Unbelievable the degenerate Left has brought us to this point as a society. It will only get worse as we keep "voting" them in.


Crazy how education is being taken over by far right Nazis, Trump followers and antisemites.
Vote blue to stop the madness!






 


I found this extremely thought provoking. Imo it isn't exactly true. I don't think societies gravitate towards it as much as they slowly let it happen to them, like the boiling frog metaphor.

However I think it's 100% true for western civilization in modern times. Why? Imo there can only be one answer - it's being subtly taught via education and socialization.

Just a few generations ago we had family that literally got on boats with no guarantee of safe arrival, that set out across this land with no promise of safety, that charged beaches or other battle lines, etc etc. Yet now we're reduced to words are violence and npc like behavior.

It's equally sad, scary, and infuriating
 
We are going to start calling school shootings mass late term abortion events. That should get more than thoughts and prayers from useless Republicans.

0% chance people like dion/Sam/Jimlee are wearing masks in public at this very moment in time. But, they sure sound virtuous on the anonymous message board.

They know it’s stupid. That’s why they don’t wear one in real life. But, they can’t allow themselves to admit they were duped by our tyrant political/bureaucratic class.

Hurts their argument for more government when that same government are proven liars.
Duped into what? Even if one grants your premise the result of this supposed tyranny is a small swatch of cloth on your face. Oooooo so scary. Meanwhile in Iran you get oublietted for not covering your hair. Americans are such crybabies.

Demographics is destiny. So, that in addition to complete control of the education system and boom!
 
Awesome, good info and thanks.

So then to me, this isn't a huge deal that they don't have a secondary bank of "sick time".

I work tech for a Non for Profit and I only get like 4 weeks of PTO with ZERO sick time.

I'd be curious what sort of PTO one of these rail workers get when they start their employment.
You deserve more time off, not them less. Raise up your fellow workers when they struggle, don’t tear them down. You’re stuck in crab mentality.

Iran sucks worse, so give up your liberties for pseudo science. Got it. Great point. Until we are Iran, no complaining.

The liberty to what? Breathe germs on people in public? Forgive me if I’ve forgotten but you’ll have to point that one out to me in the Constitution. I don’t like “No shoes, no shirt, no service!” signs at restaurants either but until we pass laws or amendments giving us garment autonomy corporate and government powers can dictate you having to cover your pee-pee(and mouth) in public. Don’t like that then advocate for an amendment giving us that right over our clothing. Just like we got all our other rights.
 

Taking back the house, keeping Biden in check, putting Biden/Biden/Fauci in the crosshairs of an investigation.........definitely not a huge underperformance.

Admitted, the #'s weren't as expected, but that is just semantics at this point, and honestly, the left has more pressure now to reverse the insanity they have instilled before 24 or it may be really ugly.
 
Unionize, hold the country hostage, and get larger raises than anyone during a recession. Who pays? The rest of us. Listen to the union commies!!
I commented on this in a general way yesterday. There's a line in there somewhere between raising costs enough to lose manufacturing jobs and importing cheap goods. I don't know where the line needs to be drawn, but the line is there.

You may want to start by looking up the definition of “liberty.” I did not say constitutional right. I also did not say that private businesses could not place lawful restrictions patrons.

You love your strawman arguments. Someone points out a stupid post you make and then you try to defend by moving the ball and claiming things no one said.

I think you may be the American crybaby of which you wrote.

The president prior to the mid-terms claimed a resolution. How many here think that he did not know that the big unions would reject that compromise? If you think his administration was later surprised, I have lakefront property in the desert I would love to sell. Here we run up against the coldest time of the year and the unions want more. Pelosi claims she won’t cave and then she does. This was a scam. Under Biden’s claimed resolution, good paying jobs would have received a better raise than most Americans will see in this recession and those raises won’t go away afterwards. Now we are grabbed by the short hairs and government gets involved yet again to pony up.

So shouldn’t you be fighting for those others who didn’t get larger raises rather than cutting down those who dare to stick their heads up?

Then what, pray tell, is this “liberty” you speak of that’s being revoked? Can you cite a single right, or any law, or anything? What are you even talking about if businesses and governments can legally apply restrictions?

If workers have the leverage to grab us by the short hairs then that work is important enough to be appropriately compensated. Isn't that the invisible hand of y'all's supposed market?

There's no scenario where you're the good guys when you're doing this and this is what the left supports.
The left is now the law and order party. The right has become the ignore elections and riot party.
The Great Pumpkin, Bigfoot, and Loch Ness did it!!!
You guys are being played like fiddles by the election denier snake oil salesmen. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
 
Dare to stick their heads up? Come now, drama Dion. They had a good deal WE were going to to pay for. Now we pay more. Biden lied and then groveled to Congress for another fix.
You make more than those rail workers. Dictating to them how little their work is worth is disgusting and you should look to what your religion teaches about such hubris.

You have some comprehension issues.

First, because the Internet is hard for you,

Liberty: the state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one's way of life, behavior, or political views.

Second, the fact Iran is the bar for you is a pathetic admission. The fact you want pseudo science restricting your liberty is well known here. We disagree.

Third, I do admit that PRIVATE BUSINESS may place lawful restrictions on patrons and patrons are free to walk away. (See where you added “government” to my statement to create a lie)

Y’all confused again. When government gets involved, the market does not drive the wage. Not a hard concept. See, Dion, there is no “invisible hand” here, just cowardice and union workers forced to pay dues to a large institution that is manipulating the pawns in government they financially control.

The clowns need to be placed on ignore again. Your foolishness adds nothing.

You don’t know my wage. Tell us what their wages are, Dion. When the government gets involved, tax payers and the public have a say. So, take your anti-free speech crap someplace else.
