I'm going to latch onto this to rant about the concept of "Divine Right". Specifically, in that kingship is not a right, but a duty, a responsibility. The idea that out of all the people that could have sprung from your parents' loins, that God would choose (you) to lead a nation of His people, that's not a right, that's a damned privilege. Kingship, via the Christian lens, is not a position of rulership, but of stewardship. Divine Right to Rule, on the other hand, posits that since God chose the king, therefore everything the king does is sanctioned by God, despite the Bible making it very clear that kings are not exempt from its commands. It is a tool for justifying tyranny, nothing more.

But aren't you aware? The media said it was exactly like that! Fictional stories told me that the King was chosen by God to subjugate the poor defenseless (now brown, and black) peasants, and that everything done by God is just a big meanie-move by a big ole meanie man with a big beard and he's totally unfair guys, just trust em!

Listen wars are okay to start if it's for our Democracy, you trump-loving facist

It's really ironic the Democrat party may become like the Republican party was in the 2000's

I mean those early 2000's neocons are pretty much all on team Biden now. Like, none of them really care about social stuff anyway. If Bush was a Christo-Fascist, why would he be friends with Ellen the dyke? No clue what the Republican party is morphing into now though. They have their neocon/neolib priors and it feels like they're working through them, but I haven't got a clue towards what.

I have had some retard young woke neoliberal actually tell me Bush is better than Trump because he was a civil politician who did not cause racial division. And foreign wars are good to protect the world.

I realized that I was finished with the left when I came to the conclusion that Vice news is just foreign wars + advice on having anal sex on heroin. The libtard base either doesn't care at all about regime-change wars or it actively supports them because "muh ebil dictator", and the libtard outlets are overtly neoconservative.

It's probably just coping for Biden voting in favour of Bush's wars.

 

[The High Prophet of Truth]

That is basically Sasha Baron Cohen's career, but the general consensus is that he's tiresome at this point.

Eric Andre too.

 

[starborn427614]

They're so super buttmad it was literally impossible to resist.

I can respect that level of fuckery and I don't usually go in for trolling in general. Well, unless it's extra fun anyway.

 

[DeadFish]

I
I wish his own people could have roped him without our 'help'. Fuck Saddam, but there was literally no reason to be there and why I am so skeptical of a Biden win being good for us or the world.

It would be good for Biden s and chenys wsr profiteering buddies.

Money wise.

Long term. Not so much.

Constantly going to war in the middle east is going to create more Islamic terrorists. These people dont forgive and dont forget. Ever.

It will destroy American credibility even more Places like china, iran, and Russia look more like thr good guys. New alliances will form to keep america in check and the USA will become more isolated. America will be eventually considered a villain the world will need to put down if the endless wars dont stop.

The final kicker is who is going to fight these wars? Americans. Whats going happen is an endless stream of combat experienced war veterans coming home. Their number will keep piling up. The idea they got their leg blown off just so Biden s stock can go up a point? Thats going cause some serious trouble for the American aristocracy eventually.

These people better pull their head out of their butts cause what they are doing is suicide by proxy.

It still boggles my mind that the increasing racial division is being blamed on the right, when the left went full idpol in 2016 and hasn't let off the gas pedal since. I haven't been able to successfully convince any of my left-leaning friends of this, despite my efforts.

Allow me to make clear that I am not a monarchist, in fact, I think my own thoughts lie closest to C. S. Lewis on the matter. I do not deny that tyrants existed, and in larger numbers than neo-monarchists like to admit. For me, the key issue is that it only takes one asshole to ruin a monarchy, but we have seen the sheer scope of money, manpower and effort it has taken to do the same to the American Republic.

 

[GuntPunt]

RealClearPolitics has retracted Pennsylvania call for Joe Biden.

 

[The Pink Panther]

This may be the dumbest thing Biden will immediately do. Fuck off with that shit. I am probably the goodest of all good goys, but my personal opinion is do not fuck with Israel.

Listen here, supposed Drumpf hater, you're supposed to hate Israel.

They're far-right, practically nazis, and they're abusing the poor little Palestinian children. As the global police of the world, we must enact war on Israel to not only defend our interests but to defend the sanctity of the world and the unity of us globally. So I think we have every right to fuck with Israel since they violate people's human rights according to the UN.

 

[EmuWarsVeteran]

How about a monarchy/an empire so the people in charge are not easily corrupted or lunatics that try to replace the native populace?

I see you are not well acquainted with the concept of history!

Damn, this is actually a pretty useful map. For all the flak the rest of the media tries to dump on top of them and all of the incoherent shrieking that some people do when it comes to Epoch's relation to Falun Gong, they're a remarkably balanced source that tends to ignore partisanship and just... Report the news. Leave it to a Chinese dissident site to be the least-biased news outlet in America. Thanks, media.

Civic nationalism with Twitter rage characteristics.

 

[draggs]

Oh the lolsuits will be responded to

In court

Not responding to them in court would hand the GOP an enormous advantage

They won't respond in the media unless and until they start getting inimical court orders issued

 

[Surprised Pikachu]

Feel so much brighter now, took a couple days off as this shit was getting to me. I really noticed just how pervasive this is though, can’t look at social media, turn on the tv, go online, look at a newspaper or even talk to people irl. Ended up walking the dogs and playing Zelda, we’re in a lockdown so I’m losing my goddamn mind anyway. Just wanted to say thanks for this thread, it’s mostly informative and you’re all really sweet, even when your shouty.

So, did Hunter really appear on stage with Joe? Was hard to recognise him with his clothes on. I hate Biden with a fury but that was a ballsy move - I’d always felt he ‘had’ to run for the protection it would provide his family, the same with Hillary, you get so big you’re untouchable. No matter what the Biden’s are off-limit now for a generation or two. This swamp really stinks.

Don't get me wrong, I'm no monarchist, but then again it'd be pretty hypocritical of me to be so, considering I don't even recognize the fucking pope. I have a feeling we are in some strong agreement on the matter.

You can't convince the fully demoralized.

Sure beats the gnews Chinese gayop.

 

[Harvey Danger]

And speaking as a Trump disliker, how many completely unnecessary, optional wars did he start? Oh, zero? None at all? I wonder how many Biden will start.

"We wouldn't need to start a war, but Trump messed up diplomatic standing all over the world!"
"We wouldn't be having this recession, but Trump mishandled the economy!"
"Yes, we're on Wu Flu Wave 5 now, but if Trump had handled Wave 1 better the others wouldn't happen!"
"We wouldn't need to censor every platform on the Internet if Trump's trolls would just behave!"
"We didn't want to establish the Ministry of Truth, but we just can't let another Trump get in!"

"We wouldn't need to steal the election if all these racists would stop suppressing the vote of strong independent POC whamen! ...what do you mean I said that last one on mic? Where's the button on this danged thi--"

I can't but think that people sling mud at them is because they're anti-CCP.
