widowslaugh123 06.27.19	Who has the best chance to beat trump?
TheSpirit 06.27.19	the democrats lost
Papa Universe 06.27.19	I thought this year's WWE rumble would be more exciting.
Trebor. 06.27.19	beta o'rourke is a robot
artiswar 06.27.19	it's already proving a better farce than GoT
Trebor. 06.27.19	You have to go into them knowing that they aren't real debates and are just a way to whittle down the candidates. This whole farce wouldn't be necessary if the 10+ candidates with no chance had just fucked off already
RolyPoly 06.27.19	Lol @ beto speaking spanish
Papa Universe 06.27.19	"This whole farce wouldn't be necessary if the 10+ candidates with no chance had just fucked off already" that's the whole Wednesday debate tho
Trebor. 06.27.19	Other than Warren yeah
Papa Universe 06.27.19	it really is like WWE, where they do the Battle Royale with everyone getting into the ring, but you know there's only like one or two superstars just waiting for the nonames to tap each other out.
Papa Universe 06.27.19	it's like a $0.50 fruit salad from a rural airport cafeteria, where you get local dried up produce, but among that mushy mess is a sweet sweet watermelon.
Papa Universe 06.27.19	it's like Sharknado debating the rest of Asylum films.
Typhoon24 06.27.19	Yeah the dems need to quit the circle jerk and have 75% of em drop so we don’t get another 4 years of this orange mf
RolyPoly 06.27.19	Tulsi suplexed tim ryan
outliers 06.27.19	que?
Friday13th 06.27.19	The highlight was Castro saying a "trans female" has the right to abortion. Uteruses be damned! LOL
Invaderbryan 06.27.19	If any of these clowns get the nomination, trump is going to win.
widowslaugh123 06.27.19	Beto is the Rubio of 2020 so far. Trump might win again but it’s too early to tell.
RolyPoly 06.27.19	Sputnik is full of defeatists
artiswar 06.27.19	1 hour of Warren and Booker yelling later, after skipping over Tulsi entirely on the gun control issue "HEY TULSI. 'MEMBER WHEN HATED DA GAYZ?? WHEN YOU WERE 20?? AND OBAMA AND CLINTON DID AT THE TIME TOOOO? ALO MY WAGE GAP??"
Arditi 06.28.19	everyone who watched the debates lost by believing in a two-party system.
Typhoon24 06.28.19	i dont like a two party system but if we dont pick someone that can beat trump we're gonna stay in the 1950s. this motherfucker set us back 50 years with those tax cuts, environmental and foreign policy and absolute disregard for civil rights matters. if we elect a leftist then maybe the right will make a more reasonable conservative party, like one that doesn't exploit religious people to give tax cuts to rich people. we might in 2040 have a viable green party, a democratic socialist party, a center of left party, a moderate party, a libertarian party and a super conservative party. change takes time and is incremental.....so uhhh not voting is dumber than voting for the lesser evil (no matter how fucked up that sounds) if the electoral college is still there, that should be enough proof that shit takes time and people screaming that the old way of doing things has got to go
RolyPoly 06.28.19	Agreed, being that jaded isnt going to get us anywhere.
RolyPoly 06.28.19	On another note Kamala crushed bidens soul, hopefully that will drop his poll numbers
Kompys2000 06.28.19	I really fucking hope Biden doesn't win the nomination but if he does I'll still vote for him over Donny
RolyPoly 06.28.19	Donny for prison 2020
TheSupernatural 06.28.19	Top 5 going into the primary elections in February will be Biden, Bernie, Warren, Kamala, Mayor Pete. These 5 are the only real ones worth discussing. Mayor Pete's a dark horse, but I think he's got much better odds than Beto or Booker. Biden and Bernie both choked in the debates, but I'm not sure Bernie will lose much ground. He's still the only candidate offering legitimate systemic change and he'll sweep up anyone left of Warren. Biden's always been a shitty debater and last night was no different. Warren's got the progressive vote on lock and if it weren't for her parroting the same anti-Iran garbage as the neocons, she'd look almost as good as Bernie. I think she'll gain some more moderate voters as well, simply by being more articulate about her vision for the country. Kamala's the biggest winner by a decent margin. The moderators helped her a bit, but she seized every chance she got and eviscerated Biden on stage for his history of supporting segregationists. Her biggest opponent for winning Democratic votes is her history as California's AG and a prosecutor before that. She's pro-prison labor and previously said it's a great thing to have a free labor source. Oof. Mayor Pete's got something that no one else on the stage either night appeared to have (besides Kamala): he spoke and acted like an actual human being. That's never a surefire guarantee on its own but it makes you stand out a lot in a crowd of 20 people. Also similar to Kamala, he's got a not-so-pretty track record with racism in his city, but he'll probably absorb a chunk of the people jumping off Biden's ship that don't care about racism. Also, he's going to get the "we need a white male to beat Trump" vote... that shouldn't be a thing but I've heard it from too many people now to think it's not. Overall highlight of the whole debate was Marianne Williamson bringing up reparations and US actions in Latin America contributing to the migrant crisis. For how much Republican bitch about Democrats "apologizing for America," only one candidate actually suggested that we actually do. Sadly, no one on this debate stage is as good as Gravel or Kucinich were in 2008.
Sharkattack 06.28.19	Second one was better
OldCrime 06.28.19	Thanks for that summary TheSupernatural.
Invaderbryan 07.01.19	All these candidates are clowns
Viriathus 07.01.19	Bernie, Tulsi, and Yang are the only people who I give a fuck about.

