POG Politics Thread Version 3
Come on in! Since Dustin is taking his ball and going home, it's time to start a new politics thread.
See! Both sides can work together.
Mark, does this strike you as "corrupt"?
Lil Göring getting bounced from some bar. O how the mite-y have fallen. Is he even five feet tall.
I have a baseline of something that feels like anxiety and can definitely become anxiety but may not fundamentally be raw anxiety. It might just be some kind of habitual autistic hyper-planning. My mind wants to account for all the known possibilities.
Sartre says anxiety is a consequence of freedom, a function of the interplay of personal responsibility and opportunity cost.
Capitalism then, insofar as it provides open-ended opportunities for economic activity, should inherently be wildly anxiety inducing.

You are correct.
I hate to be a hater but Sartre got all his stuff from Heidegger and I can't think about Sartre because Heidegger shadow looms so large.
That in the face of which one has anxiety is Being-in-the-world as such.
Dasein is the being for whom being is an issue.
Anxiety is an ontological mood through which the existence is revealed.
amp is a sartre hatre
there is a current guy on the scene byung chul han. I dig him. imo he fits in with the greats, but he's current. he talks about modern life with phones and 2020s capitalism
Republican Majority Leader John Thune rejected demands by Democrats for new restrictions on federal immigration officers as “unrealistic.” Democrats had proposed 10 so-called guardrails against abuses by federal agents. The list includes an end to racial profiling; prohibiting agents from entering private property without a judicial warrant; requirements that agents wear body cameras and unique ID numbers; access to attorneys for those detained; and an end to raids near medical centers, schools, churches, polling places, courts and other sensitive sites. Without a deal by February 13, Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection will no longer receive government funding, though officers would continue to work without pay, since they’re exempted from furloughs. Other agencies, including FEMA, the Coast Guard and the TSA, would also be affected. On Wednesday, the two top Democratic lawmakers — House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer — drew fire from their party’s base when they appeared to backtrack on a demand that federal agents should not cover their faces to conceal their identities.
I was thinking if someone woke up from a coma from like the 80s or whatever, and read that... I mean even Ronald Reagan would have been passionately opposed to this ****.

"as long as it doesn't happen to me"
ah! thank you for humoring me.
hopefully you don't mind a follow-up -
given that you recognize that he is so nakedly corrupt, will you withhold your vote in the midterms for candidate(s) that refuse(d) to restrain him?
No. Because giving Democrats control would be worse. e.g. Biden e.g. Schumer e.g. Pelosi
With that said, I also have no choice. I live in California. Not a Republican can be found for miles.
don't settle for lesser of two evils! that's a bullshit strategy, that just makes things progressively worse with each step!
:p
try to find a third party. maybe some [strike]Nazi[/strike], [strike]demon[/strike] is running ... actually Nazis and demons are probably to the left of republicans
The pizza shops around the pentagon are hopping!
If I'm Iranian, I'm taking my umbrella to work.
Cuba's been holding out strong for decades! but they lost Fidel, so it's gonna be tough.
Iran is the heavy favorite. they killed 30,000 protestors last week(if you believe the press), already been bombed, hated by Israel, and have a lot more oil than Cuba.
Greenland has plummeted in the rankings. euros said "come on buddy, we're white AF! don't take our ****"
Mexico is a dark horse. right next door. they got a woman president?! and she hates trump(iirc). they already lost the Gulf.
so i've seen this guy getting some hate and praise for "speaking out against" ice and USA.
I haven't seen him get a lot of hate for being ****ing lame as ****ing hell for being so mildly opposed.
he says he has "mixed emotions" and said there's stuff going on "that he's not the biggest fan of"
like masked mother****ers executing people in the street. genocide in gaza. global destruction....
"i'm not the biggest fan of"?!?!?!?!?
I know what you mean.
It is good to say something though. It's very easy to say, I'm just an athlete or entertainer, don't ask my opinion.
Popular Twitch Streamer Emiru who is associated with such unsavory figures as Roach King Asmongold and R*petone, is currently going with, I'm just a dumb streamer and that is not going well for her.
I just saw on reddit that Doja Cat, who was in racist chat rooms showing feet, was on her insta telling celebs to stfu about politics no one wants to hear their opinion.
No politics is an inherently conservative position.
And looks like he triggered snowflake ass Trump with the mild remark so good job [emoji106]
yeah you're right. I should be more appreciative that he at least said something, than be negative and demand more.
or idk? is it wrong to demand more? I mean things are pretty grim
Ive not listened to bad bunny and im not sure its my music but thought his half time show was pretty good. Maga protesting the half time show by watching kid rock is such extreme self harm even those monks who set themselves on fire would say thats too far.
Conservatives are so devoid of joy and art, they live such miserable lives.
