> "The President's New Clothes", a satire and parody of 'The Emperor's New Clothes' featuring a naked Donald Trump that we self published and have been sneaking into stores locally in Texas.
Pretty sure the only reason they say they're fighting Nazi's is because they call themselves fucking "anti-fa" the literal street fighting communists of Weimar Germany - i.e. the motherfuckers who essentially sparked Nazism in the first fucking place.

I truly, honestly believe that anger and rampant drug problems in cities are the result of cities. The human brain has trouble dealing with the overstimulation and sheer volume of other people around it.
Of course drug use is higher. People are coping with their brains being pummeled by stressors causing higher rates of mental problems. Throwing taxes at the problem won’t overpower biology.
>There is infinitely more evidence that Bill Clinton is a rapist for example, as there is at least one woman who still publicly claims to have been raped by him.
There is literally a book about Clinton, but no, let's attack Kavanaugh for being accused by someone with little to no evidence lmao.

Yup.
Comes form one of the best books I've ever read as a fan of military history. The low-kinetic warfare of tribal societies and the high-kinetic warfare of medieval European societies were unprepared to engage with each other and caused absolute chaos.
You could probably find a lot of "criminals" to empathize with. The problem is that it is simply too easy to labeled a criminal by the state. There is a book out there called Three Felonies A Day that is a pretty good read.
> But I do believe we are on a slow path towards a similar outcome if nothing changes. That is what I meant by my comment. Interment camps happened before this country and they can happen again.
Under a Democrat.

Oh no! Someone trying to change things!
>My grandpa got fucking shot at by Nazi's and he has the same fucking view. You can insult me and call me a "fucking worthless piece of shit" but you dont get to say ANYTHING to him.
Why not? Old people can be wrong too. They're well known for mental issues.
Don't hide behind your grandpa's rocking chair, especially when you're the one who bought him into the discussion for victim points.
I highly recommend /u/BadgerKomodo reads this book:
https://www.amazon.com/Liberal-Fascism-American-Mussolini-Politics/dp/0767917189
In great detail it explains how leftist ideologies feed a cycle of empowering governments to seize rights, stifle political speech, eliminate the ability for it's people to defend itself and subsequently the slow descent into totalitarian nightmares.
With countless real world examples of leftist ideologies leading to totalitarian dictatorships the book is well received by critics.
Jesus Christ. You can’t blame Trump for your healthcare costs. There is just no data to support it.

