 | Your views, thoughts or simply opinions. The Economy is not well (understatement). I know there are some here that will try to link the country they are residing in as problems of the USA. Sorry the USA cannot be responsible for 100% of the problems in the world nor should they be expected to help repair all problems. |

Corporate Capitulation (Big Business Wins):
The core of your argument is that modern American media outlets are no longer independent watchdogs; they are small cogs inside massive, soulless conglomerates. When faced with a choice between defending a journalistic principle or securing a multi-billion-dollar merger, corporate executives will always choose the money. For Paramount and ABC, paying a $31 million settlement to Trump was not a legal defeat, but a minor transaction fee to protect their corporate transactions from political interference.
The "Erdoğan Method":
The strategy used against US media mirrors the exact playbook Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan used to dismantle Turkey’s independent press throughout the 2000s and 2010s. Erdoğan did not simply shut down all critical newspapers by decree; he weaponized the state apparatus to force them into submission.
The parallels to the Trump administration's tactics are striking:
• Regulatory Chantage (Blackmail): Erdoğan famously used aggressive tax audits, massive fines, and state regulatory bodies to financially cripple media conglomerates (like the Doğan Media Group) that published critical coverage. In the US, Trump and his allies utilized the FCC and antitrust regulators as leverage, threatening to block vital corporate mergers until the parent companies capitulated.
• Forced Weaponized Consolidation: Once Erdoğan broke the financial back of independent media owners, those outlets were systematically sold off to pro-government oligarchs and crony conglomerates. This mirrors the current rapid consolidation in the US, where the government waves through unprecedented mega-mergers, like the $111 billion Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery deal, effectively placing major networks like CNN and CBS into the hands of a few compliant corporate entities.
• Incentivized Self-Censorship: Under Erdoğan, Turkish media oligarchs quickly realized that keeping their lucrative state contracts required neutering their own newsrooms. Similarly, US media giants now practice preemptive self-censorship, settling lawsuits and altering journalistic standards because they know aggressive reporting poses a direct threat to their corporate profits and regulatory approvals.
Summary:
Ultimately, both methods achieve the same goal: they neutralize the press without needing to officially ban free speech. By squeezing the corporate parent companies where it hurts most, their wallets and their ability to merge, the state ensures that the "watchdog" willingly puts on its own leash.

Case: Hunter Biden sued Patrick Byrne, a former CEO of Overstock.com and a political commentator, for defamation.
Claim: Biden alleged that Byrne made false statements accusing him of serious crimes and misconduct, including claims tied to corruption and the contents of Hunter Biden's laptop.
Court: U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.
Outcome: The court entered judgment for Hunter Biden after Byrne failed to properly defend the case and did not comply with court orders (a default judgment, rather than a verdict after a full trial).
Damages: The court awarded Hunter Biden $1 in nominal damages and $1.7 million in punitive damages.
Meaning: It was a real legal win for Hunter Biden: a court judgment finding Byrne liable and awarding damages.
As far as I can find, Trump has NEVER won any of the defamation cases that he started. Sometimes, the other side backs down and settles, if Trump abuses the power of his office to coerce the plaintiffs into submission, or if they let him have the settlement as a bribe.
McConnell says he was "briefly unconscious" had pneumonia in health update

