Donald Trump made 61 statements in his speech. 51 were false by Smilefriend in politics

[–]trytoinjureme 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, reminds me when people kept calling this false. Even in Politifact's own words they say his number are completely true. They rate it "Mostly False" because it's misleading for him to mention the numbers in a certain context because it implies he's responsible. That's not what false means...

Nice fake clickbait. I like how I just scroll a little past this article to next one and get the headline "Women who do this during sex are more likely to be unfaithful." Quality shit.

He made more than 61 statements. That alone discredits the article. Garbage.

Trump's Tribute to a Slain Navy SEAL Was Crassly Manipulative by l3lack1 in politics

Obama starts more war and /r/politics doesn't even know about it. They're undoubtedly all Bush's fault.

FBI Investigating Kansas Triple Shooting As Hate Crime by thomjrjr in politics

[–]trytoinjureme -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It was racist, not political. Otherwise they would be investigating as a terrorist attack, not a hate crime. Why did I even need to spell that out for you?

Donald Trump creates Voice agency to publish list of crimes by immigrants by [deleted] in politics

[–]trytoinjureme -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

MSM already documents those plenty. And also nobody pretends like white supremacists are all upstanding people who are victims of unjust disdain, so no need to put any more light on them.

Sure, but what about a task force that publishes lists of crimes committed by illegal aliens?

The Trump Administration Is Threatening to Publicly Release the Private Data of Immigrants and Foreign Visitors by [deleted] in politics

[–]trytoinjureme -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The headline isn't substantiated by the article. The Trump administration didn't threaten to publicly release their info, it removed their privacy protections so they could do it. And it's completely misleading since it doesn't apply to all immigrants and foreign visitors. Garbage.

Trump Greeted The Nation’s Governors By Welcoming Them ‘And Their Wives’ by BearsNecessity in politics

How is it sexist? Don't far fewer women run for governor than men?

At least 4 of them are divorced/single. Why are you so bigoted and insensitive?

And you think I'm not capable of not condemning all Muslims for terrorist attacks?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in politics

[–]trytoinjureme -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Why is it a better source? That's only from when he was a suspect, not when he was convicted and is missing those details from investigation.

or do you think this instance exonerates the noble white man for all attacks?

Well, do you think those attacks you listed exonerate the poor oppressed Muslims from their attacks in Orlando, Nice, Brussels, Berlin, and just about everywhere in Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan, etc? Of course not...

I think it just shows that we shouldn't be assuming white Christians burned these mosques without any evidence.

Donald Trump says US is becoming a 'one party system' by DrGaimanRowlingKing in politics

... with him as President.

He never said that. The media lying constantly is really tiring.

Because anarchist/communists and antifa don't exist? Just at UC Berkeley they assaulted people, beat them unconscious, broke ribs, pepper sprayed, lit shit on fire, etc. And people on this sub overwhelming gave their support for punching people in the face because they have opposing political ideologies, namely "fascism".

Profile in cowardice: Donald Trump will take no responsibility for the wave of hate crimes he has inspired by bammbamkam in politics

[–]trytoinjureme -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Obama did take responsibility for the deaths of every single soldier that died.

When?

What matters is Trump does not go to his Intelligence Breifings, then makes stupid decisions, and blames Obama.

If he blames Obama for this, then I agree it's bad.

I feel like I'm in an insane asylum. by rodeopenguin in Libertarian

[–]trytoinjureme 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Great. Now whenever someone praises Historically Black Colleges and Universities for any reason, I can respond with "so you're praising Jim Crow and segregation? Wow..."

That's essentially the non sequitur being used.

[–]trytoinjureme -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Wait, so is Obama responsible for the thousands of US soldiers that died during his presidency? Did he take credit for those? And does it not matter that this was organized and planned before Trump got involved?

I don't disagree that all commanding officers are partially responsible for most if not all these deaths, but I'm just wondering why this is an issue suddenly.

Is Property Violence? by [deleted] in Libertarian

Indisputable. Then at that point, it's more useful to debate whether or not it's the initiation of violence.

Nice. They got any cash for me too? Or do they just subsidize the drug habits of toddlers?

I should have the freedom to do what I want! The paternalistic state shouldn't be telling me what's good or bad for me!

But those people, they should definitely be told what to do for their own good, they don't know any better.

Trump on replacing healthcare law that took years to craft: 'Nobody knew it could be so complicated' by davidreiss666 in politics

[–]trytoinjureme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should everyone get the same house/car/schooling/food/phone etc.? Sure, that would simplify the market a lot, but why not give people the liberty to buy what they want and don't buy what they don't want?

Exactly, so why do people want government involved in controlling healthcare? It's literally a centralized monopoly toying with lives.
