The Klartext Landfill for Absurd, Ignorant, and Deplorable Posts VI

Um, she's right. The Democratic Party is not Marxist-Leninist. She's also completely right about Adam Smith who did not propose some social Darwinist Ayn Rand/Paul Ryan style system and openly called for things like universal health care and labor unions.

But she doesn't even make a gesture towards democratic socialism. And the fact she uses Adam Smith, who was a laissez-faire economist that are every Republican's wet dream, to justify her defense of neoliberalism is a slap in the face to any leftist in the Democratic Party.

She needs to retire, or else I want a primary challenge.

D66 this time around, but I would probably "usually" be a VVD voter, and I'd be receptive to their campaign.

I'd only need a three-minute conversation about their views on Israel with you to have you vote VVD.

Why are all European parties terrible

Don't know why you wouldn't support the VVD. They're not even softly euroskeptical.

The same reason that (in a much more extreme example) I suggested a few years ago that if I lived in Greece I would consider the KKE; sometimes when you get really terrible people entering the legislature (literal outright Nazis in Greece, for instance) and casting a vote against them rather than for anything in particular is most important, it can make sense to vote for the polar opposite party, even if you disagree with them on some or a whole lot of things. ND would be my "default" vote in Greece, certainly, and I like Kyriakos Mitsotakis enough that I'd probably go back to them in 2019, even if in the 2015 elections I might've cast a protest vote.

Also, I'd obviously only even consider protest-voting KKE because of the cordon sanitaire that ends up in Greece; the impossibility of them ending up in government is why I consider them an acceptable protest vote. If it looked like someone was considering negotiating with them, or they started to gain some support to the extent that that looked unavoidable, I'd withdraw my support immediately.

The first part is true, though. If you have a negative social (or economic) score, you cannot call yourself a conservative.

Assuming we'll hold economic scores to the same test?

That is literally what I said.

I generally like RINO Tom, but this is just awful:

Even before Trump, most of them were pretty terrible fits for the Republican Party of today. They should just join the Democrats (where their heart belongs) and quit bragging about how voting for Clinton (whether it is in 2016 or 1996) was the only morally acceptable thing to do and that every Republican voter in 2016 is a Dixiecrat, racist or populist. They also seem to have this strange idea that the Republican Party was literally perfect in the age of Bush and appreciated the values of small government and conservatism back then, which is simply not true.

LOL

Anyway, FFs, much better than the rubes who voted for Trump.  Can't wait until "Trumpism" - to the extent it means anything, haha - is discredited.  Trump was a last stand for people like Eharding and TN Vol, and the future of the GOP is gonna be a LITTLE less White trash, friends.

What a bigot.

[Santander]

Tom didn't say anything wrong.

Of course you would say that.

[Santander]

Hahaha at the ungrateful Europeans  hating us. The fact is if we didnt defend them for free , Europe would be bankrupt with the exception of the EU. Oh ya without the US defending them during the cold war , they would be a colony of the Soviet Union. I now think all countries in NATO should have to spend 2% of their gdp on defense or we should not guarantee to protect them.

I don't even know where to begin with this post.

[Santander]

In us terms it's probably mild to extremely liberal. In world wide terms it's center right.

You do realize most of the world's population lives in countries where SSM is illegal, right?

You realize Hillary Clinton would be a far right candidate in many countries.

[Santander]

Sadly, my reaction was, "Oh thank god it was a drunk driver and not an Islamist terrorist who would be Trump's Reichstag Fire."

[Santander]

I don't necessarily agree with Famous Mortimer's posts, but I will say that the truth cannot be racist.

[Santander]

Bronz isn't hiding it anymore:

Beshear is a good man. A good white man.

He edited it real quick.

What's the problem with this? He just stated a fact.

[Santander]

His Senate seat belongs to Colleen Hanabusa, he's not a real Senator in my eyes.

I'm sure you can figure out who he's talking about pretty easily.

It's true, though.

[Santander]

BRTD is seriously a fascinating study in the possibilities of liberal totalitarianism. Don't play with fire, folks, or this could be an entire country someday. I dread to think of what the redshirts would do to countless communities such as mine when they ravage the countryside in a few years.

Don't worry. BRTD will be shocked when he tries to assemble an army of red shirts when 90% of Generation Z are standing against him on the side of the brown shirts ready to kick some commie ass for the greatness of preserving white America.

Don't quote yourself in your signature.

Is that against the rules?

[Santander]

If it is taught in an elective class yes but not in a science class

All science classes should be electives, except for math. I do agree that evolution should be taught in science classes.

The only required classes in school should be math, post-classical European history including the secular study of Abrahamic religions, and civics. Why is teaching Darwinian evolution to every student a good thing?

Math classes are totally different then science classes in high school . In college I agree science should be an elective but not in high school.

Required classes to graduate should be

Math till Algebra 2
Three years of science
One year of Goverment
One year of US history
One year of a world history class of student choice
3 years of writing classes
One year of personal finance
Two years of shop/engineering class

Another beep boop special. Just pull random numbers out of thin air and put it in a sentence.

No wonder he used a random number generator to generate his username.

[Santander]

Oh puhhh-leeezz Santander there is nothing wrong with that post. Stop using this thread for benign posts you simply don't like.

I'd put your entire posting history here if I did.

[Santander]

Oh puhhh-leeezz Santander there is nothing wrong with that post. Stop using this thread for benign posts you simply don't like.