Watching the whole Mitch McConnell situation from over here in the Netherlands, and honestly, we are completely baffled by how badly his team botched the communication on this. Holding back information for nearly a month was just flat-out stupid crisis management.
Nobody is buying the official press release claiming he was just "briefly unconscious" after a simple fall. That completely contradicts the leaked EMS audio where dispatchers literally mentioned a potential cardiac arrest and emergency CPR. When you hide basic facts,
you create a massive information vacuum, and that's a dangerous paradox: by trying to suppress media noise, his office actually fueled the exact conspiracy theories they wanted to avoid. (https://x.com/cwebbonline/status/2076466612333625677)
This isn't just "liberals" making noise. Many prominent right-wing influencers have been openly speculating for weeks whether he was secretly dead or in a permanent coma, demanding to know why leadership was hiding his true condition.
Over here, Dutch news outlets (like the national broadcaster NOS and major newspapers like NRC and de Volkskrant) have been covering this with sheer amazement. Our political analysts find it wild how a top-tier Washington PR team didn't realize that in 2026, total silence guarantees the internet will just fill the gaps with AI deepfakes and rumors.
To us, treating an 84-year-old senator's major health crisis like a state secret just erodes public trust even further.
The root of the problem is how our legal systems differ. In the U.S., you don’t have temporary replacements for Congress. It’s all-or-nothing. With a razor-thin Senate majority, if McConnell steps aside or admits he is incapacitated, his party can't hold the party line, risking their ability to pass laws or even meet a quorum. The American system practically forces politicians to hide their illnesses to protect their party's power.
In the Netherlands, our election laws actually remove that political risk. Since 2006, we have a system that allows for a strict 16-week temporary replacement, if a Member of Parliament gets seriously ill. The next person on the party's election list steps in, so the party loses zero voting power. If someone is just out for a brief month, their seat stays empty, but the party will instantly release a brief statement like "Member of Parliament X is recovering from surgery for the next four weeks." End of story. Our system allows politicians to be transparent because honesty won't cost the party a crucial vote, whereas the U.S. system practically rewards secrecy and forces PR teams to run these absurd "Proof of Life" spins.
Socialism comes from the Latin word socius, meaning "companion" or "associate.".
The basic idea is that the economy should benefit everyone, not mainly rich owners or shareholders. This usually means that important businesses and services should be owned or controlled by the people who work in them, the people who use them, or the public as a whole.
Communism comes from the Latin word communis, meaning "common" or "shared." The idea is that things like land, factories, and machines should belong to everyone together, instead of being owned by private people or companies. In Marxist theory, this would eventually lead to a society without social classes or a government.
Countries such as the Soviet Union and Maoist China called themselves communist, but whether they actually achieved the goals of communism is still debated. Calling yourself something does not automatically make you that thing. A country can call itself communist without matching the original idea, just as a country can call itself democratic without actually being a democracy.
The meaning of words can change over time. However, in political science, words like socialism and communism still have clear definitions. Whether you agree with these ideas or not, it is important to know the difference between what an idea MEANS and what has been done by people who CLAIMED to follow it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Capitalism comes from the word capital, which comes from the Latin capitale, meaning wealth or property. In economics, capital means resources that can be used to produce goods and services, such as land, factories, machines, businesses, and financial assets.
The basic idea of capitalism is that productive resources are privately owned. This means that individuals, groups, or companies can own and control the things used to produce goods and services. Because ownership gives decision-making power, the owners of capital have the authority to decide how those resources are used and have the right to benefit from their use.
Throughout history, capitalism has taken many different forms. Some capitalist societies have produced high levels of innovation, economic growth, and prosperity. Others have been associated with serious problems, including exploitation of workers, extreme inequality, monopolies, and the concentration of economic and political power.
During the Industrial Revolution, many workers experienced dangerous working conditions, very low wages, long working hours, and child labour. During the Gilded Age in the United States, large companies and wealthy industrialists gained enormous economic influence, creating concerns about monopolies and unequal political power. Colonial economic systems also often combined private ownership and profit-making with the exploitation of people and resources.
These examples are part of the history of capitalism, just as authoritarian governments are part of the history of movements that called themselves socialist or communist. However, historical examples do not by themselves define the entire concept. They show the different ways a system can develop depending on the institutions, rules, and power structures surrounding it.
Like socialism and communism, capitalism is a broad family of ideas with different interpretations. Some forms place more emphasis on individual freedom, private ownership, and fewer restrictions on economic activity. Other forms support stronger rules and public institutions to influence how the economy works.
The meaning of the word does NOT depend on whether a particular capitalist society is successful, fair, unequal, democratic, or dominated by large corporations. Those are questions about how capitalism is organized and what results from it. The basic definition remains the same: capitalism is a system based on private ownership of productive resources.
Do you see a classless, stateless society, based on common ownership,
on that 'communist side'?
And that is TRUE, in the Marxist definitions of both terms, but not how YOU define them.
I have been trying to get you to understand this for YEARS NOW.
===== The Marxist Ideal (The Blueprint):
Karl Marx’s entire philosophy was about decentralization. Marx saw capitalism as a system where a tiny elite at the top (the CEOs/Oligarchs) held all the economic and political power over the working class.
