Milquetoast is such an awesome word.
Also a great tune by Helmet.

I'm glad to hear that. You voted Harris?
What? Shut down schools? You mean when Trump was president they shut the schools down during covid?Democrats own education entirely and we see the result. You dick faces just shut down schools for two years then called anyone noticing kids suffered qanon losers. Didn’t become equal rights until after republicans let black people vote either.
No. But if I could go back I would have. Trump was going to win my state regardless, but I didn't expect his term to be this fucking trash.I'm glad to hear that. You voted Harris?
Okay. Silver! said I was too harsh on you and I trust his opinion so I would like to apologize. I'll try to do better.No. But if I could go back I would have. Trump was going to win my state regardless, but I didn't expect his term to be this fucking trash.
What centrist policies do you think the Democrats are missing out on that would be wildly popular?When your party's faces are AOC and Crockett the party's over. Mix in healthy doses of Woke, the Anti ICE shit, grrrr Orangeman bad, the Gaza protests. etc ....... instead of trying to right ship and get further center they keep going left. I wish the Dem party did wake up and get shit together and I could have an actual choice when I vote. Not juat voting R the less smelly pile of shit .
Thank you. I just think you guys would have a lot better results if you just simply focused on things that effect a majority of people and things that will help people. Things people want and need. Healthcare is a major issue in this country. We need more resources into helping the homeless and mentally ill people.Okay. Silver! said I was too harsh on you and I trust his opinion so I would like to apologize. I'll try to do better.
I will even put of with the silliness if I get something in return. Like, give me universal healthcare and I'll gladly state my prefered pronouns.Since nothing else I want to happen is ever on the table I've become a single issue voter and i feel more like I'm forced to vote r than it being something I want to do.
Kinda bugs me that I'm not really a right wingers but feel like I been pushed out of the left by a lot of silliness I'm not ever going to be down with.
Well I appreciate your sentiment, NATO was terrible. We'll see what these new agreements yield. But I don't think people overall are that worried here about trade abroad until it hits their pocketbooks. Usually the polls go up for the side that opposes the president. The fact that these remain low means the party is not hitting what they need to bring in enough of the middle roaders in my opinionThe basic answers are everything Trump did away with or damages , the basic answers aren’t getting rid of clean energy, ruining trade agreements and hurting Nato guidelines, the list goes on .
If the country doesn’t want extremism they come out and vote next time and don’t let a Republican president ever near the White House ever again it’s that bad and this should be a permanent warning forever going forward. Don’t forget this president has offspring imagine having to deal with any Trump ever again if the possibility is there ? Smh
Are you an independent like me?He started with the insults. I have never been in the Democratic Party.
Just in the loss of life from the USAID cuts should give anyone grounds to reconsider their vote I would think.
How important could high capacity mags be to you?
I just told you how important they are to me.
We've gone over this so many times I feel like you should actually know the 3 gun issues i will not budge on. And blowing money on various usaid programs is not more important to me than my rights or my traditions ...but if you and your Democrat pals would like me to vote in favor of things like that than make room for me and people like me in your tent . You'd be surprised , there's a lot of folks like me out there who aren't really Republicans but are uncomfortable with the democrats constant gun control attempts.
I'm not a democrat so quit f-ing lecturing me on what "you guys" should do.Thank you. I just think you guys would have a lot better results if you just simply focused on things that effect a majority of people and things that will help people. Things people want and need. Healthcare is a major issue in this country. We need more resources into helping the homeless and mentally ill people.
But really what I'd like is for all of us to get along better. Ultimately, everybody here in this country is in this together. People need to be more civil and nice with each other. Maybe we can get some progress to help everybody.
Honestly, I expect Trump to probably die before the end of his term. The problem here is how much damage he's going to do before he goes out. I apologize for the lecture and I agree with most of what you said.I'm not a democrat so quit f-ing lecturing me on what "you guys" should do.
Both parties are long gone, there is way too much special interest money in the system now and the needs of the people are an after thought. When I was a kid they used to talk about abolishing all soft money from elections. Ever since they have steadily chipped away at the rules, so much so that representatives are beholden to the soft money more than the voters. Now banning soft money isn't even in the national dialogue. Our system is cooked.
Also when I was a kid the press was actually the fourth estate, an independent body not beholden to any of the branches of government doing the investigative work for the people. Now the press is either owned by huge corporations or by an oligarch. They don't function in the same role as before.
I guess what I'm saying is our system has it a dead end and needs a refresh or else we are toast.
The thing is, with Harris we would have had a kinder, gentler machine gun hand.
I don't support either party but Trump is a whole different animal. I was thinking about it the other day, probably the most distractive political figure since Stalin. Name a worse one.
Really though, I almost get the feeling a lot of the democrats are complicit with a lot of the stuff Trump is doing. Newsom and AOC are just about the only ones speaking up affectively.
Yes, I think. There is an actual independent party and I am not a member of that. I am independent with no party affiliation.Are you an independent like me?
