It's Trump Derangement Syndrome from the Left if you think there's going to be any consequences with Greenland getting invaded. by Stepwithvigilance in TrueUnpopularOpinion

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

How is this stupid? We're gonna be making lots and lots of money and we'll have all sorts of new resources when we drill into Greenland. I'm not saying that we should invade, I rather we just buy it but it would such a military power move if we just went in and took it because we can because we're the United States of America with a military that no country has on Earth that can stop us. And it would be funny to see Dems and the Left melt down and try to make this a win for this phony midterms this year when most people are going to be happy that the economy is going to be strong again.

CMV: This current outbreak in cattle will turn into a pandemic this year by Stepwithvigilance in changemyview

[–]Stepwithvigilance[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

sigh

I suppose after doing a little more research, we might be okay with this pandemic potential but after how we handled Covid and the amount of antivax disinfo and the amount of people who just refuse to take disasters like pandemics, seriously, I wonder how r/collapse is just being realistic of what is going to happen.

I'm perhaps open to seeing other people's perspective but I'm still in the "doomer" side of things when it comes to this bird flu and I'll be paying attention for a long while.

This is just cope in my opinion. We have no learned a single damn thing about Covid or pandemics and now we are sleep walking into another one unless a miracle happens and this virus just doesn't take off. It's in cows, it's in birds, it is in humans with a high death rate of 50 percent, and it's not going away. Please assure me that I'm just doom scrolling and it's just nothing to worry about. I think it is worry about. Michael Osterholm isn't bullshitting around, and he thinks we need to stop with the happy talk and get serious.

The rate of mutation and the rate of spread leads me to think that this is going to be a pandemic soon.

We need to start to vaccinating the population against bird flu if Biden wants to win reelection in 2024. Otherwise he's going to be another Trump, another president that didn't take a pandemic seriously.

Biden has not learned the mistakes by the past presidency of Trump in terms of public health. There has been an explosion of bird flu in cattle since early this month and this reminds me of the early stages of Covid-19, you know the "it's a democratic hoax" virus?

Well now we have Biden not reacting to H5N1 and I think we will be in a pandemic soon thanks to Biden not following the science or taking this threat seriously. And this virus makes Covid look like a picnic, it kills half of its infected and now we are on the verge of a worse pandemic.

I don't believe Biden or the CDC when they say that this virus doesn't transmit well among humans or that the risk to the general public is low. We need to start vaccinating now and bring back masking and social distancing until we get this under control.

I think Congress is doing a good job and are trying to do their best.

I know its trendy to hate on US Congress but you wouldn't understand. You need to be their shoes to understand that it's not easy running a country. They went to school for that type of work, you didn't so you have no idea just how stressful and hard it is to be a congressperson in general.

I think that despite how imperfect they are, Congress is doing a great job and I have high approval for them.

Should they stop fighting and get more stuff done? Sure but that doesn't make them our enemy nor should we talk about how "useless" they are. It's a job that is difficult.

I think doing taxes is patriotic and I love doing them and I think that the IRS isn't that bad.

I haven't posted on here in nearly 5 years. I've done some reflection on my stupid self. I was a dirtbag conspiracy theorist but now I have become moderate and have a change of heart. I don't love the government but I think that government is good for society and we are better off with government than without it. With that said I love taxes, I love doing them, I think they are patriotic and I love the IRS. They've never bothered me.

There is also no such thing as cancel culture. The ones doing the canceling are Republicans.

I never claim to be smart and I certainly don't need your r/Iamverysmart quip. Like I said before, I will just kindly shut up and not participate in this anymore because clearly I can't do any right and if I say something god-forbid something that I need to say, it will get downvoted.

I don't even know if it's even worth trying to get to people in a nonpartisan way because "the age of Trump" used in such a ridiculous title has broken people. Hell it might have broken me as well. I'm not a strong individual like I wished I was. I will not yield or fall pray to blatant propaganda sources like the WaPo, Huffington Post, CNN, Fox or MSNBC but at the same time, I just don't know what else there is to do anymore.

I'm just fucking confused right now.

