Re: Third world immigration
^ Neo-nihilism in one sentence. Everyone who is alive today is so because at some points their ancestors won territorial battles. People need to deal with it. Reparations, borderless socialism, and other such ideas are just nonsense which create negative energy and victimhood. Not that being nonsen...

Re: Sydney Powell's defense
Actually I think most people who voted for Biden could not tell you what his policies are if you asked them. They voted for him because they were told so by numerous mainstream media outlets. If you ask these people for reasons, you would hear the following: 1) they hated trump. 2) sunshine and pon...

Re: Sydney Powell's defense
To me, stagnant real wages is the most important underlying issue in economics. Trump made gestures towards this mindset but most were empty. Moda, am I remembering incorrectly, or have you in the past argued that we need to stop being focused on growth, and work more towards sustainability? Why wo...

Re: Sydney Powell's defense
For a bit of perspective on where I’m coming from, I voted for Biden mostly because I thought there was a slightly higher chance that we avoid a disastrous foreign policy blunder with him than with Trump. How's that workin' out for you? Trump had radical Muslims, N Korea, Iran and China under contr...

Re: Sydney Powell's defense
"Trump is a POS but he's gonna lower my taxes and give me a conservative court." That's not cultish. That's an accurate assessment of reality, even if I disagree with the implicit value-set implied by that attitude. It's the blind defense of the figure-head of some perceived "movemen...

Re: Sydney Powell's defense
At least there are no clowns on the left. At least none that have claimed they were about to expose the greatest conspiracy in the history of mankind. And then when held accountable, took as a defense the position that their claims were so outlandish that no reasonable person could believe them. Ye...

Trumpism is a cultish-religion that lies within the already cultish-religion of statism. Yes. Unlike that completely uncultish Leftism. ::) Nah "lefitsim" as you probably would define it (Anything left of centrism) has plenty of cultish/religious dogma peddlers and followers. Funnily enou...

Re: Third world immigration
Of course if I don’t think I would have a solution to something I don’t think is a problem. Furthermore, to the degree that someone thinks it’s a problem and wants to use my money plus more violence to enforce their solution, then they can go pack sand, or come to me with their proof that they have ...

The best way to get rid of bad laws is through strict enforcement. Force the legislative branch to take some responsibility. The entire criminal justice system would collapse under the weight of all its enforcement implications if we enforced all laws tomorrow. Literally you’d have cops arresting o...

Is there anybody here who either voted for Biden or leans that way politically who can explain what exactly is the Democrat policy in regards to border enforcement? Mine is pretty simple. I believe the laws passed by congressional representatives should be followed and enforced and if they need to ...

Re: Dr Seuss
The bigger issue here is actually copyright. Originally, copyright in the Constitution was 14 years. It may have been renewable once. Copyright is a relatively recent (1600 or so, IIRC) invention. It artificially allows one person or entity to "own" the rights to producing a work. Copyrig...

Re: Biden Approval ratings
I think you’re confusing flat, boring “approval” of masses with the knuckle-dragging sycophantic hero-worship of a dedicated subset of “approving” populace. Perhaps you missed it, but the Left just decreed that pejorative epithets likening people to animals is the height of bigotry. Not that I care...