- Socialism was the transition phase: the workers taking over the factories and governing democratically from the bottom up.
- Communism was the ultimate end goal: a society where the central state completely vanishes because power and wealth are so thoroughly distributed among local communities that a government bureaucracy isn't even needed anymore. It is the absolute absence of a ruling class.
"younger people want to try to change the definition of words"
YOU are changing the definitions, based on the lies of dictators.
===== The Dictator's Marketing Campaign vs. The Reality
When most people in the West think of "communism," they are actually looking at the brutal realities of regimes led by dictators like Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, or Nicolбs Maduro. However, there is a massive gulf between what these rulers did and what the actual definition of the ideology means.
These dictators essentially ran a massive political bait-and-switch. They used Karl Marx’s popular, populist slogans, promising equality, power to the working class, and an end to oppression, to gain the trust of the masses and overthrow the existing governments. But once they secured control, they did the exact opposite of what Marxist theory dictates.
Instead of gradually dismantling the power of the state and distributing wealth and decision-making power down to local communities, these regimes hyper-centralized the state. They built massive, top-down authoritarian systems where a tiny, unelected political and military elite held 100% of the political power and controlled 100% of the economic resources. They didn't eliminate the billionaire ruling class; they simply replaced them, concentrating the nation's wealth into their own private pockets while the working class starved.
In short: they adopted the vocabulary of communism as a marketing shield to mask what was, in reality, a standard, corrupt oligarchy. Believing these regimes were actually communist just because they used the label is the equivalent of believing North Korea
is a democracy, just because its official name is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
===== The Dictator's Bait-and-Switch (and how it applies to the US)
Dictators like Stalin or Maduro ran a massive political fraud. They used Karl Marx’s slogans (equality, power to the workers) to overthrow the system. But instead of giving power to the people, they hyper-centralized the state. They built a corrupt oligarchy, concentrating 100% of the wealth and power into their own private pockets.
Believing they were actually communist, just because of their marketing, is like believing North Korea is a democracy because it’s in their official name.
This exact same bait-and-switch can happen in the US. If a populist leader dismantles democratic checks and balances and merges government power with ultra-rich billionaires, the free market dies.
The mechanism is just inverted, but the result is identical:
• In Venezuela, a political elite seized the economy to enrich themselves.
• In an authoritarian US, a corporate billionaire elite captures the government to control the laws and wealth for themselves.
Both roads lead to the exact same destination: a hyper-centralized ruling class with 100% of the power, leaving the working class with zero influence. Authoritarian elites always rob the working class the exact same way, regardless of whether they wave a communist red flag or an American one.
What is to stop it from progressing past the "ideal " stage of socialism?
The 'end goal' is the desired result. Who said that it should be prevented?
The wheel chock is people's desire to be selfish and power hungry.
You keep thinking that 'communism' is authoritarian. Can't you read?
A "classless, stateless society, based on common ownership".
That's the complete ABSENCE of authority.
"To believe that the process would stop suddenly for the first time in world history"
THE PROCESS NEVER EVER REACHED ANYTHING NEAR IT!!!!
No country has ever even achieved the "transition stage".
People are SELFISH. CAPITALISM needs wheel chocks to prevent the machine
from progressing to OLIGARCHY, because the greed and lust for power of the
wealthy elites can never be satisfied. DO YOU HAVE EYES?!?
What are YOU doing to stop CAPITALISM declining to OLIGARCHY?
Society will NEVER progress from socialism to capitalism automatically,
because it REQUIRES THE WILLINGNESS TO SHARE!
Marx didn't propose socialism as the 'ideal stage', but communism.
I am a socialist; for ME PERSONALLY it IS the 'ideal stage'.
I think that humans are too selfish to accept communism, and that a state
with some form of government is practically useful.
You keep showing that you don't understand; "once everyone is equal" that IS communism, as Marx intended it, as the 'end goal'. In socialism, not everyone and everything is equal YET. It's all a lot MORE equal than everywhere currently, but
there are still people with talent and luck accumulating more wealth than others.
It's just laying a base of equal opportunity for everyone.
We WON'T get there trusting politicians, this takes a broad consensus of people desiring equality enough, to let go of their greed and lust for power, and provide
equal opportunity and share ownership a lot more. It means that the powerful elite gives up a lot of their power and wealth. Nothing about this will be easy or progress automatically. PROGRESS ITSELF NEVER HAPPENS AUTOMATICALLY.
Added later:
Actually, I'm not so sure now that he is the monster your 'news' is making him out to be. His pardon was supported by the victim herself. During the June 2026 hearing, a victim advocate read aloud a letter written by the woman Tou Lue Vang had abused. In her letter, she stated: "What happened to me was wrong, but I've had many years to think about this. I have made my peace with it. I forgive him. That was a long time ago. It was over 20 years ago. He is not the same person now.”.
I don't want to hear you about this.
Very few people have common sense.
He was prostituting those girls to wealthy assholes. They need to face justice.
It's not happening, because Trump and Elon are very likely involved too.
If the FBI under Kash Patel is releasing files, I indeed don't trust them,
but fabricating the evidence with AI is even over the limit for Kash Patel.
He knows that he's an idiot who can never do that and hide it for ever.
Have you seen the level of amateurism of the censored released files?
It will come out eventually and if a Democrat is in office, he'll be toast.
The witnesses have forgotten NOTHING!! They have testified multiple times to multiple law enforcement agencies. They have been thwarted for many years,
which is a big red sign that powerful wealthy people are involved.
Your side didn't believe that Epstein killed himself in jail. You of course accused Clinton, while Donald Trump was the president at that time, and there are recordings of Epstein saying that he feared being killed by Trump, but you didn't believe the nonsense official story for a second.