Just look at that god damned chart. There is the real “Thanks Obama”.
I am sure the former President meant well (indeed McCain’s plan was strikingly similar), but the reality is that the insurance industry premiums have been skyrocketing year after year with no end in sight. It began under Obama and it continues now.
This person probably didn’t see their taxes go up. Most Americans saw them go down. It’s honestly more likely that he failed to do them properly and using every deduction he was allowed.
Even if they did increase, it’s probably dwarfed by the premium increases.
His changing financial situation isn’t due to Trump’s malfeasance, but the shitty Obamacare and Probably Ops choices.
I have lupus is seriously a gem of a phrase when speaking against politics. Lupus itself is of course nothing to laugh at.
I didn't say marx made fascism you ideological dead end.
I'm sick of being told to read and reread marx like he had some divinely inspired truth that somehow hasn't mapped to reality yet. Here's a book about the origins of fascism: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0691006296/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_3T68V8J1K95GGY5GYT0F
Neil Stephenson, who used to write good books, wrote a book about some dude who's brain was preserved on a computer, blah blah blah. Anyways, the world he set it in is the U.S. in 30ish years from now. You have the super-elite urban meccas, which of course are where all the smart and good people live, and then you have the rural "Ameristan" areas that are basically free-fire zones full of hillbillies that refused to be controlled by the smart and good urban people.
Yes, you can tell the book was written by someone with severe TDS who doesn't understand a fucking thing about people or parts of the country outside urban elite areas. https://www.amazon.com/Fall-Dodge-Hell-Neal-Stephenson/dp/006245871X
Standard Oil's monopoly was borne almost entirely out of patent restrictions against competition.
U.S. Steel was never broken up by Sherman Antitrust laws, and was out competed on the open market by Bethlehem Steel and foreign imports.
To illustrate just how patents support monopolies, Android devices require clearance of some 310 patents owned by Microsoft.
While I won't suggest that IP be abolished entirely, the current state of affairs is such that it's more beneficial for a company to sit on patents than innovate to get ahead of the competition. The high profile patent troll cases are a good illustration of what I mean.
To most people, socialism = i get stuff for free
That appeals to a lot of people, even some greeks claim that had greece been socialist then all of their economic problems would of been gone because 'socialist countries never had to undergo austerity'
Which is quite stupid since friggin cuba went into austerity when the USSR who was their #1 customer, collapsed.
From this same guy.
> Your grandfather may well have been an authentically good dude while much of the rest of the surviving Polish public collaborated. Plenty of honorable resistors survived. He could also be lying, but frankly I'm more than willing to take your word for it. That said, if he survived the war as a non-Jewish resistor in Poland he was in the minority. Organized resistance in Poland was almost entirely Jewish, Communist, or was killed by the Germans and Communists. The bare fact of the matter is a ton of Poles died in the war. The ones who didn't were largely the ones who figured out how to keep the Germans form killing them, and often that meant collaborating.
If you're authentically interested here's a good example of a monograph that describes the situation in German occupied Poland. Its been assigned to me in two separate classes on the holocaust, and was pretty clearly meant in both to provoke a debate on whether or not Poles are complicit. I come down firmly on the side that feels that they are, but there are very respectable academics who really know their shit and, even though they form the minority in this, disagree with me.
https://www.amazon.com/Hunt-Jews-Betrayal-Murder-German-Occupied/dp/0253010748
That said, I care a lot more about the authenticity of historical record and academic consensus than I do about your family history. That lends you absolutely zero authority on the subject.
I took a women’s studies class in college (curiosity, not to get pussy). It was absolutely worthless. We spent half the semester discussing a book about Brazilian transgender prostitutes. No joke.
This was the book: https://www.amazon.com/Travesti-Brazilian-Transgendered-Prostitutes-Sexuality/dp/0226461009. It was interesting, but not the type of thing I envisioned studying in college.
You are correct. Here is the actual quote:
>"Except for the field organizers of strikes, who were pretty tough monkeys and devoted, most of the so-called Communists I met were middle-class, middle-aged people playing a game of dreams. I remember a woman in easy circumstances saying to another even more affluent: 'After the revolution even we will have more, won't we, dear?' Then there was another lover of proletarians who used to raise hell with Sunday picknickers on her property.
>"I guess the trouble was that we didn't have any self-admitted proletarians. Everyone was a temporarily embarrassed capitalist. Maybe the Communists so closely questioned by the investigation committees were a danger to America, but the ones I knew—at least they claimed to be Communists—couldn't have disrupted a Sunday-school picnic. Besides they were too busy fighting among themselves."

In the quote's complete context "temporarily embarrassed capitalist" means something entirely different (and nearly the exact opposite of) reddit's typically intended meaning of "temporarily embarrassed millionaire".
In Japan, a country famous for its disaster preparedness, over 300 people just died in July from typhoons and related flooding/weather. No one ever compares the deaths in Puerto Rico due to Maria with other Caribbean islands effected. The storm was massive. Deaths were inevitable. The US did what it could do. Honestly this shit is insulting to all the people who went there to help.
Could the response have been better? Maybe. No one is willing to look into the local government and everyone places complete blame on the feds. We never do that with other disasters in the US. This is a republic with division of power - local governments are much more powerful in the US compared to other countries. Yes, PR is not a state, but disaster preparedness is still largely their responsibility. And to say the federal government doesn’t care is disingenuous. They threw dozens of billions USD to repair PR after this.
I guess her book 'Mr. Right, Right Now! How a Smart Woman Can Land her Dream Man in 6 Weeks' didn't help her out too much.
The New Deal extended the Depression in many ways. Nobody paid the 90% tax rate. We were already a superpower when most of that other stuff was put in place.
I always find it funny when liberals boast about the Interstate Highway System. One would think you guys would be horrified by it, since it was built primarily for the military, not for the average American. It was inspired by how the Autobahn gave Germany a military advantage in WWII by allowing for the faster transport of supplies.

