I’m certain I could be wrong on some things. I’ve seen it happen with my own eyes, it must be true!

I agree with your point in general, but this is a very weak statement. A decade ago, neo-nazis and skinheads were on the fringe of society and nobody took fascism seriously. Circumstances have changed. They can, and will, change again.

It would be much easier to list the things he’s done well.

I thought casualties were the impetus for the BLM movement.

Says Dallas. Puts a picture of Austin skyline. edit: I’m metro Detroit, btw.

I’m not surprised. I’ve said before I hear a looooooooot of negativity towards the governor.

I’m wondering on what legal grounds their requests were denied.

Hillary Rodham Clinton The debates and election would’ve been easy if Bernie got the nomination, but the nomination was the big hurdle for him. Also, if Trump sold off all his assets and paid off all his debts, he might still have over a billion. But he’d have no leverage.

? ??‍♂️

Makes sense. COVID took away the LGBT community’s Pride events. This is a good way for gay men to take that back.

1. Biden is less unlikeable than Hillary. 2. Hillary won the popular vote. Even after catching pneumonia and appearing feeble. Even after the email scandal. Even after a lot of Bernie supporters wanted nothing to do with her. Even after her own lackluster campaigning. 3. Trump isn’t the relatively unknown candidate this time. He has had 4 years to prove that he’s a good president. There are reasons why things are different this time around. Biden has a better chance than Hillary ever did.

Yeah, that’s why forums such as this are less popular. People don’t get likes, upvotes, and retweets and it takes more effort to have an honest discussion. So, forums are less profitable or not profitable at all, depending on how the website owner goes about it. It’s an unfortunate reality.

Yeah, I learned that 2000 and 2016 were 2 out of 5 elections decided by electoral college votes rather than popular votes and that Republicans have benefitted from that discrepancy 4 out of 5 times. Neither party existed yet the first time.

Interestingly, Sam Harris’s latest podcast episode attempts to label social media as a “cult factory” that is responsible for the polarization we see today.

This sounds like a “nature vs. nurture” argument applied to an entire ethnicity rather than a person. That’s interesting, I never thought about it that way. If you go all in on the side of nature, you’d be saying they’re naturally inferior. If you go all in on nurture, white Americans don’t deserve any of the material wealth and status they have in society because they used slavery to get it. The reality is neither of those, of course.

Thinking outside the self!

Beautiful, thank you! The laughter and clapping when he talks about Marx is disgusting, though.

Trump having a NDE.........now that would be interesting!

I wonder if there are odds-makers in Vegas gambling on this. It would be a toxic stage orange thing to do, but I wouldn’t be surprised.

Then we have President Harris. It’s sad that that’s what it would take for us to have our first female president.

It may seem a bit much, but it’s necessary. Trump has consistently shown throughout his life, not only this past year, that he is incapable of empathizing. Losing in the polls, having his tax returns leaked, and catching COVID-19 all in quick succession are all good things for him. Those who lack empathy do all they can to manipulate and stay on top, but eventually they suffer too like everyone they affected along the way. In Trump’s case, it’s happening very bigly.

Music to my ears.
