Ah, the first purely ad hominem. I love it. It confirms that many here have nothing intelligent/important to add.

Ew. Lol. 1 liner king over here. Your profile confirms that you have nothing intelligent or otherwise important to add to anything. You're just noise.

Lol it is funny isn't it.

Thanks, crazy you're still getting downvoted. I guess you weren't extreme enough.

Lol. Sounds like you've already ingested too much propaganda. You're parroting it perfectly. You've mixed stupid personal opinion with the main stream medias rhetoric.

Concepts of a plan? Eating pets?

Go look up the definition of "concept." Having a concept of a plan like nearly like saying, "I have a plan of a plan." Which would be redundant. Saying, "I have a concept of a plan," is like basically saying, "I have a plan." There is nothing weird or wrong about the phrase, "i have a concept of a plan." This is English anyway, always flexible. You parroting those talking points indicates to me you are probably incapable of an independent discerning perspective.

Lol. Why do you think that?

First, im no trumpster, i dont like the guy. The MM is really pulling out all the stops on spinning this one. Trump did just fine, Republicans think he did just fine, and some even consider it a win. It's crazy how strong the MM is pushing it a major Harris win and that Trump did very badly, and that even Republicans think he lost, the headline "Republicans dismayed" is just bullshit, I know a lot of Republicans, and none have claimed to be "dismayed". That's the spin. I know everyone here thinks it was a big Harris win and no one denies it, so I'm just here to tell inform yall that those of us who live in reality don't consider it a big win for Harris or that Trump did badly. All the big news stations are helping to push that narrative of a MAJOR Harris win. As always, MSNBC, USAtoday, CNN, NBC, NYtimes, Washington Post etc. I know most of yall trust these news outlets and don't think they have bias, but they most certainly do.

Kamala pissed me off with all the stupid faces she was making, she also just sounded like a whinny B---- several times. My personal opinion is that it was more like a tie than anything, Harris had no content to what she said. But Trump did let her get under his skin. They both lied... and quite a bit.

Anyway, I know where I am, I know the responses I'm going to get in this liberal echo chamber. So come on.

Love it! Thank you for that. I have been corrected and concede. I mean damn, that was well-informed.

... what?

"The great chorus of democracy"....

Sorry if it just seems like im shitting on opinions, but like this, it's just bad... this "great chorus of democracy" is called an echo chamber. It is a chorus. Everyone is reaffirming each other's opinions with no one able to say contrary without ridicule and insults. No one with opposing views wants to be here because of this. Thus, it turns into an echo chamber.

I don't think most here get out into the real world much because people here think the opinions shared here are shared by everybody... but no, the reinforced opinions here are not litmus test of reality.

I'm sure everyone will have a lot of time to indulge your certainly well-informed and nuanced political opinions.

I'm not inclined to take you up on that offer as it seems very disingenuous. I'm not going to express my political opinions so you and your crew can team up and harass me. I'll give you this, our options for POTUS are pitiful. It nearly makes me sick, considering either as our next president. Having said that, Harris is a weak puppet. Biden was senile puppet. Between the 2 options, it sucks but I think Trump is the better choice. He isn't going to end democracy or destroy America like dissenting voice claim. He'll be in office for 4 years and then be gone. Thank God. Many Conservatives have shamed and disgraced the party by turning into the trump party.

Having said that, everything is going to be fine. With either candidate, there will be ups and down, but we're going survive. America will be fine. Every needs to chill out, we need to quit with all the division and hate, that's what they try to do, they try to divide us. It's hard not to fall into it, I'm a victim of it myself. Anyway, I didn't mean to rant. Let me just say that echo chambers are real and very bad. Like it or not, lemme is an echo chamber, reddit is an echo chamber. The dangerous part is not to understand that one is in an echo chamber. I believe most here don't realize that they are in an echo chamber. Its unhealthy... anyway.. geez. Sorry

The delusions don't stop...

Major update: politician acts like a politician.

Well, I'm not sure cameo appearances qualify "movie star."