Good point, although somewhat crudely communicated.
Lots of petty men said that women are too emotional,
and that's why they couldn't vote for Kamala Harris.
Trump has about 10 temper tantrums per day, 100 if you count his nightly tweets.
I've never seen Kamala Harris be that emotional, even once.
He doesn't care about you or anyone, but himself.

Hes not MUSLIM!
There are more Americans every day arguing that being gay should be illegal.
Maybe not slavery, but techno-feudalism isn't much fun either.
The manosphere considers women subservient to men.
They think that serving their husband is their only right.
Trump himself couldn't care less. He was pro-abortion for his whole life, until he needed the votes of the Christian fundamentalists.
"He's not Muslim" is a very low bar for a country that shouts FREEDOM from the rooftops.
By the way, there are lots of Muslims who care about freedom more than you.
That's why they protest their horrible regimes at the risk of death.
I don't see you fight for your freedoms like that.
What's the difference?

Don't agree? Argue why he's wrong.
The only hope is that there's enough room to accommodate some of the electorate's wishes.
to win an election, they might promise to do something for you, but as soon as they try, they get a phone call from their wealthy donor saying:
"Who the hell do you think you are working for?"
If their career only depends on your vote, their "what's in it for me" question
is the same as "what's in it for my voters". Of course, you also need to end their ability
to trade in individual stocks and end the 'revolving door'.
of independence celebrations. It's hard to see.
A poll showed that self-identified progressives broke heavily for Becerra, with 39% backing Becerra and only 29% preferring Steyer.
Progressive voters preferred Becerra's decades of institutional experience, specifically his 122 lawsuits defending liberal policies against the first Trump administration, over Steyer's outside corporate outsider platform.
When Swalwell dropped out, tracking polls showed that Becerra was widely viewed as the "least objectionable" second-choice alternative for mainstream Democrats.
A poll (CEPP) also showed that as trailing candidates like Katie Porter lost steam, a higher percentage of their voters strategically migrated to Becerra (37%) rather than Steyer (31%) to prevent a worst-case scenario where two Republicans advanced to November.
Voter trust was the single biggest obstacle Tom Steyer faced, and a widespread skepticism about whether a billionaire hedge fund titan would actually keep his populist, tax-the-rich promises ultimately tanked his campaign.
Current polls show Democrat Xavier Becerra with a commanding, double-digit lead
over Republican Steve Hilton.
As a result, average Americans keep getting poorer, which is also bad for the economy. In New York, the mayor is helping small businesses, which is much better for the incomes of ordinary Americans. Jobs in that sector are also far less vulnerable to the AI transition, than the jobs at Goldman Sachs.
By the way, ChatGPT says it's not true:
The short answer is: no, there is not strong evidence that businesses are leaving New York by the thousands because of Mayor Zohran Mamdani, and Goldman Sachs has not announced that it is leaving New York because of him.
A few important distinctions:
1) Warnings are not the same as departures.
Many business leaders, investors, and CEOs have warned that higher taxes or more regulation could encourage companies or wealthy residents to leave New York. For example, executives such as Jamie Dimon and Ken Griffin have expressed concerns about New York's competitiveness.
2) Goldman Sachs is not leaving New York.
I could not find any credible report that Goldman Sachs has decided to relocate its headquarters or exit New York because of Mamdani. In fact, reports indicate that Goldman CEO David Solomon met with Mamdani as part of an engagement effort rather than announcing a departure.
3) Some finance jobs have been moving to Texas for years.
Banks and financial firms—including Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, and others—have expanded in places like Dallas and Miami. But that trend began well before Mamdani became mayor and is driven by multiple factors: lower taxes, cheaper real estate, remote work, and business incentives. It would be misleading to attribute all of it to Mamdani.
4) The evidence for a mass exodus is mixed.
Some commentators and business groups claim an exodus is brewing, while others note that predictions of a Wall Street flight have repeatedly failed to materialize and that New York remains the dominant U.S. financial center. Several analyses argue that fears of an immediate business collapse are exaggerated.
New York's 7th Congressional District (Parts of Brooklyn and Queens):
Progressive Winner: Claire Valdez
Endorsed by Zohran Mamdani.
Valdez is a democratic socialist and former United Auto Workers (UAW) labor organizer who campaigned closely alongside Mayor Mamdani.
Defeated Establishment-backed Candidate Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso. Reynoso was the institutional favorite.
New York's 10th Congressional District (Manhattan and Brooklyn):
Progressive Winner: Brad Lander
Endorsed by Zohran Mamdani.
Defeated Establishment-backed two-term incumbent Rep. Dan Goldman. Goldman had strong backing from the Washington establishment, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who actively campaigned against Mamdani’s slate.
New York's 13th Congressional District (Upper Manhattan and the Bronx):
Progressive Winner: Darializa Avila Chevalier
Endorsed by Zohran Mamdani. Chevalier, a democratic socialist community organizer, was Mamdani's most fiercely defended and polarizing pick on the slate.
Defeated AIPAC-backed incumbent, Rep. Adriano Espaillat.
New York's 17th Congressional District:
Combat veteran Cait Conley won the primary to challenge GOP incumbent Mike Lawler. She ran a campaign centered on working-class affordability.
The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) ran their largest-ever coordinated slate on the exact same night for the New York State Legislature. Despite center-left Super PACs spending nearly $10 million to stop them, a wave of progressive challengers won their primaries, including:
- Aber Kawas (State Senate)
- Samantha Kattan (State Assembly)
- David Orkin (State Assembly)
- Eon Huntley (State Assembly)
- Christian Celeste Tate (State Assembly)
- Illapa Sairitupac (State Assembly)
Wanting to stop a genocide and land grabbing is not antisemitic.
(Most) People are not (completely) stupid, people recognize evil when they see it.
They didn't forget 9/11, they just see it done by your side 100x over.
National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir just said: "For every tear shed by an Israeli mother, a thousand Lebanese mothers must weep".
Not even the Nazis had a 1000:1 Retaliation ratio. They had a collective punishment ratio of 100 civilian executions for every German soldier killed by resistance fighters. That means that the Israeli government is TEN TIMES WORSE!!!
If your side didn't want 'that Muslim' coming in, your side could have given citizens
what they are asking for, which is to stop people going desperately poor.
It was Trump's choice to do that. People liked the slogan MAGA, but everyone but you understands now that it was just a stupid fucking lie.
These are Trump's most recent poll ratings:
30% approves
67% disapproves
Trump is stealing from the people and taking it for himself and his wealthy buddies.
He wants to increase the war budget to $ 1.5 TRILLION, after he promised "no more stupid wars!", and then cut their healthcare, education and everything else they need
to survive the modern world. What do you expect? There is a limit to even the stupidity of Americans. Your side has failed them just too fucking much, or they would not be happy to vote for a MUSLIM SOCIALIST!!!

