My guess is it’s an instinct. You haven’t demonstrated any conscious appreciation of why discussion happens, so I’m guessing you just inherited an instinct to discuss things from your ancestors, who were more likely to survive given their predilection to talk

If we could get around the DNC’s stranglehold on itself, Bernie Sanders.

I would have said Tulsi Gabbard but that ship has sailed.

I don’t feel rage when I watch the news, even when I see stories I don’t like.

Have an AI summarize it for you?

Gaza, duh

Pain in the ass?

I guess that’s why they call them singers?

Ethics is more complicated than you think it is.

There is absolutely no reason that the set of rules you learned first would be the actual set of rules that governs people.

As you have learned, being non-aggressive is not sufficient strategy to avoid others’ aggression.

There’s no reason to think it would be, except that it was in kindergarten when large authority giants would easily overpower any aggressor, and would by policy do so on behalf of the nonagressive ones.

Don’t confuse kindergarten rules for global culture. Huge mistake.

Actual culture evolved from nature, and in nature in order to protect yourself you must retaliate when attacked. Every organism has weapons. Every organism.

Meditate on that. Why would every organism use some of its previous energy budget building weapons? Why would evolution select for that 100% of the time?

You’re being thick-skulled.

We are telling you what the problem is. Listen, or continue to have the problem. It’s your choice.

If you define winning as everybody always liking you and nobody ever having a bad opinion of you then yes, you can never win.

The trick is not to define “winning” as some impossible task like everyone always liking you.

So what’s different about this election, that makes you think it was rigged somehow, when all the other ones weren’t?

I was a Democrat too. Your refusal to believe is part of why your party has lost power.

Your blindness only flies in your own echo chambers.

The downvotes I’ll receive only drive the point home that you do not value information you don’t like, and that is your biggest political weakness.

The burden of proof is on one proving MAGA is trying to ban all those things. Can you prove any of them?

Really? Provide evidence for one of the bans mentioned in the OP

Of course you are. Comment saved.

Because Canada tariffs us.

Tariffs are reserved for those who tariff US goods.

It really helps if you pay enough attention to know what’s going on.

DOGE is making recommendations to the office of the President. It’s the President’s authority on which these changes are made. They’re happening in executive branch departments, which are all under Presidential authority.

Kinda like the word “delicacy”, which only ever refers to nasty indigenous food you must pretend to enjoy to avoid offending them.

The polarity of evil has flipped so far that you can’t escape. Now anything good Musk does becomes bad in your view. Musk switches the polarity of the thing, rather than the other way around.

Musk kisses a puppy, you unfortunately must now hate puppies. Such a strong statement.
