I don't really get this then, guess that is just my mindset.

2018-11-16 16:26:59 UTC

When I have a believe I would want society to be shaped according to that belief, for others to think in the same way/

2018-11-16 16:27:06 UTC

Because I think my beliefs are the right ones.

2018-11-16 23:36:47 UTC

Hey is it just me, but ever since a couple months ago, the fascist join rate has declined and now all we get are socdems

2018-11-16 23:39:13 UTC

not a lot of fascists here yeah

2018-11-16 23:40:46 UTC

Used to be, although fascists really don't like Trump anymore

2018-11-16 23:41:20 UTC

plenty never dis

2018-11-16 23:41:22 UTC

did

2018-11-16 23:41:47 UTC

Jewish family, support for Israel, and the fact that hes a globalist

2018-11-16 23:41:58 UTC

or has at least been one

2018-11-16 23:42:17 UTC

to me he comes off as a fake

2018-11-16 23:42:30 UTC

he's taking the reigns to make a quick buck

2018-11-16 23:42:55 UTC

You think Trump's doing this for himself?

2018-11-16 23:43:29 UTC

He's already rich as hell, too old for it to make as much sense as it would to others

2018-11-16 23:43:41 UTC

no such thing

if he's doing it all for other people, he sure has a funny way of showing it lmao

2018-11-16 23:44:10 UTC

The concept of having a 1 billion dollars

2018-11-16 23:44:30 UTC

You can't put it into thought

2018-11-16 23:44:47 UTC

if you get that much, there's no point in stopping

his reemergence into politics was on birtherism, and if he wasn't doing that to boost his own profile, i'm not sure who else he was doing it for lol

2018-11-16 23:46:48 UTC

To be honest if he wants to make himself richer, I don't have a problem with it. Even then, his net has actually declined since he took office. Frankly he'd probably be making more if he didn't even run

Yeah, probably, and he's said himself he didn't expect to win

everybody thought he was gonna lose then start a TV network

he didn't, so instead he just has people stay at his DC hotel lol

2018-11-16 23:48:24 UTC

Idk where he said he didn't expect to win, but hey I wouldn't blame him either. The polls were retarded - they were polling Dems

2018-11-16 23:48:27 UTC

98%?

2018-11-16 23:48:34 UTC

or something in the 88% range

2018-11-16 23:49:03 UTC

Either way, it failed pretty bad

I mean, FiveThirtyEight did always maintain that there was a sizable chance of a Trump win

going into the election, I think they predicted a 1-in-3 chance

2018-11-16 23:51:38 UTC

yeah lil

2018-11-16 23:51:40 UTC

lol

2018-11-16 23:51:52 UTC

the 90% Hillary wins shit was hilarious

2018-11-16 23:55:57 UTC

but back to the part of him running for president to boost his net worth. I find some flaws with a claim like that. I believe Trump was in his 40s when he was asked if he'd run as President. He said he hope he doesn't have to and if the country keeps going the way it's been going, he might have to. That was around 30 years ago, and the point is still valid. The country was going downhill

2018-11-16 23:56:38 UTC

But EVEN if he did do it for the net worth, so far it hasn't worked - and I find it unlikely, as long as he keeps doing what he is doing I'm fine with it

he was also echoing the rhetoric of other politically involved businessmen at the time like Ross Perot, who was saying exactly the same stuff

so it wasnโ€™t a unique statement or prophetic or anything

plus: publicity! one of Trumpโ€™s hallmark moves is a โ€œmaybeโ€ or โ€œweโ€™ll seeโ€ which is definitely what his calculation was saying that in, what, the early 90s?

2018-11-16 23:59:33 UTC

Publicity was a tremendous thing with Trump's badass moves in business, actually in business he'd promote it even before the project was fully developed

2018-11-16 23:59:49 UTC

He's been doing that since Manhattan

2018-11-17 00:02:15 UTC

although I personally don't think Trump did it for personal gain, especially most of his hotels and buildings are in the liberal shithole, New York. It probably wasn't too good of a backlash running the way he did

2018-11-17 00:03:08 UTC

It really doesn't make too much sense to me, also the guy is like 70 years old. He'd be making more off if he didn't run, ever since he took office he's lost 800 million?