The idea that every student, regardless of their interests and talents, should be forced to take engineering for two years is pretty stupid imo.

There are certainly grounds to dispute his numbers but it seemed unreasonable to put the post in a thread dedicated to absurd/deplorable posts. IIRC Santander has, or at least had a habit of doing this.

Tbh, it's kind of unreasonable that more of beep boop's posts aren't in here.

[Santander]

I'd hold my nose and vote for Oprah, then pray for her to die in office so that at long last we can have President Sanders. No matter how uninformed she is, I honestly don't think she could be worse than Trump. I figure the worst case with Oprah is she's stunningly incompetent but smart enough to listen to her advisers, unlike Trump.

Why Oprah would pick Sanders or Sanders would agree to run with Oprah is something that's beyond me though.

Wow.

Nov 4 1980-Nov 4 1986- The rise of conservatism and an era where we finally reversed decades old economic policy of taxing  and regulating . This was also a rare republican president who emphasized  economic converstism over social conservativism and even Foriegn policy conservativism . This era ended when democrats took back the senate in 1986 .

what's so deplorable in that.

I would put it more in the absurd category, as Reagan did not de-emphasize social issues in any way.

And, if anything, he was the first modern GOP president to bring social issues (as we know them today) to the foreground.

[Santander]

This guy is a parody, right?

Hate TYT.

This is Deeply Disturbing™©

skip

Should be banned, along with his sock account.

[Santander]

Guys, I think NSV deleted his account altogether. RIP HP.

No, he's systematically deleting all of his posts as we speak.

[Santander]

We'd probably run into similar problems if it was renamed after Famous Mortimer, so how about a poster just bad enough to deserve the title but not bad enough that he'd risk being banned. Maybe Santander.

I think one reason it's not already named after me is because people know I'd like it it.

[Santander]

Even for Wulfric this is ridiculously stupid:

Don't take my position on one issue and try to assume my position on others.

I support contraception, including plan B and the morning-after pill. Under-18s should have to have parental permission to get plan B/morning-after, unless a judge says otherwise - just as would be needed for virtually anything else they want to do at that point in their lives. But no absolute minimum age is needed here as the only reason to take this stuff is to prevent pregnancy - and if no pregnancy exists, no harm done.

And I wouldn't try to ban anal homosexual sex, nor would I have done so in years past. Homosexual​ Sodomy and Fornication are an affront to God, yes, but has no possible effect on society as a whole, and therefore falls within a reasonable definition of separation of church and state.

I actually think McDonald's​ should be closed down by the government for having a mission to make people obese, and I do not eat there myself, period. I'm dead serious here.

-------------------

As far as television goes, this really gets into why I am cautious about transgender treatments in children. It's easy for kids to look at something on TV, think it's cool, and apply it to themselves, and this is no different. You should only get transgender treatments if you are actually trans - if you are a cis person who has taken trans treatments, then you have transformed yourself from the right gender to the wrong gender, worsening your state of health when you realize this many years later. And I know what you're about to say - "But society is mean to transgender people! No one would ever think it was cool!" - but that argument is getting weaker each day as society is getting more and more accepting of transgender people each day, increasing the chances for it to be viewed as cool, especially to children, who are often easily convinced of all sorts of things. By waiting until age 12 or 13 to allow transgender treatment, even with parental/court permission, we ensure that the child has a good amount of understanding regarding the purpose of the treatment, and greatly increase the chance that they are in fact trans and aren't just going through a phase they got from television or wherever. It's a pretty common sense policy.

That's enough word salad to solve world hunger.

[Santander]

Why would an agent have trouble getting women? Why resort to prostitution? Sickening.

To be fair, this is a misconception about prostitution that is quite widespread in most Anglosphere countries, and especially the US.

[Santander]

wonder if blocking Estrada because of his race was worth it for chucky?

With all due respect, if you think nuking the judicial filibuster had anything to do with Estrada, you're crazy.

What a great day for the unborn! 

Let's hope there will be another retirement/vacancy or two, so we can make more forward progress.

It has always amused me how so many Republicans think their party leadership actually wants to see abortion banned.  Weakening decisions like Roe vs. Wade and Planned Parenthood vs. Casey?  Sure.  However, they're just using you guys [pro-lifers].  They'd never actually ban abortion because of the huge political backlash that would occur across the country (especially in wealthy suburbs and exurbs and yes, that includes the arch-conservative ones).  Even without Kennedy or without Ginsberg, if there was a real chance of the Supreme Court doing a complete 180 on abortion, Roberts would switch.  This fight was decided a long time ago. 

You're right that Roberts (and Gorsuch) can't be fully trusted to actually overturn Roe, but to pretend the republican party doesn't want to ban abortion is silly. Remember the attempts to pass Personhood? Remember that OH would have a heartbeat ban, if it didn't have to be vetoed for the sake of strategy? (no sense starting a roe challenge until there's a chance to win at SCOTUS) I know you guys tell yourself lies about republicans so you don't have to think about your abortion not being there for you, but that doesn't change the fact that republicans want to make abortion illegal.

Oh, abortion will always be an option for people.  Technology is a beautiful thing.

I know this would be politically unpopular, but, once abortion is illegal, I would support a travel ban to any locations where elective abortion is legal to stop any Americans from being aborted and put pressure on those governments to ban it too.

lmao

(People like you are why I favor abortion rights, fwiw)

come on now it's perfectly understandable that the product of a failed abortion would have some pretty radical views on the matter

This is absolutely disgusting.
