re: Political Melt Thread

I'm not far right but I can acknowledge that there are some really bizarre anomalies that took place. Does it mean the system is broken? I have no idea, but there was certainly some frickery going on.

This is the only place I can really say this, but:

I'm not getting vaccinated. I don't care what people tell me, I don't care if it's dangerous for other people, I'd like to see what happens 3 - 5 years after the vaccine before I even consider it.

The old were the first vaccinated, and they say that vaccinated people don't go to the hospital, so why is everyone trying to convince me to take it? I'm young, I'm very healthy, I already had COVID and I was fine, I just don't understand why everyone is so gung-ho over forcing everyone to take it.

There are already other variants, and there will likely be many more before the vaccine ever works, and so the argument that we need to "stop it beforehand" is already out the window.

It's just a weird thing to watch so many people push a vaccine for a disease that doesn't even kill that many people. Outside of a handful of cases, COVID-19 pretty much exclusively kills the elderly and overweight, both of which I despise. (That was just a joke.)

Anyway, I'm not getting the vaccine.

I had a friend from the military, older, who had taken the Anthrax Vaccine and got fricked up real bad. He now deals with seizures and it's permanent. I also have a ton of images of people saying they would never take Trump's Vaccine (hilarious) that are now saying we're killing people by not getting vaccinated.

I will take it in three years, which is long enough to see if there will be long term side effects or not. I might also consider taking it if the military mandated it to troops, although after what I saw with the Anthrax Vaccine maybe not.

stepping stones to socialism. Dem's wet dream.

Only 6 months in to the Harris / Biden circus and everywhere you look, it's a clusterfrick. Just to name a few. The southern border, handling of covid, inflation, gas prices, voting laws, crime, and not to mention US citizens held in solitary confinement for 6 months as political prisoners in their own country.
I hope any of you that voted for Biden because orange man was bad are feeling the burn. God help us all, I don't know whether we will last 18 more months at this pace.

"Nothing will fundamentally change." - Joe Biden.

And they really haven't outside of some very small changes that will get immediately overturned by the next Republican President.

I will say, Dems are gonna get steamrolled in a few years and then we're going to see some serious problems because there are a lot of precedents being set.

Kind of the same thing that happened from Bush to Obama and then Obama to Trump.

Who gave precedent to spy on Americans? Who expanded on it?

Who expanded on drone strikes?

Who deported people at will on a whim? (Obama was considered deporter-in-chief)

Who set the precedent to ban certain countries from entry into America? (Obama)

Who built the cages Trump used to cage kids?

Now, we have a President who is actively trying to force people to show their medical history which will have consequences in the future but worst of all?

Big deal here:

Trying to start banning people from social media based on what they feel is "misinformation".

That's gonna be a doozy when Trump or DeSantis take over in 2024, because they will use that to their own ends and abuse it just as the Democrats would.

tl;dr they're all the same lol.

That and the liberal wokeness that is plaguing the US. Innocent until proven otherwise is no longer a belief anymore. You only get shown half the story in the media that is 100% biased and lead you to believe that one person/group is the victim while they’re really the instigators.

Bush was the worst President for Tyranny, I'm not propping up the Democrats, they're both terrible parties.

However, President Biden may be the first that has tried to silence something in tandem with social media, and that is an extremely dangerous precedent.

We don't want a guy like Trump, hypothetically speaking, having the right to suppress "misinformation" on social media, and the problem with precedent is that it can be used by Red or Blue. If it's allowed with Biden, it will be wielded by someone in the future and they will have ever right to do so, just like when President Bush started up with overt domestic spying.

Once you let the cat out of the bag that's it.

(no message)

I'm glad I live in a country where the President doesn't give two fricks about COVID.

I mean, the guy is still a moron but at least it's free and easy to go wherever you want, even in Mexico City.

We actually had a bunch of people die from the subway crashing (bridge collapsed) a few months ago that had everyone really pissed off lol.

Feminists have destroyed a lot of stuff downtown, painted on stuff, broke other stuff, pretty wild.

They just cracked down on a lot of black market stuff (cigarettes and other materials).

They also had elections, but pretty much everyone feels like they're the same no matter what.

I'm personally miffed because they made one of these disgusting markets in a park near me and they have it blocked off. A lot of local corruption, the mayor basically bought these kiosks with government funds and then sold it to these people who don't pay taxes, and have given them private police officers to protect it.
