OT: Current Affairs and Politics

[Bandwagon]

At least merkins have moved on from being triggered by a teenager in Greta to being triggered by a full grown woman in Tame.

It's progress I guess.

The garbage left. What a disgrace they are.

Because using the tragic death of a young woman to rage bait your base is the height of compassion

Apprantley Albo called Tame difficult yesterday and is copping heat for it lol.

Its the best comment Albo has said in his whole Prime Ministership.

Grace Tame is a disgrace to the country and quite frankly an attention seeker.

The fact her and her dimwit supporters have quickly jumped on the misogynist bandwagon is the usual pathetic nonsense you get from the left.

Here you are with the generalist "the left" label - kind of similar in effect (and impotence) to claims made about "the indians", "the muslims", "the jews", "men", "women", "people with blue eyes" etc.

The garbage left. What a disgrace they are.

And of course this mindless use of a generic "the left" label, which preceded it.

Yeah but the left is the worst.

This gets said but do you know what you mean by this?

I would say I need a definition of culture and war and "culture war" in the context of this phrase that gets used.

I am off balance for example that Bandwagon seems to have mocked the culture wars after your post and so thinks he isnt part of it (in the war) maybe?

The USA is a cesspool a human life doesn't mean anything to either side. It's all a game.

In both cases they were just gifted (by the faceless genderless left) a platform to lecture people in a rather aggressive way.
People do just want to bitch slap em a little bit and then we would move on.

Because using the tragic death of a young woman to rage bait your base is the height of compassion

What’s truly lacking in compassion is trying to shut down discussion by labelling it ‘rage bait’ instead of addressing the substance of the issue. The reality is they didn’t stand up because Trump was present — politics came before principle.

And to answer @the phantom menace — yes, the Democrats are on the left, but many see them as having veered into a more extreme and unhinged version of it.

So you do admit "the left" isn't some magical unified label that can be applied to all and sundry to support your particular point or argument when you see fit... but you still use it to lazily try and do so?

Epstein files missing records about woman who made claim against Trump

The files released by the US Department of Justice don’t include material related to a woman who alleges she was sexually assaulted by Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump when she was a minor.

Might have has something to do with the made up stuff about the killer being an illegal and it's all their fault BS.

Fact Check: Decarlos Brown Jr., The Accused Killer Of Iryna Zarutska, Was NOT A Foreign National Who 'Came In Through Open Borders'

Was Decarlos Brown Jr., accused of killing Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska, a foreign national who "came in through open borders," as Donald Trump said during the State of the Union address? No, that...

Fact Check: DeCarlos Brown Is Not an Undocumented Immigrant

Despite what President Donald Trump said in the State of the Union address, the man accused of killing Iryna Zarutska was born in Charlotte.

Trump cites Charlotte light rail slaying, criticizes 'pro-crime' Democrats

In his State of the Union Address, President Donald Trump recognized the mother of Iryna Zarutska and blamed her killing on "pro-crime" Democrats.

f**king lolz at trying to "shut down discussion" mate. Did you suddenly lose your testicles and get all bullied by big old meanie Bandwagon? That post is rage bait, plain and simple.

instead of addressing the substance of the issue. The reality is they didn’t stand up because Trump was present — politics came before principle.

Trump was playing politics in asking them to stand, if you can't see that you're a f**king moron. Like really, the whole shebang is about the politics of it.

Democrats are on the left, but many see them as having veered into a more extreme and unhinged version of it.

The merkins won't even advocate for simple leftist shit, like universal health care, or proper social safety nets. They are as cucked by corporate America as the GOP is for the most part, and the only genuine leftist will never be handed any power from the party.

They are not even a leftist party anymore, let alone "extreme left".

If you need an example of that, see the complete and total refusal to endorse Mandami by party scions, they still pushed for Cuomo despite it being obvious to every merkin in the world the base wanted Mandami

Mate you do realise the people that are going to reply have the same mentality as trump? It's not about human life its there ideology which you are attacking

 

[Gary Gutful]

This gets said but do you know what you mean by this?

I do. I am referring to the lack of meaningful conversation about policy. It’s all about attacking identity. Both sides are guilty of it and it has become a race to the bottom.

 

[Avenger]

You lot are completely off the rails. Thank God the footy season’s back — at least we can focus on something worth talking about.


PS Albo is the one who lost his balls by apologising to the former Australian of the year. She isn’t difficult. He meant ‘difficult life’

LOL