>People dont care about facts anymore as soon as they are brainwashed enough with hate speech.
People don't care about facts anymore if they're choosing a sandwich for lunch, or supporting local sports team. This is not unique to 'hate speech'.
>If it is so useless why is it working well enough to not be up for debate in countries that dont suffer from populism? Because even the most far left person who was smart enough to be in parliament does not doubt the stance
Because most countries in the western world (IE Europe) lean left compared the US. Someone said that a leftist in the states is a conservative in the UK.
>Academia has all but abandoned the classical approach to intellectual engagement. Now prevailing liberal positions are treated as dogma. Tangentially, I was recently told that high schools in the US don't teach logic. We're fucked.
Spot on. I actually agree with the left that Milo and his entourage argue in bad faith and are mostly hacks and trolls, but banning them from speaking at public universities definitely crosses a line, and I think most honest leftists even acknowledge that.
Alexa does not have the direct analytical data that Reddit has. Their data is an estimation based on other sources. Just look at this source, it's an estimation https://www.similarweb.com/website/reddit.com#overview
Another, https://www.statista.com/statistics/325144/reddit-global-active-user-distribution/
Obviously this is Desktop traffic so we don't have figures on mobile.
Other thing to note, there are reports that claim roughly 40% of web traffic is fake which is traffic coming from bots. Reddit is very easy to game, so some food for thought.
This always sounded too much like a bunch of Internet Tough Guys pretending to be the Lord Inquisitors to be real.
But then, some people act like that IRL.
Anyone who wants a fairly short, fun-to-read book about how the Church kept literacy and the written heritage of Greece and Rome alive during the Dark Ages should read "How the Irish Saved Civilization: The Untold Story of Ireland's Heroic Role From the Fall of Rome to the Rise of Medieval Europe". It's a tremendously inspiring and uplifting true story about people persevering as their world collapsed around them - great for these black-pilled times. There's an Audible version, too.

This is misquoted and misattributed to Steinbeck all the time. The real quote is Steinbeck criticizing hypocritical left-wing people in the middle class. I am sure he would find it humorous that it is now a favorite with left-wing people in the middle class.

PBS needs to not get anymore money.
Even their "spider documantry" has feminist propaganda in it. Also look at the "professional response" that PBS gave to comments pointing out their idiocy.
"Pilfered" sure is a big word for someone who thinks a political party and an economic system are religions. I even know the web page they got it from http://www.thesaurus.com/browse/steal.
Also if they looked at the definition what they said is "whites feast on what they've stolen (minor items) in small quantities"; based on context I dont think thats what they were going for.
And heaven forbid you don't want to steal from someone else. You're not being fair, you're just acting like a temporarily embarrassed millionaire.
I think that Steinbeck quote must be posted to /r/politics no less than 100 times a day.

It's pretty much the same as the documentation required to get a job, which is a pretty inclusive list. If you're able to use healthcar.gov, then you're probably way good to vote.
Why is it so implausible that he's read a fucking book and "misunderstood" it rather than lying about reading it. I've read all sorts of political books that I don't agree with but no one says I'm lying when I say I've read Ramayana or the Quran or Art of War etc. Why is it everyone lies about reading communist books. I'd find it more plausible that someone read Das Kapital than The Wealth of Nations, because TWON is dense as fuck and pointless to read when you have standardized econ textbooks.
Literally the article that triggered the quarantine.
And if you google "Violence on Reddit" you will see within the last few hours, pretty much everyone ran with the story.

