Hey . . .to that guy wearing the shirt of Trump in a neck-tie headband and America shades . . . I got some beer and nachos in my van. It's right over here, by the river. Come on. Come on a walk with me . . .
Not to mention that they in turn make it harder for those of us who are NOT shitheads to find women, because now they're all feeling attacked (because they ARE being attacked).
the women who want to be slaves tend to find masters in the BDSM community, which leave non left for the guys who think the female orgasm is a myth because they've never caused or witnessed one
There was an NPR program today with a conservative 27 yr old male being interviewed, whining about women leaving in the middle of dates. Apparently when he explains he works for a conservative hedge fund the women become disgusted. He doesn’t understand how being a conservative Republican is a reflection of the person he is. What a clueless fucking twat.
There were probably other red flags too that he either neglected to mention in the interview or, being clueless, wasn't consciously aware of when he was waving them around.
This is why they want their rules enforced on everyone and can't just accept "you can do things your way, and let others do things their way" because currently women can choose men who don't see them as a utility for housework, sex and making babies. They want a system that makes it that way for everyone. As usual taking away choices is their solution.
People who are happy and secure don't need to spend a lot of time telling other people how much better/happier/etc. they are. Important thing to keep in mind any time you meet a so called alpha male.
I'm sure that's true for the MAGAs among them, but Gen Z overhwelmingly supported Biden in 2020. "Gen Z men ... support Trump" is an awful generalization.
I think it's something like 70% of Gen Z women support Harris, but 50% of Gen Z men support Trump. And I work with them too. They listen to shit like Joe Rogan, Jordan Pederson, they idolize Elon Musk, etc. Young men lean right because the right wing falls in line with an emotionally undeveloped teenager's thoughts, basically.
I think a reason that the "grab em" video is getting shown strongly on TikTok is the GenZ was raised with the idea of consent and TFFG has shown he has no idea of what it means.
I know polls are mostly pointless since it's a water drop in the ocean in terms of quantity, but seeing as many millenials (my gen) supporting Eric's father is... fucking sad. You see the world slowly go to shit and you support someone who would make it worse?
I have been talking to my kids about it as one of them is voting age now. I told them I am registered as Independent, and I always vote the issues first. It just so happens that one party has historically aligned better with my stance on the issues. The other is wayyyyy fucking off their rockers.
I can believe someone who says they're not into politics, but even those who don't follow the issues have an opinion on trump. Anyone who lives here and says they don't is a trump supporter. Because even if I actively avoided politics, I would still be able to say I've heard him speak and that he sounds like a 3rd grader. And I still would not date or befriend someone like that, as there is a lot at stake right now and you can't call yourself an adult and not care about the outcome.
Middle ground politics is not remotely the same thing as neutrality. They are completely different concepts; which you would understand where you not so deeply biased in favour of your own position.
"Anyone who isn't with me is against me" is NOT a healthy way to live, and both sides are guilty of it
When the choices are binary, as in a US Presidential election, then whether you are not voting (or throwing away your vote on a 3rd party candidate) because you don’t care or because you have “middle ground politics” doesn’t matter. The result is the same. If you are not acting against fascism, you are aiding it.
The irony in this statement. Both sides are so heavily indoctrinated at this point that an outsider like myself can only tell you apart by the content of the slogans you scream at each other.
Bitch, you're from England. This whole insufferable enlightened-withdrawal-masking-apathetic-cowardice bit would be complete bullshit even if you weren't from the only developed nation with more embarrassing politics than ours, but since you are? Fuck all the way off with your flaccid opinions that are less than worthless.
How laughable. It's "cowardice" now, to acknowledge maybe you don't have all the answers and to challenge your own beliefs? It's "apathy" not to pick sides and die on a hill for no reason? To not treat politics like it was a war? NOBODY IN THE WORLD does politics worse than the United States; where half the population openly despises and routinely vilifies the other half.
Worked with a dude for years, Rogan fan, yeahhh, we all know how he behaved when Covid came out.
I remember he got mad at me for calling Ivermectin horse de-wormer. Also, he doesn't think adults should have to wear seatbelts. Real shitbag of a dude. I'm glad I don't have to deal with him anymore.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onchocerciasis#Ivermectin Because it's not a "horse de-wormer" it is just a "de-wormer". It's a case of dosage makes the poison, but also animal meds having less having less barriers for access.
LOL how do you decline the science behind seat belts? Like...if Isaac Newton was alive to see cars and car fatalities....he'd be like. "...obviously ".... then there's ur coworker Billy Ray. HE DOESNT LIKE PPL TELLIN' HIM WHAT TO DO.
Yah I'm more right leaning democrat. Well based on where we sit today on the scale. I'm not quite centric but close....voting blue is the answer right now. You guys gotta get together and flush that turd man. I know u guys can do it
because everyones sitting on the right and center seat of a couch doesnt make the center cushion the left. you still have a left that doesnt have anyone sitting it in. thats america. get ranked choice going and we might actually have a left. other wise its centralist vs far right.
I mean, that's complete bullshit. The prominent left figures in the country are all democrats. AOC and the Squad, Warren and Sanders, etc. What "actual left" figure are you imagining that isn't already a part of the Democratic coalition? (And isn't some grifting scam artist like Jill Stein or Cornel West?)
The thing is, people's right to exist, or having autonomy over their own body isn't politics. That's what the bad people do, make that political. So, not being into politics is fine, but when one side of that political spectrum is 'I get to tell you what to do with your body, or you can't be what I tell you that you can't' then we've got to stand up and say 'fuck off'
But for real, I think years ago I could have been called a centralist, but as someone else said here, the GOP has gone so far right that it's moved the whole spectrum. I guess now im a lefty.
At this point, everyone is so polarized, I don’t think a true centrist even exists on today’s spectrum. The centrists of 10-15 years ago are left now because the GOP has moved so far right. Anyone who says they’re a centrist without at very least some sort of caveat mentioning they can’t stand Trump is just a closeted magat, a moron, or a Trump enabler
i disagree. most people are centralist, democrats is a slightly right centralist party. the right has been sliding more and more right, using propaganda to relabel centralist. its like saying you scored a touch down because you got a 1st down.
Yep. Since I started voting in the late 2000s, I went from slightly left of center on social policies and slightly right on fiscal to faaaar left on both without actually changing any of my own personal politics. The perception of what's center/moderate just shifted so far right that I'm suddenly far left.
Plus, well, if being "on X side" necessitates you believe in, desire, and will encourage and perform a lot of evil shit, the side can pretty well be described as evil.
