JacksonNought replies on Nov 11, 2020:

@PopeBoboXII white-knighting is just a term to try and dismiss anyone's opinion. She clearly moved on to more important things with her degree, so she did use her knowledge for something. What happened to the Conservative notion of pulling up by one's own bootstraps? And it was a one off meme comment, but one I consistently see as an attempt to put AOC down. And I was inquiring into what the deal was.

JacksonNought comments on Nov 11, 2020:

We're talking about Trump's tax returns here, right?

JacksonNought replies on Nov 11, 2020:

@parsifal you mean the ones saying: The NY Times obtained Donald Trump’s tax information extending over more than two decades, revealing struggling properties, vast write-offs, an audit battle and hundreds of millions in debt coming due. and Trump’s Taxes Show Chronic Losses and Years of Income Tax Avoidance and After a years-long battle to obtain Trump’s tax returns, the New York Times has revealed that the president paid just $750 in federal income taxes in the year he took office. According to the newspaper, the self-proclaimed billionaire paid no federal income taxes in 10 of the last 15 years, largely due to significant financial losses and various methods of tax avoidance. and More than five years into his life as a politician, President Donald Trump still has no good answer on why he continues to refuse to release any of his past tax returns. Like, none. ... so all of this basically shows that he still HAS NOT released his taxes, as he promised he would. He just keeps making up excuses. However, as part of various lawsuits, which Trump has tried to block every step of the way, the NY Times was able to obtain certain information, such as the fact that Trump only paid $750 in taxes when he entered office, and owes hundreds of millions of dollars to *someone* which is coming due soon. At the debates he was asked about the $750, and denied it, saying he paid hundreds of thousands. If he released his taxes, he'd easily clear this up.

So we all know, the leftists have a bit of a wet dream thinking that Trump will refuse to leave the ...

JacksonNought comments on Nov 11, 2020:

So basically what you are saying is Trump will have his conservative majority SCOTUS overrule the will of the people and hand Trump the presidency, in an act of completely authoritarianism?

@PopeBoboXII it sure seems like an obsession, since it is a very common insult among Conservative detractors. I'm not really sure why being a bartender has anything to do with her intelligence? Plenty of people have to work their way through college, they can't all be born with a silver spoon in their mouth. She graduated cum laude from Boston University with a degree in International Relations and Economics, so she knows what's she's doing.

JacksonNought replies on Nov 11, 2020:

@Lightman who is insulting or name calling? Certainly not I. I'd love for every legitimate vote to be counted. It doesn't seem like that is what Trump wants though, or his supporters. They only care about Trump votes. That's why you have groups chanting "stop the count" where Trump was in the lead, and other groups chanting "count the votes" where Trump was behind. There's also a difference between making sure all votes are legitimate, and Trump / Rudy making wild baseless killings that all of the votes for Biden are illegitimate and involved dead people and massive voter fraud.

JacksonNought replies on Nov 11, 2020:

@johnlondon people don't hate America just because they didn't want Trump to ruin it anymore than he has. People like you are what's wrong with the country today, completely vilifying anyone who disagrees with you as being evil and wanting to destroy America because they have different opinions. I live in PA, the GOP legislature said the mail-in ballots could not be counted until election day, and only after the in-person ballots. Philadelphia is a major blue city, and as we know most mail-ins were votes for Biden since his supporters actually took the pandemic seriously. So it makes perfect sense that slew of votes for Biden would come in once the mail-ins started being counted. We've also had a postal worker in PA, who originally claimed to know about fraud and had Republicans point to his story as evidence, recant once he was put under oath. There is just no evidence of fraud in the election, nothing that would change Biden's lead in the state of PA. You can have a million Giuliani press conferences in front of a sex shop, it won't change that.

JacksonNought comments on Nov 11, 2020:

Four people are not the "totalitarian left".

JacksonNought replies on Nov 11, 2020:

@SpikeTalon I guess my question is: is the "totalitarian left" your colorful term for the left-leaning side of the political ideology / Democratic party, or is it a qualifier of a small fringe group of extremists left-wingers? I guess that is important because it changes the perception of labeling the actions of four random people as to their part in an official government party or the ideology shared by tens of millions. As I said already, I can find examples of right-wing representatives acting in extremely authoritarian methods - you have some recommending the rights of black people and women to vote be taken away, some recommending Trump ignores the election and declares himself president despite the will of the people (some even saying he should do it for life), some recommending imprisoning Trump's political enemies or even executing them nearly for having different opinions... and I have had horrible words thrown at me and even death threats from people on the right merely for being Jewish and an atheist. I wouldn't describe this way of thinking for the entire conservative right-wing, just some fringe wack-jobs.

JacksonNought replies on Nov 9, 2020:

@Lightman false narrative. She observed that Trump sycophants started distancing themselves and deleting their history of enabling and defending him. She was merely saying they shouldn't get to pretend that they fought against his insanity, and they should be called out for the hypocrites they are when the time comes. Nothing about re-education, canceling, anything like that. For the party who consistently says "fuck your feelings" and defended Bannon when he called for Fauci's beheading, you sure are whining now that the shoe is on the other foot.

Porn Is Misogyny [youtu.be]

JacksonNought comments on Nov 6, 2020:

How is porn any more misogynistic than religion (specifically the Abrahamic ones)?

JacksonNought replies on Nov 9, 2020:

@WarmPotato when did porn stars do that? They are extremely well regulated and do constant testing and age verification, at least now that it is legal and not pushed underground. There was a campaign against forcing condoms in production, but that's a different matter. But how does that relate to misogyny? How about addressing the rampant misogyny in Christianity, Judaism, and Islam?

