No, simply because he doesnt have the influence that AOC has.

This, plus unlike Gaetz, AOC isn't a racist lunatic, and she actually has influence.

AOC isn't antiwhite?

This thread went exactly how I expected. Deflections, calling it neoliberal propaganda, and pretending it’s not a big deal. Y’all act just like Trump supporters.

Democrats like you are worse than the batsh**t crazy Republicans who yelled BENGHAZI for 4 years.
Um.... people are actually being indicted and going to prison for Russia’s interference in the 2016 election. You are clearly not living in reality if you think this is comparable to Benghazi which resulted in none of that. And I’m not a bitter Hillary bot either. I just don’t blow smoke up Bernie’s ass and do not think he’s all that great. Y’all can’t debunk or defend so you call it propaganda, deflect, or plug your wars and ignore it. Just like Trumpers.

No, they are going to prison for tax evasion. Israel did more to interfere with the 2016 election than Russia. And the hypocrite Clintons interfered for the guy who chose Putin as his successor in 1996. This whole Russia thing was invented to deflect from the Democratic party sucking, go after progressives,  and to start a new cold war to benefit the military industrial complex.

That’s just dumb and ridiculous, why not a $100 minimum wage ?
Those stupid politicians have never run a business in their entire life, they are just a buch of crazy demagogues who are ready to destroy millions of small businesses just to mark points with their base

Anyway it’s not the job of the government to say how much employers should pay their workers, a minimum wage is contrary to a free market economy. It should be abolished immediately.
The most ridiculous thing about this stuff is that low wages workers who will be fired and replaced by robots will be African Americans and minorities, in other words the democratic base will suffer the most if the minimum-wage is doubled.

Ok how much do you think my parents make a year.



Judging by your posting history I would estimate about 60 to 70 billion dollars annually. It would be foolish to have such right-wing economic views if it were any less.

Christian schools have every right to hold students and faculty to Biblical standards of conduct.  That's why they're in business.  I'm sure that if a student came to a Christian school and recruited for Stormfront, they'd be expelled, and that's within the perogative of a Christian school.  This school will not allow for homosexual behavior or advocacy of same.  That's their perogative. 

The legality of gay marriage may well be a settled issue for my lifetime, as the legality of abortion appears to be.  The acceptability and moral correctness of those issues is most certainly not settled, however.  At least not on Earth.  These issues ARE most certainly settled in Heaven, however, and certainly not in the manner of Supreme Court rulings. 

I'm not going to say that the Bible condones homosexual activity.  Because it doesn't.  Scripture says what it says, and if I'm dissonance in the Echo Chamber, so be it.

Didn’t you want the Dems to find the wall just like a week ago lol
Yeah, but not this way. Native Americans got more out of the Trail of Tears. I don't see any kind of demands on the Dems' end here.

An auspicious debut from another one of our maroon avatars.

Democrats will cave soon and accept the wall over some package of priorities, after all, they looked at 2016 and said they need to get more racist to win.

I have lost brain cells by reading through this thread. Many of you(you know who you are) are calling those on the right snowflakes. Harassment goes both ways as well as sexism. Women can be sexist towards men, blacks can be racist towards whites, and the LGBT community can be heterophobic to those not a part of it. This should be a two way street, not a double standard! Imagine the outrage if a commercial of a product designed for women stated that women need to stop accusing men of sexual assault! An entire mans life can be ruined from one accusation. It is absolutely pathetic that people are supporting Gillette for insulting and harassing nearly half of the entire population. The boycotts have arrived and Gillette is going to get what they deserve!

White boy did nothing wrong. He just stood there and smiled while Native guy tried to intimidate him. Still, liberals on this site freak out like he did something. They hate white people just for existing.

Whites are some of the most oppressed groups in western society.

Full-on anti-Catholic bigotry here:

As far as I can tell, the Roman Catholic Church has made three main contributions to American life:

(1) Caused needless human suffering with unreasoned opposition to family planning of any kind.

(2) Physically and mentally destroyed untold numbers of children through sexual molestation and predation by priests.