No answer? Remember how your side was complaining about the price of eggs?
Can people afford them easier now? It's not just the price of eggs that makes that people can afford them. It's also what's left of their income, after they paid for rent or the mortgage, their power and water bill, sewer, trash collection, internet, mobile phone, their insurances including health insurance, childcare and education expenses if they have kids, the gas for their car and all other food.
Trump called their struggles to pay the bill A DEMOCRAT HOAX.
How many people agree with that?

You say you FEEL that you're better off now than you were.
Facts don't care about your feelings. You're duped!
Why do you think that you have more right to rights than other people?
Abortion and reproductive autonomy
• Reinstated policies limiting federal funding for abortion-related services.
• Reversed some Biden-era reproductive health policies.
• Critics argue this reduces women's ability to access abortion, particularly for lower-income patients.
Asylum and immigration protections
• Expanded deportation efforts and narrowed asylum eligibility.
• Critics argue this limits due process and the practical ability to seek refuge in the United States.
Rights of transgender people
• Federal policy has been changed to recognize only male and female biological sex in many contexts.
• Protections and recognition for transgender people have been reduced in areas such as federal documentation, education, and some government programs.
Demonstration and protest rights (particularly on campuses)
• The administration has directed agencies to take stronger action against certain campus protests, especially those connected to allegations of antisemitism, and has supported investigations and immigration consequences for some non-citizen protesters.
• Critics argue these measures chill political expression and assembly protected by the First Amendment, especially when based on political viewpoints. Supporters argue they target unlawful conduct or harassment rather than peaceful protest.
Freedom of the media
• President Trump has continued to publicly attack major news organizations and has pursued policies such as attempting to end federal funding for NPR and PBS, arguing they are politically biased.
• Critics contend these actions, together with lawsuits and regulatory pressure on media organizations, risk undermining press independence and creating a chilling effect, even though no general censorship law has been enacted.
Freedom of lawyers and legal advocacy
• Executive actions have targeted several major law firms by restricting access to government facilities, contracts, or security clearances because of their clients or prior work.
• Many legal scholars and courts have questioned whether these actions infringe First Amendment rights and the independence of the legal profession.
Voting access
• The administration has supported stricter voter eligibility verification measures, including proof-of-citizenship requirements for some registration processes.
• Critics argue these rules could disproportionately burden minority voters, including Black Americans, although they do not explicitly deny voting rights based on race.
Diversity and equal opportunity programs
• Federal DEI initiatives have been dismantled or prohibited in many agencies and grant programs.
• Critics argue this restricts efforts to remedy historical discrimination; supporters argue it removes preferential treatment and restores merit-based decision-making.
Birthright citizenship (attempted)
• The administration sought to limit automatic citizenship for some children born in the United States through executive action.
• The policy faces constitutional challenges and has not been definitively upheld.
Civil service independence
• Reforms have expanded presidential control over parts of the federal bureaucracy and reduced some protections for career officials.
• Critics argue this weakens institutional independence and could discourage dissent within government.
" I see protection of the rights for CITIZENS> and dei is not a right, it's government sponsored racism."
Why do you think that you have more right to rights than other people?
1) Demonstration and protest rights
This directly implicates the First Amendment.
The key debate is whether the administration's actions target unlawful conduct or whether they chill protected speech and assembly.
2) Freedom of the media
Freedom of the press is explicitly protected by the First Amendment.
The disagreement is over whether Trump's actions merely criticize the media or whether government pressure creates a chilling effect.
3) Freedom of lawyers and legal advocacy
This implicates rights of association, petition, due process, and the independence of legal representation.
The legal controversy exists precisely because constitutional rights may be involved.
4) Voting access
Voting is a fundamental right of citizens.
The dispute is not whether voting rights matter, but whether stricter verification requirements are legitimate election-security measures or unjustified barriers.
5) Birthright citizenship (attempted)
Citizenship itself is one of the most fundamental legal statuses in the US.
Trump is trying to turn CITIZENS into immigrants.
