Thief_of_Crows , to World News in Trump will not give a penny to Ukraine - Hungary PM Orban

Oh, well if they got downvotes... Of course we can tell he's a bad person, he disagreed with the hive mind. And we can tell that he was wrong in all those instances because he got downvoted.

Best to just fully disengage from anybody who disagrees with the hive mind, to be safe.

Edit: InB4 this person writes exactly the same thing about me. Hey, why don't we just ban anyone who has negative karma and just be done with it?

Thief_of_Crows , to World News in Trump will not give a penny to Ukraine - Hungary PM Orban

Oh man I hope so, America needs to stop screwing around in other people's business. The only Americans who benefit from wars are those who sell the bombs. If Putin decides he's gonna be a real problem, fight him then. Otherwise we are just lighting all our money on fire (literally) for no gain.

Thief_of_Crows , to politics in Donald Trump won’t give ‘a penny’ to Ukraine if elected, Orbán says

Comparing Putin to Hitler is absurd. Get better comparisons. Not every war is a threat to global peace, and acting like it is minimalizes the things that actually are. Just because you dislike that he's trying to take a small sliver of Ukraine which voted to secede from Ukraine, doesn't make him after global domination.

It was weird, because some weirdo on the internet called me a Russian agent for no reason apparently, and then decided to change the subject entirely

I want to know why seemingly every lib is suffering from the same delusion. Though I guess the deflecting implies the rest of it was all deflection too? Like, it's such an absurd thing to believe, surely it's not an easy story to tell yourself about pretty much every socialist.

Is this a reference to america's actual foreign policy with a specific country, or just all of them?

Thief_of_Crows , to politics in Trump Claims He Will Debate Biden 'ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, ANYPLACE'

Oh okay, so you are just delusional like all the rest of them. Damn. I was hoping you might actually be able to explain why so many people fell for this moronic hoax. Btw, if you gave one single shit about backing up your outlandish claim, you'd already know I'm not Russian. Consider that there is literally nothing any random socialist will ever be able to do to convince you we are Americans. And you are actually just breaking out the deflection even still.

Ohh. Are YOU actually a Russian agent? That would kind of explain a lot. You are actually, for sure. I can tell by how stupid you seem to be.

Thief_of_Crows , to politics in Trump Claims He Will Debate Biden 'ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, ANYPLACE'

Do you actually think I'm a Russian agent? You sound actually serious, are you actually not just deflecting when your beliefs are challenged? Haven't I written like 10-20 paragraphs to you explaining exactly what my reasoning is? Why would a Russian agent ever do that? Is it worth Russias money to have an agent write 10-20 paragraphs to one single person who clearly can't have their mind changed? They would have been hitting you with endless logical fallacies and gone the "just asking questions" route. And even moreso, they wouldn't have wasted as much time writing as I did.

People on this site call me a Russian agent constantly, it is beyond absurd. I swear to God, Russia got so much more mileage out of idiot libs they don't even pay calling others shills, than they ever did out of anybody they actually paid to do it. They probably paid like 10 guys for a week 4 years ago, and then just let you guys run with it to make them appear to be everywhere. Now some other dumbass is going to see your comment calling a guy who's never even left North America a shill, and he will be convinced that I actually was, so then when he sees someone else making literally any argument he disagrees with, he thinks it's actually reasonable to think every socialist is a shill.

What I'm saying is, you're literally the one falling for russian disinformation here, and it is both hilariously ironic, and deeply troubling. Like, you saw another lib call a socialist a Russian agent, so now you believe they actually exist, and thus this other socialist, me, is clearly also a Russian agent. It's just turtles all the way down.

Please start questioning your beliefs more, liberalism is literally the stupidest possible belief system when you actually stop to think about it. The whole thing relies on an insane assumption that the status quo is as good as things will ever be. And also that infinite growth using finite resources is actually possible.

Afaik, Biden could not possibly have gotten out of Afghanistan in 2-3 months without actual moves that were made by the trump admin.

Idk how the drone strike issue lines up, but I mean, at least the ones trump did hit military personnel. Obama went after all of: an American citizen, a wedding, and a hospital. Trump could certainly be worse than Obama on that though.

