i agree

2018-05-08 01:16:51 UTC

Plus it's better, I think for us to strengthen our borders, since it really puts America first. That's probably the most important thing to me. We're all Americans, we all love our country, and we should all be willing to put its interests above our own personal desires. But since our nation is made up of our people, we should be willing to help each other out as Americans. What do you think?

2018-05-08 01:17:32 UTC

Of course we should strengthen our borders, if you don't have a border, you don't have a country

2018-05-08 01:17:45 UTC

That's the biggest thing that got me into Trump. I got sick of coward politicians selling America out to foreign interests.

2018-05-08 01:18:19 UTC

also fuck all the globalists that want to take down the borders

2018-05-08 01:18:31 UTC

build the wall!

2018-05-08 01:18:43 UTC

I agree completely.

2018-05-08 01:19:48 UTC

What do you guys think about foreign policy? Specifically, Trump's military action in Syria

2018-05-08 01:20:27 UTC

Hello

2018-05-08 01:20:39 UTC

Main reason why a lot of the um Right hated that action was because people believe it was fake

2018-05-08 01:21:06 UTC

@Deleted User hello btw

2018-05-08 01:21:36 UTC

That's the biggest thing I was iffy on. Real or not I just don't think we should be attacking foreign countries in the middle of a civil war.

2018-05-08 01:22:00 UTC

I don't know if thats why people are concerned

2018-05-08 01:22:11 UTC

I think people are concerned because of Russia, but I don't think they will do shit

2018-05-08 01:22:19 UTC

Putin just needs to act tough because he's a dick

2018-05-08 01:22:50 UTC

If they were smart, which I'm assuming they are, they won't retaliate against a super power

2018-05-08 01:23:28 UTC

brb

2018-05-08 01:24:14 UTC

I don't think they will, and they haven't. I just think Assad is better than the alternative. He's been taking care of ISIS, plus he's a secular leader who protects Christians. He may be a dictator, but better than a terrorist state imo

2018-05-08 01:41:45 UTC

k back m8

2018-05-08 01:50:42 UTC

Cool

2018-05-08 01:50:58 UTC

So are you a Christian?

2018-05-08 02:11:49 UTC

yeh u could say that

2018-05-08 02:17:50 UTC

Alright Ben

2018-05-08 02:18:15 UTC

Mind if I send you a link to a recruitment server

2018-05-08 02:18:31 UTC

Sure

2018-05-08 02:19:32 UTC

Alright

2018-05-08 02:21:24 UTC

just to ask bois, for the letter N, should I use nationalist or NRA. I'm doing acrostic for Republican btw

2018-05-08 02:21:30 UTC

can't decide

2018-05-08 14:09:40 UTC

I say nationalist

2018-05-08 22:04:29 UTC

Hey guys how do you feel about backing out of the Iran deal?

2018-05-08 22:06:23 UTC

Mixed

2018-05-09 02:14:35 UTC

Yeah I'm just trying to get a feel for how everyone feels about it. I feel like their are a lot lies being portrayed

2018-05-09 02:14:49 UTC

Fuck Iran

2018-05-09 04:03:56 UTC

It's impossible for any of us to know if the deal was any good.

2018-05-09 04:04:05 UTC

I'll trust the master dealmaker to make a better deal though

2018-05-09 04:11:39 UTC

Hopefully its a treaty this time and not a deal. Because the deal Obama proposed wasn't official at all. Obama knew he couldn't get away with a treaty because a treaty requires Congress and House of Representatives. Therefore, there was no official regulations at all

2018-05-09 07:10:00 UTC

Mhm, exactly.

2018-05-09 07:10:18 UTC

The great thing is, if liberals hold it up, then all their crying about ripping up the deal backfires on them

2018-05-09 07:31:14 UTC

@Donaldus Triumphus Wait how is it not official in what way? I thought Obama was within his executive power to sign it. Just like Trump was within his executive power to end it.

2018-05-09 16:42:29 UTC

Executive orders can be gotten rid of by the next presidemt

2018-05-09 16:42:47 UTC

Acts of congress need another act of congress to nullify it

2018-05-12 13:40:16 UTC

You guys hear about what's happening in Nicaragua right now?

2018-05-12 13:41:08 UTC

Students are getting shot up by the government military forces.

2018-05-12 14:00:42 UTC

they take fee payment seriously over there

2018-05-12 18:35:57 UTC

fee payment huh

2018-05-12 21:19:19 UTC

My lovelies. Weโ€™re going to take over da world.

2018-05-13 21:24:44 UTC

Silently but deadly

2018-05-14 04:55:52 UTC

Half of Americans did not vote for either party. Both parties were voted for by a 1/4 of the population individually. We pretend this is a problem when, in actuality, both parties want to maintain this status quo. Having a population politically apathetic makes the bourgeois command of the system easier to maintain.

Trump has a low approval rating and it would be not different under Clinton. Both are Liberal politicians with complete disregard for the population. Have you even heard of the kind of crap Trump's daddy did?

