[W:583, 2190] Political Compass Thread

[EnchantedMuggle]

It is well known that Harris backed the defund police movement and help raise money to bail violent rioters.

Nope.

You do understand that it is reality right?

Nope. She was attempting to help the majority of the staggering 17,000 people pepper sprayed and just dragged en masse to jail -- no matter what they were standing there doing; just scoop 'em all up -- to pay bail.

Which didn't absolve the actually guilty of anything. Those accused of actual crimes, or even misdemeanors, were still charged. They still had to come back...you do understand that's the reality, right?

The only fantasy involves you actually debating.

I'm not so sure, you've just indulged in a few right here.

Maybe you are actually that ignorant of this issue.

Nope.

So which is it, are you lying or ignorant of the issue?

Neither. Are you attacking to get a reaction or just trying to deflect?

 

[EnchantedMuggle]

You spend some time researching. Maybe you will learn just how wrong you are. I’m not wasting time on you. I have already provided links that expose many lies and other discrepancies in police reports and testimony. I pointed out the lies from the left including the Jan6th committee. I showed the uneven punishment. Enough is enough. You don’t care about anything except getting Trump. That’s TDS bud.

So, no. You have zero support for the yarn you've just spun.

Okay, thanks for that, anyway.

 

[Pyrite]

I’m in a thread about Trump pardoning the Jan 6th rioters. Even the violent cop beating ones. I was told that I should be banned from DP for supporting Trumps decision. I was called all manner of bad things for this stance.

So it made me scratch my head and wonder something. Why am I deserving of being banned? Why am I an asshole cop hater? Why am I all these awful things that these leftists are saying yet they are wonderful Americans who love and care for our wonderful law enforcement hero’s?

These leftists all supported Harris. Harris supported the defund police movement. Why would they support a candidate who wanted to defund police if they love police? Harris helped raise money to bail out violent cop beating rioters. Why would they support Harris after she helped people who viciously attacked police even with explosives? One of those she helped bail out killed a man weeks later.

So I’m here to expose these leftists for the virtue signaling hypocrites that they are.

It seems to me that those who support trump's pardoning the violent thugs who attacked and wounded at least 140 police officers - in the space of a day - are not at all those who "support the blue".

Wouldn't you agree?

 

[Pyrite]

I look forward to the Speakers new House Investgation

Please drag it all up again!

It won't change the facts

Show those videos of trump's violent thugs' attacking and wounding police personnel. MAGA needs to look this time - to take a good, long look-see at what trump instigated and prolonged.

MAGA needs to figure out why it doesn't "support the blue".

Imagine if you will...

I world in which the government posts speed limits on the highway...

Then fires all the State Police charged with enforcing the speed limits on the highway...

WW

State police are charged with far more than just enforcing speed limits.
A much simpler tax code would not only be much easier to enforce but also result in more revenue to be spent productively, if any government spending is productive.

 

[Mycroft]

I'm just thinking out loud here: (MAGAs note I am asking a question so don't bomb me with trolling accusations)

IS IT POSSIBLE that Trump is threatening tariffs on Canada for bullshit reasons like fentanyl because he knows that Canada will retaliate by cutting off all oil and energy to the US, thus giving Trump an excuse to say Canada is committing an act of war, similar to what the Japanese said when Roosevelt cut off oil to Japan prior to Japan bombing Pearl Harbor? By accusing Canada of committing an act of war on the US Trump could then invent an excuse for invading Canada which he could very easily sell to the brainless American people, super-bullshitter that Trump is. Conditions for cessation of hostilities would be Canada agreeing to be annexed as the 51st state.

Possible?

No.

"It's well known" doesn't count as corroboration of claims.

LOL! @Daddyo tells another poster to do the work of trying to confirm his claims.

Says all I need to know about the reliability, trustworthiness, and credibility of @Daddyo.

“ A Texas substitute teacher has come under fire after inviting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers raid his school because his students “don’t even speak English.”

Fort Worth Independent School District officials launched an investigation after the substitute teacher responded to a post by ICE on social media giving an update on arrests for Jan. 23.

The teacher, who was not publicly identified but had the X username @Hookem232, called for agents to “come to Fort Worth, TX to Northside High School,” according to the Dallas Morning News.

“I have many students who don’t even speak English and they are in 10th-11th grade. They have to communicate through their iPhone translator with me. The [U.S. Department of Education] should totally overhaul our school system in Texas too,” the post added.

Two-thirds of Fort Worth public school students are Hispanic and more than one in three students is learning English as a second language.

Meanwhile, officials have not named the substitute teacher who made the post, but said the instructor will not be teaching while the posts are investigated.

Snitches in schools. Trump and Homan must be very proud.

I think a better use of his time would be a call to the Department of Education to discuss the quality of high school educations in Texas.

My first language was German even though I was born in the U.S. It's a long story.

Born in the US and just spoke German? Sounds like a bit of an Enigma.

At a guess, I would assume that someone is upset and that is why they said you ought to be banned.
But without knowing the full context, I can't say for sure.

At a guess, I would say they called you an asshole cop hater for supporting Trump in his decision to pardon all the J6 insurrection/coup attempt participants. Perhaps especially the ones who beat up and injured or killed cops on 2021.01.06
But without knowing the full context, I can't say for sure.

As for the rest of your post, could you provide some information and proof of what you are saying?

Great idea, I would eliminate ALL deductions and simply tax gross income.
Some years back I downloaded Mitt Romney's 2010 tax return.
What a nightmare, 203 pages.
A gross income of $21,661,344 with a tax bill of $3,009,766 a tax rate of 13.89%.
My gross income was 0.8% of his gross income and my tax rate was 20%.
My tax return was but 3 pages.

