I enjoyed reading your response and appreciate what you had to say. You are a needed breath of fresh air amongst many who have turned into stale cookies. I don’t want to jumble up Skuj’s thread with discussion that belongs in the Trum thread......hope to see you over there, Derek.

It's the opposite of sticking your head in the sand actually, Bytor.
And I'm not a fan of the democrats either so no, it's not democrats vs. republicans. Trump is continuing a lot of war crime foreign policy that Obama had no issue with. Trump is just a symptom of an overbloated diseased capitalist system that needs to be dismantled and it pisses me off that democrats pretend like Mueller will save them and get rid of their bad orange man problem instead of working to change the fundamentals of a broken system. Wouldn't be surprised if they ran a run of the mill liberal in 2020 just to get things back to normal. They don't want socialists or Marxists to take over their party, that's fer sure.
The most left-wing candidate you guys have is Bernie and he's a social democrat, which really shows how far the overton window has shifted to the right in Amerikkka. I don't mind debating liberals because they can be convinced that we share some common end goals but what good can come from debating someone who has bought into Trump and the Republican party? It's either brainwashing or bad faith engagement with ideas that don't work, have never worked and will NEVER work. Oh I'm sorry, was your tax cut really good this year or something? That's worth the fear and pain that marginalised people are going through in the modern world, I'm sure. |
