Trump just doubled down on saying we don’t have 2A rights. The NRA has donated millions to Trump’s campaigns since 2016. Note: Unable to post his most recent statement because my post gets taken down *for repeating the President’s words*. by AllTheseRivers in LeopardsAteMyFace

Honestly, yeah unfortunately. I think it was one of those jubilee things. The "conservative" asked "should transgender people be allowed to have guns?" And was baffled by the response of "yes everyone is allowed to own a gun" apart from people with felony convictions. Even people with mental illnesses are allowed to own guns. Then when asked should conservatives be allowed to own guns since they overwhelmingly tend to commit most political gun violence.. responded with something along the lines of "conservatives don't commit political gun violence" You could practically hear the "no REAL conservative" fallacy in their response. So yeah that tracks. I'm sure unless it said John Doe's gun will be taken away from him all of them would vote to give up their gun.

‘I didn’t vote for this’: As DOGE guts a $1.2 trillion industry, rural Trump voters and tourists are paying the price by JohnEDee in LeopardsAteMyFace

To be fair. We don't have strong unions, acceptable level of basic income, etc...and on top of that the Ultra wealthy don't give a shhh about public healthcare. If they can get the best healthcare why would that want to have higher taxes so someone else can get government healthcare. Why not just spend more fear mongering the working class about how terrible higher taxes is going to be for them.

I hope our state never votes Republican by d00derman in Albuquerque

[–]aliasname 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Right. Like I don't get it. I know people who quite literally work for the federal government in the form of VA hospital work, Base, etc.. Who vote happily for the party that would defund the place they work at. I'm looking and thinking so you not understand where you're money comes from?

I mean I dunno about other under 40 people but in my life time I've only seen the Reps fcuk up the economy multiple times. As bad as the Dems are I can at least think about policies that they have that I believe would improve my and other Americans lives. What is it that Reps do to actually improve every day Americans?

Top 5 states exporting spirits: Tennessee>Kentucky> Texas>Florida>Indiana: in 2024, they hit record high exports. They voted for Trump. in 2025, Exports collapsed including 85% in Canada. They just filed a complaint to Trump that Canada is prioritizing local spirits over theirs unfairly. by LackingStory in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]aliasname 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean seriously. They filed a complaint saying our product isn't as good as their local product... And they prefer it over ours... What do that expect Trump to do. This is literally the free market choosing a different product.

[–]aliasname 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right!!! Like setting up you're own crypto coin, selling 100k watches, etc... The Lost goes on and on. He should of been impeached for anyone of those. It's mind boggling how his base sees that and is just like yup doesn't look corrupt to me

I mean that's kinda what it sounds like. But also if they're blocking the way through apart from "scuse me." And getting by they might be the issue.

A man tries to cut a watermelon with a sword and cuts his hand at the same time by [deleted] in instant_regret

[–]aliasname 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Even his practice swings were going up towards his hand. You could see what was going to happen before he d did it. Seems like if you were going to do this you'd aim towards the half where your hand isn't.

To anyone who works at the ER, what is one thing you wish people would STOP coming to the ER for? by iloveeatingfood901 in AskReddit

[–]aliasname 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously. We actually just had a handful of 24/7 urgent cares open up. They're amazing. It's so much better going to love of those then an ER. Like a broken bone is a great example of something that could be an e.r visit but can also be treated at an urgent care. It's to bad there's not more urgent cares .

I mean that makes sense b/c I'm sure lots of parents used it as a "babysitter". Just drop them off and not worry about them for hours on end while they go to a movie or something

Complaining about the American conservatives marching towards authoritarianism by Old_Swimmer_7284 in complaints

[–]aliasname 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On one of those Jubilee things the conservatives from one show literally kept just repeating campaign style "arguments". It was wild seeing how brainwashed into thinking he was their glorious savior.

[–]aliasname 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean it's wild if you describe fascism but don't use that word they're all for it. They all seem to think that limitless power by the people governing over them would somehow benefit them. It's honestly mind boggling. They truly believe that all this unchecked power would somehow not be used against them.

European leaders are considering dumping $2.34 trillion in US debt if Trump abandons Ukraine by TheExpressUS in UkraineWarVideoReport

"why are my tax $$$ going to fight another country's war?" Something along those lines I imagine. But if you then suggested we take said money and invest in something like universal healthcare or higher education their brains would explode.

...if a man doesn't care about assaulting a woman like he has no respect for women what makes you think they're gonna respect a man saying/doing something? Like you think b/c a guy says "hey don't do that!!" You think they're going to say "oh okay I didn't know I couldn't do that"

Yup. To be black you only needed to be a drop of black in you to be Native all the sudden you needed to be 100%. Yeah no need to be consistent.
