If you assign a higher moral burden to the pusher not the user, then of course one ‘doesn’t understand capitalism’.
Pete has NO CLUE how far left he is. It's spectacular.
Zero clue.
Government should directly control what we buy and what we read, government should control prices, and government should spend more but tax less...
My only nit is that Petey's philosophy, to the extent that there's any consistency at all, is more fascist than "left". But consistency ain't Petey's strong suit...
Literally nothing you just wrote is anything I agree with. It’s more evidence of how you mislead, deceive, lie, etc, to push narratives which comport with what you personally wish for but which have no basis in truth. Your post is like a hall of fame misinformation post.
Feel free to ask if you have questions. If you want just one, I believe the government should spend WAY LESS, and tax WAY LESS. But you think (or wish) I say otherwise. Bizarre.
And of course the new insult, ‘fascist’, appears. This has I gather replaced the previous ‘racist’, which replaced ‘homophobe’, which replaced ‘rape apologist’, which replaced ….
Personally I don’t call folks names like this. Oftentimes, projection is a strong reason others do. I wonder.
I don't remember someone calling you a "rape apologist", but if they did, that would certainly be interesting to see what gave rise to that. Homophobe, absolutely, you clearly are, repeated evidence. Fascist, absolutely. Those aren't mutually exclusive in the least, BTW. Nor is "racist".
I don't "know you" other than through your posts.
For instance, you post support of GOP politicians who drastically increase spending, no criticism of their increases. Claim anything you want, your posts of support for them when they spend is all we need to know about your hypocrisy.
I vacillate between thinking you are truly dumb and thinking you are purposely appearing to be so just to make others angry. Either way, your posts are offensive again and again and again.
Enough of you today...there's SO much to be joyful about in our country, I'm tuning you out.
I’m not sure anyone has told you this, but believe it or not, it’s possible to support a politician but not every one of his policies. If Mitch votes for Ukraine military aid and I don’t agree, I don’t by law abandon the guy. He might have good reasons. I might not. I might even criticize his decision. In the end though, he’s my guy because we share fundamental truths.
Is he now a fascist too?
squirrel; you've applauded DeSantis' spending, you applauded/ignored Trump's spending. You pretended that McConnell's/Trump's tax cuts weren't going to massively increase the deficit and national debt...but ohh my, "deficit and debt...bad!". Immense hypocrisy.
It's not that you can't disagree with a policy, you simply haven't done so despite tons of opportunity to do so...in fact, you applauded.
It's all about the team color with you, Petey..."fundamental truths"...hoo boy...
How have I ‘applauded Desantis’s spending’? By not agreeing with a fan that Desantis is causing economic chaos in Florida by increasing a baseline budget that’s small to start by 10%?! Ayfkm?
I don’t even know if I do applaud his budget. I don’t have the interest to read through it. I trust the guy. He’s conservative, a real one. The state has a $20+ billion surplus and AAA bond ratings. I pay zero state income tax. For the most part, I agree with him. I don’t agree with him on everything, but the bigger stuff yes.
I don’t qualify any of that as ‘applauding his spending’. I’d be willing to bet that if it was solely up to me, I’d probably chop 25%, but that’s why I’m not a politician.
As for Ron, he’s a real conservative, not a fake one. And his leadership skills are becoming better every week. What folks like you fail to note about Ron is his age (he’s 43); his upside is very very high. He’s growing into his role, with very little weaknesses showing. His wife is ridiculously talented as well.
And for me it’s absolutely not the team color. I think Adam Kinzinger is a moron. I was ecstatic to see Cawthorn lose. I’m not wild about Pence, Rubio, and probably half the R governors. What I know about most of them is they are most often better than the Democrat. Doesn’t mean I love my guys though. Doesn’t mean I hate the opposition; but it does mean I think they’re often bad for the country. Polis seems reasonable. Spanberger is solid. Manchin is solid. Sinema is solid.