TheSupernatural 07.01.19	^ aka every American would prefer to watch migrants die in our country than contribute to their health Fuck anyone who thinks that way tbh
TheSupernatural 07.01.19	These candidates are mostly extremely clownish; a few are just human enough to not make it obvious how shitty they've been in the past (Pete, Kamala), and the only ones who are actually pushing a remotely progressive platform (Bernie, Warren) are frankly toothless in their bite. The country needs a Che, not another FDR.
Invaderbryan 07.01.19	Why should the US be the caretakers of the world. Why can’t other countries do shit for their people? Instead we have people coming over here voting the same shitty way, making it the same country as where they’re escaping from.
Invaderbryan 07.01.19	We don’t need a racist ass Che as our leader
DamnVanne 07.01.19	Maybe the only way we can change America is to put LSD in Oklahoma’s water supply
GhostB1rd 07.01.19	"The negro is indolent and a dreamer; spending his meager wage on frivolity or drink; the European has a tradition of work and saving, which has pursued him as far as this corner of America and drives him to advance himself, even independently of his own individual aspirations." Che, whatta guy.
Kompys2000 07.01.19	Thank you mister Guevara, VERY cool!
TheSupernatural 07.01.19	What are you talking about? The people migrating here are escaping from a region tainted by a century of American imperialism. They're escaping violence, not vague "socialism." Other first world countries can and already do shit for their own people way better than America does. The rest of the world operates as producers that feed the first world countries. They don't have the luxury of generational wealth to modernize like first world countries. What do you want them to do, just magically be rich like you?
DamnVanne 07.01.19	I’m with Putin
GhostB1rd 07.01.19	"Other first world countries can and already do shit for their own people way better than America does" Name one with 330 million people and our diversity PLEASE.
TheSupernatural 07.01.19	So our diversity and population count suddenly makes our country incompetent? You're fucking galaxy brain over here
GUNGFUHAMMERFIST 07.01.19	pete 2020
GhostB1rd 07.01.19	Oh, so you can't name a county like that? How about one with half our diversity and half our population. Still too high a challenge for you? Wanna try a quarter?
TheSupernatural 07.01.19	Is this really your entire counterargument? This reads like a bad Ben Shapiro bit
botb 07.01.19	I only watched the second night so here goes: Biden looked REALLY like shit Bern looked like old man shouting at kids on his lawn but what he says he’ll do stands to benefit me greatly so I don’t care too much. Every time Gillibrand opened her mouth I wanted to die which is a shame because she has decent policies. Yang’s stuff went over everyone’s head and his mic was off half the time anyway so rip UBI Williamson appeared to be tripping fucking nuts and had me dying laughing Swalwell was trying desperately to make “pass the torch” a thing without actually talking about anything at all Bennet’s face kept making me laugh but he didn’t really say anything of value Buttigieg looked super prepared and sounded great but I don’t LOVE his policies and history of backing cops over common people Harris also looked super prepared but I don’t trust her corrupt ass at all so I kept seeing her attempt to appeal to emotion rather than talk about real policy (of course everyone is going to applaud if you talk about how heartbreaking children in cages are etc) Was hickenlooper even there
TheSupernatural 07.01.19	If the height of what your hopes for humanity reaches is what's already been done in other countries also named America or half-America, you're probably best just shutting the fuck up about politics and calling it a day.
Trophycase 07.01.19	"So our diversity and population count suddenly makes our country incompetent? You're fucking galaxy brain over here" Cultural homogeneity is better for getting things done, yeah.
Trophycase 07.01.19	Also haven't watched it yet, but I doubt I'd prefer anyone else besides Warren at this point.
oltnabrick 07.02.19	trump 2020 fuck da opps
TheSupernatural 07.02.19	You really think the whiter America is, the better? Masks off 2019 just won't let up
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	What would Supernatural's hero, a racist dickhead who murdered women and children and put gays in forced labor camps, think of his inability to argue a point?
TheSupernatural 07.02.19	I've been here for the better part of a decade, has this site always been so racist or is this a recent development?
Trophycase 07.02.19	"You really think the whiter America is, the better? Masks off 2019 just won't let up" Shut the fuck up dude. I saying that cultural homogeneity and getting social programs passed are correlated. Nothing else.
Trophycase 07.02.19	"I've been here for the better part of a decade, has this site always been so racist or is this a recent development?" You're just a fucking moron and like putting words into people's mouths I guess.
Trophycase 07.02.19	And maybe if delusional leftists recognized basic human psychological realities we wouldn't have a fucking moron like Trump as president, since he's basically a reaction to hyper PC idiots like you
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	He still didn't answer the question.
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	How about an eighth? Should we try an eighth?
TheSupernatural 07.02.19	"Shut the fuck up dude. I saying that cultural homogeneity and getting social programs passed are correlated. Nothing else." In other words you were making random shit up? Say what you actually mean, don't hide behind some vague platitude like "homogeneity = good for legislatures"
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	Perhaps a tenth would be something you could muster?
TheSupernatural 07.02.19	Ghost, no one gives a fuck. You still haven't said anything in the entire discussion, just repeated random fucking questions like you're some Youtube driveler constantly begging people to "debate" them.
Trophycase 07.02.19	"In other words you were making random shit up? Say what you actually mean, don't hide behind some vague platitude like "homogeneity = good for legislatures" With the exception of like China and Russia and some Middle Eastern countries, cultural diversity and QoL are basically inversely correlated.