 

[Tangmo]

I'm sorry. Are you under the impression that the Pentagon is a fourth branch of the government?

Your presumptive question that suggests wrongdoing is fallacious.

There is nothing in my posts that suggests any more than MagaMericans being joined with their Generalissimo for his oft stated passion to establish a single unitary government under Your Generalissimo's dictatorship.

Which brings us to the Generalissimo's Homan who is a loudmouth flatfoot from NYC focused against the Pentagon in his own drive to become a transportation magnate of military planes. This will not fly so to speak given the Pentagon has refused already to do the deportation Gestapo work of Trump-Homan-MAGAs.

Trump-Homan's entire mass deportation scheme was from the start predicated on the military executing it for free for ICE. Now that the Pentagon has asserted decisively it will not do the deportations, the Generalissimo and the Flatfoot are stuck with finding $86 billion bucks they thought they had escaped having to get from the most unwilling and tightwad Republican Congress.

All of this and as we saw last year is because a viable immigration bill is Trump's kryptonite. MAGA's too of course.

 

[VySky]

There is simply no reason for Trump to do this....except to be a racist asshole.

But that's why you like him.

Eliminating DEI is not racist.

They are targeting children, VySky. Kids. Is that ok?

They are targeting illegal parents.

You're twisting my post around to mean something it doesn't mean at all, just like your buddy RPM or JPG or whatever the hell his name is. Nobody said anything about unqualified people entering other countries. All countries have strict emigrant regulations that anyone entering has to qualify for, chief among them no criminal record, no contagious illnesses and above all the ability to support yourself. You make it sound like any disease-riddled broken down homeless person can fill out a ticket and have an instant visa to another country and that's not the case at all. My post--and you and that screwball buddy of yours know this already so I have no f*cking idea why you're forcing me to repeat it--is aimed at young fully qualified people trying to establish a career in this loser country without any hope of succeeding because of our sh*thead President, Donald Trump--these young people should use the opportunity of immigration to find a better life than they are ever going to find over here living hand-to-mouth--just like millions of Europeans did by coming to America in the late 19th-early 20th centuries. This country is headed off a cliff, you just haven't recognized this fact yet and the best hope for many of them is looking overseas for something more stable than working 3-4 jobs over here to pay sky-high rents, insurance, food and everything else. Jesus f*cking Christ--no brains, no headaches.

A lot of your gripes can be fixed by a government with sound policy. You think this is the first time the US has had hardship? The oil crisis in the 1970s also hit the economy hard.

We have abundant times and lean times. This is a lean time. Telling people that they have to leave to have any chance at all at succeeding for the rest of their lives is absolutely terrible advice, based on jaded, cynical hopelessness. Give up and run away if you want.

Every time the country goes through hard times, people either claim our civilization is on the brink of collapse or that we should flee to save ourselves. Neither is necessary.

And there are a lot of young people succeeding in our country, today, who weren't born with a silver spoon. Your post is weirdly ageist and cynical, as if it's "all over" for young folks. What a shitty sentiment to preach to the younger generation. You're no elder that I would want around my children.

Please list some reference to the Pentagon stating they will not deport illegal aliens.

The thing is... If you are saying that Hamas is the resistance... they are not a resistance that is working for the good of Gazans.

They are a resistance that is working for the good of themselves.

You seem to have a very ideological view not based in reality. There is some truth to your comment, but it's a small bit.

If Hamas is 'only out for its own benefit', it's not going well as their leaders were murdered in the last year, knowingly taking big risks for the resistance.

Do liberals really think heavy handed DEI-down-the-throat courses are the best way to endear black and female military members?

Speaking as the black son of a US Marine, I can tell you HELL YES.

All the pearl clutching can cease now.

Update (10:26pm ET): “Just after 10pm ET, and just under 10 hours after Trump lobbed the first shot in the first trade war of his second admin, the White House announced that Colombia had agreed to all of Trump's terms, "including the unrestricted acceptance of all illegal aliens from Colombia returned from the United States, including on U.S. military aircraft, without limitation or dela”

Sorry, don't buy this. Democrats have a better chance of winning with a moderate, more centrist candidate.

You are convinced of that. Lots suggest you are wrong. That's putting aside how pointless it is to 'win' with a Republican-lite.

Although it would be fine with me if a Progressive won, I don't think one can (in 4 years). I agree to some extent that both parties are oligarchs-lite. But, putting up a losing Progressive doesn't help that.

Republicans aren't 'lite'. Look at the inauguration stage with trump backed by a row of his billionaires. Look at the $50 trillion the redistributed to the billionaires. Moderates are as mentally fixated about Progressives not winning as MAGA is about trump. You just ignored the points in my post to repeat your dfogma.

 

[Craig234]

Trump didn’t ignore the constitution. His EO was tested in one court and struck down…as many other laws have for years. Trump would be ignoring the constitution if he went ahead with his EO as Biden did when he ignored the ruling of the USSC.

That would be ignoring the constitution.

Wrong. trump ignored the constitution by issuing an order that ignores and violates the constitution. That others react to his doing so doesn't change that.

Your argument is like saying if you walk up to a cop and punch him and are arrested, you didn't break the law because you were arrested, you'd break the law if you punched him and got away without being arrested.

^ Based on this agreement, the White House notes, the hastily drafted tariffs and sanctions "will be held in reserve, and not signed, unless Colombia fails to honor this agreement." The visa sanctions issued by the State Department, and enhanced inspections from Customs and Border Protection, will remain in effect until the first planeload of Colombian deportees is successfully returned.

 

[Craig234]

It’s racist to notice somebody doesn’t speak English? Is it racist if somebody notices I don’t speak Chinese?

Don't put words in my mouth. And you also posted a dishonest straw man.