You once supported completely unlimited freedom of speech and now you are OK with taking away the rights of media that you consider biased. Previously you were OK with your media verifiably lying, and now you want unbiased media?
I say you're gaslighting; you see that there is someone in power now who can crush the speech of the other side, so you flip from your original position.
You keep saying "for me". You're not the only American CITIZEN.
Women, protesters, everyone using the media, everyone voting
and every American who needs a lawyer is a CITIZEN too.
How many lawyers does your president need?
I'm asking you for the third time:
Why do you think that you have more right to rights than other people?
If 'people' is too broad for you, OK limit it to 'citizens'.
Obviously, you think that non-citizens aren't people who deserve rights.
Your Constitution says otherwise, but we both know you don't care.
At least Republicans have stopped pretending they care about the Constitution.
There is a limit to gaslighting that even your side thinks is too much.
Democrats are citizens too. If you think they should lose their rights, don't cry when they take your rights, when they are in power again.
You're making yourself stupid by doing it, but that's your right.
I don't like either liberal media or right-wing media, I want OBJECTIVE media. There is less of it every day, because you let corporations and wealthy people buy up all the media, which means that they turn into propaganda for the wealthy.
If you are referring to media which has been shut down by algorithms like google, you're talking about the worst misinformation that ever existed. Regular right-wing nonsense gets incredible preferential treatment by Google, YouTube and Facebook. The algorithms actively suppress left-wing ideas, no matter how factual they are.
Anyway, that's not Government censorship, that's corporations deciding what they like to prop up and cut off.
as the objective truth. Being unbiased doesn't mean being neutral,
it means being OBJECTIVE.
There is only one truth, and you recognize it by using rationality;
recognizing facts, based on evidence, then using logical reasoning
to come to correct conclusions.
Your media doesn't do any of it. They just train you to trust them
and then fill your head with ideas that they want you to believe.
Your 'liberal' media is already worse than anything we have,
but your right-wing media is at the level of Russian propaganda.
Biden can be praised for listening to experts and signing the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) in 2022, allowing a historic release of oil from the SPR in 2022 to temporarily cool soaring gasoline prices, and allowing the Federal Reserve to aggressively raise interest rates to cool demand. The last was a difficult decision, because it didn't make him popular, but it was necessary according to the experts.
Trump can be criticized for raising inflation, by starting a tariff trade-war, that most experts were warning against. Tariffs can be a legitimate tool against unfair competition. However, Trump turned them into a blunt instrument and starting a trade war that resulted in exploding costs of living for Americans, retaliatory tariffs against U.S. exports, billions in farm bailouts, and increased economic uncertainty.
And when a president repeatedly makes market-moving announcements in an unpredictable way, while unusually well-timed trades appear around some of those announcements, people are inevitably going to ask who knew what and when.
There is no publicly proven insider trading by Trump or his family (yet), but he created
exactly the kind of opaque, volatility-driven environment that invites those suspicions.
You really think you are better off than if Harris had won? If you do you are blind to reality
No new wars? Well gee, the situation in 1979 was never really resolved, and Iran sponsors terror, there has been a literal war on terror since 2001 , oh i know, you have forgot about that. anyway, far as I am concerned the war on terror was already in effect and Trump is trying to stop it at the funding source. I was just in a discussion with a local farmer about cost of fertlyzer and how it was stuck in the strait of hurmuz due to iran. now that maybe it's open again, cost can come down. 1 nation does not need to be in a position to stop the world economy like that.
and he promised to not start wars like that.
You can try to defend it, but he broke that promise.
And he broke several more promises.
Unlike Democrats who break promises, Trump didn't even try to keep his',
he actively did the opposite of what he promised.
In any case, his war with Iran is your worst failure in decades.
He didn't achieve ANYTHING that he presented as goals for it.
Your own words show Trump's utter incompetence.
Trump did NOTHING to prevent Iran from having nukes.
He only showed them that they desperately need them, for self defense.
Are the Iranian people freed of their dictatorship? NO!
Are we sure that Iran doesn't make nukes? LESS SO!
Trump is now negotiating with the very people he taught not to trust him.
Trump killed Iran's pragmatists and strengthened the hardliners who argued
that America could never be trusted.
The very Iranians who dreamed of freedom and looked to America for help, have buried family and friends, watched hope give way to fear, and may emerge from this crisis less free, more fearful, and more distrustful of the United States, than ever.

