I don't think people are celebrating because of who he was, but because of what he represents to them.

You are the one claiming that my multiple examples don't counter his one example.

All of the numbers suggest otherwise, but don't let that get in the way of what you believe in your heart.

I guess we will see.

Is that how you always dismiss questions you can't answer? Who is the ignorant troll? Life expectancy is currently about ten years longer than it was in the eighties. Your turn. Prove me wrong instead of projecting?

My 15 year old makes 16 per hour working fast food. I made 5.25 at his age in the 90s.

How about minority rights, accessibility to health care, environmental protections, women's pay gap and career opportunity in general, black president, woman vice president, safety laws, life expectancy.

Lots of down votes, but no actual responses.

What things have been getting worse?

Yeah i suppose it is technically authoritarian, but society is overwhelmingly ok with it since it is indisputably a good idea. Covid restrictions did not have universal agreement, weren't as obviously effective and common sense, were unconstitutional in some cases, but most of all too new to have trust from everyone, particularly when messaging was inconsistent or logically flawed.

Yeah but I was talking about covid restrictions in general. Maybe that's where the confusion came.

Public masking and vaccine mandates didn't stop until September 2022.

Every article i can find discusses New Zealand having the longest-running and toughest covid restrictions in the world, pretty far from normal life. I remember them briefly easing restrictions in 2020, and it was widely celebrated as some kind of victory over covid, but it was short lived, and restrictions and mandates came right back stronger than ever.

Everyone wants to talk about fascism these days, but give covid restrictions a complete pass. I've never seen anything like that in my lifetime, where you actually couldn't go to restaurants without a pass, and had to have papers in order to justify being out in public. Even if you think it was justified, you have to acknowledge that it was extreme authoritarianism.

Are you saying that New Zealand returned to normal before the rest of the world? Because that's not how I remember it at all.

Wait, are you implying that Trump is similar to Hitler?

Isn't that a picture of kamala?

And yet these people want to blame it for the election loss. I think "the manosphere" has more impact on them as an easy scapegoat then it does on general voters in effecting elections.

Ok, but how many or what percentage of men like this need to exist for it to be a talking point? If it's not generalized to a significant percentage, then it's not a valid point to bring up in the first place.

I bet the party has sufficient power to restrict access to birth control. Seems crazy to consider, but if things got serious enough, I feel like they are capable of doing it.
