Business as usual, why make things seem "off" for the prey.
Pardon Assange and Snowden!
Swartz was an American Hero, and will forever be a martyr of free speech.
You too, I appreciate the perspective and insight!
Ya, it's a multifaceted problem, law enforcement/border funding, mental health rates today etc.
I apologize if I was unclear, but I did not mean to imply federal or state run rehabs, more so less life destroying consequences for users.
I support higher consequences for dealers of hard drugs. Anyone thats willing to enrich themselves while knowingly destroying anothers life shouldn't be in society.
Man, people are seriously losing it. I honestly feel like most of them are bots, but I know some of them aren't.
It's disheartening, but I think they're so aggressive because they're so convinced they're right (which in their minds, means conservatives must be evil).
r/politics on reddit died YEARS ago, like 7 years ago, at first it was subtle, manipulation of votes...But now the shills are obvious, no discussion without insult, all the same talking points.
For example I was on Reddit yesterday and saw that someone posted a thing about the muslims in camps in China, first time I saw one of those posts because they get removed CONSTANTLY for being "irrelevant".
All of the comments inside were saying how the reports were inaccurate and that people should trust CCP sources instead of this reporter whom they all claimed was right wing/religious fanatic.
Also, the entire russia collusion story was horseshit, the fact that people bought into it so easily and people I KNEW believed it, disappointed me.
I knew this comment was coming lol, I'll read your book.
We are so much more similar than different, but the differences are routinely amplified. We get along better than the media will have people believe.
Ya so I don't think addictive/dangerous drugs should be readily available for anyone , but the one stipulation in my belief is that I don't believe in repercussions that do not fit the severity or lack thereof of the crime. Basically I want people to be able to bounce back to life after addiction without any extreme damage to their ability to get a job etc.
Lmao, if it makes more sense I'll put it this way, I'm a liberal among my conservative friends, and a conservative among my liberal friends.
I can agree with most of that.
I understand, have a good night.
I understand the skepticism, but why would a shill come in and say "hey I support you guys from the left" and then dip? What goal could I possibly accomplish?
Joe Biden won the primaries because the primaries were yet again rigged. He is an establishment politician who doesn't care about the people. I did not vote for him.
Its obvious to me Trump actually cares about the people and does things more independently than Biden. That peace deal with North Korea would have never happened with a Clinton administration or a Biden one.
Everything I've seen on social media points toward Biden and his administration having complete control over most social media sites like Reddit.
If it wasn't for the massive smear campaign on Trump, I'm curious how many would still hate him.
I understand, but I think this brings up a far larger issue that's ignored by everyone in the media.
We're human, you can't just slap a title on someone and tell them what they believe because of that title. We're multidimensional, we don't have to fit into a certain box.
I don't necessarily believe a socialist healthcare system is the answer, just a healthcare system that doesn't leave patients broke and in debt. Our military budget is ginormous, my taxes and yours pay for it, a lot of these wars we don't need to be in: Syria, Afghanistan.
If I'm going to be paying taxes, which I have to, I would like to get something that benefits me.
I believe that even the progressive movement has been hijacked, there's so much crazy shit going on in the left it's disheartening. I know a lot of good people with good intentions that will believe every talking point and goal of the left, but realistically I don't think you can equate pure democrat with progressivism.
Hell no, I don't care if I think the opponent is Satan, the will of the people must be obeyed.
I mean people should be able to do what they want. From marriage to drugs to guns.
I never claimed that my support for them was lasting, as a human being I supported Bernie, he wasn't an evil man, he simply had ideology that wasn't sound.
I didn't so much agree with Yang as I did appreciate him as the breath of fresh air on the debate stage, UBI is something of the far future. Healthcare however should be of grave concern to everyone that's not a veteran and doesn't get free insurance through their job.
I'm extremely pro-2nd amendment and 1st amendment
Respectfully, People here, voted for bush/obama.
This isn't a partisan fight, this is a fight to determine whether America is taken over by foreign powers and domestic criminals.
aayyye lmao, was just playin
