The worst is seeing so many people on the right recognize various media hoaxes only to then turn around and swallow the vaccine narrative or the Ukraine narrative.

The traitor republicans will choose from among themselves the three reps with the safest re-election prospects to side with the dems against conservative voters. If the entire republican establishment could simultaneously betray their constituents without destroying the party and ending the charade, they would do so. Instead, they strategically sacrifice just enough votes to pass anti-conservative legislation while maintaining the illusion of “majority support” for conservative interests. When push comes to shove, they will fracture and destroy the party if that’s what is required to keep the globalist agenda going.

If the victim is white, the defendant is black, and there are blacks on the jury, it doesn’t matter who the prosecutor is.

Remember OJ? Remember how shocked people were that the prosecutor’s could fumble such an obvious win? Yeah, that’s not what happened. Black jurors acquitted OJ as revenge for the Rodney King verdict. There’s black female OJ juror on record saying this.

Trump carries about a 90% approval rating among Republican voters and about a 10% approval rating among Republican politicians and pundits. He is the embodiment of the massive disconnect between the people and the party.

This is a retarded stat. Half the country hates half the country, so that’s 50% gone from the jump. The neocons hate MAGA and the progressives hate the neoliberals, so now you’re down to 25%. All it takes is a few corrupt assholes to drop it down another 5-10%. So yeah, of course congress has terrible approval from the general population. How else could it be?

Leftist governors flout federal law all the time. There’s no reason why conservative governors shouldn’t do the same, especially when the law as written is on their side. What are the feds gonna do? Descend on Texas and arrest the local governments? That’s literally Civil War 2.

Libertarians and classical liberals think country = nation. Just as retarded.

This is by design. The American government is running everything but can’t be seen running everything, so they delegate some of their power to subordinate nations.

Germany is basically an American vassal state.

Think of the trillions we’ve spent on welfare for a certain demographic.

We should be on mars.

The most important resource you have is your time. Giving the nfl your attention is giving them your most valuable resource. Participating in the nfl ecosystem is arguably just as important as directly giving them money.

Stop being weak. Stop desperately seeking excuses. Stop watching pro sports.

You’re advocating for national socialism.

I’m not passing judgment. I’m merely pointing out that it is impossible for your developed nation to protect its workers from the competition created by desperate third world workers unless your nation adopts strict protectionist and immigration policies to maintain high wages. Similarly, you need aggressive redistributive policies to prevent excessive accrual of wealth in the hands of a small elite, else they attain the political and financial capacity to suppress wages and workers. This redistribution must, again, be restricted only to existing citizenry.

I’ve worked both 5/8 and 4/10, and there are definitely trade offs. Three day weekends are obviously great, but losing two hours off on work days can really suck. Depending on your obligations, those two hours might be your only free time, and not having any free time for four days can burn you out fast. The way my life is structured, I was basically just driving, working, eating, and sleeping for four straight days. Switching to 5/8 allowed me to unwind with a book or a movie every night, and that boosted my quality of life immensely.

To be clear: you think American wages should be determined by cost of living and quality of life in shithole countries. Why not outsource it all to literal slave labor? Those people are so desperate that they’ll work for room and board. Imagine the profits! Not sure who we’re gonna sell to given our own citizens are unemployed and penniless, but that’s what exports are for! My only fear is that I might get stabbed to death by that homeless meth head while walking between my 500k car and my luxury high rise apartment. I think that dude’s name is Bob. Didn’t he used to work for us?

Alternatively: the elites printed trillions of dollars, triggering massive inflation, and are now trying to blame that inflation on rising wages despite the fact that rising wages trailed inflation. There’s no reason why workers shouldn’t be getting a more real dollars of our devalued currency. In fact, the purported rationale for printing money is backdoor redistribution from rich to poor. Have whatever opinion you like on that subject, but certainly you can agree that we shouldn’t be redistributing money from the working class to the elite? Because that’s what “inflation + stagnant wages” means.

This is literally grounds for impeachment of a judge. Judges aren’t meant to be petty emotional tyrants sending trite messages to their political and cultural enemies. Judges are meant to be impartial and stoic arbiters of the law as written.

If they’re going to print the money regardless, the people might as well grift some of it, too. Why shouldn’t we get free money if corporations and governments are going to cash in 24/7/365? The only alternative is to turn off the printing presses, and that isn’t happening with voting.