You said Americans have more medical debt than ever before and now are trying to compare it to Europe instead of the past? It costs more to have kids today than it did in the past.

> Ironically enough, a BIG problem in the workforce is companies offering bullshit hours like "34 hours part time" to avoid paying insurance costs. With all of the people working part time jobs who want to work full time, full time employees are working MORE hours.
If you clicked your link and read any of it you'd know your arguing against yourself. It says the number of hours hasn't since 2000. Nobody is working more, and part time workers have gone down. Though if we look at the bigger picture, we have never worked less. https://clockify.me/working-hours. Notice how these numbers are decreasing over time?
And finally, working conditions doesn't equal pay. There really isn't much more to say than than what I already have. I recognize you don't want to go get a better job because you think everyone else will copy you and it'll drive down your wages. I can't help you with that. I'm sorry we got taken off the gold standard and starting off shoring jobs. But quitting your retail job in protest isn't going to help you or anyone else.
If one wants to see how little has changed in nearly 2500 years, Nicomachean Ethics (wiki) is a great book.

Using that logic, the party of the Confederacy must still mean slavery and racism too since nothing ever changes meaning.
Uh Oh. Look at this popular flag! Now I know that people wearing it claim that it's because of pride in the people and their local heritage, but in the 19th century, it was a battle flag for a rouge group who took over California for no reason other than to take all the land from the rightful Mexican owners. Obviously all the liberals in California really mean racism when they wear clothing like this.
^^ This is the type of obvious bull shit you would have to listen to if conservatives were as stupid as the liberals on this site.
Glad to help. :) For anyone interested in conservative economics, here's a list of resources (off the top of my head, so apologies if I forget something obvious):
- Friedman's Free to Choose--the video series that /u/marzBigL posted, as well as the book.
- Friedman's Capitalism and Freedom (Thanks to /u/jac5 for reminding me that Free to Choose and Capitalism and Freedom are different books).
- This rap video (no, really!). It's a surprisingly well done explanation of Keynes and Hayek in the form of a rap battle between the two.
- Thomas Sowell's book Basic Economics
- Hayek's The Road to Serfdom (less economics, more philosophical, but the economic implications are clear)
- This episode of the Firing Line with Bill Buckley. Friedman is his guest for the night. If you have amazon prime, then you can watch it for free. Otherwise, I'm pretty sure there are clips from the show on youtube.
A) I wasn't talking just about catastrophic plans.
B) No it didn't. If you're under 30, you can buy one easily. Over 30, you have to provide a reason, but there's a whole litany of them.

They do now have to cover basic preventative services too, but other than that they're pretty much the same. They don't cost much, but the deductibles are crazy high.

"I think the president deserves credit for getting us this far. No president has put as much pressure on North Korea as Donald Trump has, and that's a good thing," CBS News senior national security contributor Michael Morell said Friday on "CBS This Morning." Morell spent more than three decades at the CIA, becoming the deputy and acting director. But he said the outcome of the Kim-Moon summit was "not surprising."
"He's put unprecedented pressure on North Korea, both militarily and economically," Winnefeld said. "By the same token, North Korea feels they put unprecedented pressure on us by achieving the nuclear weapons capability. But I would give the president good credit for placing that pressure on the North."

"South Korea's foreign minister has said she believes President Donald Trump is largely responsible for bringing North Korean leader Kim Jong-un to the negotiating table.
Speaking ahead of Friday's historic summit between the leaders of North and South Korea, Kang Kyung-wha told CNN that the US President had played a significant role in bringing the two sides together. "Clearly, credit goes to President Trump," Kang told CNN's Christiane Amanpour in Seoul. "He's been determined to come to grips with this from day one."

Not really half, in any case it lost Polish inhabited land, Danish land after a referendum and previously French land to France.

