I love the democracy vs. republic talking point on the conservative side. It’s not new, I first encountered it in 2005.
“We’re not a rectangle you idiot, We’re a square!!!” -every conservative dumbass
I’m not a godamn hamburger, I’m a fucking cheeseburger you librul
I didn’t see it until later, but yeah, it’s been around for years. It crops up every now and then from right-wingers trying to test the waters for being overtly anti-democracy. What I found scary was how much more common it got, and at higher levels. I remember a fucking senator repeating that line.
I also use the square vs. rectangle analogy. Granted, we’re not going to convince fascists acting in bad faith, but it plays to an audience.
You assume that any GOP is going to see the whole clip.
Remember Paul Ryan? He was pushing a video of him ‘destroying’ then President Obama.
Ryan’s clip showed him asking Obama a question and Obama looking mildly perturbed.
What the clip didn’t show was Obama answering every point.
Remember Paul Ryan?
You mean “I listen to Rage Against the Machine and lack the self-awareness to realize that I am the machine” Paul Ryan?
I remember Paul Ryan, especially his last days
All the republicans/conservatives have as arguments are empty one liners that project their fears and at the same time reveal who they really are.
Because front line Republicans are just parroting what they heard from their leaders.
Source: I used to be such a Republican
How’d you get out? (Congrats btw)
It’s a bit of a long story and probably would reveal a bit more than I’m comfortable with.
TL;DL: I started to realize that the Christians I was hanging around didn’t actually care about the political issues they said they did.
2016 was the first election where I didn’t vote Republican. 2018 was the first election I voted Democrat down the line. 2020 was the first election I donated, supported, and campaigned for a democratic candidate (Bernie).
This was like seal clubbing. Anyone have the actual full debate? I’d like to skip through it.
It’s absolutely not worth it but someone linked below.
It’s the typical scream over the other person “conversation” that unregulated conversations turn into when facts don’t align with reality
Thanks, I’ll skip it then. It was funny though.
Link to the full debate on YouTube.
Thanks, I didn’t think to link it.
Oof almost two hours. I’ll have to bookmark and come back to it when I’m not tired.
“What cities are the most expensive to live in?” THE ONES THAT PEOPLE WANT TO LIVE IN, PAL, THAT’S HOW CAPITALISM WORKS
This is pretty much it. They latch on to keyword definitions and don’t bother to educate themselves about the topics on discussion.
Well, that made my day.
I bet half of the people still voted for the republican.
I bet half haven’t voted yet because they don’t believe in mail in votes
*in swing states
Why is that clown dressed like a football player announcing a dui?
Love his attitude here lol wish more people did that
Who is this legend?
Black beard guy is a Kick streamer called Destiny who was banned from Twitch for asking redneck militias to mow down BLM protesters because he thought BLM was hurting Biden’s poll numbers.
Blonde beard guy is Owen Shroyer who works for Alex Jones and went to prison for January 6th.
Uncensored America is a litigation troll that gets student Republicans to invite them to hold a debate, and then announces they’re inviting PR disasters like these two so they can sue the university if they try to back out.
Wow. Everything about that is gross.
It looks like the shitbag kicker on the KC Chiefs but I could be wrong
Ragnar Lodbrok ass looking mf
No one brought any point proving that the more expensive cities have greater economic output though.
One guy says it then references Uganda.
Everyone needs facts
I want a list of the expensive cities and what they bring to the table economically per capita
Cheers, means very little to me though being Australian and having never heard of most those places haha
This is why I never give people sources. See also:
So… you asked for sources, then wave it off admitting it means nothing to you?
Embarrasses himself with his inability to stop interrupting
Don’t lie don’t get interrupted. But also this is literally the part of the debate FOR that. You’d know that if you watched it instead of bitching like a baby
Can we say the same about Trump or is this (D)ifferent
