Their view of Christianity is that of the crusaders of Europe a millennia ago, not that of the life of the man himself

Exactly. The US know Ukraine will never accept this. They can say it’s Ukraine that are the obstacle to peace which gives them the excuse to stop supporting them. Trump doesn’t want to help Ukraine and is looking for them to give up or an excuse to stop supporting them. This is a win/win for him

It’s definitely real but as you say, it’s not as widely applicable as pop culture wants it to be. People also wrongly apply to intelligence rather than competency/expertise.

The Dems should run on that point, that anyone who breaks the law will be prosecuted when they gain power and following illegal orders is breaking the law. That the president can’t pardon state crimes so they will be prosecuted

Naa, the majority of the voters gave you the Orange Monster. One of Hillary Clinton’s steaming turds was a better choice than Trump. Harris was a perfectly good candidate up against a scumbag and the majority of voters chose the scumbag because of a combination of racism, sexism or stupidity.

Ben Shapiro is only complaining because it’s now being aimed at the Jewish community. He said nothing about all the other bigotry that has been spewed by maga for years

No human being should hold more than $100m in wealth, that’s already generational wealth, let alone a billion and most definitely not a trillion. It’s insane that this is even a discussion.

Trump being so old is both a good and bad thing. Good in that he won’t be around much longer, 10 years tops and bad because he won’t live long enough to deal with the consequences of his actions, for very long, if ever.

I agree. Remaining on those platforms so you can be informed of how the other side thinks, or to promote the truth, is a waste of time. We know how they think. Nobody is winning over the hearts and minds of maga by engaging with them on those platforms. All you’re doing is feeding them your info

It doesn’t matter to him, he will say this is just a reaction to the violence from the left so really, it’s still the lefts fault. He’s a scumbag

Only because he isn’t wearing a mask so he can be identified. They wear masks, not just so you can’t identify them, but also so this administration has plausible deniability. If they can’t see the agents face, they can’t punish them. Convenient really when you think about it (sarcasm)

I don’t care how much I was paid I could never do something this disgusting. These men carrying out these orders are just as evil as those giving the orders. Hillary was right, they are deplorables

So you think watching sports is real because their is somebody in the real world participating in the activity being watched, but video games aren’t real, despite somebody in the real world literally playing them, just because the content is virtual? Do I have that correct?

But a player of video gamesis actually playing the game, a sports spectator is exactly that, a spectator. They have no physical involvement in what is going on.

These people are literally just trolls. Kirk in no way deserved what happened to him and his killer should be punished for what he did but he was a horrible human being and doesn’t deserve half of the eulogising he is getting never a national holiday. They’ll probably put it on MLK day

It’s a grift and tool to silence dissent. If you give a “donation” they will waive the full fee. You’ll also have to offer unwavering support to dear leader or risk deportation
