  1.  @InfoForYou8  I don't have the passion for your topic that you do. I'm more interested in giving peace a chance, protecting the environment, providing health care, getting money out of politics, criminal justice reform... I guess if you force me to pick a side I'm on yours. But it's just not very important to me in all honesty. Sorry. But good luck. I admire the passion and encourage you to go where it takes you.

  2.  @InfoForYou8  "I encourage you to check them out" Maybe another time. You wouldn't think that nuclear war should actually be a possibility but sadly I don't rule it out with the psychos controlling things. Raincheck.

  3.  @InfoForYou8  "IP laws are the main cause" Nah. Money and greed are the main cause of all the problems IMO. And money in politics is the problem that makes all the other problems seemingly impossible to solve, including yours.

  4.  @anomanderrake96  "attention span lasts for a month." That seems like a really long time. I thought a person's "attention span" was measured in minutes.

  5.  @anomanderrake96  I looked it up and it actually said 8 seconds is the norm. We were both giving americans attention span far too much credit.

  9.  @Fokadas  "waste time on light hearted crap" If you don't get some "light hearted crap" you are going to turn into a real arce no one will want to be around or talk to. "These two idiots." Maybe go away if that's how you feel. You don't need to be here.

  10. MAGA and blue MAGA are both cults.

  11.  @krackerr  "Marianne seems genuine at least" Then at best she is too naive to run in a corrupt party. At worst she is just another lying politician trying to dupe you for your money and vote. "doesn't awnser my question." Yeah. I'm trying to do you a favor and steer you away from a corrupt party and person while you seek for bad reasons and ways to try and stay in it. "The public need to pull some France style protests and make some changes." Yeah. And we shouldn't be wasting time and energy working to change a corrupt party. Maybe spend that energy on a new party or ANYTHING else.

  14. "Every reasonable person knows" Sadly they do not. Even "reasonable people" can be propagandized. That's why they do it.

  15.  @laurenbrillante89  I have family member who buy the BS. They are reasonable under normal circumstances. But they are brainwashed.

  17.  @chrispeck308  "capitalism" Cares about money and nothing else. "would be exponentially dwarfed..." I propose housing is treated as human right not that you care. Money ruins everything and capitalism is trash.
    1
  18.  @chrispeck308  "All they need is housing." That is not what I said. That is but one example for an economic model known as socialism. I suspect if you had something to say about the things I've actually said you would have gone with that rather your "sophisticated" strawman argument. "Have you ever spent any time with the down trodden?" Yes. "Their problems are way deeper than housing" True. They are living in a sick society that has been corrupted from top to bottom by money and it's influence. They live with a for profit health care system that cares only cares about making money and would actually prefer to have an unhealthy society to make money from them rather than very healthy unprofitable people. "it's beyond laughable to think that's the solution" I'm not going to lie this is hilarious from a big fan of capitalism such as yourself. "Do you think offering a completely useless ideological diagnosis of the problem" I'm confident it's better than shilling for capitalism like you are. "followed by an obviously ignorant solution, suggests that you somehow care about those at the bottom?" Yeah. For one I acknowledge their suffering under the current capitalistic system and seek to change it while you are here advocating for the status quo and attacking people wanting real systemic change. "Or do you just take any opportunity you have to whine about capitalism?" Acknowledging your problems is halfway towards defeating them. You are suffering from what's known as dunning-kruger.

  19.  @chrispeck308  "you said nothing about socialism" It's literally an example of socialism. It's literally an alternative to capitalism. "I fail to see how my response wasn't to what you said." Even after I took the time to explain? Sadly that seems plausible.
    1
  20.  @chrispeck308  You: "I'm sure however many beggars are theoretically produced by capitalism, would be exponentially dwarfed by whatever hair brained idea youd come up with to replace it." ""defending the status quo" an honest representation of what I said?" Really? FYI capitalism is the status quo. I shouldn't have to explain this. "I don't think I'm the one overestimating my intelligence" I know I can be condescending but at least I don't lie about it like you are. Lastly... stop editing your comment to add large amounts of things repeatedly like you are. If you want to add something then you should be responding again.

  21.  @chrispeck308  "keep reaching bud." Keep advocating for the status quo while lying about it. I know you will. "radical change will do what you claim," Imagine thinking that treating things like housing and health care as a human right wouldn't improve the lives of the peasants like you are. How deeply unserious you must be. "isn't the same as defending capitalism," You are defending capitalism. And you are doing it in a world where there is a homeless epidemic in the richest nation in the history of the world. You can advocate for change like I am or you can advocate for the status quo like you are. But I wish that you could at least be honest about it. You can't even do that.

  22.  @chrispeck308  "isn't the same as defending capitalism," Imagine acting like "I'm sure however many beggars are theoretically produced by capitalism, would be exponentially dwarfed by whatever hair brained idea youd come up with to replace it." isn't defending capitalism like you are. It's really dense even by internet comment section standards.
    1
  23.  @chrispeck308  "isn't the same as defending capitalism" You weren't even sure what my "hair brained idea" was apparently because I didn't use the word socialism to describe it and still you knew it couldn't possibly be as good as capitalism. But yeah... nOt dEfEnDiNg CaPiTaLiSm.

