1/3 today willing to throw it all away because their cult leader lost an election

So I guess “inclusive” means only those worthy of inclusion to you.  Otherwise you dismiss them as cultists.

School board member votes against resolution honoring the victims on 9/11: Story

Why worry about a school board member when we have Congress Republicans who have had a much bigger negative impact with voting NO on everything except more money for the rich.

I won't list the dozens of times they voted to take away health care from millions (even during a pandemic).  No replacement or trying to make it better, just take it away.  

 

You could literally grow old reading about all that the Republicans did to not help the country.  The system is broken.  Our capitalist system is broken and needs to become equitable and sustainable and it currently is not.  We can't even figure out how to pay people a living wage.

That was a quote from @dan in daytona.  I didn't say that. 

You didn’t say that, but you did embolden it and referred to it as “golden”.    I’ll revise my interpretation to that as one of an empty endorsement.  And yes, I must also have misinterpreted that referring to people as cultists is less an isolationist expression and more a term of endearment.

Capitalism is not equity....but neither is Communism.

There is probably not any ideal form of government around that is (equitable).....

Capitalism pays for hard work,  Communism caters to sloth.

When it comes to actual government tho, If the Idea is to extract more from the people....

(or just to compete in a world where nations are locked in competition)

What form of government do you think is "sustainable" ....you know...

In an all out WARRING  and competitive  globe.

🤔

 

PS: Your self disdain and hatred for others is showing again...🙄

...might want to get that checked 👍

 

BTW: trying to promote Fascism by calling yourself anti-fascist is super stupid....🤪

and that's your OWN fault, not anyone else's either....👌

Because of the power of ideas. In this case, it is the idea that the country must be destroyed because of (insert favorite grievance here). And because “whataboutism” never actually does anyone any good.

I bolded it bc it is a nice sentiment.  Simple.  You can revise your interpretation all you want but so far you have been wildly off the mark.  

You attributed the quote to me which was why I mentioned it.  And me having a very low opinion of trump cultist doesn't speak to my views about isolationist nor does it imply endearment (which I'm sure you already know), the implication is straight forward and obvious.  I am going to have a low opinion of any group of people who actively want/wanted to destroy our democracy.  Country over party/person is the thing.    

You can assume whatever you want but it is unnecessary when all you have to do is ask.

What does this mean anyway? Are you asking if I think they should be citizens or worthy to be within my circle of friends? 

Not otherwise.  I dismiss them bc they ARE cultists. they check all the boxes required for a cult.  In other words, if it walks like a duck...

Like I said, there has always been 1/3 of the country that fight any progress.  So if we are to overcome the serious problems facing the country and succeed, that 1/3 will come along but be kicking and screaming every step.

Just curious, what are all the boxes required to be officially deemed a cult?

So if 2/3 people believe in a concept, it automatically represents progress and they are by default, right?

You would've been turning on the hoses against King if you were alive during his time.

You are lying on purpose. Never have I given that impression. I have said countless of times that colored folk back in those times had it rough.

Today I would only believe a black person that was 60 years or older. I know they lived in a time that was very discriminatory and oppressive. But if you were born in 2002, and you are screaming about oppression that hasn’t existed in half a century, sorry I can’t get on board. I’m not buying what your selling. Minorities have it the best than at any point in recorded history. 
 

I don’t buy the guy born in 2002 can’t get a job and contribute to society because his grandparents had it rough 30 years before he was born

A big change would be probably the most obvious that the guy in the top left picture didn’t come here on his own accord. He was brought here by African slave trading Africans. 
 

The Haitians are intentionally violating international laws, and the method of apprehending these criminals is via horseback. 
 

I would expect nothing more from a race hustling organization like the NAACP to compare actual slaves to willing criminals.

Calling poor people who are fleeing a humanitarian crisis in their country criminals is obscene.

It's why you are unequivocally a piece of shit.

That’s a lie. Most of these Haitians were already resettled in another country. They got the green light from this administration that it’s open borders and felt emboldened to break our immigration laws. 
 

And it’s dumbfounding that you can actually say with I’m assuming a straight face that these people are facing humanitarian crises, so the only way to assist is to actually create a humanitarian crisis for Americans by taking in thousands to millions of unvetted low skilled immigrants from 3rd world countries to put enormous stress on our public schools, hospitals, law enforcement and government agencies.

You are just a liberal socialist cocksucker who hates the country so any situation that is terrible for America you cheerlead on

This is funny.

The "greenlight from administration" lie comes in a post where you claim that something is a lie. The border patrol is currently rounding up people like cattle but it's somehow "open borders."

The claims that bozos like you make about the border never make any sense.

I never suggested taking them in.

I merely called you a piece of shit for your indifference to their plight.

And there you go again with "unvetted" even though refugees are thoroughly vetted.

I'm convinced that you never read anything about anything.

Watch this video and try and refute any facts 

It's impressive how clueless you are and how you think posting a video of Tucker Carlson whining about something constitutes "facts."

It's pretty simple.

The same people claiming that there is a border crisis today *also* said there was a border crisis from January 20th, 2017 to January 20th, 2021.

If there was an equal and urgent border crisis then as there is now then nothing that has been done in the last 8 months has *caused* a border crisis.

Also, if we had open borders then, by definition, there would be no border crisis since people would just be streaming in as a matter of policy.

So since our border facilities are overflowing and these particular Haitians are being *apprehended* then what you and Tucker are saying is false.

And since the border situation is the same now as it was, say, a year ago or two years ago then there's nothing new here to report.

So was Tucker lying then or is he lying now? You tell me.

That’s why the wall was so important and a hard crackdown on illegal immigration for 4 years. Your side cried that Trumps immigration policies were cruel, but sometimes you have to have peace through strength. Sometimes you have do the dirty work in order to help the masses. 
 

There has been a border crisis for decades. But how each administration handles it should be praised or criticized accordingly. Biden has took the open border, anything goes policy and the whole 3rd world hears it loud and clear
