Being trapped in a social situation where the group has implicitly agreed to sit down and watch broadcast TV and talk about all the commercials like they were relevant topics to us.

Has always been one of my least favorite quotes. For reasons already stated by others here.

I don't think anyone is saying criticism/scepticism is bad in any way. I also don't think most are just blindly taking what a politician/government says as fact.

I take these actions with a grain of salt just like most and assume nothing Biden or the government does is altruistic. I also have a hard time believing it's all of nefarious intentions.

Yeah but the pious get to feel important

I guess I'm confused where the Fox News 'I stand with Israel" flag outside their house crowd me marry that with Holocaust denial?

I mean I know how they do it, without thinking, but I just want to be in the room when that question is popped.

No. That's a food fight with children.

No debate unless trump agrees to mic cut off after turns

Being one-note hyperbolic just makes people disregard what you say. You don't think people wanting to avoid full fledged fascism might unite even the polarized?

Yup and has my support.

Is the video real. Yes. Is there an "Oof" involved? None that I saw.

Is he pausing to wait for the cue to start the questions? All the comments suggest he is not in charge because of his banter. Whoever supposes leadership is dictating commands all the time and not listening to staff/advisors is delirious.

There is zero context here. Extrapolating that he's having a McConnell style moment is an incredibly bold statement.

It seems like a classic political triangulation. On one end he's shown to allies of the US that they will stand with their partners (soft power). In this case it involves participating in genocide. The pivot comes when said ally shows that their intentions are not in line with what the global community considers defendable. Then both sides are covered. It's slimy and immoral but I don't think people consider how important soft power is on a state level.

Yep he's been the enemy of his people and a serious liability for all their allies for a long time.

You really need to research that word. Fascist is not a synonym for someone who makes unconscionable decisions or someone who does something that is unpopular.

Now poll the inverse. "Which candidate do you think will burn this bitch to the ground fastest?"

To be fair Democrats never called rural people deplorables or racists. That was attributed to Trump's bedfellows. Rural America just bought that it was aimed towards them wholesale.

I am not a crook!

I'd rather waste my money on a car from a maker with vision. This is in line with their move to TX. Too bad.

A-1 Quality judge up there in NY.

That's one of the most malicious websites I've been to in a long time.

I agree most of these verge on dad jokes at best and maybe go on way too long. I will say l genuinely enjoy to see the camaraderie and spike in participation.
