2024 U.S. Presidential and State election thread - I'm gonna... I'm gonna... VOOT!!! I'm VOOOOOTING!!!

[StarkRavingMad]

Really late reply but from what I saw, high school kids just completely checked out when COVID hit, and it never really recovered even after lockdowns lifted, It was sad to see.

COVID really nuked my college years. I'm still not over it and I think it took away a part of me I'll never get back.

I'm a millennial, and as everyone knows, millennials are notorious for being the biggest complainers about their lives. Don't get me wrong, I think it's ridiculous how some people in my generation have reached their 40s and still can't afford a house (for example), so I get why so many millennials are scared about their future. It sucks that the 2008 recession hit just as millennials became old enough to enter the work force, and it sucks that these hard economic times hit my generation in middle age.

That said, millennials at least had the best childhoods ever. The stereotype for millennials is how they are so tied to nostalgia ... But it makes sense. My generation had it really good during our childhoods, arguably even the best in American history.

Gen Z and Gen Alpha's childhoods and overall youth have been obliterated over the past handful of years though, whether it be because of the covid response, or the gender zealots targeting them. And they aren't hopeful about their futures either on top of that.

Millennials were some of the most staunch covidians I saw, a lot of them teachers who were demanding that the schools remain shut down. I heard so many teachers completely dismiss the needs of their students as "Aw shucks, the kids will be all right; they're resilient!" It pissed me off so much. Hell, it still pisses me off.

My heart goes out to Gen Z and Gen Alpha. Going through the covid response was hard enough as an adult ... Can't imagine having to go through that as a child, teenager, or young adult.

I can gurantee 100% that when Trump does mass deportation, leftists will mock Latinos for schadenfreude. These fuckers managed to kill Dreamers permanently.

They're already doing this.

tell the hookers, strippers, drug mules and gangbangers how "resilient" kids are

the "resilient" trope is horseshit

Personally, I don’t know what the world would look like had the South prevailed, but I have doubts that I would prefer it. In any case, I think you should take some time to learn more about men like General Lee, if nothing else.

The thing is, Lee is revered specifically for his surrender.

The more belligerent southerners held Stonewall Jackson in higher regard.

I like your enthusiasm, but did you know who Klaus Schwab was 10 let alone 20 years ago? They could and most likely do have plenty of Sith apprentices that nobody has ever heard of in all kinds of places. The war is far from over unfortunately, but another siege has been successful and I think a great battle is about to be won.

That bald shriveled faggot has been a Bilderberg attendee since the mid-90s, so while it's true he's been in the spotlight the last few years it's not as if he wasn't at all notable before. If you want to see who the next Schwab may be, looking into who attends events like the Bilderberg conferences or, who's chosen for induction into programs like the Young Global Leaders (WEF-run) would be a good start.

It was always about states rights, and the Yankees did not only fuck over Dixie but fucked its corpse and kept fucking it for over a century.

It was about the state's rights to own slaves. There's nothing in the Constitution about fucking kids, but I think we'd all agree with an invasion of Connecticut if the state amended such a right into their state constitution. Or just in general. Connecticut sucks.

In all seriousness, and with an acknowledgement that my example above is hyperbolic, I think that - at a certain point - something's gotta give at a moral level. Slavery is an abhorrent practice.

So were the founders. And, like the founders, they were Americans, and great men of history. It’s important to honor their spirit and their impact, which still lives today. Erasure serves no good end, even if the subject in question is disagreeable.

Personally, I don’t know what the world would look like had the South prevailed, but I have doubts that I would prefer it. In any case, I think you should take some time to learn more about men like General Lee, if nothing else.

We learn Civil War history up here and we are taught about people like Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and George Pickett. In fact, we learn more about Lee than we do Jefferson Davis or Braxton Bragg. We are taught that they chose a side they believed in, but that side defended slavery.

There is no erasure of their impact. Rather, there is the pointed acknowledgement that these bozos picked a side that started a war which it then lost. Furthermore, the Civil War was a moment where the Jeffersonian ideas of greater state autonomy were put to the test and failed. I'm sure that some people will come out of the woodworks and make points against the behaviour of the federal government at the time that are valid, or stupid, or ignorant (I'm looking at you, Eurofags), but there's really no point to the federal structure of the United States of America if each state simply does whatever it pleases.

All that being said, it is a very fine line that our country walks, and has done for almost 250 years. No other country has accomplished this. They always devolve into autocracy or dissolution into smaller independent states. It is a dangerous game that we play, but we do it better than any other culture in human history, and for that we are the envy of the world.

I hate taco people and even I think this is pretty brazen and bluntly evil given it's a smirking little doughboy who leads with threatening people's family first. The "Good guys(tm)" at it again.

All their reeeeeeeimg about ableism and classism goes right out the fucking window the second they don't get the result they want.

I'm eagerly anticipating lefties demanding that there be some sort of knowledge and literacy test administered before you're allowed to vote.

There's preparing someone for life, and then there's crippling him for life. I don't think the full ramifications of the lockdowns will be seen until those kids are in power, if they ever get there. Edit: just to emphasize, most people here spent their childhoods getting out, playing with friends, gathering real life experiences. Even outside of the lockdowns, fewer and fewer kids have that. Even today, kids are underperforming, well below grade level, because online learning doesn't do shit. You don't train someone for a run by strapping him in bed, but that's exactly what leftist governments did. They want your kids to lose the race of life. Sprint or marathon, you still need to run it.

I'm eagerly anticipating lefties demanding that there be some sort of knowledge and literacy test administered before you're allowed to vote.

Ideally it would be a civics test, but if they had their way it'd be a right-think test. Luckily that's looking less and less likely.

We'd easily weed out 10 percent of the population by asking "Where does your malt liquor bottle go after it's empty?"

It's been a rollercoaster and I'm glad we are in the Return of The Donald timeline. The globohomo shit of the past 12 years has been unbearable and I think that this recent outcome puts the country back on the right track.

The 21st century Comintern has relied upon US support and they will pull back now that the US has put its foot down. They won't go away - evil is never vanquished completely in this world and the wicked never rest - but at least I won't have to deal with screeching Marxists who think they're the cultural majority for the next 2 years at the very least.

I am hopeful.

We'd easily weed out all our problems if our country offered people a life worth living that doesn't come out of a bottle.

Arizona is one giant, cheap strip mall. That is its problem.

This does not surprise me as California is the capital of US hypocrisy.