Not half and I also mentioned that.
>Your use of the term arbitrary is incorrect, what you mean to say is "I think US states are bullshit"
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/arbitrary
I don't like to argue semantics, so I will post this to at least prove my use of "arbitrary" isn't incorrect, even if potentially a bit unusual.
Terrorism is the unlawful use or threat of violence especially against the state or the public as a politically motivated means of attack or coercion. We both know the one quoted is trying to argue semantics, to justify the means.
He's arguing semantics in order to sugarcoat the attack, in a somewhat justifiable manner due to his hatred towards the Jewish people, and Israel. The context of that reasoning can be found in his post history.
Also, Terrorism is the unlawful use or threat of violence especially against the state or the public as a politically motivated means of attack or coercion. Again, semantics to justify.

It varies from country to country. In places like Iran and Syria, it's between 50-60%. In Pakistan, it's incredibly bad, reaching over 70% (this includes Pakis abroad too, there are huge rates on incest amongst British Pakis). In Turkey, it's not so bad, but still there.
There are transhumanists out there who want to subject the bad people to involuntary "Moral Enhancement", whereby their neurology is altered to make them more accepting of collectivism and "greater good" thinking.

Slave Stealers - It's about throughout history on rescuing slaves - including today's sex trafficking and servants.

Slavery & Islam: It is about how most religions at one point condoned Slavery and Slavery once in Islam. https://www.amazon.com/Slavery-Islam-Jonathan-C-Brown/dp/1786076357
This is a book worth reading because it gives you tremendous insight into how these loons think.

"As soon as the land of a country has all become private property, the landlords, like all other men, love to reap where they never sowed"
His classical economics uses labor theory of value which Marx later uses. He's a great thinker who people don't really understand.
Even in actual economics/politics majors, you're never really required to read him in entirety. Just snippets so people get an incomplete picture of the man.
The Wealth of Nations was a condemnation of mercantile capitalism in the 1700s. Not an immortal document that claims unregulated capitalism is a god and should be policy forever. He doesn't even call his system "capitalism"
A socialist or a conservative could both read Adam Smith and like him. He even argues for universal education and that it is the role of the state to educate the masses in "science, philosophy, and theatre."
If you have the privilege of higher education, then you're bourgeois.
I know you've never even stepped foot near a copy of Das Kapital or the Communist Manifesto, much less any books on actually successful economic systems like The Wealth of Nations, much less read them past the first sentence, because you seem to think that the bourgeois are just "People I don't like/Rich People/The Ruling Class" when in reality the bourgeois are anyone who isn't a wage slave.
You aren't a wage slave, therefore under your own idealogy you'd be killed by the proletariat in a communist revolution.
Do note that even if you do survive the revolution you strive for, you will inevitably starve to death due to communism's incompetence, the very nature of man, and the government taking your home from you "for the people" and leaving you on the streets.
Of course you will ignore all of this, or even call it propaganda, as you are naive and young.
Friedman's Free to Choose(+Capitalism and Freedom), Sowell's Basic Economics, and Hayek's The Road to Serfdom, as well as Schiff's How Economies Grow and Why They Crash are all sitting on my desk as my next set of books to read(once I polish of Game of Thrones haha)
Like they exist.
My god that's a long link.
Also they're shown in the TV show community in an episode where they play the floor is lava. I'm 90% Certain of that.
Yea it's not like they had a bombing campaign in the 70's and 80's that targeted Businesses, Government Institutions, and homes.