Invaderbryan 07.02.19	So yea trump is going to win again
SoulFunction 07.02.19	Kamala is the devil, no different than Hillary. Fucking save us Pete! I beg of you!
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	The Supernatural's ideal country is a tiny nation with 7 million people who are all white.
Trophycase 07.02.19	Granted, these are self identified ethnic groups so it is also highly correlated to ethnic and religious conflicts.
DamnVanne 07.02.19	So our diversity and population count suddenly makes our country incompetent? You're fucking galaxy brain over here Absofuckinlutely
Trophycase 07.02.19	"The Supernatural's ideal country is a tiny nation with 7 million people who are all white." "So yea trump is going to win again" As long as the left has people like this pushing everyone right, then yeah
altnabrick 07.02.19	copmala 2020
TheSupernatural 07.02.19	Trophy, that's rich, blaming Trump on the people who most directly oppose him and not the liberals who want to appease him. I'm perfectly content not winning the racist vote, the people who cry "PC idiots" any time anyone makes a valid social commentary about system racism, but believes in the sanctity of their flag so much that they demand a black man be fired for protesting in the most benign way possible. FWIW, Trump hasn't been as bad of a president as GWB and watching the liberals clamoring to have him back speaks volumes about how much the centrists and liberals are the ones defending PC-culture with their civility fetishism. Leftists (at least current American groups like the DSA) seek to be inclusive, not politically correct. You can't simultaneously be threatening the current political mechanisms while also demanding their collective reverence. It's an impressive act of doublethink that conservatives manage to spin it that way.
RolyPoly 07.02.19	Sputnik is racist This site is filled with cis white dudes circle jerking each other
Sinternet 07.02.19	bernie or just don't vote. warren at a push maybe. everyone else is a corporate hack or just a shitty person altogether
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	The important thing to remember about socialists is that, outside of Venezuela, they have no authority anywhere in the world, and they never will again.
SoulFunction 07.02.19	There's a young intelligent stud such as Pete and u still reppin Bernie smh
Trophycase 07.02.19	Supernatural are you going to argue strawmen all day or actually interact with people in the thread
TheSupernatural 07.02.19	"With the exception of like China and Russia and some Middle Eastern countries, cultural diversity and QoL are basically inversely correlated. See this map here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2013/05/16/a-revealing-map-of-the-worlds-most-and-least-ethnically-diverse-countries/?utm_term=.fc349342c10d and feel free to cross reference with standard measurements of quality of life." You'll have to spell out what the causal link is here. Again, with the exception of China, Russia, and a few Middle Eastern countries, the highest QoL life countries all benefited greatly during the centuries with colonialism and slave trades, while the lands and peoples who suffered and were exploited did not. Which one seems more likely, that people of different cultures can't get along, or that reaping the benefits of free slave labor and colonies provided a substantial economic gap that still exists today?
Trophycase 07.02.19	Feminists are like the Christians of the left. Politicians need to pander to them to get votes and so they don't freak out
RolyPoly 07.02.19	Pete wants mandatory military service to fix political partisanship lol Nty The real solution is shipping trump supporters in cages to Alabama and then kicking the state out of the union
TheSupernatural 07.02.19	Trophy, everything was directed towards the straw men you set up. If you want a conversation, drop the pretension
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	Have fun with Trump as POTUS until 2024 you idiots.
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	Have fun with a 7-2 SCOTUS. Reap what you fucking sow.
Invaderbryan 07.02.19	Nothing wrong with that
RolyPoly 07.02.19	If you think bernie is an actual socialist you shouldnt vote in 2020
TheSupernatural 07.02.19	RolyPoly gets it at least
oltnabrick 07.02.19	@altnabrick get out of my head
ramon. 07.02.19	rip yang
TheSupernatural 07.02.19	I'm fairly confident the mods will nuke this list before long but I gotta say before I part that it's always amusing to watch anti-Trump centrists go through every vapid talking point that conservative commentators feed them about "the leftists." Even more amusing watching Ghost pretend he doesn't actually like Trump
Trophycase 07.02.19	"Which one seems more likely, that people of different cultures can't get along, or that reaping the benefits of free slave labor and colonies provided a substantial economic gap that still exists today?" The former. Put a devout Muslim together with some random white woman and see if they can reach an agreement on abortion. Spoiler alert: they won't. So instead we'll elect someone who legalizes it then we'll get it rolled back 10 years later when one party disappears too far up their own ass that nobody can vote for them. "Trophy, that's rich, blaming Trump on the people who most directly oppose him and not the liberals who want to appease him." I get that you don't understand, but if you spend any time around alt-right circles (or even Fox News for that matter), you'd understand a very large portion of the white male vote is directly due to reactionary tendencies to third wave feminist policies. "I'm perfectly content not winning the racist vote, the people who cry "PC idiots" any time anyone makes a valid social commentary about system racism, but believes in the sanctity of their flag so much that they demand a black man be fired for protesting in the most benign way possible." PC idiots referred more to someone who can't have an actual conversation about diversity without immediately assuming they want to live in an all white country if they question if diversity is unquestionably a good thing. "how much the centrists and liberals are the ones defending PC-culture with their civility fetishism" absolutely right about this. "If you think bernie is an actual socialist you shouldnt vote in 2020" As far as I'm concerned Bernie revealed his true colors backing hillary after he lost the primary. Though I don't blame him since he'd probably be blackballed by the Dems if he didn't
Wildcardbitchesss 07.02.19	“This reads like a bad Ben Shapiro bit” implying there are any good Shapiro bits
RolyPoly 07.02.19	Imagine thinking feminism isnt a component of the left
Invaderbryan 07.02.19	“implying there are any good Shapiro bits“ You don’t have to insult his viewpoints just cause he’s Jewish
Trophycase 07.02.19	It is, but idk why they act like anyone who isn't a feminist isn't a leftist. If you're not a feminist you're either a centrist or reactionary
SoulFunction 07.02.19	Don't worry roly ur skinny ass wouldn't qualified anyway
RolyPoly 07.02.19	"wouldn't qualified anyway" Someone needs english lessons
RolyPoly 07.02.19	Dont speak to me nerd, jump off a bridge
PunchforPunch 07.02.19	damn got some hot thing
Keyblade 07.02.19	"Someone needs english lessons" has it occured to u that maybe they're not a native speaker?
Trophycase 07.02.19	"has it occured to u that maybe they're not a native speaker?" It's ok, we're inclusive here.
Keyblade 07.02.19	"The former. Put a devout Muslim together with some random white woman and see if they can reach an agreement on abortion." who says the random white woman won't be against abortion? the most hardline Muslim position on abortion is that it's forbidden after 120 days/16 weeks. tfw saudi arabia is more progressive than some american states
RolyPoly 07.02.19	Yes Did it occur to you that there's implications in soulfunctions comment much deeper than what's on the surface?
Keyblade 07.02.19	I actually thought u were roasting Punchy, nvm carry on
Greyvy 07.02.19	ah yes watch the pointless debates, it's nothing but political theatre to keep the retards occupied. watching anything politics related for more than a laugh is cringe
Trophycase 07.02.19	"who says the random white woman won't be against abortion? the most hardline Muslim position on abortion is that it's forbidden after 120 days/16 weeks. tfw saudi arabia is more progressive than some american states" fair but it was just an example. People who are different are more likely to differ.
Keyblade 07.02.19	yea I gotcha, abortion was just a bad example lol. y'all are worse than some theocracies with that shit, it's wild
Winesburgohio 07.02.19	the real winner on the day was democracy
Wildcardbitchesss 07.02.19	I want to abort every baby, but only make it legal after the third trimester has begun

