[Viktor_Suvorov]

O say can you Shart

At the local Walmart

What so proudly expelled

Through asshole's last leaking

Whose broad streaks and brown stars

Through the perilous blight

O'er aisles we watched

Shit gallantly streaming

And the mutt's nappy hair

The negroes everywhere

Gave proof that our race

Is a 56% disgrace

O say does that shit spangle

Bummer yet cut

For the land of the shart

And the home of the mutt

It is interesting how the right in particular came to be associated with being so against video games when some of the individuals who went after them the hardest were members of the Democratic Party. These weren't just pastors telling their congregation not to play them or they were unholy in a particular way, these were legal attempts to effect the gaming industry at large.

The 1993–94 United States Senate hearings on video games that lead to the creation of the ESRB under threat that the government would regulate video games for the industry if they did not take the steps themselves? Lead by Senator Joe Lieberman and Senator Herb Kohl, both were Democrats.

yeah thats also worth mentioning there was definitely rumblings of anti-Gamer sentiment among even Centrist boomers even back then, I don't think it was fully manifested until after Occupy Wall Street when companies starting pushing woke shit to divert the left away from economics and into retarded social causes that no one liked, Jack Thompson was another example, he was basically the last significant anti-Gamer Republican before GamerGate drove a lot of Gamers to the right

But the RNC you could say is beholden to an idealized version of the country. 92% is a little TOO high. America is good, but not that good.

America is that good.
Fuck you commie

I think this makes both parties seem a bit servile and slavish, just to different things.

The DNC is definitely just goosestepping with whatever any glass screen tells them. But the RNC you could say is beholden to an idealized version of the country. 92% is a little TOO high. America is good, but not that good.

Shut up faggor America rules nigger go back to whatever shithole your ancestors came from if you don’t like it. Not on Americas birthday you unpatriotic fuck.

Does neutering yourself or the product to get more mass market appeal ever work?

It depends on the time and the place and which segment of your product is more fickle. More importantly, is your product still any good?

Leftist parties tend to benefit more from watering down their product than rightist parties. It's a much easier sell, moderate leftists sell welfare and workers benefits which are far more popular than socialist revolution. Rightist parties tend to fragment much more when they moderate, as those in the middle tend to go along with those on the extremes, but not vice versa. Rightist movements are typically a coalition of diverse political opinions while leftist movements are rather homogenous politically.

With leftists, you can brow-beat the extremes into supporting the moderate. The extreme right will just stay home.

other verses in leviticus just as well dictate that foreigners are to follow the same laws as their israelite fellows lest they be punished or cast out just the same. it is not a boilerplate direction to tolerate foreigners and all they do.

These are the same people who hate the Bible because of Levitical ceremonial laws. Meanwhile, they want to quote the Law in order to own the right.

To add to that, a lot of draft dodging Boomers couldn't get into college back in the sixties and seventies, but could get into Seminaries, as well as Communists and Socialists actively infiltrating both Catholics and Protestant churches. Marxism is best thought of as a secular religion, replacing God with the State, so religion either has to go or has to conform to the State, especially as it's one of the bulwarks against Progressive madness. They took over the seminaries, then pushed progressive pastors, but slowly, and since the Boomer laity was mostly fine with the Cult of Niceness, they didn't notice until too late.

Makes sense, but the problem comes with people attending these churches and being robbed blind by giving them money and being run into deep credit card debt, just like the blab it and grab it megachurches where they're going to be worshipping directly into Hell. People will for the most part sit in the pew and nod.

video games... all kinds of pop culture stuff. [. . .] you don't have a hobby where you can escape their eternal revolution.

>LGBT slop in vidya
>games on average cost half a hundred bucks
>people well into their 20's playing vidya period

Stop playing video games lads.

Just think if that Crenshaw never had a career in politics, we would've never gotten this wonderful campaign ad:

This is the most Marvel brained shit I've ever seen.

Few probably know or care where it's coming from.

[The Big A]

the Catholic Church for example, there was a strange uptick in converts before Vatican II happened, luckily theres a much longer emphasis on tradition and ritual with Catholicism so it's not all lost in terms of going full pro-gay,pro-trans,etc. at worst it created a generation of Vatican II Boomers who know virtually nothing about the faith and support things that every Catholic would have never been in support of in the 2000 years of Church History and many Younger Catholics see the recent history and have fought back, with many Protestant Churches they are far easier to maniuplate given the fact that cherry picking scripture and a tradition of questioning things have been a thing within those denominations since the days of Luther and Calvin, thats why you see millions of subsect and Churches within it, particularly in the United States where some denominations are Conservative while others are full globohomo and have no belief in Jesus and might as well be preaching from the Communist Manifesto instead of the Bible, and I am not necessarily saying Protestants are bad people here, just that its more institutionally maleable.

On the other hand, the immense institutional rigidity makes a successful infiltration much harder to pull off but near impossible to remove if they make it to the top. While there are traditionalist movements that reject Vatican II and the pozz teachings of the last few decades, the Catholic reverence to hierarchy and position have come around to bite them in the ass. Most conservative minded Catholics outright agree that Vatican II has produced nothing but bad fruit and has wrecked the church, but they still revere the very propigators of these teachings while calling them heretical and even blasphemous. Protestantism's weakness of disorganization and schism becomes a strength when fully infiltrated, and vice versa for Catholics.

As for hope that younger generations will fix the Vatican II RCC, remember that leftists value political loyalty above all else. Anyone who will rise to power in an already compromized institution will reflect the wishes of their bosses. When a Protestant denomination gets pozzed, you can expect 25-33% of the laity and clergy to break off instantly. After 60 years of Vatican II, maybe one in every one hundred Catholics have joined traditionalist Churches that reject the council.

I'd argue that 92% is fine since the US is one of the few countries that's getting better atm. Outside the US and Argentina i can't really name a country that's improving.

Ok for a lazy retard like me, someone sum up this big beautiful bill and if it's good or bad, be honest in your opinion.

how certain everyone was that Kamala would win, you'd think i would have learned not to believe pollsters by now but i was pretty blackpilled.

Um…what? Quite literally nobody except the pollsters thought Kamala was going to win. She lead the worst campaign of all time, avoided public speaking like a plague, and had no authentic support.
If you genuinely got blackpilled into thinking she was gonna win, when Trump had already won with the assassination attempt, after he had already won with the mock trial, then you fell for some of the worst propaganda on earth

It takes so long because they have to reformat the recipe and they start producing the stuff well in advance. Especially when the years planned is so close (from their standards). If they had said something like 2029 or 2030 I would have agreed.
