Some reasons why I think American politics is a joke

[The Scott]

Animal Farm.

[Humble Narcissist]

BTW, not that I think any of these political puppets truly matter in the grand scheme of things.

I worry most about our economy and social issues that can affect us within our homes. I believe our economy is fucked beyond belief and no political party having majority in Washington can just magically fix it. There are international events at play that are making a world financial collapse very possible and our economy is still battling with signs of clear recession, incredibly high inflation, high (FED) interest rates and soon to be high unemployment. I don't care who takes over in Washington, the FED controls our economy and they aren't talking in a very promising way, not to mention that foreign entities are slowly becoming more powerful. The signs are clear. Russia has their BRICS coalition and is now suggesting that 12 other countries are looking for membership + this ongoing Ukraine Ponzi scheme that is further making our economy take a nosedive (Also, I have many friends from Ukraine that are great people, but their leader is a scumbag).

The main reason I vote Republican is because I think they tend to want to conserve *some* of the values that many feel this country was founded upon. Personally, I am a Libertarian but unless Ron Paul can be made 25 years younger, I just don't see any viable Libertarian candidates worth voting for. So for now, I vote RED, knowing damn well that the vast majority of politicians in Washington don't work for us but instead serve their special interest groups/lobbyist/PAC/masters. We are too small to matter and I think as we see so many of these top Democratic and Republican leaders in bed with outfits like the World Economic Forum, it all is becoming more and more apparent that we are blindfolded pawns in a greater game.

BTW, these are not just my views. Most of my friends that work in Hedge funds, government, academic institutions and various law firms are starting to feel the exact same way. They are just too scared to voice these thoughts as they fear being labeled a conspiracy theorist or some form of anarchist. It's so bad that even some of my strict Orthodox and Hassidic Jew friends are saying the exact same thing. So much so that these ultra religious guys are starting to question the very fabric of reality as they know it.

Everyone is waking up to the fuckery that seems to be very much at play. Unfortunately, we are not privy to the ways of the game and aren't even present in the game hall to stand over the players' shoulders to at least have a sense of direction. We're outside, funding their plans and playing the role of good slaves.

Morbid direction, I know, but have to throw it out there.

I'm wondering what 2030 will be like after "the great reset."

I think Walker was holding a gun to her head, chocking her and physically manhandling her.

Here's a video on YouTube showing the AD they recently ran a few months back (watch from the 1:23 - 2:38 mark):

Hard to tell where the attack ad on walker began, and ended?  Good old MSNBC

You now have early voting so most of the votes are already in by Election Day. Yet, it takes longer and longer to get the results. That’s the joke.

Exactly,  2020 took 10 minutes voting about 1 week early.  2022 primary took 5-10 tops, and I voted tat the precinct on the election day.  2022 actual election i voted about two weeks early at the election commission just like the 2020....took 10-15 minutes this time, mostly because the moved the building and there was some confusion, and people that were registering the day they voted.  You can only vote at your precinct here on the day of the election.  What you are saying makes total since, and now that technology is involved in counting, it makes the longer wait for results even more of a joke.

Dead people voting
Dead people being voted in - Anthony DeLuca wins reelection despite being dead
Voting machines in only Republican areas not working
Votes not counted for over a week
A Potato for president
A vegetable voted in (Fetterman)
Ballot Harvesting

McArdle is complacent and content to point to city council victories as evidence that Liberty has joined the chat.

The iron couldn't be hotter. Post-failure of mandates & lockdowns. Everything in the shitter and we get imposed lunacy from one camp or puritanism and an obnoxious orange geriatric from the other. Ain't nobody feeling connected to either side.

Who's pro-freedom and anti-war? A shit ton of people. But she seems convinced she has to hand raise a cow to get a hamburger someday. Yo, Angela. Knock those icicles off your twat. You ever heard of seduction? Instead of growing Libertarians from seed howsabout you bring people with an established political pedigree into the fold?

You already know who I think the Libertarians ought to be sending roses. Election jet fuel lady with the grey streak.

Dave Smith's restraint in not savaging McArdle is growing stale imo. She needs a Mises shaped boot to her ass pronto.

Fetterman may be the most successful NEET in history. His first job was that of Lt. Governor of Pennsylvania.

Here's a half baked thought. Frankfurt school neomarxism and the oppression olympics are a secularization of the monotheistic slave morality Nietzsche discussed.

The Christian right is going to struggle to formulate a reply when some clever lefty points out that, in today's America, they've got  more in common with the Romans than they do with the downtrodden meek.

If attacking Christianity (and there is absolutely an attack) with its own morality is by design, rather than just a kneejerk instantiation of commonly held Western precepts, it's a pretty sly strategy. Some Christian thinkers better set to work reconciling the Right's constant appeals to meritocracy (which are correct) with Bible verses about the meek and so forth.

I'm not saying this to be a dickhead athiest. It just seems like a point of contention that's going to explode sooner or later. Having some replies chambered may serve you well and be of significant importance for the nation.

More bizarre is the atheistic Left's adoption of victim worship, but that's a different can of worms.

Alot of hot women are going crazy over Fetterman. Definitely has that sex appeal.

Yes he has that masculine presence and makes those around him feel safe. Women find him to be very appealing. Certain friends of mine think he's fucking gorgeous.

[funk51]

Fetterman resembles Jason Voorhees unmasked

more like sloth of goonies fame.

No, he's still a gubment uber alles socialist.

Maybe he should just go start a steel company, in the name of national security and a fair shake for workers. But he can't because he doesn't know the first damn thing about it. So instead he's going to tell people who know all about the steel industry what they're allowed to do with their own company.

People who work at The Department of Central Planning can't run anything themselves, but they're going to tell you how you have to run your operation.

Or maybe Desantis can team up with the impressive gentleman on the right of this pic for a Two Ronnie's ticket & slam dunk 2024 win

I didn’t realize Ron was that short. He can’t run with Desantis, can’t have two sub 6’ ers on the ticket.

He says all the right things to get people to vote for him.

Will do nothing.

[Tapeworm]

He shouldn't do anything, or be permitted to. It's not his company.

Don't be taken in by communists just because they're waving the flag.
