Viking_Hippie,

It’s a My Vest from Mike Lindell

Viking_Hippie,

Exactly. Like the lumpy pillow is bad to sleep on, My Vest is bad at protecting against bullets.

Viking_Hippie,

…you said, being literally as annoying as possible and contributing nothing constructive

…he said, fully cognizant of the hypocrisy, which is why he decided to contribute a snarky editorial comic

Viking_Hippie,

Bro you gotta be constructive not destructive if you want to sway opinions

At least I admitted my hypocrisy and did something about it. You’re just doubling down on a lazy stereotype to avoid engaging with constructive criticism.

To paraphrase your own claim, it wasn’t “I started this charity/group/political campaign with signups/events/or public engagement.” Only “fuck anarcho types always annoying me”

Viking_Hippie,

They support

  • Abortion (in campaign ads and fundraising emails)
  • Religious freedom (by wagging a finger when Republicans don’t and then doing fuck all about it)
  • Police reform (by throwing cash at cops for “better training” while refusing to actually change the inherently abusive system)
  • Civil rights (sometimes) (when it won’t effect the bottom line of their owner donors like AIPAC and the fossil fuel industries
  • Drug decriminalization (in theory, but never in practice)

they are trying to encapsulate and entire half of the political spectrum

No. They are trying to be IN CHARGE OF over half of the political spectrum. The only ideologies other than their own (which is center right to right wing) that they ever try to appeal to is the couple dozen “undecided that are almost but not quite Republicans” left in the country.

There’s going to be gaps, disagreements between individual party members, and places where one policy or value has to override another.

Nope, there’s going to be nothing but neglect and abuse towards anyone to the left of the leadership, which is now to the right of Reagan.

In spite of the name, the Democratic Party is not democratic or even a party. It’s a private for-profit corporation controlled by a small group of people who are in turn controlled to varying degrees by rich people, other corporations, and industry lobbying groups.

Viking_Hippie,

Biden White House the thousandth time they’ve learned about the Israeli government doing something unconscionable:

Viking_Hippie,

Very low. It’s basically the hobby of a single conservative Zionist (assisted by some volunteer and paid freelancers, though there’s no public transparency about who does what and when) pretending to be a reputable arbiter of truth and bias.

Viking_Hippie,

Not when it has its own unadmitted biases. For example, the guy who pretty much IS MediaBiasFactCheck is an avowed “Israel is always right and if you ever say otherwise it’s automatically antisemitic” level Zionist, which is most of the reason for The Guardian’s factuality being listed as mixed rather than high or even very high.

A hidden bias like that makes a fact and bias checker worse than no checking.

Viking_Hippie,

…did the baby win?

Viking_Hippie,

Like Whitaker

Viking_Hippie,

cancels surprise birthday party for Koko Jr

Viking_Hippie,

Oh shii… is torn limb from limb as your noisemaker and party hat digress from Koko Jr’s expectations

Viking_Hippie,

Probably more like half your age plus 70 😄

Viking_Hippie,

Double your age minus 7000, final offer.

Viking_Hippie,

Shouldn’t have drunk that Potion of Permanent Polymorph without reading the warnings on the label 🤷

Viking_Hippie,

I wouldn’t call two years “real quick” tbh…

Viking_Hippie,

No, John Brown did it to free the slaves. One of the unofficial goals of Bannon and the other fascists is to expand punitive slavery and likely long term bring back chattel slavery.

Viking_Hippie,

they just want their artificially cheap products

Because that’s all they can AFFORD due to gigantic corporations colluding to make housing, food, healthcare, medicine, and yes, cars artificially expensive.

You’re acting like poverty is an irresponsible choice by the consumers rather than the inevitable effect of extreme corporate profiteering allowed because the politicians are receiving bribes.

And yes, the president formerly known as The Senator from MBNA is very much one of those corrupt politicians.

The same people who claim to support unions and raising wages for average workers are now arguing against both

the competition crumbles and we’re back to high prices

That’s exactly what this ridiculously high tariff does: it removes competition so that American carmakers won’t have to lower their ridiculously high prices.

beholden to China for all our automotive needs

Yeah, because being beholden to the notoriously corrupt and abusive big US automakers and paying more for the privilege is MUCH better! 🙄

it’s ridiculous to have to keep reading this hypocrisy over and over again.

Is what I think every time party robots such as yourself who rightly castigated Trump for his harmful trade war with China but are now cheering on Biden doing the same with many of the same justifications.

Apparently used vehicles are so 2020 and we should scrap all 220 million of them and build brand new ones because that’s what’s good for the environment.

Burning Man called. They want their colossal strawman back.

Viking_Hippie,

Yeah, all that link gives me is an obvious lie. Not the best sign as to the truthfulness of the actual article…

https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/0621ed7a-3076-4803-b44a-0f044e15611c.jpeg

Viking_Hippie,

And I’m saying that they didn’t even have to do THAT, they could just suspend it temporarily any time they want. They don’t need 50 votes to permanently dismantle it when they can already do it at will on a case by case basis.

Viking_Hippie,

So you live in Europe and your goal is (…) to spread misinformation in the US, presumably with the goal of creating political division

Absolutely not. Cool it with the bigoted snap judgments, please.

Congress, not POTUS, determines the number of justices

So when there’s something necessary that he refuses to do, you’re going to pretend that his urging does nothing, making him powerless to influence Congress?

I bet you don’t give him credit for any of his signature bills that Congress passed either, right? Right??

Viking_Hippie,

Nope. That doesn’t mean that I’m some shady operative spreading misinformation to destabilize American democracy like you’re insinuating, though.

That’s just you trying to use bigotry to prop up your bad arguments.

Viking_Hippie,

Nope, this is the choice of the site and has nothing to do with the content of the article.

It’s them choosing that they’d rather ban the entire EU than follow common sense pro-consumer cookie regulations.

Most of the EU is actually to the LEFT of Biden, let alone a literal fascist like Trump.

Viking_Hippie, (edited )

I didn’t coin the term, I’m just spreading it with gleeful sadism 😛

Viking_Hippie,

lots of folks just want someone to give them lots and lots money for merely existing so they can be a leech on others and society.

Those are called billionaires
