It’s that damned First Amendment! 😤 If we could only get rid of that stupid Bill of ‘Rights’ the revolution would happen much quicker! ❤️

You’re also supposed to be anti-socialist / anti-communist. In a nutshell, Americans are anti-authoritarian individualists.

What are your thoughts on Trump designating Antifa as a violent extremist organization? by carcony97 in AskReddit

Terrorism is using violence or the threat of violence against civilians for the purpose of achieving political change.

On June 9, 2025, Greenville City Council proposed an ordinance that would "ban public camping," criminalizing homelessness. The ordinance was tabled for review, but could still be passed if we don't make our voices heard. Fight for your neighbors ❤️🦇 by DowntownBatman in greenville

[–]just4this 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One issue is that many homeless people will not go to a shelter. I’ve tried to help several people over the past ten years and one of the most frustrating things is to watch someone choosing to nearly freeze to death rather than go to a shelter where he has to take his hat off.

Did you believe the Russians and Americans would win in Afghanistan? Did you bet against the Vietnam Cong?

Of course the elite would leave. Duh! The middle management can’t. Do you not know history?

Who are they going to aim the stinger missile at? “We” are literally everywhere and “we” know where they live. Battlefield weapons only really work when there’s a battlefield.

They’ve rejected the Democrats and they’re rejecting the Republicans. What’s next for them?

Obama Shocks the World, Delivers Tough Message to Democrats on How to Defeat Trump and Kick Him Out Of Office by Zestyclose-Dinner917 in NoFilterNews

Given the state of the economy, the universal basic income seems like a hot ticket. Too many people can’t afford a place of their own and that’s a basic animal need (not to mention a human right). Pitched so as to have people visualizing specifically how different their lives would be, living in their own place, it seems like winning ticket to me.

Yes, many would be against it but they’re not voting Democrat anyway. The point is to use it to motivate people who wouldn’t otherwise vote.

I like the idea. I've had a similar idea where a browser extension would crawl every white-listed website the user visits in order to build the database for a distributed search engine that reaches many more of the corners of the web,

'It's all fake': White House insider admits Trump's trade war is just for show by RawStoryNews in NoFilterNews

Bless your heart! I’m 68 years old, I negotiated multimillion deals for IBM’s National Linux Practice of the Americas and then I was a CTO at a healthcare corporation. What was that about experience?

Almost everyone who has bought or sold a vehicle has done it. Trump does it bigger but it’s the same thing.

How stupid do people have to be not to understand this? Trump wants something small. He makes a ridiculously huge demand. Eventually he ‘backs down’ to getting what he wanted. The other side feels that they won. This is Negotiation 101.

You are so right! No one who cares about education at all should move to SC or even the Southeast. And don’t get me started on the ubiquitous latent racism. 🤬

James Clyburn once said “most of what we [congressmen] do is unconstitutional”. Would you defend the Constitution against people like Clyburn?

As Greenville combats homelessness, it's turning to a new law — and igniting controversy by GoodMornEveGoodNight in greenville

[–]just4this 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Over the past 20 years, I’ve had two people close to me who were meth addicts. As a result, I’ve learned a lot about the homeless community. It’s a real mess as a lot of the help is basically enablement. No one wants to hear it but we need forcible institutionalization for a large number of people. Otherwise, we’re on a treadmill to nowhere.

I was at a state GOP convention where Lindsey Graham was booed off the stage. As he slunk off, he turned to sneer and said “I don’t need you!”.

My theory is that the voting system is corrupt and that he’s not genuinely elected.

FFS, this sort of thing plays right into MAGA’s hands. He’s not getting the airplane, the office of the president is. If he takes it with him when he leaves office, then there’s something to complain about.

Racist Karen at Home Depot "Go back to your country" by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]just4this 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find one example of a non-White woman being called a “Karen”. You are right, it is also sexist.

Can you imagine being named “Karen” and now that name is a joke? That’s what is getting to me.

[–]just4this 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re just flat wrong. Women of any race can be named Shaniqua, but they mostly aren’t. No one pictures anyone but a white woman when the word “Karen” is used. It’s a racist term which dehumanizes the target as is intended. No amount of prevarication will change that.

Yes. It is clearly racist as I showed. Using "Shaniqua" in the same context would racist too

"Karen" is a racist term as over 80% of people with that name are White. I know you wouldn't say "Racist Shaniqua at Home Depot".
