Wanting to shrink the size and scope of government is “power hungry.” Logic checks out.

Lots of anti-war people can tell you exactly what we’re doing in Syria. The idea that you would just trust the decision to go to war to the military apparatus without any congressional oversight or approval is pretty crazy. Keep in mind, Obama held a vote to go to war in Syria, the vote did not pass, and Obama went forward with it anyways.

If your definition of leftist is “good”, then yes, we don’t have a good side to our government.

Just stay away from the mega discords like /r/politics, /r/worldnews and other crap like that. Reddit is a great place to discuss videogames, Marvel, stranger things, etc.

…you okay?

SC resident here (worked in NH for a couple months). Dems want the first primary to be in SC because they believe that black people will vote for whatever establishment crony Jim Clyburn tells them to. SC black people saved Biden’s candidacy in 2020 and Bernie has won the NH primary two too many times for their liking.

The fact that you would allow puberty blockers for people who society hasn’t deemed old enough to smoke or drink shows that you need to educate yourself on the subject. There are no long-term studies on the risk/reward of puberty blockers. The idea that puberty can be paused and them resumed as normal is so laughably anti-science on its face. Maybe it’s time to accept that the people you disagree with actually have the wellbeing of children in mind and aren’t just being “transphobic”

Someone has a tin foil hat if they believe the FBI as an organization is full of shit? I hope you have a lot of extra tin foil

The real question is: why would anyone vote for repub or dem rather than rioting in the streets?

Okay, needs-based social security for the old people already relying on it. And then stop taxing people for it.

Tell me you believe in failed government programs without telling me. Oh wait, you’re already crying about the idea of ending Social Security.

I’m 29 and I’d be pretty happy to stop paying into a Ponzi scheme that I’ll never benefit from

You completely dodged my questions lol

And this stuff doesn’t exist in the Democrat Party? They’re just a grassroots organization that has success because their policies are popular? They don’t have any media conglomerates regurgitating their propaganda?

This is a bogus take lmao.

It’s not even men’s rights activism. It’s just a double standard.

I wish weed possession would be decriminalized for the sake of it being a non-violent, victimless crime… but here we are. If it’s being done as a blatant political strategy to win votes, I’m fine with that. Whatever gets it decriminalized and legalized. Fuck the feds.
