That's as absurd as the Christian persecution in the US complex that it often goes hand in hand with. Losing ones historical ability to dominate other groups in favor of a more level playing field for all is not discrimination.

Yeah, he s/h called it affirmative action in his post. Then it's fine.

Bronco I totally understand why you would say that given my positions on most issues, but affirmative action is one of the few where I'm firmly on your side. It is one of the only things I look forward to seeing this iteration of the Supreme Court rule upon, and hopefully put an end to. The way to address historical discrimination is NOT via state run discrimination in the present. I believe the most significant progress against racism, misogyny, homophobia, etc. will only be made when the laws are race/gender/etc. neutral and discrimination for or against is outlawed.

1. Bit disingenuous to call Trump simply "unpopular"

2. Democrats elected to pass democratic legislation is popular among the left. Why should I play your both sides game when we have a very different view of current events? Half this board doesn't even believe in climate change.

Explain point 1 to me.

I can't, because you believe everything right wing media tells you. You somehow believe that these milquetoast toothless Democrats are the evil Boogeymen of the left so therefore that makes them the same as Trump, and therefore just "unpopular" as you mildly put it. Trump is under investigation for crimes never before committed by a former president. If the accusations are true, he will be thrown in prison as a traitor. Fling all the conspiraciea and what ifs you want against the three you mentioned, but none of them come close to Trump. You are being disingenuous.

Regarding climate change, you ignore the huge elephants in the room (China and India) who are NOT curbing their emmissions like us and western Europe. I thought you were a STEM major so I'm sure you understand that you have to change the variables that make the biggest impact if you want to see significant changes over time.

What difference does it make what China and India do with regards to climate change? What, we should just ignore the catastrophic warming of our planet because it's not entirely our fault? Or are you saying Americans are incapable of handling both tasks? And yet, somehow all your words still don't justify why, in the year 2022, half of y'all don't believe in anthropogenic climate change, despite overwhelming evidence. How is anyone expected to deal with such irrationality seriously? Why should I care what you guys want for this country if you can't even agree on climate change?

I don't personally know a single conservative who doesn't believe humanity has some effect on the climate. You'd have to be joking or oblivious to the world around you not to accept the fact that we affect the climate.

What I do find is that most don't believe it's "catastrophic" as you say. There are plenty of scientists who do debate the degree of our affect on the environment and to what degree is CO2 affecting it as opposed to deforestation and desertification. The problem is many on the left believe radical measures are needed. Conservatives believe a balanced approach is much more logical. Destroying economies thru drastic measures leads to poverty and poverty has always had a far worse affect on the environment than prosperity.

As long as bombs are being dropped all over the globe on a daily basis, dont ask me to cut back on my heat during the winter or ac during the summer. Don't ask me to slow down on my driving, or any other thing.

Over 500k bombs have been dropped by our government in the past 25 years. No telling how many more of our bombs have been dropped by others, like Ukraine right now.. I am willing to guess well over a million bombs have been dropped world wide in the past 25 years. But then these same bomb droppers are telling me about the dangers of climate change... Just how far can I drive my car to equal the same emissions as one missle explosion?

I'm still waiting on Gore-bot's postulation in his 2006 flick "An Inconvenient Truth" about the "ocean levels rising 20 feet due to the icecaps melting".

He made a chunk of $$$ from suckers who fear the climate boogeyman, LOL.

Doesn't Gore live in a house that perhaps uses a huge amount of energy? Just like Climate Czar Kerry flies his private jet to argue about climate abuse. That Horseface jack@ss dumps more toxins in the air on one of his BS trips that I have done driving my various gas guzzler(s) since 1986.

Climate change? Sure. Human created?..to some extent. Normal cyclical event? Most likely... all combined. What bothers a lot of us is the bogus claims of imminent catastrophe that leftists have been touting for decades....One of which was a VP of the US. Just stop with the histrionics and put forth some reasonable positions that don't destroy the economy in the process. How about using some common sense and push more for Clean Air? It would accomplish the same goals. Everyone likes clean air.

I think the left in power (globalists and corporations and politicians) want a Chinese style communism which is really just a leftist version of fascism with wealth and power concentrated at the top.

As others have said, the GOP knows nothing about winning elections. You're too caught up in petty scorekeeping and "owning the libs". So by all means keep cheering along with us about the steady export of blue voters into increasingly competitive states like Texas, when red Texas finally falls it will mean the end of GOP power on the national level.

Which will in turn herald the end of the USA as we know it. I want to be a fly on your wall when the realization hits you that what/who you support cares nothing at all for you. You apparently think that democrats are still the party of the working man. If they have their way, and if you're lucky, you can keep working to make their lives better at your own expense.

If you look at history, this is totally untrue. Marxism pits the Bourgeoisie (ruling class) against the proletariat (working class). Saying they are at odds because the bourgeoisie owns what the workers need to produce things and that if they got rid of the bourgeoisie the proletariat would reap the benefits. As they would get to split up the sizable chunk of the pie going to the bourgeoisie

In the Soviet Union, China, Cuba, etc they went after the landlords, factory owners, the wealthy, and those in power.

Communist leaders by in large didn't come from the powerful, Mao was a farmer, Stalin grew up in poverty, Lenin grew up middle class, etc.

I'm not a Marxist but as someone on the left, I have never understood why so many conservatives think prominent Democrats are closet Marxists. Even the more radical Dems such as Bernie and AOC base their beliefs on Nordic countries not 1960s China.

You did not read what others have posted or are intentionally being obtuse. The people that lost their businesses were the upper middle class and slightly richer, the elite (like Bezos, Gates, etc) still remained elite.

I do see a tent and some circus freaks, how appropriate that Florida seems to be your new seat of power since it is the traditional winter home of carnival freaks. Fortunately last Tuesday, the rest of the country declined to run away and join the circus.

And while Ringmaster Ron has demonstrated an impressive hold on the Florida electorate, we'll see how successful he is at translating that nationally. I'd be a lot more concerned if the big orange clown down south wasn't going to wage scorched earth warfare against him, and I think we can all agree he couldn't care less whether or not he burns your tent down in the process. You'll either nominate him and lose with the voters, or deny him and he'll do you far more internal damage than we ever could.
