Hey guys - I figure this is more "Liberty campaigns" than political news haha.
I checked my voter registration a few days ago. It'll be the first time since 2012 that I'll have voted for anything.
It's pretty funny, I have no idea who the candidates are. No idea what the issues are. And I don't care. It's blatantly obvious that only 2 parties matter, and one party cannot be stomached; that's not a strong enough statement. So, as much as I've enjoyed my abstinence the past 6 years, waiting to be able to say "see - I told you these representatives are illegitimate", consider my buttons pushed.
It's gone way too far. In the liberal la-la land that I live in, I've had to hear someone
scoff at some commentator for saying we need to "believe evidence" ... what??? They really, truly, believed that someone should be believed. Equivocating that evidence isn't necessary. I don't even know what that means. Do they even understand how many centuries of precedent that overturns? The implications of that, completely throwing our justice system out the window? It makes no sense.
To put icing on the cake, the chick literally said that, by being a woman, you've been sexually assaulted. ...What? Like, there isn't the possibility that you've been able to go through life as a woman without being sexually assaulted. It's just a 100% thing, apparently. As given as death and taxes. I doubt it, particularly coming from her mouth.
--To make things worse, you've got the other liberal guy agreeing with her. But "trying to be reasonable", he said something along the lines of "...yeah, she should be believed". I should've recorded it so I could get the phrasing right, but the incredible doublethink, somehow we
believe the woman, yet somehow the man isn't guilty??? Those aren't two mutually coexisting conditions. I don't know if it's political correctness gone off the rails, where you can't tell people "No. You're wrong. And actually, you're insane." or, if innocent until proven guilty has just been completely thrown out the window by a political party.
In any case, the political theater was masterful. Bravo. I don't think it could have been done any better. Get something from literally 35 years ago, that can
never be proven or disproven, emotionally charge it, make it about women, their rights, their oppression, their fear, their shame, and everything else under the sun. Turn it into a
literal charade of "Do you believe in innocent until proven guilty, or not" for Kavanaugh's nomination
rather than *anything* else of substance, like how he is
horrible on the 4th amendment.
--And it worked. I don't see any other realistic outcome other than frenzied, foaming at the mouth liberals bringing out a media
circus of their triumphant victory if Kavanaugh hadn't been confirmed. And unfortunately, I don't see any reasonable person standing for that, despite a plethora of legitimate policy concerns where Kavanaugh is not that great of a pick.
So. To liberals - congratulations, you've got my attention. I'm voting red in November. And I hope it's a landslide, because 2016 obviously wasn't enough for you, you need a very hard 2nd dose of reality.
--And yeah, the concept of voting in this context is laughable. The number of conversations I've heard, about how we just need to *VOTE*. And that will solve our problems. Really? And what happens when the person you're talking to votes the exact opposite of you? What then? Freaking morons couldn't problem solve themselves out of a paper bag.
It's sad, usually several days pass and it's not worth posting, or at least there isn't much emotion behind it haha
. Not this time.
