Does something happen in Bytor Peltor's head when he opens this thread? He seems like a reasonable enough guy in all other threads, but here he just spouts off barely coherent, randomly capitalised garbage, and posts images that should appeal only to the lowest-common denominator of person.

I'm mostly an observer on this forum but nonetheless the above is an interesting phenomenon, to me.

Justin Amash on his fellow Republans:

“I’ve seen it from my colleagues. ‘Oh, I won’t be principled on this one. And oh, on this one too… and then, a year later, they’re a zombie,” he said to the crowd. “I couldn’t look my kids in the eye and say I was a responsible person if I did that kind of thing.”

I like Amash, all things considered.

Israel situation interesting (and pretty fucking scary)

Biyamin Netan-yoo-hoo needs to form a government or he loses his immunity for corruption charges. But his coalition includes the ultra orthodox, who don't want to be drafted (and claim to be all scholars studying the Talmud to avoid the draft) and anti Palestinian right wingers who want no exemptions for the draft. We'll see how it plays out, but that fucking Binyamin & Sarah Yoo-hoo are survivors.

Also Noteayoohoo is trying to distance hisself from the US/Iran conflict. This after his providing all the intel that Trimp is using to amp up the situation. Reese Bolton, when asked about the “ship damage”, said something like “of course Iran did it, who else would, Nepal?”

Nettieboy is justifiably worried that a shooting war between US & Iran would very likely destroy a lot of Israel. He’s been rattling sabre for a long time, mostly for political gain, but now fears it when it actually looks like Trimp & Bolton in are in charge of WMD. :shock:

Mueller revelations did little to change Trump’s ‘personality cult’ supporters’ minds — a Yale psychiatrist explains why

https://tinyurl.com/y3ympvcb

https://www.rawstory.com/2019/05/mue...-explains-why/

"What impact do you think it’ll (Mueller's refusal to exonerate Trump on the issue of obstruction and Trump's reaction) have on his followers? Why?

Currently, Mr. Trump has turned his followers into a personality cult, which will believe whatever he says over all evidence, and so they will simply amplify his impairments. He himself told them: “What you are seeing and what you are reading is not what’s happening.“

It is important to note that fascism is not a political ideology or strategy but mental pathology at societal scale, starting with an impaired leader who attains power not to lead but to fulfill his own dysfunctional needs. Of course, such a leader is attractive in the first place because of similar pathologies in the population, which global economic inequities and massive social injustices in our day could have predicted. Since such a leader does not have any real ability to lead, he manipulates the psychological weaknesses in the population, augmenting societal disorder until the dynamic brings down the entire society. Destruction is always the inevitable result, as it is the nature of pathology, as opposed to healthy choices."

State Department will focus on “natural rights” and how far we’ve strayed..

Pompous Pompey Pompeeo sez: “bible informs everything I do“

If we’re really returning to natural law, guys like Pompey have like 0 chance of survival.

They can learn to eat creamed corn, and SPAM, and beans, just as I, their senior in years, have been doing for far too long by now.

Let Mexico pay for the wall, one way or another!

lmao that recipe for ass cancer with a side of deluded smugness is hilarious

try some fresh fruit and vegetables at least occasionally

o wait, they gave you a food tax, a bridge too far, say bye bye now

bye bye

There's always the option of eating Elizabeth Warren. Just saw her get roasted by Charlamagne the God. Hillary can bring the hot sauce.

oh i had to google. still with the race thing? lmao. a useless debate but she dug her own grave. but that’s politics for the masses: a celebrity contest. and so the apprentice keeps conning fools while he wrecks the world’s economy with his tweets.

but here is don the con’s egregious record on racial matters, to compare with her fibs:
http://fortune.com/2016/06/07/donald...racism-quotes/
https://www.vox.com/2016/7/25/122708...racism-history
racist republicans just keep looking the other way though.

warren has got some good ideas even though she’s not been a great candidate.

i’ve been pondering her wealth tax, and while i’m not yet a convert i’m less allergic to it than i was before. meaning some of it makes some sense.

her big tech breakups i don’t know either. a lot of pros and cons. still, an idea worth debating in the age of facebook.

but her universal child care program is one of the most constructive out there. i see little downside to it.

demonrail666 · 06.02.2019, 03:15 PM

I actually don't care if she identifies as whatever. If someone can identify as a gender other than the one they're born with, then I don't see why someone else shouldn't be able to identify as any race of their choosing. Why is Caitlyn Jenner treated as a hero(ine) while someone like Rachel Dolezal gets ridiculed?

!@#$%! · 06.02.2019, 03:33 PM

im not going to follow you into that wrongness

but why does the senile dotard identify as a stable genius?

Well I assume you're talking about Trump but as I don't see him as either of those things, my answer (namely, that he's not as smart as maybe he thinks he is but a helluva lot smarter than most of his critics want to believe) doesn't really apply.
