What the fuck do you mean by "bad" exactly?

I am not going to play this game with you today. Trump broke your brain, I get it. Keep stumping for your team. Hating half the country is a solid strategy for both sides. I feel it is going to work out well.

I'm excited.

You want to just jab in generalities and not back up anything you say.

What do you want to hear, Pete? You want me to cry in my cheerios or do you want me quoting Henry V?

You want me to accept my new overlord and reject the enlightenment? Or do you just want to commiserate and throw some moral judgments around?

I can do any of that for you.

No Man. You convinced me. Every single solitary policy and policy position of the left in history has been fucking phenomenal.

Fuck it, I am converting and now fully support the Squad.

Happy?

Ending welfare for illegal immigrants
And then if they have children, not only do the children get automatic citizenship, but they unlock a trove of additional government benefits flowing to illegal immigrant households. In the meantime, our Vets suffer and our citizens suffer. On Day One of my new Administration, we will shut down this travesty and defend the wealth of hardworking Middle-Class families.

I will stop the outrageous abuse of parole authority. I will reinstate my action making illegals ineligible for public housing. We will terminate all work permits for illegal aliens. And I will demand that Congress send me a bill blocking any future President from abusing his power to distribute welfare benefits in this manner. It's all being paid for by the American taxpayer.

Like automatic citizenship for children of illegal aliens, welfare is a gigantic magnet drawing people from all over the world. They want to come to the United States. They want to feast off the sweat and savings of the American taxpayer. It's not fair. It's not just. We're not going to let it happen. I will end it all immediately.
Pretty safe to say the welfare state as a whole will be unavailable to just about everyone but veterans and the elderly.

Ending birthright citizenship is just a dick move. Just tear down the state of liberty while you're at it.

Old white man scared of brown people. Can't imagine why.

I'm not legitimizing it. I'm sure as fuck not promoting it. But I do want to understand it even if his sycophants won't.
I don't care to understand it. I don't need to understand my enemy to kick them in the teeth.
Ready to shoot em in the face?

I dig. But it's going to be shittier than that. Our lily white asses will barely feel a thing at first.

There will be riots, for sure. But I'm thinking about the shit show my grandchildren are going to have to contend with and what I can give them before I'm taken out in the pilot episode.
You don't understand my outlook. I have nothing. The second the oppression starts in earnest is the second I get militant. I'm not going to sit around and wait for them to come for me.

The American Academy
Under the plan I’m announcing today, we will take the billions and billions of dollars that we will collect by taxing, fining, and suing excessively large private university endowments, and we will then use that money to endow a new institution called the American Academy.

Its mission will be to make a truly world-class education available to every American, free of charge, and do it without adding a single dime to the federal debt. This institution will gather an entire universe of the highest quality educational content, covering the full spectrum of human knowledge and skills, and make that material available to every American citizen online for free.

Whether you want lectures or an ancient history or an introduction to financial accounting, or training in a skilled trade, the goal will be to deliver it and get it done properly, using study groups, mentors, industry partnerships, and the latest breakthrough in computing. This will be a truly top-tier education option for the people.

It will be strictly non-political, and there will be no wokeness or jihadism allowed—none of that's going to be allowed.

Most importantly, the American Academy will compete directly with the existing and very costly four-year university system by granting students degree credentials that the U.S. government and all federal contractors will henceforth recognize. The Academy will award the full and complete equivalent of a bachelor's degree.
State funded diploma mill that could potentially get turned into something good once Prager U is not developing the curriculum.

Please note the arbitrary state appropriation and redistribution of private university endowments.

every accusation is a confession.

The left isn't just as bad as the right. The left doesn't thing trans people shouldn't exist. They don't think gays are an affront to their fake god. They don't forcibly remove the option of abortion even in the event of life threatening conditions. They don't come up with policies that amount to Christian Sharia Law.

If you think anything the left does is even approaching that level of depravity I have beachfront property in Wyoming to sell you.

The left isn't perfect. The core of the party and it's older members are too beholden to corporations. They tend to over-engineer their solutions to problems to the point of ineffectiveness. But above all their problem is they're still taking the high road when they know the right will go as low as possible to get what they want.

The Republicans are the personification of the banality of evil. The Democrats just can't help shooting themselves in the foot.

These are not the same.

That's the thing. They won't come for you. Or me.

They're going to do mass roundups and deportations and a bunch of people are going to get shot in the process, but there ain't going to be any jack booted thugs coming to your or my house until it's time to foreclose.

Think Demolition Man

You and I will will be singing cartoon jingles and passing joy-joy feelings while we're abiding by the verbal morality statute.

Nobody on this board will be in the sewer with Edgar Friendly. Not even Pete.

I am not right, don't support Trump. Only GOP members I can marginally tolerate are Rand and Massie as they have some Libertarian leanings (or at least talk a good game). I also don't give a frog's fat ass about the gheys or trans people. Do whatever the fuck you like in the privacy of your own home (everyone is an adult & consents). I don't feel a month of gheyness is necessary, nor parades or school boards that encourage teachers to basically keep the parents out of such issues. And I sure as fuck ain't going to be held hostage / told I need to be an ally to less than 2% of the population because "they were born in the wrong body" and now I need to use some made-up pronouns. Sorry, not sorry.

TLDR: Identity politics bore me and are nothing more than rage porn. Sure it maybe because of different reasons but both establishment parties are evil and hate you. Hate 'em back.


Edit: I don't have any delusions of grandeur. I am confident I can hold my own (for a while) against a bunch of rednecks / few gang members that have a handy-dandy switch $ drum magazine on their Glock 19. But if one Special Operator comes a knockin'.... it is going to take longer for him to decide the interesting and fun way to unalive me than it will to actually do it.