If the criterion is "which arrangement appears better for preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon?", then most nonproliferation experts would currently rate the 2015 JCPOA's published verification regime as stronger and more proven than the publicly known terms of the 2026 framework, because the newer framework's inspection and enforcement details are not yet fully public.
🟩 = Better for Western nuclear security
🟥 = Worse for Western nuclear security
1) Nuclear inspections and verification
🟩 Obama JCPOA (2015):
Extensive monitoring by the IAEA.
Continuous surveillance of key nuclear facilities.
Detailed procedures for investigating suspicious activities.
Verification provisions were written into the agreement.
🟥 Trump Framework (2026):
Publicly known inspection provisions are less detailed.
Many verification mechanisms are still being negotiated or have not been released publicly.
It is not yet clear whether inspections will be as intrusive as under the JCPOA.
2) Limits on uranium enrichment
🟩 Obama JCPOA (2015):
Enrichment capped at low levels suitable for civilian use.
Clear numerical limits on enrichment and stockpiles.
Breakout time (time needed to produce bomb fuel) was significantly extended.
🟥 Trump Framework (2026):
Public descriptions have been inconsistent regarding whether Iran may retain any enrichment capability.
Final enrichment limits are not yet fully defined publicly.
3) Limits on enriched uranium stockpiles
🟩 Obama JCPOA (2015):
Strict caps on how much enriched uranium Iran could possess.
Excess material had to be shipped out or diluted.
🟥 Trump Framework (2026):
Discussions include reducing or removing highly enriched stockpiles.
Publicly available details are less specific and less developed.
4) Confidence that Iran is not secretly building a bomb
🟩 Obama JCPOA (2015):
Relied on a large inspection and monitoring infrastructure.
Created a structured system for detecting violations.
🟥 Trump Framework (2026):
There is currently less publicly available information demonstrating an equivalent monitoring system.
Confidence depends heavily on provisions that have not yet been fully disclosed.
5) Economic concessions to Iran
🟩 Obama JCPOA (2015):
Sanctions relief was phased and linked to verified compliance.
Benefits were tied to specific nuclear obligations.
🟥 Trump Framework (2026):
Potentially larger economic benefits, including discussion of a fund reportedly around $300 billion and broader sanctions relief.
Critics argue this provides more upfront leverage to Iran for fewer publicly known nuclear restrictions.
6) Ballistic missiles
🟨 Obama JCPOA (2015):
Did not eliminate Iran's missile force.
Missile restrictions were mostly handled through separate UN measures.
🟨 Trump Framework (2026):
Does not appear to require immediate dismantlement of Iran's missile arsenal.
Future missile limits may be negotiated.
Result: Roughly a tie from a nuclear-safety perspective.
7) Overall nuclear safeguards
🟩 Obama JCPOA (2015):
Fully negotiated.
Detailed technical annexes.
Years of implementation experience.
Clear verification architecture.
🟥 Trump Framework (2026):
Still evolving.
Many key technical details remain unclear.
Public information does not yet show safeguards that are demonstrably stronger than the JCPOA.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Um, you would think AI would be trained to be unbiased but no,even it leans left, now how is a young person wanting to learn and understand politics going to get a good understanding of both sides when the tool used the most nowadays for answers is left leaning?

AI is logical, that is why Elon is struggling so much to turn it right-wing.
Understand that the passive income of a trillion dollars is $137 million per DAY. That means that he can buy 350 average American houses per DAY. He is not doing that, he prefers to buy companies, which increase his influence in the world. Other multi-billionaires are indeed buying houses and farms.
Just six years ago, the wealthiest man in the world was Jeff Bezos. He owned $100 billion in assets. Today, the wealthiest man in the world owns at least TEN TIMES as much.
Did your wealth grow by ten times in the last six years?
In another six years, will the wealthiest man in the world own $ 10 trillion?
And 12 years from now? Will the wealthiest man in the world then own 100 trillion dollars?
The total value of everything in the US is estimated to be around 200 trillion dollars.
When do you think this will be owned by just a few wealthy men?
What will become of you, if everything in your country is owned by a few wealthy men?
Do you understand the power that they will hold over you?
Slaves had plenty of jobs too. Under feudalism, people worked 10-14 hrs/day

People escaped their exploitation by resisting it.
You are doing the opposite.
They are not MAKING that kind of money, they are EXTRACTING IT.
People like you are turning everything into wealth transfer to the 0.1%.
You are defending a guy becoming a trillionaire from electric cars and space,
which are things that you considered completely useless before, and is funded
by tax-dollars for a big chunk.
liberals and lefties would not vote for him.
You voted in the most crooked president ever.
The result is that your president is doing the bidding of Putin and Netanyahu,

This will help Jewish New Yorkers through prevention, victim support, education, community partnerships, and coordination across agencies, rather than primarily through increased policing.
Some examples of what the city's hate-crime prevention offices already do:
- Work with Jewish organizations and other community groups to identify threats and respond to incidents.
- Support victims of antisemitic incidents and improve reporting of hate crimes.
- Fund community projects, interfaith initiatives, and educational programs intended to reduce antisemitism and other forms of bias before they escalate into crimes.
- Coordinate responses among agencies such as the NYPD, Commission on Human Rights, schools, and district attorneys.
- Improve hate-crime data collection, training, and outreach to communities that may underreport incidents.
Mamdani explicitly justified the increase by noting that Jewish New Yorkers suffer a disproportionate share of the city's hate crimes.
You are the one voting in the fascists. Your president is literally quoting Hitler, dining with Nazis, retweeting KKK-propaganda and calling neo-Nazis "fine people". They are little busy with putting immigrants in concentration camps, reinstating Jim Crow laws and planning criminalization of gays, but they will surely get back to killing Jews, as soon as they have created the promised land. They don't believe that the promised land belongs to the Jews, it's intended for Christians, after the Rapture.

that future suffering people will ask him: “Did you try and do anything?”.

