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.
I'd guess that a lot of them don't vote for Dems, and a vast majority of them oppose the democratic party, even if they vote for them because they feel forced.
i'm not saying that they wouldn't elect Dems in a landslide if they made up the electorate. but that doesn't make the democratic party their party.
and the republican party doesn't represnt you, even if you think it does.
you and the republican party disagree on....
abortion
climate change
war
immigration
economy
military
schools
healthcare
vaccinations
racism
wealth inequality
public transportaion
cops
aviation
housing
elections(collusion with dems to control access)
campaign finance
and that's just off the top of my head.
oh and I'm having rice and beans from smart and final!
Here's the thing: you're all dorks.
Imagine having to listen to Ben Shapiro about anything. Imagine having to pretend Asmongold is making good points.
Tim Pool? [emoji1787][emoji24][emoji2961]
Charlie Kirk? [emoji457]
The Change My Mind guy?
Like who do you have that isn't a complete jagoff? The smartest people you have are all ugly and evil. Steve Bannon type beat. Tucker the Swanson Foods heir.
wasn't that one guy a drag queen? he seemed like a warped idiot grifter. I think he was from Florida? maybe his name was desantos, or desantis? idk.
but he was flamboyant and wanted to rich, famous, powerful and fabulous. and had no morals.
The only drag queen I am aware of is JD Vance
george Santos.
just looked him up.
Within weeks of Santos's election, news outlets reported that much of his biography appeared to be fabricated. Santos admitted to having lied about his education and employment history, while his disclosures about his business activities, income, and personal wealth were inconsistent. Further, Santos had not disclosed his criminal history or the existence of lawsuits against him.
Santos has claimed that his maternal grandparents were Jewish Holocaust refugees who fled Soviet Ukraine and German-occupied Belgium.[112] On December 21, 2022, following Santos's November 2022 election to Congress, The Forward and Jewish Insider reported that Santos's claims about his family's alleged Jewish heritage were false.[6][112] His maternal grandparents were born in Brazil, not in Ukraine or Belgium.[6]
On his campaign website, Santos wrote that his mother was "the first female executive at a major financial institution", worked in the South Tower of the World Trade Center, and died "a few years later" after surviving the September 11 attacks.[117] On her 2003 visa application, however, his mother stated that she had not been in the country since 1999;[118] in June 2001, Fatima reported that she was living in Brazil.[119] Her actual occupation has been described as domestic worker[120] or home care nurse.[121][122]
In his February 2023 Piers Morgan interview, Santos insisted his mother had been at the World Trade Center the day of the attack. "It's quite insensitive to try to rehash my mother's legacy", he said. "She wasn't one to mislead me ... I stay convinced that's the truth".[123]
Santos falsely claimed to hold a bachelor's degree in finance and economics from Baruch College and to have graduated near the top of his class. His claimed period of attendance overlapped with his time in Brazil.[21][39] In January 2023, Santos falsely told a Republican Party chairman that he had been a "star player" on the Baruch volleyball team (as his LinkBridge supervisor had been), having won the league championship and defeated Yale University. At the time in question, Yale had no men's varsity volleyball team.[124][125][126] In a pre-election radio interview, Santos said his supposed volleyball career led to him needing both knees replaced.[127][128] Santos later admitted that he had never graduated from college.[60]
😆
I totally forgot that ridiculous person existed.

Most of us voluntarily read this thread.
How often do I read something random online that I find engaging or interesting or different?
How often here? I have a few times but feels like most people just bringing up the old hits.
Change my mind guy at least gave us a good meme template.
Fake it till you make it.

If you are suggesting that the entire Internet has more and varied content than the six people who post itt I agree with you but not taking your point.
I think it was more like most content is vapid, here slightly less so.
I was at the spa and they don't allow phones but had some books.
One was some super **** book that I would generously describe as mindfulness but was really convoluted for no reason (more pages probably) and seemed to say manifesting would bring you whatever.
The other was some book about millennials and boomers in the workplace and why they didn't get along but purely anecdotes.
I think both were written by PhDs in something. Or maybe they lied like Santos to get their book published.
when is USA govt on the same level as nazi Germany govt? do we have to wait for them to round people up and put them in gas chambers specifically?
doen't destroying the planet do it?
centuries of genocide and slavery?
dropping nukes?
there literally isn't a single good person in office anywhere in the entire govt.

Right. They are rounded up in warehouses unfit for human occupation. They die regularly. Something like fifty deaths reported so far. But people just disappear so who knows.
They aren't there yet. For one thing they are a buncha pussies when it comes down to it. They won't do a Night of the Long Knives.
Trump has a fatal weakness in that he respects the courts. He wants to warp them, not ultimately supplant them. He thinks court of law works in his favor overall so he will never abandon it. That doesn't actually work for fascism.
and also they are raping the detainees
Probably like 10 million murders away, if we were to quantify it. And not like people dying from lack of free healthcare murders.
Do people like filthy think they are being honest? More honest than someone like joe Rogan or Charlie kirk?!?
Just in their own minds. Think it kind of depends I think some those right won't are pre grifters and some just believe whatever they preach.
People have feelings. They don't have to line up with your logical analysis of their situation to be valid.
You have Rogan and Kirk in the same bucket? Charlie Kirk seemed like a smart evil person. We know for a fact Rogan is rich and dumb.
I think Rogan actually believes what Graham Hancock tells him over whatever the actual archeologist was, I can think of it, flint dibble or something like that.
Hancock just had bullshit but he had it in community with Rogan. dibble brought nothing but facts and that just isn't as interesting as ancient aliens so he lost.
