There’s so much ideology mixed in with that job. I can totally understand that they see the people they’re deporting as criminals and literal scofflaws, and laws should be enforced, etc. What I don’t understand is the fervent belief that this is making the country a better place in some way.

Er.....no the best anime to live action Hollywood has done is Speed Racer.

The problem is what does this really do? He is not trying to start a regime change, that would be foolish even for trump. If he’s killed Russians, that creates tensions that can lead to nuclear war. We are unaware about the death count of this attack. It is a pointless attack that doesn’t do anything.

He thinks Freedom means you have the choice to do something about autism or not so if you can’t afford anything to help your child with autism, then you’ve made the free choice to not do anything

I wonder if he’s one of those people who feel that if they could overcome the hardships they’ve suffered, then everybody else can do the same, not realizing that a lot of their own success involved luck and help.

That’s how I read it, too. “I’m turning my brain off because I don’t want to actually think about what you said bc it conflicts with my worldview and makes me uncomfortable and I don’t trust what liberals say anyways! God Bless!!!!!”

Did someone say Objectivism?!!

thats why its more important now than ever before for people to spread awareness of my No Pin Ribbon Campaign, rsg!

He supports free-market solutions for people with autism. Like...uhhhh...private companies taking the place of medicaid and disability assistance, I guess. Or churches doing it or whatever or...look, just shut up and read Atlas Shrugged, ok? It explains it all in there.

When you fail to separate yourself from your ‘team’ (sports, politics, almost anything, etc.), you...can’t objectively step away[...]

The totally sincere and philosophically well-grounded conservative principle that local government is good when it means “states vs. fed” but bad when it means “cities vs. states”, endures. We should all be inspired by their commitment to this totally non-hypocritical point of view.

Maybe this is why the first guy to run a marathon succumbed and died.

This says it all. AM is the portrait of decorum and decency in the face of inappropriate back rubs and branded fragrance “mavens” and a mentally impaired expired Fanta. I wish those assholes so much pain and embarrassment I almost feel bad about it.

Could there be a better example of this astute observation?

The best part of capitalism is when shitheads accidentally waste their money in the funniest of ways.

That’s how propaganda works. You never stop relaying the message. Facts are not important to propaganda. The most important thing to propaganda is the reality that you want to create.

This entirely. Trump is such an effective communicator because he has the bulletproof, impregnable confidence that can only come from being a sociopath. He speaks with such certainty, he never umms and aahs, and the words just come flying out of his mouth so that - if you’re not actually listening to the words…

Or I could take the $75 a month I’d pay to this insurance (my deductible is 7500, because NY state marketplace insurance is terribly expensive), and get a better plan. I’d take that money and put it into a HSA, but plans on the exchange are ineligible. Everything about our insurance system is rotten, but I won’t blame…

“Humanity is a dumpster fire.”

Exactly. That we have to buy insurance to cover our insurance shows just how bankrupt the whole industry really is.
