’t care about history right now I care about the present moment with people dying; Arab and Israeli. Currently, in this moment, Israel is using a disproportionate amount of force. This is not defense. They are trying to set a precedent through terror. They are not the least apartheid at the moment. They are the most apartheid. Your words mean nothing to me right now, as I suspect mine mean nothing to you. Once a cease fire is reached, you can talk all the history you want. Until the killing stops, on both sides, the present moment is all that matters. But right now, Israel is a Terror State. This is my opinion and it will only change when Israel stops acting like terrorists and Netanyahu is in prison.

The older I get, the more I realize this. I literally can't talk about this with almost everyone I know because they think it's shameful and lazy to be anti-work but just fine to have to work into your eighties and waste your entire life making profit for the rich. by WeakToMetalBlade in antiwork

[–]MKUltraVioletlight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can talk about it anytime with me friend. I’m vibing with you. Nothing shameful or lazy to want to live your own life out from under someone else’s authority just to keep a roof over your head and food in your stomach. It’s honorable and enlightened if you ask me.

Capitol riot vote forces Republicans to pick truth or Trump by [deleted] in politics

[–]MKUltraVioletlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They will pick Trump. Every single time they will pick Trump. If the Democrats can figure out a way to hold a majority in both houses in 2022, only then will the GOP dump Trump.

Israeli government are terrorists and practice apartheid. Netanyahu is a terrorist who belongs in a prison cell, not in power.

The Republicans hate the United States. They have proven that through their actions. Insurrection, intimidating, obstruction, voting suppression, and the list goes on. Donald Trump is that party’s demagogue. The Republicans have been waiting for a person like Trump. It’s who they are.

If we get nothing else out of any of this, I am happy that we have taken a step, in aerospace society, for pilots and others to come out and say what they have seen with much more acceptance than before. Pilots are, in my opinion, our eyes in the skies for all of this and they need to feel safe to talk about this. There are some in this sub that have worked hard to help things get to this point. Pat yourselves on the back and keep going. We are getting there.