It's not like I want to vote for trump. I'm just obviously going to pick the doofus con artist over the guy currently committing a genocide. I would vote for trump over Hitler, Stalin, and Pol Pot too, to be clear. Yeah, trump might just keep doing it. But he also might not. And we know Joe ain't gonna do shit to end it.

He supports Israel less fervently than Biden, who until a week ago was giving them "full throated support". The trump quote doesn't imply Israel needs to finish the job with our bombs. In fact, I would tend to key in on the word "finish". I think he wants to end it. I mean, consider how little we have all been talking about him comparatively ever since 10/7. He might just end the war so we all go back to talking about him 24/7. It's literally Trump's least favorite thing in the world: something not about him which he cannot profit off of. I'm not saying he's gonna suddenly do the right thing and just assassinate every Israeli politician and general, but I think Gaza will be in less danger if trump is president and the war hawks in DC don't get everything they ask for.

A coup isn't as bad as genocide. We survived the first one after all.

Thief_of_Crows , to politics in Trump Claims He Will Debate Biden 'ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, ANYPLACE'

Reading anything trump says and acting like it should make sense is dishonest. He talks like a person (a very, very weird person), not a machine focused only on sound bites, and as a result you get that nonsense. You and I talk the same way to an extent, we just don't have a microphone on us 24/7.

Thief_of_Crows , to politics in Biden Polling: A Guide for the Perplexed (and the Freaked Out)

Well, trump is a lot worse, but he hasn't committed a genocide. So that makes it pretty close but in Trump's favor. Why would trump increase aid to Israel? He doesn't stand to make any money off it. We know how trump operates. He just wants to make money and have people talk about him. He is probably the most predictable president in living memory. The reason I think he'd pull back on aid to Israel is that he got us out of Afghanistan, and was the first president in 50 years not to start a new war. Dating back to 1945, it's only him, Carter, and Ford. We obviously can't rely on his words, but actions speak louder anyway. So, why do I think it? It's what he did last time. To be fair though, he will most likely try another coup.

Explain why it is disinformation to tell people true facts, if you don't mind.

Thief_of_Crows , to politics in Biden Polling: A Guide for the Perplexed (and the Freaked Out)

Have you noticed that a lot of people aren't so keen on this trump fella? I'm pretty sure I could beat trump if the DNC got behind me, and I'm not even 35. The only guy who can't beat him is the one currently doing a genocide and also overseeing a tanking economy from the working class perspective. It is MARCH. if we had a sane country, the start of the election would still be at least 2 months out. It's definitely not too late, especially with how polls are looking. 100K Uncommitted Democrats in Michigan, a state Biden only won by 10K statewide. This election and the plans moving forward are too important to leave with a guy who is deeply unpopular, losing cognitive function by the day, and is at best 50/50 to even survive his term. Oh yeah and that guy is also committing a genocide.

I'm a socialist, and I plan to vote for trump, solely over the genocide. But even if you think Biden is less bad than trump, we cannot afford to have someone as awful as the lesser of those evils. Like, if the election is Biden Trump, we have already lost, which side wins is almost irrelevant. The urgent problem is not that Trump might win, it's that even if he doesn't, the winner is still deeply unqualified to be president. I mean fuck, let's just nominate Obama. If trump can run then Obama can. And I think obama was an awful president. But at least he is popular, knows where he is the entire time he's awake, and isn't going to die before 2028.

People think that democracy will die by court rulings, trump getting away with a coup, etc. But it won't. Democracy will die when 70+% of the country or so says "that's not my president, and he isn't my neighbor's president, so why would I listen to his government?"

Thief_of_Crows , to politics in Trump Claims He Will Debate Biden 'ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, ANYPLACE'

He might do that. But we all know that trump saying something has a very low correlation with him actually doing it. He ended the war in Afghanistan, a war which Biden spent 8 years overseeing and not ending. And I don't think trump can personally gain from the genocide continuing, so I don't see a reason he wouldn't end this too. Trump has a history of peace, his rhetoric isn't as bad as Bidens, what he actually says he will do isn't as bad as what Biden says he will do, AND... he isn't currently the guy doing it. I pretty much only care about this issue at this point, and I just don't see trump actually being worse than Biden on it. Biden's handlers care about maintaining the military industrial complex. Trump's handlers care about scamming the government $1 million at a time. If the end result is Trump steals a billion dollars and attempts a coup again, that is a fantastic outcome for us.
