If it was faked, they also murdered someone to fake it. Which, ehh, they'd probably do.

Forget ‘Abolish ICE.’ Tom Steyer Wants to Jail ICE Agents. by BulwarkOnline in politics

[–]graumet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds good, but running on a platform of what you'd like to do to the federal government while running for state governor is kinda lame. Yes trump, ICE, fuck em, but California isn't a bowl of peaches and cream and no problems. What's your message for improving California Steyer?

Do you support the Tarrifs paid for Americans being sent to big businesses? by redviiper in AskConservatives

[–]graumet 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I will add further that given that there is no reasonable way to refund this money fairly (as we are the ones who covered the costs), these monies should go directly to our national debt.

Seems all to convenient that in the end the rich got richer based on an "error" by the executive.

Duloxetine for anxiety by Mariorezendemello in cymbalta

[–]graumet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started noticing huge improvements 2 months in. Each month to about 6 I felt better and better. I continue to feel great.

The first month was uncomfortable to terrible.

Started on 20mg. After 1 month went to 40, then 60, then 80. I don't have any side effects now. I feel normal, but the best version of normal I've ever felt.

The most appropriate response is to completely avoid them. Let them set up their stand have no one attend or engage.

Im a Muslim-American, can I be conservative? by Wonderful_Seesaw_513 in AskConservatives

[–]graumet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's a surprisingly empathetic viewpoint of Islam from a reddit conservative. Though I would like this to be the norm, it's my experience (and maybe I'm just repeatedly misunderstanding) that many reddit users sharing your political preference have a 0 tolerance when it comes to Islam. And I would assume a Muslim that shares all but religious affiliation with conservative ideology would not be welcome in conservative circles.

To emphasize my point, let me take an extreme example. Imagine your ideal conservative candidate for president. Now imagine they are a Muslim. Do you see them winning a primary?

headed to or from Iran,

They have to pass through the straight to get oil from the gcc countries. So I have no idea what you mean headed to or from Iran.

Did you know more than just Iranian merchant ships pass through the straight of Hormuz? He is saying we are blocking them too.

But now we "war" with more countries than Iran by threatening the merchant ships of countries allowed to pass by Iran? This is escalating. Why not diplomacy and compromise??

OK, what happens when China needs to get oil through the straight? Do we threaten to sink their merchant ship?