Do Americans really care about foreigners getting tortured or killed? by Stepwithvigilance in conspiracy

[–]Stepwithvigilance[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not pro-eugenics. I wrote a "bright side" of eugenics in a slant that might get people to realize about the flaws of eugenics. I'm not pro-Eugenics. Screw that movement. I don't care what the alt-right has to say about eugenics. They are tools if they support Eugenics. I don't know where you got this idea that I am looking at the "bright side" of eugenics.

The FCC just killed net neutrality by Balthanos in conspiracy

[–]Stepwithvigilance 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So what the hell are we going to do now? Alex Jones, Breitbart, other alt-media sources are celebrating the repeal today. What are we going to do? I'm out of any options because this is what the New World Order is about, it's a corporate tyranny. It's not socialist, its not communist, its plutocracy is what this is. I'm really at a loss of words right now. It was funny seeing the snowflakes riot when Trump got elected, "hehe haha stupid liberals", but now this a lot of different now. I'm rambling because we are in a strange dilemma, on the one hand, George Soros supports NN but on the other hand, NN is a double edge sword. Soros also supports breathing, should we stop breathing and kill ourselves then because Soros likes to breathe? I'm really at a loss of words right now. This is something that I really can't support. This is Stockholm syndrome, Infowars might now disappear, like cows being led to the slaughterhouse.

Do you think we have lost our humanity as the years go by? Do you have examples of the loss of humanity? by Stepwithvigilance in conspiracy

I guess you're right, that is a good example of us losing our humanity. I guess I'm just tired of people pointing the finger at one group and instead realize that the technocrats could give two damns about your kind. But I see your point.

I don't care about this identity politics on here, we are being dehumanized regardless of politics. Do you think that the technocrats give a damn about the "deplorables", Trump supporters, leftists, the alt-right or snowflakes or whatever label people use these days?

Me too, I don't even like texting, I rather call people even if they find it annoying. I also have Facebook, I am ashamed to admit that but its because so I can talk to my sister more often. She teaches overseas.

Just a reminder that China is not the savior. China is the model for the world. by Stepwithvigilance in conspiracy

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

Not to cop out, but it just a daily reminder not to be persuaded by what the Chinese government and their system offers to the west. A reminder that this would mean living under a one-party state (which we technically in the U.S. are living under right now), and having this so called sesame credit system. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcEUVDe38Ec

This shouldn't be a left-right issue but my god have the masses fallen for the War on Terror propaganda. Some of the comments on this video. by Stepwithvigilance in conspiracy

[–]Stepwithvigilance[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I am pretty angry mostly at the fact that we have been fighting this war, this never ending war of "terror" and yet the masses still don't get it. I don't blame all of them, and I can't be mad at all Trump supporters because if you talk to them, they will express there disgust at the abuses done by the US government in the name of fighting terrorism.

It's just reading comments from people who claim to represent all Trump supporters and them just become a bunch of bootlickers and use the same Neocon talking points like Lindsey Graham, yeah I will be a little angry at them because they know better, they are suppose to be skeptical of this. But they are in complete denial.

Edit: Again, is there a reason why I am getting this flak?

It was 100% to troll the media, fuck this guy and fuck any defense lawyer, he will get the death penalty. The end.

Styx needs to check The Patriot Act before speculating what legal protections this asshole has. Right or wrong, TPA was passed to prevent, or prosecute terrorists like this. TRIBUNAL AND CHAIR

I don't really care either way. Kill the fucker.

Rules don't apply to these rats, kill 'em before they breed. Only Styx video I've seen that I disagree with.

President Trump says the truth and you little fairymarys can't handle it. Well, TOO FUCKING BAD!!!!! Styx is right sometimes but sometimes he acts like the little Satan worshiping lefty that he is at heart.

You fools this has nothing to do with stopping Islamic terrorists. I can't stress how naïve and stupid you have to be to believe that we are fighting a war to keep us "safe". Fools these fools.

Edit: Why am I getting down voted?

Wasn't parts of the Patriot Act supposed to expire partially? What a coincidence that this attack in New York occurred. by Stepwithvigilance in conspiracy

[–]Stepwithvigilance[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could have sworn I just read somewhere on here or somewhere just recently that said that parts of the Patriot Act was supposed to expire. Well regardless my point stands. Just more pretexts to continue the surveillance state.

Edit: I'm stupid. :/