sixdegrees 07.02.19	respect
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	The U.S. collectively has the most liberal abortion laws this side of Canada.
oltnabrick 07.02.19	its time to ban women
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	Name for me the European nations with abortion laws as liberal as Oregon.
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	Key, a cursory search looks like Saudi women have to have a male guardian sign off on the abortion.
butt. 07.02.19	I don't know how we always manage to do it, but there are better political debates in Youtube comments than on Sputnik 10000% of the time
Keyblade 07.02.19	lol ghost ur such a homer, that was hyperbole. but it's still more progressive than alabama or georgia where women are getting charged with manslaughter for getting shot while pregnant, jheeze
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	That happened? And held up in court? But yeah, I am a homer. America is far and away the greatest nation that has ever existed and it's not a competition. Second place is so far behind we're talking about entirely different leagues. As for Alabama or Georgia's new laws, I suspect they will not hold up. Even if they did, it's just one round trip flight to a pro-abortion state away. It's a big country and people can take advantage of laws in one state over another if desired.
Trophycase 07.02.19	Getting your period is manslaughter
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	Fwiw I personally think those potential bans are far too restrictive.
Trophycase 07.02.19	"But yeah, I am a homer. America is far and away the greatest nation that has ever existed and it's not a competition. Second place is so far behind we're talking about entirely different leagues." Oh boy
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	Name a nation of our size with similar GDP per capita. I'll wait.
RogueNine 07.02.19	They're all hacks, but that much is obvious, at least to most.
Trophycase 07.02.19	I mean that's moving the goalposts, but Germany? Idk what your size criteria is
Keyblade 07.02.19	yea dude she was indicted by grand jury tickets ain't cheap man, only well off ppl can take advantage of out of state laws for something that should be as trivial as an abortion
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	Germany has only 25% of our population and our GDP per capita is 30% higher. Point taken?
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	Indicted does not mean convicted.
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	Also I take serious issue with saying abortion is "trivial" but that's another conversation.
Keyblade 07.02.19	relatively speaking of course. u shouldn't have to be travelling out of state and out of pocket for one that's for sure
Keyblade 07.02.19	"Indicted does not mean convicted" well no but it means that the charge was held up by court and is to be tried. it's not something the cops put on her erroneously and was thrown out
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	Dude abortions are like $500. That should totally be out of pocket.
Keyblade 07.02.19	shit is free up here :D

unclereich 07.02.19	Trump will win handily, hard to imagine producing a worse candidate than clinton but the dnc is trying hard. Biden is the only candidate that has a chance against trump.
DamnVanne 07.02.19	I read between the lines a bit I’m that story and it seems that pregnant woman provoked her mans side bitch into using a gun on her. It’s a real ratchet situation that I hi k the media is using as a headline to push an agenda, but she is factually at a fault.
Trophycase 07.02.19	"hard to imagine producing a worse candidate than clinton but the dnc is trying hard. Biden is the only candidate that has a chance against trump." serious?
Wildcardbitchesss 07.02.19	lol then Fuck it, fuck America. We’re taking anti abortion laws to a new extreme in some states. Our gun violence rivals that of a small nation at civil war, we don’t have free healthcare. We’re barely a first world country at all. Our appointed leader sympathizes with dictators and murderers Vote blue 2020
Trophycase 07.02.19	A woman getting indicted for getting shot is about as bad of an edge case as someone going to jail for posting something on twitter. Can we just keep shit to real life please. This stuff doesn't happen in 99.99% of real life cases so let's not act like they are core positions of a side or lived realities for most anyone.

