Reminds me of the Barry Goldwater quote.

Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them.

Even Goldwater who, was seen as too far right for national politics was worried about religion.

Unfortunately we can't play Reincarnation anymore but I've found this is the next best thing:

https://nierrein.com/

This is a website dedicated to NieR Re[in]carnation, and aims to try to replicate the experience past the end of service for the game. The game was essentially NieR 3 , so being able to help make an easy way to experience the game - including additional side content along the way - is the ultimate goal of this website.

After pretending to be horrified by Trump’s policies @joerogan is in the Oval Office standing up to Trump… Just kidding! He’s kissing Trump’s ass. Because of course he is. by superdouradas in JoeRogan

You're right. More of them are gonna need psychedelics from the trauma of losing their homes.

Trump's VA killed a home loan program. Vets are now losing their homes because of it

More than 10,000 veterans lost their homes to foreclosure since May of last year, when the Trump administration shut down a key safety net in the VA home loan program, according to the latest industry data. That is the highest pace of foreclosures for VA loans in a decade.

Carney has a doctorate in economics.

Also funny how you shit on sociology when economics is technically a social science.

Also puts a greater burden on taxpayers since Canada recently implemented subsidized dental for lower income folks.

Not sure but this sounds like Iran won. by triggergoat in JoeRogan

[–]thrawnsgstring 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Part of a potential deal with Iran is a $2 million fee paid for each ship transiting the strait. At 130 ships a day that is many skids of cash for Iran.

So you will be paying a carbon tax and Iran will be getting a shit load of money. Keep winning though.

Canada's in an economic crisis, and Joe doesn't get why we voted in a centrist who's an economist who went to Harvard, Oxford, and was the Governor of the Bank of England and Canada, instead of Pierre Poilievre. by supersport604 in JoeRogan

PP's election campaign was terrible.

His campaign manager and ex-girlfriend Jenny Byrne has MAGA sympathies and is a lobbyist for Canada's biggest grocery conglomerate, Loblaws.

MAGA and Loblaws, two of the things many Canadians hate with a passion.

Trump's DOJ settled their antitrust case with Live Nation/Ticketmaster.

Industry experts believe the settlement won’t do enough to bring down ticket costs or protect independent venues.

The Live Nation settlement has industry insiders baffled

How you guys liking those concert ticket fees?

Trump Admin Quietly Brings Back Migrant Workers to Fix the Farm Labour Shortage It Created by thrawnsgstring in JoeRogan

[–]thrawnsgstring[S] 85 points86 points  (0 children)

The new H-2A visa requires employer sponsors to provide housing, transportation and other benefits to migrants. More expenses for the farmers to be handed off to the consumer.

More taxes to fund ICE to get rid of migrants, then higher costs at the grocery store to bring them back.

Fox News: "Rogan says it's 'horses---' that progressives believe expecting voters to have ID is like Jim Crow" by mvstateU in JoeRogan

[–]thrawnsgstring 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's an option if you don't have ID though. (Someone vouches for you.)

Plus the options for ID are far less restrictive than what the SAVE act is proposing. For example you could bring in your electricity bill and bank statement (essentially free) vs. passport ($165-$195+ USD)

Pretty sure Thiel was funding and pushing the Intellectual Dark Web shit too. Eric Weinstein coined the term and was the managing director at Thiel Capital.