  24.  @chrispeck308  "willful misrepresentations" You mean direct quotes where you express your love of capitalism? I'm done wasting my time addressing you. Good luck advocating for capitalism and the status quo and then lying about it in the future.
    1
  25.  @chrispeck308  "That doesn't make me an ideologue willing to defend it to no end." You are such an ideologue you said any alternative would be hair brained and now you are lying about it. I have an ideology and it includes socialism. I also have have intellectual honesty, something you don't.
    1
  26.  @chrispeck308  "you don't have to prove that beggars are inordinately produced by capitalism?" I suspect I'm obligated to prove my beliefs as much as you are. Actually since you are already getting what you want as you are advocating for the status quo it really should be on you to show how the system is succeeding. Is it? Or is there an epidemic of homeless? Of beggars? Of mental illness? Maybe I don't have all the solutions but I absolutely know the current system is failing while you are a clown.

  27.  @chrispeck308  I quit. If you were trying to destroy my faith in humanity you have succeeded.

  28.  @Jensth  "dictorship" It's telling that you have to strawman my argument instead of addressing the things I'm actually saying. You are tough to take seriously. "GUARANTEE" I don't guarantee that you are paid for you silliness but I do suspect it.
    1
  29.  @Jensth  "show me a socialist country that is not a dictatorship and not capitalist" Why should I have to? Do you just have zero imagination? And zero intellectual honesty? So that is why you are strawmanning the things I'm saying instead of addressing the things I'm actually saying? Do you have to show me a capitalist country that isn't a corporate dictatorship ruled by money? Because just because it doesn't exist doesn't mean I'm going to ignore the things you are actually saying because I'm not a clown.

  30.  @Jensth  I literally don't have the desire to try and intelligently respond to your crap much less read it. "Socialist revolutions always lead directly to hell" Meanwhile I currently live in capitalist country that feels like I'm living in a dystopian novel but I'm not suppose to worry about socialism to clowns like you. Nope. According to unserious minds such as yourself I'm instead suppose to worry about your fearmongering instead of what I'm actually experiencing. I should just ignore the fact that capitalism only cares about money. "starvation, stagnation, poverty and war. Historical empirical evidence show this, without a shadow of doubt" History has shown us without a shadow of a doubt that capitalism is fine with all of this... starvation, stagnation, poverty and war as long as someone is on top getting rich but you don't see that, acknowledge that or care about it because you are not a serious person. I hope you are paid for this. I really hope you don't understand all the obvious things wrong with the things you say. You are impossible to take seriously. "starvation, stagnation, poverty and war. Historical empirical evidence show this, without a shadow of doubt" FYI social security is socialism. You should be able to tell because it's part of the name but you are so unserious I doubt you even realize it. And all that socialism is a good thing while you moronically act like it would cause the downfall of society.

  31.  @Jensth  "Socialist revolutions always lead directly to hell" Imagine being so unserious that you act like social security is what's wrong with society. Imagine thinking a health care system would be better if it were capitalist. You are f'ing clown.

  32.  @Jensth  " free schools and healthcare." It's called socialism dumbass. "A capitalist country does not have to be a coorporate dictatorship" Meanwhile, in reality, the person who spends the most money wins about 90 percent of the time. That isn't democracy. That's corporate dictatorship and that is what ALWAYS happens... but hey prove me wrong if can. Show a country where the candidate spending the most doesn't win. Show me an actual democracy. I know you can't but that isn't actually what's wrong with all your nonsense. You are wrong because you have been so brainwashed into the cult of capitalism you can't even imagine any other system.

  33.  @Jensth  "Capitalism is not the problem." Yes. It is. Capitalism will not give you food if you are starving because their is no profit in it. Capitalism will not heal you if you are sick because there is no profit. Capitalism will not house you if you are homeless. Capitalism only cares about accumulating wealth. Money and capitalism ruins everything.... but hey as long as you have enough money you likely don't care about all the suffering it's causing.

  34. " thought the supreme court was unimportant" Nope. They thought it doesn't matter which corporate team is putting them on... they will continue to represent the corporate interest. CT is on the court because of biden. Biden fought harder for him than obamas nominees.

  35.  @garyddlewis3067  "a free, independent and democratic country" You mean puppet of the US who couped its democratically elected government in maidan.

  40.  @joecool3332  They did report that trump and bill had a good talk right before he announced his run. I'm surprised they did and didn't bury it.

  41. He assassinated a foreign official of a government we don't have a declaration of war with. He stopped 0 wars. Trump is a warmonger and deflecting to talk about biden and pelosi being warmongers too doesn't change that.

  42. Only deeply unserious people call a bunch of UNARMED protestors a "coup."
    1
  43.  @NelsonLikestoTalk  "what would you call" Protest or riot. Obviously.
    1
  44.  @NelsonLikestoTalk  "I didn't understand." That is plausible. "You think it was a protest or a riot? Or both?" I think that either can be used to describe that day, depending on the time of the day. It started as protest and after the cops LET them in it became a riot.

  46.  @NelsonLikestoTalk  "Why do you say the cops let them in?" Ive seen cops crush BLM protests. They knew long ahead of time there would be protestors at the capital that day. The let them in and were rewarded with BILLIONS more funding for it.

  47. "Why is it so hard to put money in Research and Development for Clean Energy while producing fossil fuels for power." It's not hard. They don't want to. Our government is bought.

  48. While I tend to agree I know they want apathy. I'm going to continue to go out and vote for anyone other than their corporate candidates just to stick it to them.

  49.  @fun_ghoul  Do you even know what the word apathy means? "lack of interest, enthusiasm, or concern." Not voting is = lack of interest in voting = apathy but not according to me but according to the dictionary.

  50.  @jamesmorrow1646  Imagine calling a small riot a "coup." Just stop.