Wildcardbitchesss 07.02.19	Land of the free my ass
Trophycase 07.02.19	Also who gives a fuck about abortion. No offense but it is an extremely minor issue.
Kompys2000 07.02.19	I mean that's just objectively false, many many people care quite a lot about abortion
Trophycase 07.02.19	What with people going bankrupt for someone calling an ambulance for them, or mass surveillance growing by the day, or the climate about to be changed irreversibly, or people being held in camps at the border.
Wildcardbitchesss 07.02.19	“Also who gives a fuck about abortion.” The majority of women, and some men, such as myself
Trophycase 07.02.19	Yeah and it's a stupid wedge issue that probably loses a whole percentage point in christians alone.
Trophycase 07.02.19	Doesn't change the fact that it is a minor issue compared to lots of other stuff. I care about marijuana legalization but it's not a hill I'm about to die on, and it probably affects more people negatively than abortion bans in alabama
Trophycase 07.02.19	Or do we like 4 more years of a barely literate, justice obstructing, reality show star president?
Keyblade 07.02.19	not being free to do what u want with ur own body is a pretty big deal tbh. abortion shouldn't be a big issue but unfortunately it is. I don't understand it but that's the situation as is the illegality of marijuana I should add which has institutionalized countless ppl for mere possession
RolyPoly 07.02.19	So we shouldnt care about abortions because stupid Christians dont know what separation of church and state means and want to codify their shitty religion into policy? Ya no
Trophycase 07.02.19	If you want abortions so badly that you'll take another 4 years of EPA getting gutted and Ajit Pai and coal subsidies then whatever dude. This is politics.
Trophycase 07.02.19	Supreme court is already conservative so it's not like an adamantly pro choice president will change anything
Keyblade 07.02.19	ppl care more about what affects them directly I guess. climate change sounds nebulous and distant. also a lot of ppl don't believe it's even real so there's also that
Trophycase 07.02.19	True. But first of all this is a representative democracy and opinion is pretty split down the middle on abortion, even amongst women. But there are plenty of policies with much more support we can get passed if we can get the corrupt fucking Republicans out of office. Universal Healthcare even has more support than abortion so far as I can tell and you could even roll pro choice shit into that.

Greyvy 07.02.19	Trump will win handily in 2020 due to the fact that he is a Zionist, he won't build the wall either.
Keyblade 07.02.19	nearly everyone running in 2020 is a zionist, what a weird thing to say Reich is right about why trump will win again, except for the part about Biden who will also get demolished if he's the nominee. regardless of what u might think of Bernie, his populism is the only thing that stands a chance against Trump's rn

Keyblade 07.02.19	even his base of liberal winemoms is prolly not fucking with him anymore after that debate he just comes across as a senile old man...still arguing about segregation and shit. and he doesn't have even half the charisma that trump does to make ppl overlook that
Rowhaus 07.02.19	I've seen a lot of debates, but this one was by far the most disturbing. It's as if the candidates were competing to see who could be the most unconstitutional.

JoeTex 07.02.19	biden did well. was attacked from every angle.
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	"Name a nation that has bombed more countries and backed more coups than the US i'll wait" Yeah and saved the world from not one, but two world wars. Not to mention you act as if the coups were against upstanding government officials and not other fucking crazy people.
GhostB1rd 07.02.19	"not being free to do what u want with ur own body is a pretty big deal tbh." This is a subjective question only in cases of abortion. Drugs are just your body, abortion is literally the only issue you could pick in which your statement has an obvious limitation. Everyone draws lines. Are you meaning to tell me that a woman who is eight months pregnant and has a baby that can live outside the womb without a single issue should have the right to have it killed rather than simply removed to live?
Wildcardbitchesss 07.02.19	“I've seen a lot of debates, but this one was by far the most disturbing. It's as if the candidates were competing to see who could be the most unconstitutional.” Sounds like a trump rally to me
Wildcardbitchesss 07.02.19	Oh and the words “corrupt” and “republicans” practically go hand in hand
GhostB1rd 07.03.19	The words corrupt and politician go hand in hand... who are you trying to fool? Yourself?
Keyblade 07.03.19	@ghost, i draw the same exact distinction with drugs fwiw. abortion is just particularly fucked up because it intersects with reproductive health also at 8 months, that's a live human so that's murder imo
Deathconscious 07.03.19	Abortion is 100% ok and pretty awesome and useful tbh.
Keyblade 07.03.19	"The words corrupt and politician go hand in hand... who are you trying to fool? Yourself?" yea exactly. only difference is that there's no movement within the gop that rejects money in politics so it's especially laughable when u laugh off calling republicans corrupt
Deathconscious 07.03.19	"biden did well." What? He got wrecked, probably did the worst out of everyone.
Keyblade 07.03.19	got absolutely bodied
GhostB1rd 07.03.19	"also at 8 months, that's a live human so that's murder imo" See, here you are separating it from the drug comparison. You are acknowledging that, at some point (viability for most people), another body is formed inside the body of the mother, which has its own distinct rights.
GhostB1rd 07.03.19	The vast majority of people share that opinion, and even those who consider themselves pro-choice in polls respond "Lmao yeah no I'm not a fucking psychopath" when asked about third trimester abortions.
GhostB1rd 07.03.19	"there's no movement within the gop that rejects money in politics" Said it before and I'll keep saying it till I'm blue in the face, this cannot be done. Whether above board or below it, where politics is in money, money will be in politics. Remove the incentive to bribe (subsidies, special tax breaks, etc.) and money will remove itself from politics cause it'd be a waste to get nothing in return.