And maybe they wouldn't be that insightful. Either way, it's a silly notion. We certainly should put weight in the political opinions of pop stars. Queen Latifahs endorsement of Biden is what swayed my vote.

Edit: So... Everyone agrees pop stars political opinions are important? It's ok that Queen Latifahs swayed my vote?

Lol. Hmmm ok

I bet they'd also say if a pop star is influential on your political opinions, you're a damn moron.

Thank you, same. Yeah, I agree that continuing would probably not produce much and would be tiring for us both. Well, I don't think I consider the war in Ukraine UNimportant, but maybe rather that our extreme involvement is just that, maybe too extreme. What really gets me is when I hear about other 3rd parties leaching off the support we are supposed to be sending to Ukraine. These are people stoking the flames getting people riled about our need to support Ukraine, but their only real agenda is benefiting themselves and constituents by siphoning of funds. That's just one aspect...

Socially, so many folks around here have such polarized opinions, and it's crazy to me. Some of these are the same folks who didn't even realize Ukraine and Russia shared a border a few years ago, but now they act like they are professors of the geopolitics of Eastern Europe. Anyway, let me not rant anymore...

Thank you for coming at me straight, brother.

Lol. Good one.

Uhg, gross... your attitude (and opinions) is ignorant and contemptible. I'm guessing you're probably a teenager.

Uhg... I can't respond to such a long rant, but here's some things.

First, you're pretty right about my original comment. It was pretty inflammatory. I regret coming off that way and definitely could have written with more tact. Honestly, I wasn't wrong, though. 80% of the responses have been ignorant, insulting personal attacks. Yours now included.

Sigh... ok. You're mostly wrong because you're making assumptions, generalizing, misquoting, and putting words in my mouth.

You've been disrespecting people from the jump, saying only like 4 people will be able to understand you.

Not what I said or implied. I said 2 or 3 would be better informed, not "would be able to understand me." And big difference.

You reject the idea that you might be wrong and that other people might have a point.

I do? What assumption did you make to come to that conclusion? Especially after I had just said some would be better informed than I?

You simply dismiss and attack people who disagree with you.

I did? Can you give me an example of how I did that?

You've had chances to prove your point and didn't, at all, you just attacked people.

Which point did I have a "chance to prove" but rather just attacked?

and their people raped and murdered, well, it seems like you don't have any morals.

You're just putting words in my mouth here, I didn't imply that. Very few people "don't care" about rape and murder, and to try to paint me as such a person is ignorant, disingenuous, and shows your agenda to try to color me in as a "bad guy" or "sociopath".

Saying you don't care if they win it's some cold shit.

No, it's not. That's only your opinion and based on this characature you're trying to turn me into.

when you enter the conversation saying people won't be able (to understand) you because they don't get it

Didn't say that, or imply that.

You called people who might disagree with you "parrots" and "drones" and here you are talking about disrespect?

I didnt say that those who disagree with me were "parrots" or "drones." Rather, just stated that is what people would mostly do here.

you are did come out of the gate attacking anyone who might disagree with you.

No, it was an attack on the ignorant with terrible opinions. And as proof, everyone here that came politely and respectful, I also treated the same. I have welcomed opposing opinions when stated politely.

In summation, I'm not your damn straw man. You trying to paint me as some characature at best is probably a fault of reading comprehension. At worst, it's intentional and purposeful to use such poor tactics to try to improve your argument. I've never claimed any victimhood. I claimed I've been personally attacked, which is true.

It's hilarious when they say this. "Sending money over there" is a literal catchphrase for Trumpers.

Say what? How is that even a catchphrase? I don't recall hearing anyone ever say that "catchphrase." Who told you "sending money over there" is somehow a protrump catchphrase?

Lemme help you. You are generalizing stereotypes, never a smart thing to do. I do agree about this:

no politician should have a fanbase

I'm certainly no trumpster, and personally hate how he has turned the conservative party into the "trump party." I have some conservative leaning views as well as some more liberal views.

Don't be so ready to classify people and turn it into a "us vs them" issue. We should try not to stoke the flames of division, there is more than enough of that.
