so uhh

whats this server all about

nice

are people here big advocates for fascist governments?

just scrolled up lol

🇺🇸 USA🇺🇸

interesting

but they are mostly nationalists no?

a growing problem that im seeing now are globalist agendas allowing for open borders in countries in europe

its a scary thought that our cultures are disappearing

commies or not the politicans are for globalist agendas in the EU

France people arent having it for sure

makes me wonder how many other countries would also leave the EU

i suppose not

if they are advocating for globalism then theyre going about it the wrong way

or maybe the right way

depending on their interests

theyve certainly succeeded in giving themselves more power

i think one crackpot in the parliament spouted something about surrendering your rights to the EU

i think his name was guyver

guy verhofstadt

a one world government sounds nice but at the cost of nationalist identity and the benefit of the working class it just does more harm than good at this point

im not really a fan of conspiracy theories unless they make sense

it seems the wealthy ultimately benefit from this the most

they would certainly benefit from cheaper labor

they have the ultimate weapon

which is media bias

any form of criticism against unregulated immigration would lead to you being labelled a racist

its a pretty solid plan tbh

i suppose

but in this case its especially harmful

we need criticism to lead to better governments

either way the political correctness policing needs to stop

i have some MAGA friends that are afraid of being doxxed for expressing their opinions online

moderates dont have to worry much i suppose

i know some people that are critical of islam

they would defo lose their jobs

the ideal would be the free exchange of ideas rather than the censorship of ideas

most of the people that practice islam are refugees here in the US i believe

cant recall any area that openly practices islamic belief prior to the refugee crisis

as long as there is a 2.0 version of every religion then i don't have a problem with people practicing it

concepts from islam like polygamy and those whole black dresses that women wear are outdated in the western sphere

tbh idk

i grew up in catholic household

but i dont practice it

churches have become lenient now

more churches are becoming more tolerant of gays and atheism

basically infidelism

christianity as a whole continues to be expanded upon to fit western values

as for my religion i guess im an openminded person so i might be an agnostic theist

not necessarily constrained to a particular religion

the teaching of jesus have some merit in a western world

churches have improved since back then when they were scamming people

the concept of indulgences was prominent a few hundred years ago

people paid indulgences to lessen their punishment in purgatory

in countries that are like 90% catholic like the philippines they were definitely an issue

one of filipino national heroes like Jose Rizal even wrote a book that criticized this particular issue

that was the idea

but some churches abused that

yes

is there a grammar police somewhere here <:thonk:520003926381166597>

dont report me to grammar gulag for grammar dissent pls

<:ohno:520006095125872641>

political test result?

im all over the place

well idk about that

youre pretty balanced

how does that work

idk

i feel like being constrained to a specific ideology prevents you from being able to understand the ideas coming from other ideologies of the political spectrum

i suppose

maybe i just dont have as much real life experience yet

how can i understand economics without paying my taxes

im just a college student after all

its a good indicator of how policies in economics truly affect you

something some radicalized sjws might not understand

its pretty intimidating to think about to be honest

they have whole professors dedicated to economic theory

so it might not be as simple as it seems

ive noticed a lot of radicalized leftists seem to lack some basic knowledge of economics

not all leftists are like that

but the radicalized ones

the type that say things like "the world would be better without money"

without actually pondering why money exists in the first place

idk what to tell you

money is a medium of trade

you use money to get what you lack

money only has value if everyone agrees it has value

otherwise well go back to the old days

of trading rice for socks or something

yeah but you cant trade if you dont have rice or socks

thats why money is important

because it can be used by anyone

or rather its valuable to anyone

in order to make a trade you need to provide something that the other party lacks

but if you dont have anything that the other party doesnt need then a trade wouldnt be possible

hmmm

but then you lose a wife

what do you gain from that