Keyblade 07.03.19	@ghost well yeah, the comparison I was making was before viability, where the 2 are comparable. after viability it becomes a separate issue for me as it does for almost everyone I'd imagine
Keyblade 07.03.19	"Surreal entertainment" like when u said that woman was at fault for getting shot and being charged with manslaughter and that the headline was a media conspiracy to make the Alabama laws look bad instead of just accurately reporting what happened agreed
GhostB1rd 07.03.19	Viability itself is still a judgment call to an extent, with their being a certain percentage chance at earlier stages. Many would also consider that to be an equation that involves more than one life. Also keep in mind that with medical advancements the line for viability keeps inching closer towards conception.
Keyblade 07.03.19	whatever that line is man, I'm not gonna argue I'm not a doctor b
GhostB1rd 07.03.19	Point is it's not black and white and there's a lot of moral ambiguity involved in abortion because of it.
Keyblade 07.03.19	I know, I was just disputing trophy's notion that it's not an important issue is all

DamnVanne 07.03.19	The law is a bad law, but the police report from the incident charge that woman with recklessly endangering herself, and thereby her parasite/fetus, by attacking an armed woman who reportedly defended herself. If she was robbed and assaulted, or hit by a drunk driver or some shit, the assailant would be charged with the death of the fetus almost anywhere in the country and it would be just. So I think this is a poor example of why this law is shitty because the media has to obscure by omission the details. Don’t paint however you please and don’t excuse shitty reporting because its goals aligns with your beliefs

TheSupernatural 07.05.19	"But yeah, I am a homer. America is far and away the greatest nation that has ever existed and it's not a competition. Second place is so far behind we're talking about entirely different leagues." Remember that monologue that Sorkin wrote at the start of The Newsroom where some ditzy college girl asks why America is the greatest nation on Earth and Jeff Daniels' character spends 5+ minutes tearing the notion of American exceptionalism to shreds without a single mention of the actual injustices and violence that it's brought upon the world? Sorkin loves to write against strawmen but when you literally say dumb shit like that, it's a fitting response.

budgie 07.05.19	"minutes tearing the notion of American exceptionalism to shreds without a single mention of" so dude if you actually watch the clip (i did earlier) i don't think it denounces american exceptionalism at all. in fact, conversely, the rhetoric behind the monologue if you want to call it that is pretty heavily pro-american and it follows maybe pretty congruent with what you or i would call american exceptionalism. as in, there are some statistics thrown out there about america being not the best in these categories, but the subtext or driving notion through the scene is more or less saying america has a purpose to be the best. and then the music comes on and the character is talking about how america used to be super awesome bla bla. honestly i think it's a pretty lousy scene lol.

budgie 07.05.19	"Roly or you can grow up and realize that people can hold different opinions" opinions are one thing and you can maybe make the argument they intrinsically aren't necessarily dangerous. votes however have real world consequences & i wouldn't for example blame someone from bangladesh for being upset with right wing voters who don't believe in climate change. point being it shouldn't surprise anyone that political "opinions" contain a degree of culpability

Valkoor952 07.05.19	"who says the random white woman won't be against abortion? the most hardline Muslim position on abortion is that it's forbidden after 120 days/16 weeks. tfw saudi arabia is more progressive than some american states" Damn, you're so full of shit Key, you really think everyone is this naive and doesn't know what you are talking about lol. Abortions in the middle east are incredibly punitive. In most third world countries abortion is ONLY allowed if there is risk to the mother's life or a risk to her physical health. Saudi Arabia in particular includes a risk to her mental health along with her physical. The only muslim majority countries that allow abortions on all grounds in the FIRST trimester only are Tunisia and Turkey. Virtually everywhere else they are reserved to only instances in which the mother's life or health are at risk. (Sudan also has a rape exception).
Keyblade 07.05.19	like I said to Ghost, the jab about saudi was hyperbole. idk wtf their laws are I wasn't talking about laws of individual nations but the opinion held by the average Muslim which is what Trophy was talking about the Islamic position is that life begins after the first trimester, that's already more progressive than a lot of American conservatives which was the point u missed and made u google a bunch of different countries' laws good job
Keyblade 07.05.19	actually 16 weeks/120 days is a little bit beyond the first trimester but w/e that just goes to show u that Saudi Arabia and other countries are more extreme than I even conceived in my head when I made that joke
PunchforPunch 07.05.19	lol educate these fools key
budgie 07.05.19	#teamKey
Valkoor952 07.05.19	"the jab about saudi was hyperbole." Sure buddy, nice dodge. "I wasn't talking about laws of individual nations but the opinion held by the average Muslim which is what Trophy was talking about" Ah, problem is you are still wrong. 55% of muslims believe abortion should be legal versus 58% of US citizens. There's also another huge issue. Comparing american-muslims' opinion on such issues to the opinion of muslims in a muslim majority country or considering them to be similar is very myopic and/or dishonest. For example, american-muslim opinion on homosexuality is that 52% of them believe homosexuality should be accepted. However, you look at the consensus in any muslim majority country and you see that the rate of acceptance is extremely low. The same can be applied to abortion (which is why abortion laws are the way they are in the middle east). "the Islamic position is that life begins after the first trimester, that's already more progressive than a lot of American conservatives which was the point u missed and made u google a bunch of different countries' laws good job" The only thing that you were correct about - the idea from Islamic scripture that says after four months, angels have breathed a soul into the child in the womb. If you want to use this argument as a rational foundation as to why life begins at four months and muslims are more progressive, sure go ahead lmao. Oh and btw, I already kinda knew about the abortion laws in the middle east, which is why I knew you were completely wrong. I did google the other statistics, just because I expected your statements again to be full of shit and guess what, they were.
Keyblade 07.05.19	"Sure buddy, nice dodge." uh ok, I'm just being real. if u wanna puff ur chest up and pretend like I'm dodging u, go ahead. I'm just surprised u have something to add to the discussion beyond "sjw bad" so imma let that slide I know what poll ur talking about, it's actually the one I was thinking about when I made that comment to Trophy. if I remember correctly, Muslim Americans were more in favour of abortion than all Christian denominations except for one (and even then, not by much), which only goes to strengthen my point to Trophy that even if there are these different views on social issues, that they're typically malleable and eventually fall in line with wider society's (case in point, 55 and 58% are almost identical) " If you want to use this argument as a rational foundation as to why life begins at four months and muslims are more progressive, sure go ahead lmao" yea that's exactly the argument I want to make and literally the only one I was making. 4 months is far more progressive than conception. that's it. ur reaching hard looking for an argument when there isn't one

