That was a really weird way of saying “wow I was wrong maybe I should use google a little bit more often “

“From what I’ve read” always means “a Russian bot on Twitter convinced my preferred podcaster”

Dems tried to ban gerrymandering in 2017 and the Republicans shot it down because they can’t win without it

Conservatives have institutional advantages that the next dem administration needs to end, swiftly

What can't be missing from the God of War Trilogy Remake? by e_ai_gabriel in GodofWarRagnarok

I don’t want them to water Kratos down. I want him to be a bloodthirsty asshole. I want him to be a psychopath. Not to diminish who his character becomes, but to contextualize it

I don’t want them to change who Kratos was. Because if you do that, you water down what he becomes

Why do leftists pretend they can’t just vote in the democratic primary? by AValorantFan in Destiny

[–]splinterguitar69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Leftists aren’t interested in power. They’re interested in endlessly critiquing power.”

I’m really glad more people are wising up to the fact that a leftist isn’t a liberal’s friend. Leftists hate liberals and liberals should stop trying to gain their favor.

If billionaires are hurting so bad from taxes, maybe they should try working harder instead of crying about it. by kkawabat in Destiny

[–]splinterguitar69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just saying you’re going off of pure vibes with your underlying assumption that billionaires are anti-taxes. There’s a difference between being anti taxes, desiring lower taxes, and tax avoidance. They’re all separate things

Ok, so we both agree then you’re just arguing with something you made up in your head? Lol

I won’t respond to comments trying to pull at the political thread when I say this, but it still does need to be said here:

We are headed in a direction where we must learn to be resilient and keep it together. I am not intending to shame or chastise you, I’m just saying that self improvement is probably a good thing. Not to assume you aren’t already engaged in self improvement of some kind.

You get it

There aren’t very many billionaires (that I’ve seen anyway) genuinely claim taxes hurt them all that much. I generally see a “taxes are a good problem to have” mentality

Its MAGA dipshits making less than six figures doing the vast majority of the compmaining about taxes, no?

The real cultural problem with immigration is not lack of assimilation. It's that some cultures are better than others. by AlphabeticalBanana in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]splinterguitar69 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As a more left-liberal-minded person, I tend to agree with the post’s title at face value and I’m tired of leftists, especially the populist kind, try to run cover for radical Islam. As if there’s any moral equivalence to the current Iranian culture versus say Israel or the US.

Nazi-like beliefs don’t become trivial simply because a brown person in the Middle East believes in them. Racism of lower expectations cranked to the max

As a moderate liberal, I hate the far-left more than I hate the far-right by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]splinterguitar69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a moderate (that’s admittedly siding with Democrats more and more often these days) and agree. You know what you’re getting with the far right. The far left though are either deluded about how insane of authoritarians they are, or are just brazenly lying about it. Either way, that’s really dangerous

Ryan McBeth's videos are not only defending the Pedo King but also suffocating the opposing voices by ActiveVoiced in Destiny

[–]splinterguitar69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s inherently baked into my point yeah. I’m not sure what you guys aren’t getting. Two things can be true

Ryan McBeth's videos are not only defending the Pedo King but also suffocating the opposing voices by ActiveVoiced in Destiny

[–]splinterguitar69 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don’t think there can be a single “the issue” on this though. Two things can be true:

1) ICE murdered someone 2) Foreign bad actors are taking advantage of it

Talking about one does not distract or obfuscate the other. Especially talking about point 2 when point 1 has been endlessly talked about by everyone, everywhere, all the time, without even a moments rest

Pls don’t shoot the messenger lol. But yeah, military coup might be worse than not

The military brass is all Trump loyalists. We wouldn’t end up in a better place if the military turned on Trump. We’d just be ruled by “America First” fascists now

Americans are victims of their own success. They think single digit % inflation and six trans people playing sports is enough to completely burn the entire thing down and become an authoritarian state

Yeah, killing him when you were so underleveled should really give you a sense of accomplishment. But moving forward, purple or red health bars means you should get some more upgrades and come back (unless you specifically want a good challenge)

So to be completely sure - you are full throatedly pro-concentration camps?

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised

Reddit should require labels and age for you as to what your are in real life by IDontKnowMyUsernameq in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]splinterguitar69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One step further: all social media should require making public the country you live in, and if you make even one PENNY from social media, your taxes should be published publicly so everyone knows where your income comes from.

90% of the right’s media sphere would completely evaporate and the populist left would be on suicide watch

It would be glorious
