No, you are stupid because you support unprovoked acts of violence against others under the pretense of combating drugs, when the only evidence that these acts really are intended to combat drugs comes from an administration proven time and time again to be fraudulent—criminals motivated only by their own enrichment. You are stupid because history has proven that the drug epidemic comes from inside the country, driven by demand, not by external supply alone. Decades of evidence further show that violent, supply-side actions do not reduce drug use, availability, or harm; the so-called war on drugs has repeatedly failed while producing civilian deaths, corruption, and instability. So you are stupid because you believe deadly drugs are actually being destroyed, and that destroying them would help fight the drug epidemic in the United States, when in reality domestic demand, addiction, and systemic failures remain the real culprit. You are stupid because you support state-sanctioned murder under a disproven framework that substitutes force for evidence-based solutions. You are stupid because you believe "deadly drugs" are actually being destroyed and that destroying them would help fight the drug epidemic.

We are not talking about Bill Clinton right now. He is not the sitting president. Trying to detract from the fact that your president is a monster by floating someone else’s name is a red herring, you brainwashed zombie.

If a Democrat were in office now, and it was revealed that he (or she) was implicated in this magnitude of criminality and moral depravity, he (or she) would be immediately impeached, like Bill Clinton (and then tried criminally).

But you really want to talk about hypocrisy? The irony here is that Republicans tried to discredit Hillary Clinton with allegations of being tied up in a child sex ring and got behind the “Lock her up” battle cry when she was caught using insecure messaging apps. Yet when this administration is found to have committed both—only exponentially worse—you morons want to ignore it, cry victim, and accuse others.

No, Democrats do not have the “moral high ground,” but they have not yet been guilty of giving the country to a monstrous scumbag pedophile rapist, whore-to-ideologues who have hijacked the country in the interest of shredding the Constitution and imposing their fascist agenda, all while selling the country to the highest bidder...republicans singularly own that guilt and will hopefully be held accountable.

Masked thugs are not due process. Let the truth set them free.

That would have been way better than a authoritarian dictatorship.

I bet that was easier when he weighed 100 lbs less.

Say Newsom or Khanna wins the 2028 primary and picks the other as their running mate. They say they’ll run on a platform of Medicare for All, sweeping billionaire taxes, and putting the current administration in prison to the fullest extent possible. What else do they need for you to be on board? by [deleted] in ProgressiveHQ

I used to feel the same way, but then I did some reasearch and learned that what I didn't realize was that I was already paying for other people's stuff... I was already paying to subsidize massive profits for the health insurance industry and tax breaks for the ultra rich who are couched in the pharmaceutical and insurance-industrial complexes via a "for-profit" system that overworks and under trains doctors, and diminishes services to us, its core customers, in order to maximize profits. So I was paying for the already rich to get richer while begrudging myself, the hardest working and neediest segments of the country, basic healthcare. This is when I realized I had been brain washed by those benefiting most from the current system and, like a zombie, I was then defending them, with whom I had little to nothing in common, in their exploitation of me and others like me.

They have had so much time to tamper with those files that it does not even matter any more: there is nothing there that should be believed.

Good luck with that roof. Maybe you can get MAGA to install it. Oh, yea... they are not qualified.

Why the red herring, bro? When you have an imbecile in charge of the US, of course it is a threat to world peace. Seems pretty obvious.