2018-11-17 00:06:06 UTC

You can bust a lot of politicians' balls for being greedy as a main motive, you can't bust a businessman who already has it all

2018-11-17 00:11:14 UTC

Why canโ€™t America be more like Australia

2018-11-17 00:11:41 UTC

Weโ€™re mainly centrist. The parties are slightly left leaning and slightly right leaning, and beliefs barely ever clash

2018-11-17 00:12:16 UTC

You don't see Australia having the best economy in the world do you?

2018-11-17 00:12:40 UTC

True

2018-11-17 00:12:53 UTC

Bur everybody is respectful of the opinions of others

2018-11-17 00:13:27 UTC

And I value that over economy. Plus we have enough land to be self-sustainable

2018-11-17 00:13:46 UTC

So are we lol

2018-11-17 00:14:04 UTC

We export like 80% of the food we make

2018-11-17 00:14:27 UTC

Tbh I just like my country more

2018-11-17 00:14:37 UTC

We donโ€™t freeze to death every winter

2018-11-17 00:15:16 UTC

it doesn't snow in the south

2018-11-17 00:16:10 UTC

The parties are slightly left leaning and slightly right leaning?

2018-11-17 00:16:16 UTC

Sounds like nobody there has balls

2018-11-17 00:16:26 UTC

ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

2018-11-17 00:16:38 UTC

We donโ€™t have clashing

2018-11-17 00:16:47 UTC

lmao

2018-11-17 00:16:53 UTC

Makes passing new laws easier, and nobody cares who gets elected

2018-11-17 00:16:58 UTC

That doesn't mean anything

2018-11-17 00:17:04 UTC

Labor doesnโ€™t get elected? Big deal.

2018-11-17 00:17:07 UTC

Nobody cares who gets elected? Isn't that a problem

2018-11-17 00:17:11 UTC

Not really

2018-11-17 00:17:23 UTC

Because most of us have the same beliefs

2018-11-17 00:17:42 UTC

So you live in a perfect homogenous society

2018-11-17 00:17:52 UTC

Like I match to 70% of laborโ€™s policies and 70% of liberal

2018-11-17 00:17:57 UTC

Not exactly

2018-11-17 00:18:06 UTC

We still have idiots like Pauline Hanson

2018-11-17 00:18:12 UTC

But they arenโ€™t popular

2018-11-17 00:18:22 UTC

You see here in America, you'd classify as liberal as hell

2018-11-17 00:18:39 UTC

Everybody hates them, and the people who agree with them are too small to make a difference

2018-11-17 00:19:25 UTC

The only bad thing here is that the government isnโ€™t doing shit about the drought

2018-11-17 00:20:04 UTC

Half of the country is in drought, and nobody is getting support

2018-11-17 00:20:17 UTC

Frankly I could give less of a shit on what goes on in Australia, no offense. Here in the US, we got some reworking to do

2018-11-17 00:20:33 UTC

mainly because our country is so big and important, everybody wants a piece

2018-11-17 00:20:34 UTC

While our government is chilling in the ACT, there are people losing their livelihoods

2018-11-17 00:20:38 UTC

Yeah

2018-11-17 00:21:25 UTC

doesn't Australia have a weak currency

2018-11-17 00:21:26 UTC

The ranger is the only one who wants to do anything about it

2018-11-17 00:21:43 UTC

and these libtard commies want to open up our borders, add in genders that are made up on the daily and raise our taxes through the roof

2018-11-17 00:21:43 UTC

Yeah, we do. But everything else except like two things is good

2018-11-17 00:21:44 UTC

it makes me embarrassed to be aussie when the military here banned men for a while

2018-11-17 00:22:09 UTC

Oh yeah, forgot to mention how badass our military is

2018-11-17 00:23:07 UTC

Our economy, the fact that our pm canโ€™t hold a position for more than 2 years and that Victoria is one of the only states that can still prosper during drought because we have a desalination plant and our state has ocean on two sides

2018-11-17 00:23:19 UTC

gg

2018-11-17 00:23:27 UTC

how much is gas?

2018-11-17 00:23:50 UTC

Idk

2018-11-17 00:23:53 UTC

"What's gas"

2018-11-17 00:23:57 UTC

lmao

2018-11-17 00:24:02 UTC

how much is petrol

2018-11-17 00:24:05 UTC

you sperg

2018-11-17 00:24:13 UTC

I donโ€™t know how much it is because my cars are on diesel

2018-11-17 00:24:29 UTC

it depends on where you are

2018-11-17 00:24:32 UTC

aight

2018-11-17 00:25:04 UTC

Diesel here is like 150-160c

2018-11-17 00:25:18 UTC

Petrol is cheaper