How does this equate to sleeping her way into office? How does this lead to slut-shaming nicknames as if she slept with multiple people in exchange for favors? Perhaps we should reserve our judgement - it's not like she slept with a porn star while her wife was at home with their newborn baby. I'd love to hear your opinion on Jared Kushner getting his role in the current administration - I guess he slept his way there too? What fun nicknames can we give him?

Lies about Obama being gay, or Michelle being a man. Attacks on Obama's children. Hey, remember 8 years of right-wing pundits, like Rush, calling Chelsea Clinton ugly? Remember when Mitch McConnell said his most-important goal was to make Obama a one-term president, over any actual governing or attempt to work for the American people - he only cared about partisan games? How about non-stop attempts to appeal the ACA? All of the frivolous Benghazi hearings? W Bush having the 2000 election handed to him by his brother in Florida? Trump hasn't had it any worse than any other president, he is just a bully who cannot take what he gives out. He has the thinnest skin and the worst case of projection I've ever seen. When have we ever had a president whose entire platform consists of making up childish nicknames for people? Especially ones that apply to himself. Groping, crooked, sleepy, mad, etc.

I would say the amount of people voting for Biden specifically as part of some guilt / ally vote is practically zero. Your question has undertones of "race traitor" mentality with white people who don't support Trump.

JacksonNought replies on Nov 6, 2020:

@Joehlert11 well I would say that for-the-community thinking is more common among Progressives than Conservatives. For example, a wealthy Progressive could see how a Trump plan would make them even wealthier, while hurting the less-fortunate, and decide for the betterment of the country as a whole they should support Biden. A Conservative might be more selfish and decide to support Trump because they benefit and screw everybody else. That isn't guilt or fragility, it is altruism. In an extreme example, if candidate A said all people should be free, and candidate B says any non-white person should be enslaved, is it purely virtue-signaling if a white person supports candidate A? Of course not. Also, don't forget that white people can still be part of minority groups which see Trump as a threat, such as religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, etc.

No one says you must vote for Biden for the drug measures to win - you can vote for Trump and vote for the drug ...

JacksonNought replies on Nov 5, 2020:

@pbuck0145 please point out where I brought up a strawman. I did nothing but present facts about the ballot measures. Krunoslav here is making the argument that drug decriminalization is bribing people to vote Democrat, and also making up some ridiculous notion that apparently Republicans are "more responsible".

Why was the popular vote so close in the US presidential election?

DAN_STL comments on Nov 5, 2020:

Who gives a flying s*** about the popular vote? Only the coastal liberals. It's mutual masturbation.

JacksonNought replies on Nov 5, 2020:

@Admin you cannot just take California out of the equation. Sure, if we did, Trump would have the popular vote. But then if we take away Texas, Biden has the popular vote again. There are pros and cons to both systems. The electoral college is good in that it gives all votes a say, but then you basically put the voice of a couple of hundred thousand people equal to / over a couple of million. Coming from an ideology that continuously cries about LGBTQ+ rights because they are a minority of the population, you'd think they would prefer a majority vote. The Senate system is equally ridiculous, as you have 62 Senators representing a fourth of the US population in small states, and then 6 Senators representing a fourth of the US population in larger states.

Remember that gut feeling you got when that second plane hit the twin towers and you realized what ...

You are talking about Trump's meltdown and attempt to throw out people's votes, right?

Just watched a vid where the woman was explaining they were being handed a sharpie - not recognized by the scanner. Dems are being handed ballpoint pens which are recognized

JacksonNought replies on Nov 5, 2020:

@parsifal the problem with a lot of Internet news is they piggy-back off of each other. One source says something, and then a couple of sites will report based on that original source. Then it grows exponentially as it becomes a daisy-chain of reporting that goes back to the one singular, potentially false source.

What about the President with his piss-colored cotton candy hair, fake spray tan, ill-fitting clothes, etc? Maybe when we don't have a clown representing the Republican party, we can start addressing Democrats' looks.

@johnlondon ah, so you admit Trump doesn't joke around, he really did fall in love with dictators and suggest to inject bleach?

@DuvergersTrap Trump runs the biggest echo chamber in history. He and his supporters are the ones engaging in rampant voter intimidation and fraud.

Whatever the result, two things are clear: 1.

JacksonNought comments on Nov 5, 2020:

On point number two, you think the race would be a lot more cut and dry if the Democrats actually did what you said. Simple explanation, they didn't.

JacksonNought replies on Nov 5, 2020:

@RidgeRunner based on current reports, *every single* county in Oklahoma and West Virginia is red. Not one went blue. Ever single state is a mix of blue and red, except those two. That seems fishy. Maybe they need to investigate the pollsters and Republicans there.

The latest line being run here now... Bernie predicts outcome. So Bernie predicted Trump would be a bad loser... well that is in his personality. Was Hilary a good loser....? Noooooooooooooo Were the Democrats good losers? Definitely Nooooooooooo... What has Bernie got to say about them ...

@TheMiddleWay I know, crazy right? His own words from a different comment thread on this topic: > "not me I rarely name call"

Corruption in sunny state of California is marvel to watch.

JacksonNought comments on Nov 5, 2020:

California is a heavy-blue state. So it isn't much of a surprise that Dems will win even with minimal campaigning. That doesn't mean there is anything shady going on. In the current election, Oklahoma and and West Virginia did not have one single blue county. Should we investigate fraud in OK and...

JacksonNought replies on Nov 5, 2020:

@Krunoslav uh huh. And Trump admits to corruption and the right-wingers shrug.

@Lightman ooh so close. You were *this* close to actually having me side with you from confusion of whatever 2FH is going on about, but then you ruined it with the childish name calling. Wait, I thought you said you didn't name call?

@Lightman you live in Australia. You have no dog in this race, and have no personal experience with how people in America are affected by Trump and his policies. Maybe you should butt out and focus on your own country? America first, isn't that Trump's motto?
