Call it Pol Pot Capitalism.
That's about where I am.

I "believe in hierarchy" like an old-timey conservative and I think Randian idealized capitalism is the least shitty system yet imagined. (Normal white people and Japs do well in it, and they're the only people I care about.)

The current system is so fucked up and bullshit that anyone who succeeds in it needs to be put in the pile of skulls. The ones at the top of the present hierarchy are the worst people who've ever lived.
 
This isn't getting into the issue of rape and abuse in asylums; that was very much a thing. However, that also happens in hospitals today. It's just downplayed.
When Reagan did away with involuntary commitment there had been a few high-profile cases of wealthy people who were secretly committed by family members after their money. Some had been held against their will for years.
 
unmasked with names on there uniforms and with public trials with all the accused being given attorneys and due process you dense fuck
First of all, why should ICE agents have to unmask when people are out there doxing them, threatening them and their families, and actively seeking to do them harm (as we've seen with the multiple attempted shootings at ICE facilities?) Why should they have to expose themselves, and more importantly their families, to unnecessary dangers and threat to life and limb, just for enforcing laws? How does that accomplish the ends of liberty? Unless your going to argue some "tree of liberty, blood of patriots" type retardation. In which case: fuck off fed, and even then there would hypothetically be much smarter targets than Jose Gonzalez and John Smith the ICE Agents.

Second, and more importantly, due process:
princess-bride-you-keep-using-that-word.gif
Immigrants ARE given due process. They're given notice according to the statute. They have hearings before Immigration courts, subject to the whole host of statutory provisions and protections by Court precedent, which are appealable, including to Article III courts. They're able to present witnesses and evidence, and confront the witnesses and evidence against them. They can have an attorney or an accredited representative. For deportable immigrants, the burden of proof is even on the STATE to show by CLEAR AND CONVINCING evidence that the immigrant is deportable.
This IS due process.

As for public trials and being GIVEN attorneys, these are civil proceedings, those are only rights in criminal proceedings. Have you even read the constitution? Your position would given illegal immigrants more rights than American citizens.
 
Didn't see a link to the executive order described in the tweet, so here it is

It does sound like a good idea to bring back the asylums, though they need to make sure at least this time they are well staffed and not the horror shows they were in the past. Though it probably means fewer lolcows to laugh at if this goes through lmao
It is a difficult job dealing with both dangerous and vulnerable people and the pay is likely no where near enough. I am sure we will face an absolute bombardment of MSM articles showcasing the disorder and abuse of "Trump’s asylums" while suspiciously not showing the names or photos of the staffers doing the abuse.

Just from this screenshot I know exactly what he believes, how he talks, and what he says about everything. Everyone who went to college in the 2010s knew a few of these guys.
Absolutely. What's most shocking to me is that there are still millennials stuck in 2015. Like, get with the times.

homo erectus sheboon versus psycho stare stacy lol

>these are the "people" talking shit about their IRL acquaintances behind their backs
5 minutes of clicking through these bottom of the barrel ratchet hoes is enough turn the average man into a schema monk, results guaranteed.
These are the 4/10 foids calling men incels behind their backs while obsessively chasing men far outside their league. What can I say other than ugly thoughts and an ugly personality lead to an ugly appearance.

I think its a nuanced issue and if you feel like there is a simple easy solution I have a bridge to sell you.
Way to strike a bog-standard moral exhibitionist pose without actually responding. If it's a nuanced issue, you're unable or couldn't be bothered to include said nuance in your non-response. "You're being simplistic" isn't an own of a reply unless there was actual substance and nuance in your original point.

I'm smashed drunk, but am kinda' blushing on your behalf. Take a literal drunk's admittedly hypocritical advice and take more time time before hitting "post". Don't take it too hard, 'cause my stupid, sloshed Gen-X ass is constantly editing and deleting shit I never should've posted (this post probably included). I was probably dumber than you at your age, if it's any consolation (assuming good faith and pure motives).

And consider if your argument amounts to "advocate against your own group interest, Western whitey, or your good boy card is revoked", because that stopped working outside of Reddit around 2022 or thereabouts. "If you don't have our backs, we don't have yours" is the growing consensus of the demographic you're trying to address on behalf of groups that hate and want to replace us. And no leftie arguments survive that mental sieve intact.

OHHH FUCK my bad, Dident realize the shining beacon of morality and correct behavior could be called on in this case, my bad. Im so glad our feds are behaving like SOUTH AMERICAN POLICE
I know I’m doing a drive-by here, but your worldview and rhetoric are so profoundly simplistic it makes me question if you’re even an adult.
 
It will never not surprise me that lefties only care about borders and demographics when it comes to some backwater Muslim country. that flag is the universal sign “I only care about borders when it comes to brown people”

"soying out" - Yet another word/phrase coined by right-wingers stolen by leftists idiots.
 
I may be late on this, but I fucking despise how Charlie has refused to make an update video on Epstein until the second he had something that he could even vaguely twist into being anti-Trump.
No update for nine days, but a single out-of-context quote where Trump is referring to his literal Constitutional ability to grant pardons, even though he says in the same quote that he isn't giving one to Maxwell, is enough for him to whine for fifteen minutes.

The desperation to remain relevant is crazy. Not even my normie friends have mentioned Charlie whatsoever in the last calendar year.

Charlie is going to get an allegation in a couple years that's going to end everything or it turns out that he is a drug addict. Or both how I think about it.

Charlie is basically the Act Man. He tries to play the centrist angle with the most safe takes imaginable, so videos like his cater to the most boring, normie demographic.

he quit being relevant around the time he made a sad cope on his ending relationship and stopped making commercial voice overs in my book. idk why people like the fake deep voiced fence sitting

He was better when he was a faceless entity making fun of shitty games.
