And I say the egg came long before the chicken.

Could have been a mod split. They do that from time to time when the topic becomes the Distraction de Jure. They generally only add to the title when it's people misbehaving.

Shhh. Haven't you heard? By His own Actions thou shalt not judge Trump. That's some genuine White Woman Logic right there.

Swordsmyth agrees with you. He's happy to declare Miss Lindsay Graham "an unamerican" and deport it, while declaring Lily the Chinawoman to be as wholesome as apple pie and generously letting her stay because she's more committed to America's founding principles than he is. He just has three problems that keep him from truly being based. He trusts Trump to pick the right person to separate the wheat from the chaff. He actually seems to think he's the right person to play god, and Trump could do worse than pick him. And he doesn't see or doesn't care that government would still retain that power long after Trump's dead. But in the meantime he will settle for what he thinks he can get, and if that means just those born elsewhere, he figures that'll save him the inconvenience of teaching them the American way of life.

Meh. One might as well say the same about expensive full service gas stations. If it's a service people are willing to pay for, it isn't the same as breaking windows to make work for glazers. When retailers start thinking carts left in the lot are "broken", they've lost sight of the point, and public service becomes a quaint memory. Want food prices down? Fight the Fed, not some random grocery buyer.

"We can't bomb the factory where Panzer tanks are built because we're too busy fighting Panzers." Then we're piss poor generals determined to lose this war. And that's why we have to go directly after them, even if it means not shooting at their human shields to conserve ammo. Only a fool lets his enemy define the battle. You're more interested in the busy-work our enemy is assigning us to do than the real enemy, and Swordsmyth just wants to be appointed as a god so he can sift the population like flour. Hard pass on both plans.

It's good to live in Flyover Country. Not every fad that people on the coasts get their panties in a knot over survives long enough to make it this far inland.

The perfect is the enemy of the good, jmdrake. And this self-styled perfect person, who can't even reconcile how RFKJr can simultaneously be a CIA plant and proof Trump loves us and wants us to be healthy, is perfectly willing to get rid of everything that makes both Christianity and the USA civil, merciful and good in order to perfect them both. Gotta pass unconstitutional executive orders to get them overturned. Never mind that you don't need them overturned if you don't pass them. Herd Mentality: The justification of hypocrisy. Please!! Won't somebody think of the kittens!?! I was looking for the famous Bill Cosby routine about his dad, who used to carry his cart because carts have "woogity woogity wheels". Wanted to post that to the cartnapper thread, but can't find that classic comedy because Cosby got "unpersoned" by the Cadre of Shitlibs. And what do I find in this thread? A Shitcon who wants to do the exact same shit in the name of the other herd.

If all 330,000,000 of us move out and leave you the mainland all to yourself, do you promise to turn all the lights off and let all the cats out before you die?

This is what tribalism does to a person

And here again we have the cultist logic that because I can't deny that Lindsay Graham was born in the U.S. and is therefore (by any rational definition of the adjective) American I must love the guy. He's a celebrity so I either have to love him or call him a cotton pickin' black North Korean sharecropper. Nothing is about reality any more, everything one utters must clearly identify which herd you run with. And we complain about leftists changing the meaning of words. This guy's not only using the adjective "unamerican" as a noun, he's applying it to the native born. And we can't make heaven on earth because none of us are God. You are arguing that somebody -- Trump, maybe, or more likely you yourself -- should be allowed to play God. Gee, I can't understand why you're running into so much resistance.

Yes, I know. You're just like both the Trump and Biden regime, trying to charge Assange with treason against a country where he isn't even a citizen. You are so power mad you want to be Minister of the No True Scotsman Fallacy, and sole arbiter of who is, and who isn't, American. Which alt-MSM outlet is it that recently taught you to use "unamerican" as a noun? And, of course, you have to be uncivilized to maintain civilization, right? Are you trying to tell us civilization is built on hypocrisy?

