100 percent on a side note I was reading Frank Luntz Wikipedia page, and he had a stroke, but instead of blaming it on his obesity, he blamed it on stress from Trump.

He sounds quadruple boosted, too.

Has the farms heard of third party candidate Peter Sonski? I saw him mentioned in the comments on some political videos, including this Catholic channel.
The host even endorsed him.

He is running on a Christian democracy platform. I think he's socially conservative and fiscally liberal. I wonder if he can get angry pro-lifers on board.

I am very, very, very anti-abortion. It's actually one of the few "political" topics than can bring me to tears because I care a lot about the subject, for many reasons.

That said, a lot of vocal pro-lifers who are saying stuff such as "I'm not voting for Trump now" are idiots.

I don't see eye-to-eye with Trump about abortion and IVF (since I want a full-on abortion ban altogether and think there should be some restrictions on IVF). What do pro-lifers want, though? What the Democrats are promising? Are they insane? lol.

Also, I'm sorry, but you can't force things to happen if the majority of the people don't want it. The culture needs to change before somebody actually makes a move on a national abortion ban, in my opinion. It's up to the pro-lifers to educate people ... And also to vote for people who won't throw them in fucking prison for voicing their opinions.

As a pro-lifer, a vote for Trump means a vote for not sending my ass to prison for trying to educate people on abortion. I can't fathom being pro-life and sitting at home this election cycle, letting the authoritarian insanity continue for another 4 years.

You can't make people equal. There are lazy fucks, lazy fucks with high iq's, lazy fucks with low iq's, smart fucks that work hard, and low iq fucks that work hard. Although I will say, some of the kids who have lower iq points can certainly outpreform kids with higher IQ on the SAT if they just work. Mainly because high school math and writing doesn't require many IQ points. IQ isn't everything. There's also concieniousness. These are personality traits of people they are born with, and will inheriently affect their life so that the ones that get god's preference are more likely to succeed. There is litteral zero excuse to do shittily in school with the invention of the internet. All this shit is free online to learn.
I worked as a math tutor when I was in college covering everything from remedial pre-algebra to multivariable calculus. People who frequently come in for tutoring generally aren't the kind of people who are predisposed to excelling at math, and most of the time these were just prerequisites for them to get through before they could get into their major. I had the pleasure of seeing a lot of students push through barriers and see the payoff of their hard work, but I also had some really disappointing cases where they couldn't hack it.

Even when I wasn't tutoring, I spent a ton of time in the math study center where I would see students studying every day for hours. I had a trig student who never fully grasped the fundamentals, and during finals prep he asked me basic questions about sines and cosines. I had a student who wanted to major in computer science, but he couldn't grok algebra and every time I talked to him it felt like random chance whether he could remember the order of operations. I saw multiple students make it all the way to calc 3, fail a couple times, and have to switch majors or drop out. These were all people who were putting in the hours, they just fell short.

On the flip side, I worked with one guy who wasn't even enrolled in a math course and was just randomly teaching himself matrix multiplication without any linear algebra fundamentals because he was doing some online work placement test. He understood it shockingly well, and after I explained some basics he was off and running. I wasn't even supposed to help him because he wasn't technically a math student of the school, but I couldn't not work with him because he was so receptive.

All that to say, I firmly believe that people are not all equally cut out for mathematical or technically intensive thinking. Some people are able to get it and some just aren't. You can move up or down a few degrees depending on how hard you're willing to work, but you're anchored to what your potential ultimately allows.

Trump gave the pro-life cause it's only victory in my lifetime.

If you are Pro-Life and Anti-Trump you are retarded.

People have gotten greedy. I think pro lifer Kristian Hawkins was right to tell pro lifers to support Trump. A Harris victory means abortion buses and pro abortion justices from the top on down and the federalization of abortion law, so take Trump with the bad, don't bring down our movement, we have to get elected even if it means compromise.
 
Rabbi Shmuley vs Candace Owens.

Rabbi Shmuley is such a piece of shit. I was disappointed they didn't really talk about Michael Jackson. Although I'm sure Shmuley was actually probably relieved since if the started talking about him properly Candace no doubt would have brought up that Shumley stole the money from Heal The Kids, the charity he and Michael set up and that's why Michael dropped him like a hot rock.
 
This might sound silly, but how did you guys and girls learn about politics, and when did you become conservative?
The 9/11 attacks occurred, and it wasn't until 22 years later, after several wars, I discovered the truth was not entirely as I was told. The past two decades have been a real eye-opening experience, forcing me to re-examine my understanding of the world. The 2008 financial crisis, in particular, was a pivotal moment, as I began to realize that the official narratives often concealed more than they revealed. As I dug deeper, I found that the reality was often far more complex and nuanced than the simplistic explanations presented to the public. But it was the BLM riots, covid lockdowns and forced vaccinations, that ultimately shattered any remaining hope I had in the official narrative. The stark contrast between the media's portrayal of the events and the reality on the ground was jarring, and the subsequent manipulation of facts and suppression of dissenting voices was a stark reminder that the truth is often a casualty of the 24-hour news cycle. The experience left me with a profound sense of disillusionment and a deepening skepticism of the institutions that govern us.

I wouldn't say I'm a conservative, as I don't believe there's anything left to conserve.

Literally, I was just a gamer who knew certain games too personally to believe the early stars of gaming feminism's naked lies about them. Who knew that the early gamergate stuff had to be grifting, because you had to be actively ignorant or actively belligerent to lie so consistently about games.

Like, I think it was a thing about warframe, where there were only four playable characters, and the only female character was a healer. You literally only have to spend five seconds in game to start seeing problems with this, because among the three starting warframes, the female one is a magnet witch spellcaster-type.

I could even conceive of a case where that honest truth could be seen as sexist, but it was shocking to me that they gave a ridiculous lie that watching five seconds of gameplay could disprove. And when that's your introduction to a political movement - them lying about harmless entertainment just because - it shapes everything that follows.

"Perfect is the enemy of good." - Volaire

People forget that the current state of abortion started out as "Safe, Legal, and Rare" under Slick Willy.

That was the compromise, yes.

The right wanted it to be rare.
The left wanted it to be legal.
Both agreed it should be safe.

Then, once it was passed, the left broke the compromise. So why should the right allow "legal" to be on the table, if "rare" isn't? Remember, it's like 1.5% of abortions that aren't blatantly abortions of convenience, and they have since made insane pretzel logic legal decisions to make damned sure there's no way to restrict that in any way.

If you had told the right back in the day that over 95% of abortions were just women who got pregnant and decided it was too big of a pain in the ass to have a kid and being pregnant was making it hard for them to slut around, they would have NEVER, EVER, allowed the compromise. You would have seen shit like "abortions require a judge to sign off on it" or something similar to prevent -- or at least slow, since we're very obviously being culturally engineered into this degeneracy -- the modern "abortion trucks outside the DNC" situation we're in.
