If you have to use the ignore button on anyone but the most schizo spammer then you are using it wrong only extremely low tier honestly should be banned users should be ignored. If you don’t assume they are a sub 70 iq teenage retard with autism and adhd and you block them then you are weak.
The ignore function exists for a reason, so many people exist just to disrupt conversation or ruin your experience keeping up with any given thread. These people get called "street shitters" a lot because they tend to shit in the street and then laugh at you as you clean their shit. It's your god given right to kick these guys off your street or in this case, thread, because they are ruining it. Since not everyone is a mod, the ignore function is how you would get rid of these retards. Gatekeeping is good and always has been, you're not cool because you waste your time humoring idiots. That just makes you an idiot yourself.

That said, this thread is the only one I have anyone muted in for the most part, since this is a news and political discussion thread. It would be a bit nonsensical to mute cringe retards in a lolcow thread because reading about cringe retards is kind of the point. I think this is why some people are super adamant about never muting people.
 
What parties have the motive and inclination and means to assassinate him? Plenty of people are retards without being executed for it
Why kill someone when you can take them to court for defaming you openly on the web-forum they control that's accessible to millions the world over?
 
"ignore the epstien client list and the US government lying on camera on several occasions, none of my children were raped so lets ignore it".
Should I type that in bold and caps to get my point across, bruh?
I think at this point the narrative is:
What’s the alternative? Was Kamala gonna do anything about pedo elites? What choice do I have, as a regular person with a declining quality of life for me and my loved ones from the destructive policies of open borders and leftist gibs, but to choose the person that will at least address my immediate concerns or let my future continue to dwindle? Will acceleration do anything but make things worse for some nebulous benefit someone else might see whenever the pieces are put back together?

Do people want elites to have carte Blanche to do anything they want and harm anyone they want without consequence? No. But that is the world and human nature apparently when you get into financial God mode and until there is a viable way to stop it beyond ripping civilization apart we just kinda have to accept it.

I’d call bullshit deflection after all the ‘drain the swamp’ chants and ‘Comet pizza’ hand wringing over Hillary this very forum has done but I can’t personally say I know a real solution to the problem either.

You would think a member of the Cato Institute would not repeat the mistakes of Cato's life.
Libertarian "principles" in practice mean giving people who already have massive amounts of power (transnational corporations in this instance) whatever the fuck they want. And currently what they want is an endless supply of third world helot labor and turning us all into perpetual renters. One of the reasons I can no longer get behind Libertarianism as an actual governing ideology.
 
He's being a snarky faggot jsut like he was when he claimed trump was in the files. Notice the wording, he didn't say he was implicated, he said in the files. He knows that he didn't defame, but others will, others will assume he's calling Bannon (and Trump, before he deleted the tweet like a bitch) are child fuckers. Disgusting shit, but if you know his history he's just fine with calling people pedophiles, like the cave rescue guy (that he ended up gettign sued by) Musk is a unhinged retard when it comes to politics, and being in public really. It's a shame, because I think he made a good face for his companies, but thank god he has good people at those companies because he ain't it.
I don’t hate Elon, like not at all but I do find him very special.
 
All the money in the world and he can't buy himself some thicker skin, what a shame.
Its the negative part of his drive and success. Musk autism causes him to focus on details, ignore and push through on task, constantly asking why, and ignore social conventions. Which is great in the engineering and tech world but falls flat once you get out of that sphere.
 
TLDR: People are finally trying to do something about the Chinese threat. Too little, too late, in my opinion, but at least they're putting on a good show.
The Chinese century is upon us, the DNC's plan for dealing with China was to force them to become more economically liberal so western NGOs and corporations could infiltrate China and undermine their domestic companies, due to Xi being in power he rightfully shut that shit down and is now giving the west a taste of their own medicine. The GOPs plan was to start a trade war that we simply cannot win.
The political purges of the CCP are only going to put China in a better position as the Tigers and Flies bills continue to be implemented.

Trump: "Are you still talking about Epstein? This guy's been talked about for years. You're asking. We have Texas, we have this, we have all of the things. And are people still talking about this guy, this creep? That is unbelievable. I can't believe you're asking about Epstein at a time like this."
What I really don't understand about this whole thing is that this is such a fucking bad look, that they would've very obviously been better off just not commenting at all while leaving the public in the dark. Why even make any statement at all when the optics are this fucking bad? That video makes Trump look guilty. He sounds like a guilty man that got off and is deflecting (impotently) away from himself.

I just can't understand why they'd take this route. It makes no sense. If the admin maintains this stance on the Epstein situation I am 100% convinced that either Trump was directly involved, or Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, and Dan Bongino have all had their entire families lives threatened, or both. I can't square the circle any other way. It's so retarded.

A fag, a Marxist, and a CCP shill. What a combination.