But to your point about an independent, sentient human being. If, say, a person were in a deep coma, but you knew that supporting them for 6 additional months would cause them to come out of the coma, would you kill the human?
BTW. I apologize for being so snarky and ride above. Reddit politics has cause me to argue in this manner. Someone pointed out you were arguing in good faith, so I'll respect that. Once again, I apologize
LMFAO, Jonathan Haidt, who is not in any way a conservative, literally writes about the phenomenon taking place in modern day leftist circles where your political stances are more akin to a religious movement. Who's standing outside Supreme Court houses trying to kill them again??
And it seems that this group earnestly believes that free market is what’s best for a nation. Just because I don’t conform to the sheep in here doesn’t mean that in a lost little kid or don’t have an open mind. Not sure how you can come to that conclusion with the little information I have provided.
I’d defiantly give it a look and pick it up the audio book, because contrary to your statement. I try and see all the viewpoints so I’m not just biasing myself. I also haven’t decided where I sit, but I can see the problems in the world and the systems we live in.
I have a decent background in economics, but you can’t forget. Western economics is capitalist centric so if you get an economic degree your defiantly more likely to lean towards capitalist economic policies since that’s what you learn lol.
Why does it matter where I am. We’re in an American political sub talking about American and global affairs. My location means nothing to this discussion lol.
I’ll go read that book but why don’t you do the same for me then? This guy has a phd in economics and a MA in history from the Yale university. He went to school with a lot of the people in the white house that currently control the economic portion of the country so he learned the same shit they did but seems to arrive at different conclusions.
Have an open mind and give it a read and we’ll touch base in a couple weeks and see what we got. https://www.amazon.com/Sickness-System-Capitalism-Pandemics-Itself/dp/1735601306
I suspect the OP is a fan of some alternate history:
Spoiler Alert: Brown and black people can be every bit as nasty and inhumane as any other color.
Oh yes letting other dudes bang your wife isn’t being a cuck it’s just an open relationship. Really splitting hairs.
You want more mainstream? You want more blatant examples? Here’s CNN openly promoting it saying it’s a good thing.

Remind me which side has spent three and a half years taking Trump's words out of context, to the point of taking two parts of the same sentence clause and pretending they had two different meanings?

In other words, using the left's own standards against them?
Isn't that right out of the playbook? Number 4, specifically?
English subjugation of the rest of the British Isles arises from feudalism and far predates capitalism.
Hong Kong has been Chinese since the Qin dynasty in 214 BCE. It was then taken in the Opium wars (which I don’t think you want to justify) and then returned following the expiration of a lease written in 1898, when the Chinese government had nothing to do with communism.
Look I’m a good American like you ;) who’s just tryna be informed about history and geopolitics and all that. As far as China is concerned I would read up about spheres of influence .
Also Guam and Puerto Rico are more war protectorates than anything. I feel like in this context they’re not comparable to Ireland because it’s not like we’re profiting off them, we just happened to win wars against the people who previously owned them (and who were actually exploiting them). On the other hand, the Acts of Union the English enforced on the Irish were very clearly to expand profits, not help the Irish in any way (would recommend reading A Modest Proposal ).
I am saying something, and you are responding. We are both using a language to communicate. I'm even nice enough to link the dictionary definition, since you clearly don't know. But now you do.
You lose. Again.
You can install Reddit Enhancement Suite, and it has an option to use the old "overview" view of user pages automatically. Super useful nowadays.
Well let me ask you this: if this guy did die, and if nobody in the mainstream media decided to cover it (just like how they have declined to cover everything else that makes the left look back - and only begrudgingly cover things that go viral) then how would I prove it to you? Hypothetically speaking, how would I prove it if the media refuses to report on it?
The reason I believe he died is because people on the ground were talking about it when it happened. More than one person livestreamed it. But I can't find it now - it's been memory-holed.
I did find this video (which I'm shocked has not been taken down yet): https://hooktube.com/watch?v=p3fT6pnhjJA
And there are people in the comments talking about how they too heard the guy had died.
And there's this from the same protest: https://twitter.com/stillgray/status/826995673320927232 - just further highlighting how violent everything was.
Remember how, after the one video of the bike lock guy went viral and 4chan started looking for him, remember how they uncovered two previous times he had attacked people? Remember how no mainstream news covered that at all - not until the video went viral? Is it really so hard to believe that they'd look the other way when a mob of leftists murder a guy? There are plenty of examples of them taking sides like that.
Reminds me of the Steinbeck quote about "temporarily embarrassed capitalists"
>"Except for the field organizers of strikes, who were pretty tough monkeys and devoted, most of the so-called Communists I met were middle-class, middle-aged people playing a game of dreams. I remember a woman in easy circumstances saying to another even more affluent: 'After the revolution even we will have more, won't we, dear?' Then there was another lover of proletarians who used to raise hell with Sunday picknickers on her property.
>"I guess the trouble was that we didn't have any self-admitted proletarians. Everyone was a temporarily embarrassed capitalist. Maybe the Communists so closely questioned by the investigation committees were a danger to America, but the ones I knew—at least they claimed to be Communists—couldn't have disrupted a Sunday-school picnic. Besides they were too busy fighting among themselves."

