No, most of the debt is owned domestically by the people

Red dress? That sounds like some lgbtxyz woke extreme leftism. Everyone knows the first amendment shields me from any criticism for the words I say and allows me to openly push my flavor of Christianity.

/s obviously.

Mostly because the US has to actually develop and research new weapon technology and China just copies everything so they don’t need to spend as much.

何？！

It’s not about how people vote. It’s about getting people to vote. Emotionally charged people are more likely to vote/volunteer/donate etc.

I’m talking out of my ass by the way, I have nothing to prove any of this.

My pet theory is that this was said specifically to destabilize the US. As others have said, this is not new. China has been saying this for a long time. But 100% the GOP is going to call Biden weak for not shutting Xi down and instead saying the US supports a "One China Policy " without any critical thought as to what the dynamics are.

This is to fire up the right wing base.

I was gonna find a fun obscure trope to link to but then I looked up and an hour had passed

I thought it said Transformers and I was like “why do they avoid mirrors?”

No appellate court would side with Trump. It’s for his base.

The geese are there to take back the rings.

I live in a very red part of Florida. They’ve all been pretty nice to me. Of course, I’m white, my baby is blonde haired and blue eyed, and I’m in the military. They usually get pretty surprised when I open my mouth and start spouting crazy commie stuff like Trans Rights are Human rights.

I worked with a guy that was a hard-core conservative, like just shy or real far-right talking points. Anyway he told me he doesn’t watch the news. Not that he only watches fox news, I mean he doesn’t watch any news at all. He gets his information from Facebook and tiktok

How dare you, my mother was a saint!

I had an honest to God reasonable discussion with a very conservative Christian man. We talked and I told him about the major problems I see today (this was before the current demonization of LGBT). Each one, like gun violence, I asked what proposed solutions the right-wing had and he conceded that every position they had was reactionary to a proposed solution by the left. I basically told the guy that I’ll vote for the group that has some kind of solution, even a less than ideal solution.

I have a lot of respect for that guy. I don’t think his position has changed but his willingness to hear me out was refreshing.

Not me. I know binary. There are 10 types of people.

Narrator: He did not.

It’s like the crime version of Buy, Borrow, Die.

There are no moral absolutes, no foundational beliefs, no core values at the heart of Conservative ideology.

I disagree and you kinda touch on it later in the post:

If you view the world through this lens, any fight, any political topic, whatever it is you want, you are righteous.

That is the core value. It’s absolutism. They are good people therefore whatever they do is good. Or at least not bad. Abortions are bad, but if they get one, like you said, it’s out of necessity. Not because they wanted to. Not like the degenerate left, who does it for fun on a whim.