At least China can boast an optimistic future and population with their Socialist market economy, grassroots system (allowing common participation in the runnings of the state), and plan to fully eradicate poverty by 2020 as is the purpose of the current 5 year plan. America can not boast this.

The Communist Party of China does as it says.

The Democratic Party and Republican Party say a lot of crap and do nothing.

80% of Chinese trust their system. 50% of Americans didn't even vote.

Why is this?

The legitimacy of the Chinese Communist Party is dependent on serving the people and guiding the nation to prosperity. Of the falling poverty rates, almost 800 million of that can be attributed to Chinese Socialism. The legitimacy of American parties depend on lobbies and protecting the interests of the rich.

Why and how is Trump any different from any other American politician? Why should I consider him the international representative of the American people when only 1/4 of us even voted him in?

2018-05-14 04:58:02 UTC

I mean who else is it going to be? Clinton lol

2018-05-14 04:58:19 UTC

This would apply exactly the same to Clinton.

2018-05-14 04:58:40 UTC

They are both Liberal politicians.

2018-05-14 04:58:55 UTC

Rightists.

2018-05-14 04:59:25 UTC

if its not the president then who would be the international representative of the American people?

2018-05-14 04:59:32 UTC

the ambassador?

2018-05-14 05:00:16 UTC

I guess he technically is lol

2018-05-14 05:00:25 UTC

Our will does not exist if only 1/4 of us said it.

2018-05-14 05:00:43 UTC

The will of the people does not exist in America.

2018-05-14 05:01:09 UTC

We have no legitimate international representative.

2018-05-14 05:01:55 UTC

The hearts and minds of the people are not of the American government or American system.

2018-05-14 05:02:18 UTC

I dont think 3/4 voted for Clinton

2018-05-14 05:02:30 UTC

50% didn't vote.

2018-05-14 05:02:37 UTC

well thats their damn fault lol

2018-05-14 05:02:40 UTC

they had their chance xd

2018-05-14 05:03:03 UTC

Most of them were busy working or felt betrayed by the system.

2018-05-14 05:03:16 UTC

busy working? nah

2018-05-14 05:03:33 UTC

Betrayed by the system? Perhaps

2018-05-14 05:04:13 UTC

But they did get a chance to vote for a 3rd party. Maybe if that 50% gained up on Trump and Clinton they actually could have elected a 3rd party

2018-05-14 05:04:39 UTC

Would a third party be any different.?

2018-05-14 05:05:03 UTC

depends what you're talking about

2018-05-14 05:05:04 UTC

The Libertarians are the next biggest ones and they are of the same caliber as the Republicans.

2018-05-14 05:05:27 UTC

I mean there are left libertarians, not as much tho

2018-05-14 05:06:10 UTC

Russia's elections happen on a sunday when all work is out and no one is busy.

2018-05-14 05:06:29 UTC

America's on work days.

2018-05-14 05:06:37 UTC

yeh but its not DURING work

2018-05-14 05:06:42 UTC

Yes it is.

2018-05-14 05:07:00 UTC

wym, its at night

2018-05-14 05:07:10 UTC

unless if you are a loser that works the nightshift at mcdonalds

2018-05-14 05:07:40 UTC

If it's at night, that is just as bad.

2018-05-14 05:07:56 UTC

It is during the day though.

2018-05-14 05:08:00 UTC

Alabamite.

2018-05-14 05:08:59 UTC

Depends where you were voting I guess? I know the east coast went first at around like 5

2018-05-14 05:09:14 UTC

actually more like 6

2018-05-14 05:09:15 UTC

I'm from Alabama.

2018-05-14 05:09:24 UTC

so when did you vote m8

2018-05-14 05:09:47 UTC

I didn't personally vote.

2018-05-14 05:10:11 UTC

I actually heard you could vote 32 days before the actual election

2018-05-14 05:10:16 UTC

We live right beside the church where you are supposed to anyway so we are hardly under time contraints.

2018-05-14 05:10:56 UTC

I mean you dont have to vote on actual election day

2018-05-14 05:11:07 UTC

you can vote like weeks prior

2018-05-14 05:11:16 UTC

on the weekend too before election day

2018-05-14 05:11:44 UTC

This would show that people were refusing to vote consciously.

2018-05-14 05:12:23 UTC

TBH I think a lot of the people that didn't vote didn't even know you could vote prior

2018-05-14 05:12:28 UTC

but sure call it that

2018-05-14 05:13:13 UTC

Mate, people aren't going to vote to preserve the system that gave them their problems anyway even if a new face (party) is in power removing hard fought benefits and aiding the rich.

2018-05-14 05:13:50 UTC

hard fought benefits, like what

2018-05-14 05:15:27 UTC

Across the world, hard fought benefits by labor movements are under attack now. Labor is weak and the bourgeois state is screeching in glee. The NHS in Britain for example.

2018-05-14 05:16:06 UTC

I thought we were talking about the US

2018-05-14 05:16:25 UTC

I am but it isn't isolated to the US.

2018-05-14 05:16:45 UTC

The conditions which cause political apathy exist throughout the west.

2018-05-14 05:16:59 UTC

***oh yeah the west is a piece of shit***
