RusAD , to politics in Jon Stewart’s ‘told you so’ about Biden was the scolding we needed

If it's the only option, then the democracy is already dead and voting for Biden is pointless. Democracy entails that the government represents the will of the people. And you're suggesting that because some old fart decided to cling to power, everyone should stop demanding that their will is represented and start kissing that old fart's ass. "That's the only person you can vote for to preserve democracy" is a self-defeating statement...

RusAD , to politics in Jon Stewart’s ‘told you so’ about Biden was the scolding we needed

One has tried to destroy democracy and the other will just give up the democracy for the first one to destroy and won't fight for it.

To be clear, the best thing to do is to vote for a democrat in the election, but it would be much better if said democrat isn't Biden

RusAD , to Housing Bubble 2: Return of the Ugly in Don't give them ideas.

And take a wild guess about why they don't have that money

RusAD , to Lefty Memes in That's the only reason.

Ok, so you do admit that opposition to gay marriage is based on hate. Good.

And the discussion was about the fact that the vast majority of conservative policies are dictated by fear. Have you forgotten?

RusAD , to Lefty Memes in That's the only reason.

Can you give me one singular reason to oppose gay marriage that isn't based on hate?

RusAD , to Lefty Memes in That's the only reason.

Yeah. There's a lot of things that conservatives hate, that's what I was saying since the beginning. And I didn't even mention the hate of non-christians, for example, or for socialists.

And if you support some things but not the others, you're still supporting policies based on hate, so my point stands

RusAD , to Lefty Memes in That's the only reason.

Well... if a conservative:

  • supports gay marriage
  • doesn't believe in ROGD or the notion that people become transgender because of social contagion
  • is okay with sex education that includes homosexuality
  • supports transgender athletes
  • supports transgender people using bathrooms according to their gender
  • is okay with drag shows and doesn't believe they're automatically unsuitable for children
  • doesn't believe that people of color are inherently more violent/stupid/dangerous/filthy/etc
  • supports schools in teaching even the unsightly parts of the country's history
  • supports immigration
  • supports diversity and inclusion
  • doesn't believe that young people are lazy ungrateful brats
  • doesn't support patriarchy
  • defends women's rights to abortion
  • believes that government should spend more money on helping homeless, drug addicts, disabled, orphans, etc

Is this person still a conservative?

RusAD , to Lefty Memes in That's the only reason.

Yeah, modern conservatives are ridiculous. Haven't you heard?

RusAD , to Lefty Memes in That's the only reason.

How am I generalizing, beyond pointing out the defining cause behind the movement?

RusAD , to Lefty Memes in That's the only reason.

Oh, yeah, you should be hateful of intolerance. If you aren't, you're hurting those who are getting hatecrimed by conservatives

RusAD , to Lefty Memes in That's the only reason.

I should be what? A conservative? No, thank you, I live in reality and I'm not scared of made-up culture war bullshit

RusAD , to Lefty Memes in That's the only reason.

Conservatives are much more hateful than any stereotype

RusAD , to Political Memes in Noah, get the boat

Nah. The accurate depiction would be like this:

Republican on top: "I drillled the hole!"
Democrat beside him: "If you vote for me, I'll plug the hole!"

Voters and non-voters together at the bottom actively solving the problem.
Non-voters: "I don't want to vote for this lazy ass"
Voters: "Noooo, please vote, or else Republican will drill more holes!"

(BTW I think you should vote to prevent more holes from being drilled. But Democrats don't do enough. Biden was a president for almost a whole term now. Did he ensure basic human rights for trans people and trans kids specifically nationwide? Did he ensure basic human rights of pregnant women nationwide? Did he ensure the safety of doctors performing reproductive care? Did he penalize Israel for committing genocide? Did he enforce proper accountability for police discriminating against minorities (or, in that case, for any wrongdoings)? Doesn't look like it to me. He did cap insulin prices for some, which is nice and a step in the right direction, but yeah, far from enough)

RusAD , to Ukraine in Explosions in Engels, reportedly near the military airfield.

Yep, near Saratov, around 700km south-east from Moscow.
