"Out of the 30 states Trump carried in 2024, 25 of them are more reliant on SNAP than the national average"
For whatever reason, Democrats in red states seem to be more poor than Democrats in blue states, but overall the general population does better in a red state
Setting aside the blatant lie the right keeps repeating about the American left being communists… the constant labeling, fixation, and demonization of democrats as socialists never ceases to amaze me.
They are quite obviously coming out as them now. The word "progressive" was in group signalling when it was harder to admit being a Marxist in the 60s but nearly every current Democrat openly calls themselves progressive. Other than that, we can look at the policies to see if they align with documented Marxist plans to do things like harm the nuclear family unit etc.
You guys don’t even know what these words mean. A “democratic socialist” is someone who believes government has a large role to play in fighting back against the excesses which capitalism naturally produces. That’s not anti-capitalist, it works with capitalism
Marketing speak. We know where it leads. Even then working with capitalism undermines it. It is far better to be completely socialist or completely capitalist (free market). You can't have a system work if it is logically inconsistent. It's far better to actually live in a communist hellhole than live in some place where logical inconsistencies exist.
the only examples we’ve seen in that in recent years is under the current president where he has I believe twice now had the federal government take a stake in large companies as part of his deal making.
It aligns with fascism, the right has been backed into a corner where we have to choose between fascism or turn the country into California were the cops can't arrest thieves if they steal less than $200, where crime is high due to immigration, where pedophilia has essentially been legalized and where parents will get arrested for not affirming their male child is a girl.
We can look at the worst policies of England and their attacks on free speech to see what else liberals have in store.
Why are you a liberal anyway is your only argument "gee I don't like the personality of trump because he mentioned having secure borders and criticized NAFTA in a way that sounds jingoistic"
Mamdani is a Muslim elected after 9/11. Kinda sick, but other than that what do you think his policies of a $30 an hour minimum wage and free childcare for everyone effect NYC?
At some point I would like to see an option to just openly debate an AI here, but AI should be encouraged as long as the other person's arguments are being engaged with
It’s definitely a universal thing, very few people are actually principled believers in free speech. We’re extremely lucky the founders were wise enough to write it down
It's silly to be principles about it. It's like people principled about non violence. How many times do you have to be punched in the face before you put that tool in your tool box.
I think the sensible thing is to occasionally have a dictator who comes in and kicks the teeth in on people who don't play fair and maybe allow this for a while before returning to normal and liberals will take advantage of the normalcy to do crazy evil things again and then you grant a temporary dictator to deal with their evil and return to freedom again.
The right is canceling people for supporting murder and the left for edgy takes from. 15 years ago so it's both cancel culture but it's not exactly equal
Logging into my old minecraft world and seeing my dog patiently watiing made my eyes water just a bit
Your a dick for abandoning him
Metal gear solid
As previously mentioned, we are giving serious thought to taking away Rosie O’Donnell’s Citizenship. She is not a Great American and is, in my opinion, incapable of being so
Besides the fact that after how the government was weaponized against trump he should get a free pass, this is quite obviously a joke
A materialistic model of the world doesn't allow for free will but a theistic one can allow for it
The rule is for the maximum age not the minimum. You should not date anyone older than 28
When you weaponized government you open that door. So no we don't have to keep taking punches and never punch back. Maybe after this term if you guys can promise to stop being evil than we can stop using your own tactics against you
LOL, as I already said, I just forgot gender identity and sexual orientation were considered evidence of being on the left.
His family describes him as leftist and he wrote leftist messaging on the bullet shells. Also watch this video of another typical leftist. https://youtube.com/shorts/T51fBHp9ZSU?si=A3LXrXTfYnP9_X0j
Nothing wrong with HP . I mean well from what should be your vantage point. You are probably the issue. It's just struggling to connect to wifi? Can you use a cable to attach it?
Is it the same problem with all of the HPs or a new problem with each one?
I think it just comes from the realization that open borders policies harm the country and that murdering babies is unethical. So both are really about harm avoidance
Everyone knows you are supposed to kill Hitler so yes the media and leftwing politicians continually calling center of the road Republicans like Kirk Hitler is an attempt to get whack jobs to do stupid shit. It's called stochastic terrorism and the left are masters at it. There is no equivalent on the right of this celebration of death.