Valkoor952 07.05.19	"I'm just surprised u have something to add to the discussion beyond "sjw bad" insert generic right-wing insult -check. "if I remember correctly, Muslim Americans were more in favour of abortion than all Christian denominations except for one" If I remember correctly he says, after he has obviously googled and found that exact poll just now lol So, apparently you don't read your own comments dude, let me help you. Here's what you wrote word by word: "the most hardline Muslim position on abortion is that it's forbidden after 120 days/16 weeks. tfw saudi arabia is more progressive than some american states" first of all, you are clearly implying that the majority of muslims i.e their most conservative position is that abortion should be forbidden/ is forbidden after 16 weeks, which as we've already pointed out is complete nonsense. Second, if we take your second interpretation of your own words, it is STILL illogical. You think the most hardline muslim position of abortion comes from muslims from the US? I already explained, why muslims in the US would be considered radically liberal to virtually muslims from any other muslim majority country (maybe except Turkey). Which means that Saudi Arabia, or any muslim majority country for that matter (again, with the exception of Turkey) is neither really more progressive in terms of laws, neither in terms of views on abortion, which was your entire assertion. Sure, they have an idea from an islamic scripture that human life begins at four months, but neither their laws, nor their actual views when it comes to the legality of abortion, coincide with the term "progressive".
Keyblade 07.06.19	"insert generic right-wing insult -check." nah it's very specific. this is literally the first time i've seen u make any other point on these political threads. just an observation, no offence anyway, again, ur reading way too much into that comment. the most hardline mainstream Islamic position is that there are no exceptions after ensoulment/120 days which, for argument's sake, i extrapolated onto the majority of muslims. i obviously wasn't talking about american muslims because if you still recall, Trophy and Supernatural were having a discussion about cultural diversity and a hypothetical disagreement that might arise as a result the reason i had that particular poll in mind was because like i said, that poll shows that whatever disagreements there might initially be (for arguments sake let's say the migrants' opinions mirror the laws of their home country 1:1, since law seems to be ur barometer), they dissipate not long after. actually looking at that poll right now, muslims are above the national average (55 vs 53% legal in all/most cases...not 58%, so maybe we're talking about different polls) the mistake i made was not considering that saudia arabia, or other countries for that matter, could actually go beyond the most hardline mainstream Islamic position of medieval scholars. i mean i already knew this but i never thought about it, so i guess my joke fell flat there but it's honestly not that serious assuming you don't agree with my premise, I'm more than happy to continue the original discussion on diversity if you'd like instead of nitpicking an offhand joke as this is quite tedious and accomplishing nothing
Wildcardbitchesss 07.06.19	how many abortions do you guys think trump has paid for
TheSupernatural 07.06.19	"honestly i think it's a pretty lousy scene lol." It is a lousy scene on its own but it's taking the simplified logic of saying America is the best and shooting it down with the barest of arguments and no ideological attachment. It's what Sorkin excels at. There's a reason The West Wing was basically worshipped among liberals. Hell, Obama cabinet members were stating it was an inspiration for them getting into politics. I'm actually a sucker for Sorkin's writing style and the way his fast-paced conversations work on multiple levels, but the way he writes politics suddenly makes his characters 1-dimensional and just there to prove a point.
Valkoor952 07.06.19	"the mistake i made was not considering that saudia arabia, or other countries for that matter, could actually go beyond the most hardline mainstream Islamic position of medieval scholars. i mean i already knew this but i never thought about it, so i guess my joke fell flat there but it's honestly not that serious" fine, my issue was with the assertion that the hardline muslim position is pro-abortion up till 4 months, which even if it's included in the islamic scriptures (based on academic interpretation), it does not represent the actual view of the majority of muslims on the legality of abortion, or their corresponding laws. anyways, #Tulsi2020

Keyblade 07.06.19	"And yet hes up here talking like he knows anything about finance. Shove it, Key" i dont get it, does him being poor make trump any more or less bankrupt? isnt this what u guys call ad hominem
budgie 07.06.19	ad hominem only works when theyre the opposing commentator
Meridiu5 07.06.19	i dont get it, does him being poor make trump any more or less bankrupt? isnt this what u guys call ad hominem I already proved his argument is bad. I'm just pointing out the effects of being financially clueless on his own life.
Valkoor952 07.06.19	"Bernie is still the best, granted Tulsi and Mayor Pete would be good too" Bernie has never been the "best" anything. The number one delusion among berniebros is that he is this anti-establishment, anti-war, genuine politician which is some far and away fantasy. Actions speak louder than words. Mayor Pete got unironically btfo'd by Eric Swallow of all people. His faux christian grandstanding is also annoying.
budgie 07.06.19	why is bernie not antiestablishment
TheSupernatural 07.06.19	"Bernie has never been the "best" anything. The number one delusion among berniebros is that he is this anti-establishment, anti-war, genuine politician which is some far and away fantasy. Actions speak louder than words." Who, among the 20+ folks running for president, has a better record of fighting against war and systemic violence? Gravel is the only one I can think of but his campaign is an extracurricular project by college students.