On the contrary, they're using a very narrow definition to refer almost entirely to economic liberals in the classical sense. The user /u/yeezyforpresident was even so kind to explicitly PM me this fact. If they were using a broad sense, I'd expect criticism of more generally "liberal" topics, just not hot-button economic issues popular with communists and socialists.
In the US, almost no ones uses "liberal" to refer to classically economic liberals. It's a label that's nearly synonymous with the left on both social and fiscal policies. For example, you'll find very few champions of economic liberalism in /r/liberal. That sub's userbase overlaps most with /r/progressive (5.88 percent overlap with 48 common users).
I realize that there's a huge overlap between /r/shitliberalssay and /r/communism (9.23 percent overlap with 47 common users), /r/socialism (6.76 percent overlap with 37 common users) and /r/anarchism (3.31 percent overlap with 19 common users), but I live in the US, and Reddit's audience is overwhelmingly US-based, so it's unreasonable to expect people to use definitions that are mostly used by European-style communists and others who demonize free market economics.
I read this book a few years ago and it covers the history:

This situation made me feel stupid because I trusted the media.
Then I read rational actors like

IDK. I'd be forced to say (from well off the game board after decades of being paid to be ON it) that the extremes on both ends of what is now a concrete-hardened polarity rather than even remotely a spectrum have both played the bait-&-switch game. Both promised a better QoL for their pre-power supporters; both stuck it to their supports once in firm control.
In 2019, Faux Nooze et al has convinced the overheated Right that the reds, yellows, browns, blacks & LGTBQs will reenact the Reign of Terror in France 230 years ago. And MSNBC & CNN have (far more deftly) gotten the more emotional reds, yellows, browns, blacks & LGTBQs to believe that the descendants of the slaveholders want to put them all on the chain gang.

Yeah, all 1700 confirmed sick people due to COVID-19 in the US were standing in the way of Bernie's communist revolution...
The whole post in the linked thread is hilarious to me. It cites a man claiming "climate change will kill 6 billion people by the end of the century". Who is this man? [Roger Hallam](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Hallam_(activist\)), an organic farmer turned climate activist, AKA someone with no credibility. The article seeks to prove his assertion correct, and uses a man named David Spratt, another activist who is "not a climate scientist".
The article, before diving headfirst into proving the assertion of one non-scientist activist with another, cites 2 actually qualified climate scientists who say the assertion that 6 billion people will die by 2100 is complete nonsense. Why would you cite two qualified people saying your claim is insane when all you have backing you are activists with no scientific background?
This is what doomsdayers mean when they talk about "scientific consensus". They aren't talking about the words and research of actual scientists. They're talking about the false interpretations of actual research by non-scientific activists with agendas.
No, no it's not worse. If you're really netsec you're being ignorant of either the situation or intentionally misleading.
So for those of you who need a refresher in memory, here's what Hillary Clinton did. Hillary Clinton, while Secretary of State, Set up a private email server. An unencrypted private email server, in her own home. During this time, she used this private email server to conduct official business as secretary of state. Now secretary of state is kind of a big deal. All sorts of state secrets passed over her desk. So people started asking. In fact, SoS is one of the primary classification sources for classified material. It has been proven, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that classified material passed passed over Hilary Clinton's un-secure server. It was also proven that clinton had her aids wipe the server and destroy associated devices when it became a problem. And during the time it was active, literally any script-kitty on the internet could view US state secrets and erase the log that they'd ever viewed them.

