What's your most important issue today?

[gemini104104]

Going into the 2022 mid-terms, what single issue is most important to you? Could you give us some indication of why that issue is so important to you as well?

Here's the list I have to choose from:

Climate change / the environment
Jan 6 / Trump's involvement therein
Economy / inflation
Abortion
Supply chain issues--like unavailability of baby formula
Illegal immigration / border issues, to include drugs
Crime / police / punishment
Russia-Ukraine
Something else (please list it clearly)

Only choose one, the one most important to you.

The important issue, in my opinion, is for tRump, his criminal family and his fellow seditious and treasonous repuke co-conspires of insurrection to be indicted, charged, put on trial, convicted based on the avalanche of evidence against their rancid selves thus far and hauled into prison for the rest of their natural and despicable lives who wage war on democracy and anything else of a civilized nature. This atrocity at doing the bidding of foreign enemies and the devil to start with.

 

[Ross Dolan]

Let's start with defining terms:

https://www.dictionary.com/browse/r...y,right is more commonly called the far right.

Read that. I'm not going to post a lengthy quote from it.

These are some of the Nazi's actual actions and platform. Does any of this sound like the radical Right?

Instituted first smoking ban in history and worked to abolish use of tobacco.
Legalized abortion and promoted it for eugenics reasons in particular
Were very pro public transit and use of trains. Conducted large-scale public projects to build more of both.
Were pro-gun control
Were in favor of organic farming and small scale farms
Worked to eliminate all alternatives to public education and institute standardized national curricula.
Worked to eliminate all religion from government.
Instituted a generous social-welfare state to include universal public health care
Started large scale public infrastructure projects like the autobahn or Prora a government run vacation resort for workers
Took political control of unions and workers

I could list far more, but everything is in lockstep with the radical Left, not the radical Right. Even their racism is Leftist and in line with things like Critical Race Theory, Intersectionality, and Disparate Impact Theory. The Nazis had versions of all that.

In fact, I'd postulate that if the Nazis of 1930's - 40's Germany gained control of the US one of the first things they'd do is imprison or shoot every modern neo-Nazi they could find.

What makes them on the radical Right other than your ill-informed, worthless opinion?

You poor right-wingers have just fallen off the edge.

The neo-Nazis are the darlings of the American right...so you have to claim that the Nazis would hate the neo-Nazis.

The worthless, traitorous shit that invaded our Capitol during the insurrection were the product of the far left.

Up is down...down is up.

You clowns belong in a circus...not in serious discussions.

Indeed!

They are a pollutant on the Republic!

Tariffs cannot do shit to "cure" anything.

What you have done...is what you do so often. You have shot your mouth off...and now cannot back anything up...so you end your argument with a bumper sticker.

sure they can.

trumps tariffs were already "rehoming" american jobs.

please stop being a globalist (internationalist fascist) traitor to humanity.

I got your "globalist"...right heah!

If you buy anything made outside the US...YOU are a globalist. And don't try to bullshit us that you do not buy things made outside the US.

You have become so full of shit, AssWipe, I wonder how you are able to walk.

there are different degrees of things.

it's not all or nothing.

You are full of shit...and that is an all, not a nothing.

You realize that your "globalist" bullshit was easily destroyed...and now, rather than be a man and simply acknowledge that you have to give it much more thought, you are trying to bluster through your demolition by truncating.

Good luck with that.

So, you think that you, as a leading economic genius, will be able to get Americans to buy tee shirts at $6 apiece rather than $4 for three. And you will convince retailers to stock tee shirts that must sell at that former price in order to make a profit...rather than stock tee shirts that can sell at the latter price!

You have got to be fucking kidding me!

so it's all or nothing and it must be all.

we know that's how you tyrannical globalists think.

well fuck that and fuck you.

You are the globalist, AssWipe.

That is why you cannot answer the questions I've asked you...because if you do, you will show everyone here that you are a globalist.

Anyway, you think that American corporations should NOT export jobs (buy from) other countries...but should instead save the jobs for Americans.

So you essentially are saying that if a corporation can buy tee shirts made in another country; get it shipped here; and still pay one-tenth the price it would pay for the shirts if made here so it could sell the tee shirts at one-tenth the price and still make a higher profit...

...it should forgo that profit; forget about the customer's savings; buy the shirts here; and sell them at a vastly inflated price.

You are a fucking moron.

Now tell everyone you only have American-made products in your food. I'm curious if you lie or speak the truth.

https://www.statista.com/topics/3840/us-imports/
Imports place a hugely important role in the U.S. economy and in the lives of everyday Americans. In 2020, the value of imports of goods and services into the United States was 2.81 trillion U.S. dollars. The relative size of imports has grown in recent years, from around 10 percent of GDP in the early 1990s to 14.6 percent in 2019.

That is the case with goddam near EVERY item we buy from overseas. Shirts, coats, shoes, pants, shorts, computers, televisions, telephones, cars...goddam near EVERY ITEM.

It is not an outlier.

You just cannot acknowledge that international trade is what it is...BECAUSE IT IS WHAT IT IS. You are not going to "cure" (whatever the hell that is supposed to mean) anything with tariffs, because return tariffs hurt Americans just as much, if not more, than our tariffs help us.

There is a world economy...and assholes like you who think there is a magic "cure" are morons for thinking so. Ancient Rome had an international economy. Ancient China did also.

We should be figuring out how to get other countries to make as much stuff for us so we can buy it cheaply.

WE DO NOT NEED MORE JOBS. We need better ways to get money in the hands of people so they can buy the needs of life...without them having to toil for the money. We can get others to do the work...to do the jobs. And when the cost of letting them do it gets too high, we should get robots and machines to do the work.

WE DO NOT NEED MORE FUCKING JOBS. WE NEED TO FINALLY GET OVER THE IDEA THAT CREATING JOBS (CREATING MORE WORK) IS A GOOD IDEA...BECAUSE IT IS NOT.

WAKE THE FUCK UP.

I had octopus from Spain the other night.

I don't buy food 'made in China"; do you?

The democrats are the party of foreign gov'ts and foreign citizens. Americans last is the white lib motto.

Dude with you making leaps like that, you need to compete in The Olympics! You'd break all kinds of world records.

Why don't you support eating American food?

No, I don't buy food from China. Not even dog food.

Thanks for injecting RW racism into your post. It proves who you are.

There's still many textile mills operational here today...right now; Frank.

Most carpet is made in Dalton, GA, baseball bats are made in America. Where your sense of pride in America, Frank? Why are you so eager to outsource

manufacturing we should be doing, Frank?

Frank? There's no reason to buy any food that comes from outside The Americas; We have everything we need.

Why are you such a racist, DU?

Luddite thinking. Which is worth more money, Matt: A ton of hammers or a ton of computer chips? 2200 lbs of jeans or a Cirrus SR22 aircraft?

People who think the US, a nation of 330M people can turn the clock back to the Civil War when the US population was 25M are fucking morons. Americans need to improvise, adapt and overcome in the modern world if we want to be among the leading nations. Running and hiding in a closet is both a temporary solution and a losing strategy.
