If you are american you are probably better off this year spoiling your ballot or at least voting 3rd party. I mean the state isn't even legitimate to begin with, but I know most of y'all probably legitimise such institution anyway.
Historically speaking, regardless of whether a democrat or a republican is in power, things don't genuinely change, it's all a game where you are the one being played with. Biden stands for the status-quo, nothing is going to change with him, Trump doesn't know what he is doing either, each one both support some natural rights and reject others, so it's not like there is even an alternative which is a little bit better, both are equally as bad and fail to address the issues that actually matter.
The United States' debt will continue to go up, healthcare will remain a problem as the government continues to destroy competition, your money's value will continue to go down due to inflation, in general you are going to continue to be explored to fund a politician's wet dreams and you are going to think you are doing the right thing by voting for A over B.
Y'all need to reject the state already.

i'll pretend this was genuinely argued for a post or two.
if only conservatives and libertarians value hard work, how come there are so many rich evil liberals, and their cabals are so insidious?
it's as absurd an impression as a liberal arguing conservatives are too busy fixing their tractors and too bad at math to figure out how to install the game, much less minmax.

I don't blame ya, that was a mess to see last night.
na, i'd vote for someone but kind of hard to choose between the two, especially when watching them back and forth with this one debate. i'll make my final decision on who to vote for when the second debate comes around.
mind if i ask what's monke's policy on "flinging" is?

Terrible debate in many ways .....
But for pure comedy - the comment when Biden said Trump doesn't know how to finish.
Trump replies with , you'd be surprised..... Lmao
Stormy Daniels anyone

Remember the Treeline
It could have gone either way, before. Poll lead for Biden is comparatively massive (looking at past election years), but I don't think anyone in the US really trusts polls anymore.
I think RBG dying 40 days before the election will be one of the worst things to happen to Trump's chances, but overall will be a good thing for the Republican Party.
They will gladly sacrifice Trump to get a 5th Supreme Court Justice. I have a feeling that is what is about to happen.
I have a bit of a background in campaign policy (I worked as policy manager for a successful congressional campaign), and it seems to be political suicide to rush through a SCOTUS nomination this close to an election. You're basically telling the other party: "I know you hated your candidate before, but here's a reason for you to rage-vote me out."

I've heard some really good points made regarding RBGs replacement, and this one is the most consistent across the spectrum. Once they've gotten a 3rd justice out of trump, there's really no point for them to put too much effort into continuing to support him. Capital writ large now has the Democratic Party basically aping the GOP of the early-mid 90s, so if Trump pushes someone through it makes sense for folks to start breaking with him and backing a more "stable" Biden. They'll get all the same austerity and deregulation without the volatile swings.
Basically, trump has nothing left to offer capital, but could end up costing them a great deal. We'll see if that analysis holds true after the election

Just adding a tl:dw video on here that I’ve found.
in those videos, I literally see democratic videos say biden won in those videos and the same with trump and republican videos.
it’s literally like ... which one is right here with the information? If ya don’t look up the information about it, who’s technically the victor here?
Sort of why I’ve added the 1-2 hr. videos I could find on YT, it was namely the potential of “Deepfakes” being a possible problem in some of those small clip vods.
aye. I can’t speak for everyone here in Texas but with people exiting and moving from democratic states like CA to here. I’m kind of starting to see both democratic and republican video ads now.

actually, on the subject of twinks' politics, i wonder if there's a difference between the left-right leanings of those that come here to write guides, keep everyone posted on breaking news and provide analysis, and those that come here to epeen and talk smack. or if there's no correlation there to be found.