Gravel is the only one I can think of but his campaign is an extracurricular project by college students." lol what Like I said, actions for me speak louder than words, I don't care what a politician says, I care about his track record. Bernie is an absolute company man, he votes Democrat 96% of the time. He supports wars when it's politically expedient for him to do so, a.k.a when the President has a "D" next to his name instead of an "R". Bernie has supported the war in Afghanistan, he supported the Obama Iran deal and supported sanctions as well. He voted for sanctions on Libya, Iran and Iraq ( from which hundreds of thousands died). He knew how many people the sanctions had killed, and yet he supported a regime change altogether in Iraq in 1998 (Iraq Liberation act). He was perfectly fine with going to war with Iraq when Clinton was president. He voted to bomb Kosovo (one of his staff members resigned over it). He was pro-Al Qaeda in Syria, was constantly spouting rhetoric of how incredibly dangerous and evil Bashar Assad was, pushing the propaganda that he gassed his own people (which is not true). He's incredibly pro-Israel, but that shouldn't surprise anyone. He was pro-drone strike during Obama's years. Was also pro-Saudi Arabia then and thought they were the solution to fighting ISIS, which is a complete joke considering SA are the ones funding ISIS in the first place. Bernie has also supported US intervention in Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia, Liberia, Zair, Kongo, Albania, Sudan and Yugoslavia. His supporters and he himself, always cling to his оnе vote against the second Iraq war. The problem is, a lot of Democrats voted against that war. They weren't really voting against the war, they were voting against George Bush. And that's just the start. There was a divide of how the US should have went to war, not whether they SHOULD have went to war. Democrats wanted it to be more multilateral, Republicans wanted it to be more unilateral. His problem was with Bush, not the war itself. Beyond that, I'm well aware of his rhetoric during the Trump administration, but I could care less for what he says, because it is painfully obvious he will say anything to get his base riled up and to get anti-war cred as long as it's against the Republicans. To claim that he has the best anti-war record among the democrats is a joke, he's a warmonger when it's convenient for him.
Wildcardbitchesss 07.06.19	“He's probably poor and in a basement aptment” “I already proved his argument is bad. I'm just pointing out the effects of being financially clueless on his own life.” lol assuming you know shit about me. Early 20’s got my own place with a decent paying job and going on my second year in tech school, not that I need to prove anything to some cunt on the internet I’m not doing amazing, but I’m a lot better off than a lot others, it’s called empathy, something you and yours wouldn’t know about.

Chambered79 07.06.19	This thread is the reason trump is going to get re-elected unfortunately
MO 07.06.19	"As long as the left has people like this pushing everyone right, then yeah" this so hard. the democratic party has literally gone batshit insane and are pushing even left leaning moderates away. they need a complete overhaul

GhostB1rd 07.06.19	My favorite part about Auschwitz is when the Jews went there voluntarily and, upon being asked every single day if they wanted to leave and go home, said "Nah, I'm good here."
Chambered79 07.06.19	Exactly MO. If the left want to see how the hell that orange idiot is probably going to get re-elected, they're gonna have to look in the mirror
Valkoor952 07.06.19	@budgie a lot of his votes that I mentioned are missing there, so it's far worse than that
Meridiu5 07.06.19	this so hard. the democratic party has literally gone batshit insane and are pushing even left leaning moderates away. they need a complete overhaul Just vote republican
budgie 07.06.19	"a lot of his votes that I mentioned are missing there, so it's far worse than that" could you reference them
GhostB1rd 07.06.19	Yo budgie how much did you contribute to the pot in taxes last year?
Valkoor952 07.06.19	""a lot of his votes that I mentioned are missing there, so it's far worse than that" could you reference them" I could but I mentioned a shit ton of them, can't be bothered to link them all. A simple google search of "Bernie Sanders Kosovo vote" for example will show you the bills you are looking for. PS: govtrack.us has everything you need
budgie 07.06.19	"i have heard people think that the us participation in kosovo is unconstitional. they're right" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8S19u91Dfs not very pro-war man

On the same day, he voted for the kosovo resolution which resulted in bombings, killing hundreds of civilians. What I said about actions being louder than words escapes you it seems. Notice how Sanders always portrays these conflicts as "very complex, no easy solution", he doesn't advocate for war/intervention outright, and yet when it comes to the floor his "yes" vote is almost always certain.
budgie 07.07.19	hahahaha alright bro
GhostB1rd 07.07.19	Yo budgie how much did you contribute to the pot in taxes last year?
Valkoor952 07.07.19	found the triggered berniebro hey, you could do your country a favor and vote for someone who actually has a very solid position on foreign policy (which is probably the most important issue voters should actually focus on), and who's medicare plan won't actually abolish all relevant private insurance #Tulsi2020
