I think where we were socially in the 80’s and 90’s when I was a kid seemed fine.. being -not- racist wasn’t performative virtue signalling about how many inches of African dick you could take, it was just live and let live, with plenty of options to live somewhere that people you didn’t like weren’t there.
I don't think those conditions were ever going to last more than two or three decades. Social power vacuums, like all power vacuums, are merely transitory periods from one authority to the next: in the case of "live and let live" tolerance, from largely-traditional Christian morality to progressives' inverted morality.
 
You want me to prove that the White House is posting memes about Donald Trump looking like the Pope?

I mean, most people could just go to the White House's social media accounts and take a look for themselves, but like, if you lost your hands in Vietnam and can't use a computer mouse, then, well, I didn't really have respect for veterans to begin with.
This is not evidence.
No, what? I wasn’t saying anything about @Conan
@gay porn is the best porn is the person I was calling a Reddit tier diaper sniffer
Ah, my mistake.
they aren't socialist, at least not in practice
Socialist is in the name. I hate communists, socialists, democratic socialists, "worker's" parties, Marxists, and everything in between. It's a binary thing for me, unfortunately.

Now this is pod racing.
This immediately makes me think of Anthony Cumia jokes.
There is a non-zero chance that one of my ancestors was a Corsican pimp.
 
I've been reading this thread since page 1, and I don't recall seeing it thought it was kinda different. Krout government wants nukes and the public seem to be very much warming up to the idea.

Didn't they shut down the nuclear reactors because people were afraid of them? What the fuck?
 
Journo claims that we are on the brink of solving all of the issues the world has if not for that evil drumpfler and his cronies trying to throw it away.

So mark can I call you mark? In what way do we solve the climate crisis that won't result in:
A. A bunch of humans dying
B. Forcing people to eat bugs
C. Forcing people to live in box apartments with no chance of anything
 
What the fuck?
They're afraid of Orange Man pulling USAF and other branches out of Germany, taking our nukes with us on the way out. They want nukes, they just don't want the moral weight of having complete control over the devices, unlike the current nuke-sharing arrangement, where they get to keep their peacenik faggot image. They're fully aware of the loss of political capital if they decide to pursue a development program, and they're fine with that, Krout gov getting pretty fucking reckless.
 
The she-boon on the SCotUS came out and said some rather silly things in her little speech yesterday. I mean we all know she hates Trump and will always rule against him no matter what but she just came out and said it.

Quote:

Jackson spoke of “the elephant in the room” and rhetoric from the White House “designed to intimidate the judiciary”.

“ Across the nation, judges are facing increased threats of not only physical violence, but also professional retaliation just for doing our jobs,” said Jackson, according to the New York Times. “And the attacks are not random. They seem designed to intimidate  those of us who serve in this critical capacity.”

The justice’s comments are the most direct criticism of the Trump administration by a supreme court justice since the US chief justice, John Roberts, rebuked the Trump administration in March for pushing for the impeachment of a federal judge. Jackson made the remarks at a judicial conference in Puerto Rico.

Pretty standard Democrat Party line stuff but she should know better then to just come out and say it openly. The SCotUS is supposed to be unbiased but when one of the judges comes and sez the Whitehouse is trying to intimidate the judiciary and she won't stand for it...well I guess you can take the nigger out of the Hood but you can't take the Hood out of the nigger.

Not that anything will happen, removing a SCotUS is practically speaking impossible unless they gun someone down in the street in front of the news media and even then which every side the justice was on would be loathe to vote for impeachment.
 
This really does become such a meandering topic. Like it's funny to see people argue if the Founding Fathers would be conservative and liberal. And liberals will claim they would be on their side unless they want to harp on about Slavery.

Love reading about Thomas Jefferson, he was the most colorful President of the OGs. Liberals like to point out how he supported the French Revolution (which was what Marx essentially lifted wholesale conceptually). They ignore that Jefferson was put off entirely by the Reign of Terror. Is Napoleon considered Right/Far Right because he opposed the Jacobins? Do we then ignore that Napoleonic Code was one of the most progressive government reforms?
Jefferson is a very interesting figure, very much a flawed idealist visionary to an extent. A very complicated man for sure who on one hand wrote the Declaration of Independence (even though its most famous part these days is endlessly removed from its original context), is the origin of the notorious Liberty Tree quote and of course was a President meanwhile on the other he predicted the Civil War to come (Jefferson personally wanted to emancipate and deport Black slaves somewhere else), his "separation of church and state" statement has been a headache (this is something after his time which to be fair during the time he was alive there were actual state churches in the 13 Colonies) and supported immigration for political reasons while wanting primarily more English settlers to come to the United States. He also had the idea of the Constitution "lapsing" after 19 years have past which practically would be very difficult to implement and also had the view of keeping the Army small which came back to be an issue in the War of 1812.

A lot of the modern issues with Jefferson is that his words have been twisted to fit the purpose of others but if a present day liberal met him they'd probably find that he would be a hardcore racist reactionary with maybe some views on religion they can agree on and the only thing making him left-wing at all is his support of republican governments (which is fitting because the original left-wing/right-wing spectrum was for pro-republicanism and pro-monarchy respectively). With all that in mind, ultimately despite his own faults, he is no doubt an American icon due to his deeds and will remain one until the end of time that's for sure.

Wtf do you mean? He was a Jacobin, and was almost executed for it after Robespierre got beheaded and Jacobins came under heavy scrutiny. And yes, post Egypt Napoleon is definitely a right wing icon, his world views on the revolution, brown people and republics had changed, he was autistic, he did away with a lot of the bullshit of the revolution, he brought back the monarchy, he centralized the power, he put niggers back in chains, was anti semitic cause he ran his own central bank and censored the kike owned newspapers and most importantly was the coolest retard to ever live and thus I claim him for us.
Do we then ignore that Napoleonic Code was one of the most progressive government reforms?
No. The Progressiveness of the code was in completely doing away with the heavily regionalized and overly complicated feudal case law system that had only been patched and made worse under the republic, instead replacing it with a new efficient codex that standardized lawfare across France, that was much simpler to understand for the common man, also made most men equal in front of the law, no more nobility or clergy bullshit, and also took away the right of judges to make up new bullshit laws via case law (which btw JD or any white house staff reading this, Trump totally needs to copy Napoleon on this, the codex was based and case law is infact complete bullshit, the job of a judge is to keep law, not make it. That's the job of the legislative branch), and didn't include any religious bullshit.

You ever noticed how china spends so much money and energy on mega projects? Like genuinely it is crazy just how much china burns on that stuff, and yet despite those mega projects they still have housing problems. So why would the ccp waste so much resources on projects that I wat benefit the Chinese people? Well its simple those mega projects, those cool buildings, or trains or structures, they aren't done to help people, they are propaganda, they exist so that Western commiefags can soyjack point at the cool structure and show how advanced the chinks are. As long as you ignore the population and housing problems of course.
