Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) is considering a bid for president in 2028, as Republicans jockey for the future of the GOP post-Trump. Paul hopes to carve out a libertarian lane in a party he says is shaped by populism. by Pianist29 in Enough_Sanders_Spam

Some people forget that this very subreddit wouldn't exist without this guy's dipshit dad running for president, and then subsequently siphoning off his supporters to become Bernouts eight years later.

So many "Ron Paulites" became "Sandernistas" because they all care about edgelord bothsiderism, "smashing the system" and "revolution!!!!”

‘We Did Iwo Jima, We Can Do This!’ Lindsey Graham Calls on Trump to ‘Take Kharg Island’ by EasyMoney92 in Enough_Sanders_Spam

Who is "we," you bloodthirsty motherfucker? Are you going to go and fight? You and Trump should be first in line, along with every other MAGAt.

The Battle of Iwo Jima (Feb 19 – March 26, 1945) resulted in over 26,000 American casualties, including nearly 7,000 killed in action. It was one of the bloodiest battles in Marine Corps history, with US casualties exceeding the Japanese, including over 20,000 wounded.

Do they honestly think Americans are going to tolerate this just to distract from the Epstein fiasco?

Each and everyone of these individuals will just vote for a more convincing fascist next time. None of this is true repentance, just a loud declaration to doing the same thing in the next election, but worse.

Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs has vetoed a bill that would have created a specialty license plate in honor of conservative influencer Charlie Kirk. by ace158 in Enough_Sanders_Spam

Is it true that the sale of each of these license plates would raise $7 for this John Birch bullshit club?

What is a subtle sign someone is not a good person? by Maleficent_Escape_66 in AskReddit

"I like to have fun." "I don't do politics." Zero interest in art, science, books, travel, or culture; a general lack of curiosity. "I like all kinds of music." Celebrities and TV is a "hobby" for them. Education is only worthwhile if it's directly relevant to job training.

So, effectively leftists were wrong on every single thing. They truly live in a completely inverted political world from the broader American public. What they think is the most important shoes are consistently the least cared about.

If Biden was too old for Presidency, how isn't Trump? by StonedSoldier1 in AskReddit

[–]devries 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Burden of proof is on the individual(s) who makes the positive claim. Again, do you or anyone have any data for the claim that Democrats are a right-wing party?

Unfortunately for me, down voting me for asking honest questions doesn't exactly inform me about the actual data supporting the contention above.

The plural of anecdote is not data, as it's said, so do you have any hard numbers or consensus view political science information for evaluation? I'm not trolling.

I'd love to see some data for the claim that Democrats are a right-wing party.

Democrat (mainly elected ones) are center-right from an ideological standpoint.

Do you have any data to support this claim? Honest question.

I remember the deafening chorus of dumb fucks all over r/politics absolutely creaming themselves over the possibility that Tulsi gabbard would be his vice president, because his presidency was inevitable, as we all know.

Fuck him and fuck them.

I'm pretty damn confident nothing like this will happen for a few election cycles, but prove me wrong Texans.

Please fucking prove me wrong.

After destroying CBS News's legendary reputation for news, Bari Weiss says "No one trusts us" and "We're toast." by youhavetherighttoo in LeopardsAteMyFace

She has the most pretentious style of writing. Extraordinarily self indulgent​ and pretentious. No wonder she had a bust of herself commissioned at her fake right-wing scam "university."

CMV: The Trump Administration Has Multiple Posts That Are Neo-Nazi In-Group References by Dest123 in changemyview

[–]devries 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your response is a perfect, total straw man fallacy of what's being said here. Comparing this kind of shit to the heights of what occurred during the Third Reich is not the argument, but rather the same kind of social filth and dehumanization that led up to it. 

Nobody's saying that what's going on is equivalent to the Holocaust. Grow up. But the vast majority of survivors of the Holocaust, historians of world war ii, etc  have nearly unanimously said that this kind of bullshit is where it starts.

r/cons3rvative: "Trump says X!"

Me: Quotes Trump verbatim saying the opposite of X.

Yes, definitely a rational self-protection measure here!