(3) Established private K-12 schools that do not education the neediest of children, but rather provide a safe space for privileged, racist whites. This is particularly true in cities in Southern and Border states.

The results of the third were on full display during this incident.

Saddened to see that Kamala Harris's and Mazie Hirono's messages of hate have spread.

If you read the provisions of the bill, it's clear that it's more than just a generic support for "Ukraine's territorial integrity". The bill included specific provisions to greatly empower the President, the State Department, and the Defense Department to intervene in the country in order to 'stabilise' their economy and further enhance security operations with NATO, which is about the last thing that needed to be done.

If he doesn't adequately address this sort of nonsense on the campaign trail, IDK if I can vote for him in the primary.  Hashtag isolationism is the last thing America needs right now.

Not exactly sure how this equals isolationism, but I can assure you that non-intervention in the Ukraine is far superior to the belligerence that U.S. foreign policy has demonstrated since the Second World War

Protecting The Ukraine from Russian aggression is exactly what we need to be doing.

Why?

You circa 1938:

Person: "Protecting the Czechs from German aggression is exactly what we should be doing."

You: "Why?"

*All while thinking you are deep and just Question More*

Bruh, it's not about thinking I am deep. He asserted that protecting the Ukraine from Russian aggression is exactly what we need to be doing, and I asked him to back up that claim. Simple as that, really. Since the post I responded to gave my own reasons for why I would not have voted for the Ukraine Support Act (including that it includes intervenes in the Ukraine's economy and furthers American ties to NATO), and he didn't even attempt to give a rebuttal, I think I am justified in asking him why meddling in the Ukraine is any of our business.

And believe it or not, yeah, we shouldn't have "protected" Czechs from German aggression, either. You don't fight imperialism with more imperialism.

First off, it's just 'Ukraine', thanks, and has been since 1917. Ironic to talk about 'imperialism' if you don't even understand the regional context enough to know why this is important. Secondly, in what world is sending a sovereign state the resources to defend itself 'imperialism'? Or is this just another case of self-described 'leftists' calling anything the West does 'imperialism'? There is a moral imperative to help other free peoples in need of defense against tyranny, and in this case it is very cut and dry, given the legitimate government of the country requested the aid to defend against foreign aggression.

The first line of the Wikipedia article on Ukraine says this:

Quote
You must be logged in to read this quote.

Sometimes countries have different ways of referring to it and yours is not always the only correct in every context ever. Now, on to your main point. Once again, I must refer back to my original post which looked at the nature of the Ukraine Support Act more thoroughly. Bringing the United States closer to NATO, and in turn NATO closer to Eastern Europe and to do the Ukraine (even the historically Russian parts of it) is not only a violation of several historical agreements, but will objectively make the situation in Eastern Europe worst by bringing American red-lines to Russian borders (which is obvious by President Obama trying to economically and politically cut of Russia). This is the regional context, and it has a long history. The United States has shown itself to be the greatest threat to world peace by far, and when America brings her red-lines to Russia, it is absolutely an imperialist advance. Why do you think it would be anything else? The U.S. has a desire to maintain its hegemony, just as any other world power has done, hence military exercises in the Baltics, etc.

While we might have a "moral imperative" (whatever you think that means) to declare our support and promise refuge to victims of tyranny, to act as though this should extend much beyond this in the context of the Ukraine is foolish. I also find it very hypocritical for a nation like the United States to act like it has the "moral imperative" to do anything, considering Putin's annexation of the Crimea is child's play compared with the American invasion of Iraq, easily the greatest international crime of this century. At least the Crimea is historically Russian: what claim does the United States have to, for example, Guantanamo Bay?

Keeping Ukraine neutral is the best thing to be done. It keeps peace with Russia, and won't continue dangerous proxy wars.

Quote
You must be logged in to read this quote.

Ah yes, because being against the above act must obviously mean I want to throw myself into the art of Putin. Well, say whatever you want about Putin—think he’s the worst monster since Hitler—the Russians are not going to accept the move of the Ukrainian government to join NATO, or even the European Community.

Of course, but I will admit my initial response was argumentative in nature. If you don't want to get embroiled into a debate, we can agree to disagree and I won't push the matter any further
