on his firearm legislation all I've heard him say is basically pampering to the democratic party while still being vocal that the right to bear arms is important

so more like banning specific guns that have a bad rep (which we all know won't make an actual difference) and things like background checks and training which I honestly don't mind because he brings up this point where you need a drivers license to drive a car so it kinda makes sense to make sure people have some basic training before owning a firearm

I've also seen this channel <https://www.youtube.com/user/invisiblepeopletv> and while many of these people are in their situation because of their own choices many of these people have become homeless from losing a job or a relationship where a small UBI would keep their heads above the water

there's real science behind this part as well, when you worry about how you'll pay your next bill you have a mindset of scarcity that gives you something like a 13 point lower functional IQ

if yang wins china wins

xD

no see that's the good part

because he's from taiwan

china thinks they own taiwan but usa recognizes it as a country

if anything yang will be on the US side in the war against china

but wat does taiwan think?

well he's not *from* taiwan, but his parents were

taiwan is fighting china to be an independent country

they don't recognize that china owns them, they recognize their own country, as does a number of other nations, but china doesn't

uhmayzin

how many times have you been to taiwan exactly?

and you're not still living in the same country you grew up in? 😛

you should remember this, it was in the news that trump called the elected taiwan president when he won

news...

which caused backlash from china

like on tv?

how is everyone this mornin?

honestly you should still watch the news, you just need to ignore all of their opinions and always assume that whatever facts they're presenting they're also omitting equally important facts that would counter their opinions

if you just watch the same network you'll never get the omitted stuff ofc, and sometimes it's literally just _all_ made up but if they show footage of the president talking about it I'm not going to assume it's doctored deepfake (at least not just yet)

xD

i get my news from jese

jesse

the way i see it, if anything important happened, someone will tell me

im too busy to watch news

not enough good news

anything on t.v is entertainment unless it's an emergency broadcast. 😮

if you know what your enemy is lying about, that will tell you everything you need to know about the truth

You may need a license to drive, but you don't have a right to operate the motor vehicle. I'm pretty firm on that whole "shall not be infringed" portion of the 2nd amendment.

Moreover, with liscensing they know if you have, and to what degree you have. I don't want that.

yeah I do get that

it's a shame he's a dem really, you can tell he's not passionate about infringing on gun rights but he just clearly has to pamper to the party for them to take him seriously

but at least _for the dem party_ it's really not the worst it gets

The Democrat party has gone wild. I didn't used to be this way. It's unfortunate that folks are forced to pander to tyrants just to get a seat at the political table.

It didn't used to be this way*

politics in general didn't used to be this way

fallen state politics
