  15.  benny pitt  "Do you really want child molesters vote in the elections?" This is really the most stupid and lazy straw-man, as if 100% of prison population is full of child molesters and rapists. The US has the biggest prison population and you have private prisons which have perverse incentive to have as many clients as possible. Prison Industrial complex don't want people to be rehabilitated, they want them to go right back to jail. And then prisoners are forced to word for $0.40/hr which is basically slave labor. And you have Drug War and Tough on crime law that ballooned prison population from about 300k in the 1970s to 2.1 million. The violent crime went down but the prison population went up. Biden already said he is not going to criminalize marijuana that would let so many people leave jail right now. Biden himself wrote crime bill and a lot of black people voted for him in the primary which is mind boggling. Also, did Jefferey Epstein and Gyslaine Maxwell lose their ability to vote? No! They never even went to jail except for the time where they put Epstein in jail where he "committed suicide." Are you going use this example for your stupid straw-man argument? Probably not. You have the stupidest laws where a woman was sentenced for 20 years for firing a warning shot and Florida where you have stand your ground laws. Does this woman not deserve to vote? No, she absolutely should have a right to vote, she should not even be in jail in the first place. Should George Zimmerman have a right to vote? He can vote - he never even went to jail even though he killed somebody becasue of Florida that has the stupid stand your ground law. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-florida-shooting-alexander/florida-releases-woman-jailed-for-20-years-for-firing-warning-shot-idUSBRE9AR0MK20131128

  18. ​ @owen5640 ​If you really want to understand why the US is ratcheting Cold War 2.0 against Russia and China you need to read these 3 articles. Everything else is just noise. Pentagon Study Declares American Empire Is ‘Collapsing’ https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/pentagon-study-declares-american-empire-is-collapsing The End of Empire https://www.truthdig.com/articles/the-end-of-empire/ Goodbye to the Dollar https://www.truthdig.com/articles/goodbye-to-the-dollar/ Pay attention to this paragraph here. "For the majority of Americans, the 2020s will likely be remembered as a demoralizing decade of rising prices, stagnant wages, and fading international competitiveness. After years of swelling deficits fed by incessant warfare in distant lands, in 2030 the U.S. dollar eventually loses its special status as the world’s dominant reserve currency. Suddenly, there are punitive price increases for American imports ranging from clothing to computers. And the costs for all overseas activity surges as well, making travel for both tourists and troops prohibitive. Unable to pay for swelling deficits by selling now-devalued Treasury notes abroad, Washington is finally forced to slash its bloated military budget. Under pressure at home and abroad, its forces begin to pull back from hundreds of overseas bases to a continental perimeter. Such a desperate move, however, comes too late. Faced with a fading superpower incapable of paying its bills, China, India, Iran, Russia, and other powers provocatively challenge U.S. dominion over the oceans, space, and cyberspace." In layman's terms what that means is that right now the US dollar is the reserve currency of the world. 80% of world assets is in US dollars that's why Fed can print trillions of dollars out of thin air and they have other countries by their balls but it's coming to an end. All the countries in the world are sick and tired of US having a their foot on their throat and they are dropping the US dollar which means that US dollar by 2030 will be monopoly money and after that the US will collapse like a house of cards. This is not my opinion - it's opinion of Pentagon and other people who I trust like Chris Hedges who never lied.

  29.  @owen5640  China's a horrible place to live? WTF did you live during George Floyd protests? So BLM got it all wrong: there's no racism, class divide and cops don't shoot 1k unarmed black people and never got prosecuted, right? So WTF are all these millions of white people get upset and get brutalized during BLM protest over nothing? If protests and riots like that happened in Venezuela, Iran or Syria, all MSM would have been playing that on a loop 24/7 and neocons and nelibs from both parties would be calling to give these people some "freedom." Obama gave Libya so much "freedom" - they have slave markets there and the country turned into Jihadistan which is a separate story. What happened to people who live in Flint, MI, they haven't had clean water for the last 5 years? 6 years? And there are a lot of places like Flint. Obama went there to sip a class of water and left them hanging without fixing the problem and Trump couldn't give a bigger F about black people or people in Puerto Rico either. Dems and GOP voted on Space Force which cost about $20 billion. WTF is Space Force for? To fight Martians? They have no money to fix Flint, MI but they always have money for Military Industrial Complex and to bomb brown people in the Middle East. So China is communist but the US is a democracy? 60% of Americans want universal health care system/Medicare For All/ Single Payer. Even plurality of Republicans want it and those were the number BEFORE covid. And Biden said that even if Medicare For All bill would land on his desk he would veto it. 80% of Democrats want Medicare For all and Biden tell them to FO. Is that a democracy? No, plutocrats decided that single payer would cost them a lot of money and they don't want to spend it on the plebs and there you go. What people want is irrelevant - the only thing that really matters is what the ruling class wants. All progressive policies like $15/hr min wage, green new deal, universal job guarantee are super popular now and you won't get them because the very rich people who rule the US don't want that. But the biggest problems for you is that kids who have student debt love their avocado toast too much. If only they ate less avocado toasts their student debt would have been resolved and they could afford to buy houses no problem.