And of course we need more tyranny in order to defeat tyranny. Those who worship tyrants think that goes without saying. They'll call you mad for showing signs of confusion on that point.

Lindsey Graham was born in South Carolina. Collectivist say what?

Haven't you heard? If you admit that the broken clock is, right this one minute, correct, you're a broken clock. Sometimes you just have to deny reality for a minute and lie "for the team". No wonder humanity is being dragged into WWIII against our will. Half or more of humanity is willing to deny reality "for the team", for fear of being mistaken for someone from the wrong herd.

Bunk? Which part is bunk? He says Asians cause less trouble, yet you don't want to see them coming, and you say, "Bunk. They cause less trouble, but they still degrade western civilization." Okay. Now. You just confirmed everything he said. Where's the bunk?

Meh. This is just another example of how the Right is being led around by the nose just like the Left is. Journalists are being quietly arrested while Musk is getting his platform banned in one South American country and Tim Pool is driving his ratings up talking about SWAT by means if audio/video equipment they did not seize. Not only does this stuff give these guys "street cred", it creates a whole mass of people who are underestimating what people like Assange, Snowden and Durov are going through. "Well, it's a bad thing, but nobody's getting arrested or killed, right?" Don't ask me, ask a Boeing whistleblower, or a pedo investigator like Anne Heche. Yeah, we forgot that name, didn't we? I'll trade a thousand hound dogs for a few dead pedo investigators brought back to life. They've made a science of redirecting important conversations down back alleys which are relatively harmless to them. We got caught arresting Durov? Tell Pool it's SWAT time again! People figured out we're giving Bibi weapons enough to wipe out Palestinian Christians right along with the Muslims? Somebody's eating cats! Cats!! American cats!!

You accuse others of being in lockstep with -- somebody, you tend to lack specificity -- and never seem to realize that this tune you sing (a "maverick" tune, just like McCain was a "maverick") is fully orchestrated for you. I've never seen you pop up with an original thought. I could read zerohedge every morning and sing every lyric you type in harmony, even beat you to Today's Refrain, if I had the stomach for it. Both Harris and Trump want to help their pal Bibi commit genocide for mineral rights and oceanfront property, and you're bleating about pets. WWIII is about to harm more than cats and ducks.

This election isn't about anything real. The currency is toast, we pay even more to bankers for interest than we do to arms dealers for death, people who go to doctors are dying, every institution is corrupt, airplanes are falling out of the sky, spacecraft are falling from the sky, and people get their panties in a knot over anything and everything the allegedly independent alt right media tells them to. I really don't know how it's possible that people like dannno can care more about the alleged victimization of Tim Pool than dying whistleblowers and the value of his wages getting cut in half. But it still seems to be happening.

He signed budgets containing the funds, yet had no evidence, had to put a question mark on it, and never seems to have said taxpayers are footing the bill. Apparently he doesn't read things before he signs them. I do, and don't vote for people who don't.

I do. Cared about Pence. Cared about Bolton. I care about who presidents pick to do what. I don't turn a blind eye to deep state appointments or a deaf ear to "promises" that only sound like promises, but are mealy-mouthed and guarantee nothing. That's why I don't get fooled the way you do.

look in your in box. I sent you a message.

Yeah, my problem is I have the bad habit of asking a second question: And if blessed, by whom?

oyarde and sam1952 get a win. Week 2

Once the mafia takes over, yes. Yes it is.

Happy Birthday. Thanks for shining the light for me.

Debate rigged? Whistle Blower comes forward. Is it legit? 1835347966586171523

I'm told it can't be done. Don't know why. Something about veto-proof budgets and master negotiators who play 3D chess for fun being unable to use the ultimate bully pulpit to straighten anything out. I guess I don't properly understand the argument because all I ever get out of it is, "We can spend more to counter the problem, but we can't stop spending money to create the problem in the first place because that would require we stop spending money that we're spending."