Jared Kushner is a member of white house staff, not the Cabinet. He communicated with foreign diplomats through whatsapp. Now until we know the extent of these messages, we don't know whether he did anything wrong or illegal. If I asked a co-worker over text "Hey, what's the name of that website again?" That wouldn't be illegal or an ethics violation, nor would it be for Kushner. It's really not much different then sending a text message, but is perhaps better because at least this is secure. If he used it for classified information, that's a big problem and he should be punished. Perhaps fine or jail. Unless he forwards relevant correspondence to official channels within 20 days. Then he's fine, assuming none of it was classified.
So hopefully now you can see that you're full of shit.
We're always told that humans are just too selfish to create a fair future but when you look at grand stats it's the total opposite.
The majority of the world is anti-war and people need to be lied to and propagandized into it.
The poorest people (the masses) give the most per capita to charity and community outreach.
It's the rich and the people in charge (the psychopaths who lied, cheated, pushed people under buses, to get where they are) who are the selfish cretins. They need to fool the average person to be as sick as them.
The country is not getting better. It's getting worse.
I recommend this book for a great outline on how twisted all the "humans are awful" stats really are.

Using words like "tacit" and "implicit" denote a philosophical argument. There are philosophical counter arguments (See Michael Huemer: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1137281650/), but that's not the issue here. The issue is the claim of jurisdiction that some people make over others. On what basis do they make this claim, other than coercion?

Are you dense or purposely trolling? Only one using "feels over reals" are the morons saying "undocumented" over ILLEGAL ALIEN, and the morons who think ~~"undocumented" ILLEGAL ALIENS have "legal status". No they don't you bleeding heart Marxist. They're criminal garbage as soon as they ILLEGALLY enter/border hop.

Do you seriously think that someone who border hops and enters he country ILLEGALLY is anything other than an ILLEGAL ALIEN. Words have meaning.

There is a book by a Chris Hogan called Everyday Millionaires which actually studies 10000 millionaires to determine how they build their wealth. Guess what, most of them did not get their money by inheritance.

All of this stuff makes me want to go to Chick-fil-A or Hobby Lobby every time. And I can't stand Chick-fil-A's food. I dunno why people say it's good, but to me it's disgusting.
Still gonna go just because I can. Hobby Lobby is cool though. I own the founder's book.
It's not a simple question. Here's an excellent book on the subject
Long story short there are barriers to marriage. Motherhood is a pathway to fulfillment for people who are deprived of opportunities to upward social mobility.
Racist? Yes, but is it good for the ~~Jews~~ Liberals?
The answer to that question always determines how they view those comments.
Edit: Just in case you all don't know, the question "Yes, but is it good for the Jews?" is a euphemism widely known. So let's just get that out of the way because I can already hear the useful idiots gnashing their teeth and cracking their knuckles preparing to launch another one of their impotent keyboard jihads.
I don't have to explain every single detail of some future system that is inherently impossible to know comprehensively. The burden is on you to explain why the coercive organization called the State, which is actually, currently existent and active, is more moral than the alternatives and should be upheld and/or supported.
You asking me to provide you with every detail of how people will organize to solve specific problems in the future under a hypothetical freedom is like the slavery apologist demanding that the abolitionist explain how the cotton and tobacco will be picked after emancipation. The abolitionist of course does not and cannot know the vast extent of the potentialities that will make cotton and tobacco farming more efficient after emancipation -- such as internal-combustion engine driven tractors and electrical, automated irrigation systems -- but knows that slavery is not an option and that society can and will manage to solve their problems more ethically if they try.
