THE INCOME TAX WAS INSTITUTED BECAUSE OF THE LOSS OF MONEY DUE TO PROHIBITION... WHO THE FUCK EDUCATED YOU?

You do realize that the 16th Amendment was ratified in 1913, and that Prohibition didn't occur until 1920, right?

Who "educated" you?

Labeling everything that they dislike as a "-phobia" is linguistic propaganda, designed and used by malicious authoritarians to control useful idiots.

It was just set to 'Private', it seems. Even people who had already joined the community can't access it.

My go-to is that "Rights cannot and do not confer an obligation upon others."

You aren't entitled to my labor. To my skills. To my knowledge, education, experience, or resources in any way. To say that you are is for you to state that you are my master and I am your slave.

Healthcare is not, and cannot be, a "right" that other people are entitled to provide you. Sure, you have the right to go out and get whatever healthcare that you want, but you don't have the right to dictate that others serve you simply because you exist.

If "Healthcare" is a "right," and the government must provide it for you, then so too are guns. As soon as the government starts guaranteeing and providing free weapons to all people simply because those people exist and they have the "right" to guns then yes, healthcare will also be a "right."

Until then, it isn't.

I'm Native American, so I guess I'm approximately Black in the eyes of the Libs.

This comic is hilarious and Coke is retarded.

You cannot simultaneously claim that you want to live in a post-racial, post-gender, post-whatever society, and then reduce everything to an issue of gender/race/etc.

They don't think that racism, sexism, or any other -ism is truly "bad" (because if they did then they wouldn't be trying to focus on race or sex in an effort to combat what they claim is and has been race- or sex-centric "oppression"), they just want to be mad and think that it's their turn to be what they perceive to be oppressive/hateful/bigoted.

In the same way that many surface-level edgelord atheists cast off Christians as being simple-minded people who just attribute everything good as being "God" and everything bad as being "Satan," so too do these people legitimately believe that "Everything Bad" = "White" and "Everything Good = Non-White."

It's a pretty narrow worldview they shoehorn themselves into.

Amusing how Leftists claim that:

  • Asians here in American are a historically-oppressed group (Chinese slaves, Japanese internment camps, etc.) who were victimized by society due to their race, which was is direct example of the racial supremacy/intolerance that defines America

While simultaneously stating that Asians are "White" and thus need to be victimized and oppressed based entirely on their race.

Pick one, Leftists.

Color me shocked that the heads of the committee and subcommittees are all Democrats.

It's almost as if everyone who's Left-leaning is a malicious authoritarian who can't handle objective reality, let alone dissent from the unwashed masses that they disdain from their ivory tower.

I was looking for the same thing for the longest time and couldn't find anything.

Eventually I just went with a lower that had one built in and called it a day.

BAD Levers are a Bad Idea.

They have been the sole source of on-the-range NDs that I've seen.

Use a system that doesn't put any other controls inside the trigger guard if you want to have ambi bolt-drop functionality like a PDQ bolt release or an LWRC/LMT/Radian lower.

"Trickle-down economics" is a Leftist strawman construct.

And never stop reminding Biden voters:

"This is what you voted for."

  • Skyrocketing healthcare costs? You voted for this.

  • Depressed wages? You voted for this.

  • Decreased earning power? You voted for this.

  • Astronomical fuel costs? You voted for this.

  • Rampant unemployment? You voted for this.

  • Lack of "living wage" jobs (whatever the fuck that means, but throw it back in the face of these nutcases) due to outsourcing and erosion of the middle class's standing? You voted for this.

Never stop reminding these people, every step of the way and with every new negative that occurs under the Biden Admin, that they voted for this and this is what they get.

If I paid my loans back or never had loans in the first place, they have no right to take my money to pay for an education I never received.

I couldn't agree more.

This is part of the 'personal responsibility' function, as I see it: You were responsible with your finances/lifestyle/goals to the point that you either paid your loans back or never had loans in the first place. People who were not as responsible as you or I do not get to take our money to "pay back" an education that was never received or that was already paid off.

All this 'HODL' business has been ridiculous; I had 200 shares from years back and happily sold them when they crested $300. Fuck holding on for an uncertain pipe dream when I can immediately realize a 6,000% ROI.

Sue to recoup interim losses, with compounding interest of course, from the day you started paying off your loans.

Every dollar you spent is a dollar you should not have had to spend if the broad criteria for "loan forgiveness" is just having debt that you don't like.

Don't want to pay back the loan you took out, Millennials? Too bad. Pay it back like tens of millions of your America peers have done. Pay it back like millions of Americans currently are.

Don't like it? Too fucking bad. You took it out, pay it back.

How about they do what every other oppressed group of now-successful people here in America did?

Adopt Judeo-Christian values centered around hard work, self-sacrifice, delayed gratification, personal responsibility, and forming and maintaining a nuclear family.

The Chinese, the Japanese, the Irish, the Italians, the Mexicans, the Germans, all of these groups of people were oppressed and serf-class at one point or another in US history, and now they comprise some of the most successful groups in the US. Want to know why? They fostered and spread these ideas and ideals, and refused to subsist as perpetual victims.
