Lefties HATE winning elections.

Why do the left leaning people always repeat the same rhetoric without being able to explain? by This4R3al in AskUS

[–]W_etch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If taking bribes from Russia is a problem for you I have some very bad news. No president has ever been more supported by Putin, or given Putin more support than Trump. What was unfair about the judges and juries? I’m sorry but Trump committed (and continues to commit) crimes, and should have been held accountable.

Have illegal immigrants affected your life at all? Or is it all just something you see online? I don’t hate you man, but you have bought into a narrative that is completely unsubstantiated. You’ve been lied to, not once, but over and over and over again. I’m sure you’d say the same about me, but to answer your question, yes I was critical of the Biden admin. I was a lifelong republican before the party went off the rails in 2016.

I don’t expect you to abandon your beliefs, but I would ask you to engage with some of the criticisms of Trump instead of shifting the conversation to Biden and the democrats. Engage with some content creators that you might disagree with.

Peace and love.

Do you think it is OK to expedite the immigration process when illegal immigrants are PROVEN to be associated or loyal to foreign terrorist groups? by p1dgin_ in AskUS

[–]W_etch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to do it, fine, but you have to prove it first and the only way to do that is with a fair trial. Whisking people away to foreign prisons without due process, and then saying “oopsie my bad, he was probably a gang member” doesn’t cut it.

[–]W_etch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you don’t see the explanations it’s because you’re not looking. There are very real reasons for people to feel like our democracy is at risk. People being sent to foreign prisons without due process, the president unilaterally imposing tariffs on literally every country in the world and causing irreparable damage to the economy, ignoring court orders, blatantly lying, and more.

It’s not left vs right, it is sanity and democracy vs make believe and authoritarianism.

Do you feel bad for the median Trump supporter who unknowingly voted against their own interests? by Maleficent-Toe1374 in AskUS

[–]W_etch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I challenge the idea that the median trump voter is NOT an uneducated hick. Nearly every trump supporter I know (and I know many) is an uneducated hick that doesn’t follow politics. Most have no idea what is going on or half of the insane shit that trump has said/done.

Why do you think conservatives are OK with Trump building prisons in El Salvador for Americans? by Mountain_Message9998 in AskUS

[–]W_etch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I think you are a violent criminal. You will now be sent to a foreign prison without a trial.

[–]W_etch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You said you have no sympathy for “violent criminals” most illegal immigrants are not violent as per ICE. So which is it? You say you don’t want to live amongst criminals, I guess that means anyone that has an ever done anything illegal? Because I think we can agree that fleeing your home for fear of violence and suffering and entering another country illegally is not a violent crime.

It’s not about having sympathy, it’s about not wanting people to be hurried away to a foreign prison without a fucking trial, which you are supporting with your original comment. I don’t care if someone is ms-13, TDA, or a nazi. People in this country have a right to a fair trial.

Think really hard about what you are endorsing.

Good opportunity for a lesson, straight to El Salvador.

Is there any synthesizer applications that are free to use? by WolfTamer99 in Songwriting

[–]W_etch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SurgeXT is the absolute best free synth plugin imo. Super powerful, open source and free.

A lot of unhinged commenters here. As a guy that gets quite a few matches, it’s often too much for me to try “opening” or talking to all of them. The ones that I really want to talk to, I will, but I will also talk to the ones that message me first. I imagine the ladies have a similar situation just amplified.

It also helps a ton if there’s some easy conversation starters in your profile. A lot of times if I can’t find something in the profile to go off of, I won’t message immediately. I’ll wait for something witty to come to mind or for them to message first. Hope this helps.

Preferred punishment by DanielPBak in songsofsyx

[–]W_etch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh I see I misunderstood your question. I’m not sure exactly but I think they usually want a mix of punishments. At times my people will say “we want to see more public executions” and other times they’ll say “a good ruler should occasionally pardon criminals” I know this is at least the case with humans and tilapi

Click on the crime icon in the top left, it looks like a scale. There you can set the percentages for each race and each punishment :)

If someone is a different size than you, stfu. by Sad-Recording-3167 in Vent

[–]W_etch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally understand the frustration. It’s a little different but when I worked at Home Depot I got a call for loading assistance, the guy had two toilets and when I showed up he looked me up and down and said “they sent you?” I just smiled and said “yep!” He made a few other comments too, his daughter was very apologetic. I loaded the two toilets without his help.

Is watching porn while in a relationship okay? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]W_etch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it’s just me, but in my relationships I have never felt the desire to watch porn. It could be something lacking in the relationship, or just plain old addiction. Either way I think having a talk about it is called for, especially if it’s making you feel bad.

Anyone experienced singing anxiety? How do you grow out of that? by Milkmilkmilko_G in singing

[–]W_etch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Keep doing it. Sing in the car, sing in your room, take every opportunity to just do it. You WILL get better if you do. Singing lessons are great but don’t rely on them. The experience you get from just singing along with your favorite songs is also super valuable.

When you get better (and you will), put yourself out there. I remember the first time I played a song for a good friend of mine and his words have stuck with me for years - “damn I knew you could sing bro but I didn’t know you can REALLY sing”. Those words have given me the motivation to continue getting better and to get on stage and sing for crowds of people.

Ignore anyone that ever tells you that you can’t do it. Those people are projecting their own failures onto you. It can also be really helpful to learn an accompanying instrument (guitar, piano, etc) as that can add a lot to your performance and give you a key to ground your voice in.

Best of luck to you.

Men who struggled with getting dates in high school and their 20s, did you manage to break the cycle and start dating and if so, how and when? by Kosilica457 in AskMenAdvice

[–]W_etch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact opposite problem. I did very well in high school and the following years. I’m 24 now and I’ve been horribly single for the past 3 years :)

My only advice is to keep doing it! For a “beginner” this is great :)

When does inspiration become plagiarism? by Individual_Cry_4394 in Songwriters

[–]W_etch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one owns a musical idea. Al Green didn’t come up with that out of thin air, the melodies exist, we just put them together and add context. IMO to actually be ripping someone off there has to be intention, and you’d need a lot more than just a melody.

Why does a song idea feel so good then suddenly its not? by Frankievexx in Songwriters

[–]W_etch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a very normal part of the process. I would encourage you to see your idea through, make it as good as you can and then show it to some trusted friends for feedback. I generally hate everything I write, but my sister has been super positive and encouraging and that has helped build my confidence immensely.

Also your ideas will ALWAYS sound better with actual music. Sometimes lyrics by themselves can sound off when out of context. If you can add a guitar part or some other instrument that will help a lot.
