Sure is a lot of propaganda flying around in here.
There is no Left that holds power in this country. What we have is a Center Right Party (Dems) & a Far Right Party (Reb's). Most people that a-line with a party are just repeating talking points. Manufactured by the people that own the parties & control the media (last i heard 6 large corporations)
What a conservative use to be.
Today this guy could not get a chance to run in either party.
This is what happened to the country. Has more to do with economics than being a Liberal or Conservative. If you think about it most of us can be a little of both Liberal or Conservative. But then you do have a few hard nuts on both sides.
Inverted totalitarianism is a term coined by political philosopher Sheldon Wolin in 2003 to describe the emerging form of government of the United States. Wolin believed that the United States is increasingly turning into an illiberal democracy, and uses the term "inverted totalitarianism" to illustrate similarities and differences between the United States governmental system and totalitarian regimes such as Nazi Germany and the Stalinist Soviet Union.[1][2][3][4] In Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt by Chris Hedges and Joe Sacco, inverted totalitarianism is described as a system where corporations have corrupted and subverted democracy and where economics trumps politics.[5] In inverted totalitarianism, every natural resource and every living being is commodified and exploited to collapse as the citizenry is lulled and manipulated into surrendering their liberties and their participation in government through excess consumerism and sensationalism.[6][7]Comment -
To many of you guys get into the political theater of it all. You watch Fox or MSNBC which really only tells you lies or half of the story. Both will put out an official government narrative. Its not real News, its infotainment.Comment -

This is how politically unaware some of the Trump nuts are. Same goes for the Obama & Clinton hardliners.

This is 100% correct as you get along much better as a whole society..
You guys are probably ok with your government?
or
You all understand that you have no say in how your gov operates, so you'll just ignore it and live your own lives?
Either way you guys are not divided by 100 different political and social beliefs, like the US,am I correct?
Hollywood is the root of all US media outlets today that started with the Kennedy vs Nixon debate...
They discovered the immense power TV had over shaping the public opinion to any mold they wished.
They have been full throttle ever since......Comment -

I don't even respond to that asshole. He is a far right talking point if there ever was one. There is a reason someone fell off the deep end and starting shooting these no good fukers. I'm just stunned it doesn't happen more. Like Biden said in the debates to that douchebag Ryan "get out of the way if all u want to do is stop everything from moving"Last edited by Thor4140; 07-06-17, 10:22 PM.Comment -
Do you think he would have been on board with safespaces, trannies receiving hero medals, participation medals, BLM, stomping on the flag, pussies protesting everything, slamming police? Probably not, but thanks Obama and the left wing panzies.Sure is a lot of propaganda flying around in here.

These libtards saying "why are you worried about entitlements and welfare when we spend a lot more on wars and bailing out Wall Street?" is a favorite tactic of the left. Switch the subject and because it isn't being talked about act like your opponent supports it. I nor any conservative I know is happy about Wall Street bailouts and exorbitant exec. salaries after so many people were ruined. Since this is a gambling forum let me make another gambling analogy:
Those wall street bailouts and the current situation in the Middle East are like splitting 2s against a dealer 2 with a $1000 bet out. Probably not a great idea but you weren't sure what to do in the situation and you don't usually bet that much. Entitlements and the welfare state which conservatives despise so much (and lefties think is insignificant compared to other expenses) is like betting $25 every hand with a strategy of never hitting a 12 or above. Sure that rare $1000 hand where you split 2s was a big swing, but that $25 strategy has no chance of success and it's a sure way to ruin your bankroll eventually.Last edited by dlowilly; 07-06-17, 11:58 PM.Comment -