Why would they take money from people who lost their homes and waste it on something like that?
All those Republican guys retiring have suddenly found a spine and a pair of balls and they are out for revenge…
Ok,so democrats and liberals have spent years telling us there are NO illegals on medicare or medicaid. BUT YET when someone starts looking around and using the info to find them, they get upset? WHY? there aren't supposed to be any on it, so if there is,why not get them off something they don't belong on?
The objection is that the medical data of millions of Americans would be exposed without regard to their privacy.
Also, and this is just an aside, Medicare is available only to those that are 65 or older and Medicare has to be approved on an individual basis and the person has to qualify.
And before you say,” I told you so”. Let me remind you that there are countless **** teenagers getting liquor using fake IDs. You don’t hand over all the data of state DMVs to a government that wants to control them.
People don't trust your administration, for good reason.
The first thing it did, was letting a billionaire and his boys go through
everyone's private information unchecked.
This is why my country's House of Representatives has voted by a large majority
to block the purchase of Solvinity by the American company Kyndryl.
Solvinity provides a key role in our DigiD services. We don't trust THIS America
with our Digital Identity for government services.
And why would we? The American people don't even trust their own government
with their information, to have a Digital Identity for government services themselves.

"The sanctuary state policy is designed to make sure that our state resources, the taxpayer dollars, the public servants that we have, are focusing on doing their jobs — which is not cooperating with the federal immigration authorities. IN other words no respect for federal law.
They have ignored hundreds of judge rulings and even the supreme court.
California is protesting that.
by your administration and ICE, multiple times already.
Federal immigration authorities cannot just attack and kidnap random people
off the streets. They are consistently ignoring the 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th, 9th, 10th
and 14th amendments, which are all fixed in federal and state laws.
Ask any AI of your choice about it. Do SOMETHING to inform yourself.
I am Dutch, you are American. Why do I care about your Constitutional protections, more than YOU? Do you still remember caring about the Constitution once?
The 5th Amendment says no PERSON can be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process.
The 14th Amendment guarantees equal protection to any PERSON within a state’s jurisdiction.
Why the last? You know you will loose the argument?
So yes, illegals should be arrested and sent back home, but ICE is breaking the law by assuming everyone is 'illegal until proven innocent' and deporting lots of people without a fair legal process. You have masked men, attacking people on the streets with impunity, and you only accept this from Trump, because you are a cult.
Your side has fearmongered for decades that Democrats would do something like this, and now it's your side acting like the fucking STASI, you just let them take away your constitutional rights. Well, REAL Americans will say 'not on our watch', in November.
And the only reason Joe Biden let them all in is they ( the illegal alien) are all potential dem voters. Now shut the fuck up and mind your own damn business.
It is however NOT true at all.
1. Immigration violations are NOT criminal offenses requiring jail before a judge.
Entering the U.S. without authorization is a CIVIL violation, not a criminal one. Immigration courts are administrative courts, NOT criminal courts.
So the claim “all illegal aliens are accused of committing a crime and must be held”
is LEGALLY FALSE.
2. Non‑citizens, including undocumented migrants, have constitutional due‑process rights.
The Fifth Amendment protects "all persons", not just citizens. Courts have repeatedly affirmed that non‑citizens are entitled to DUE PROCESS, including the right to challenge removal.
So the idea that they can be detained or deported without judicial review is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
3. Trump’s policies explicitly reduced access to immigration judges.
Multiple legal organizations document that Trump’s administration has:
- Expanded expedited removal, which bypasses immigration judges entirely.
- Stripped access to attorneys, making fair hearings nearly impossible.
- Implemented “grant and deport” and similar policies, that remove people without proper hearings.
This directly contradicts the claim that “everyone gets seen by a judge.”
4. Trump has carried out mass deportations without normal asylum procedures.
Asylum is a LEGAL RIGHT under U.S. and international law.
But Trump has:
- Restricted or ended asylum access, even for people legally presenting at ports of entry.
- Deported people en masse, including those with valid claims.
This means people are being removed BEFORE they can make their legal case.
5. Deporting people to dangerous third countries without hearings violates due process.
The American Immigration Council documents that Trump has attempted to deport people under the 'Alien Enemies Act' without hearings, a practice that the Supreme Court rejected.
This directly disproves the claim that deportations only occur "after" a judge decides.
6. Immigration courts are overwhelmed; millions wait years for hearings.
There are 3.5 million pending cases, and DHS prioritizes only certain categories.
Claiming that “everyone is held until they see a judge” is impossible and factually untrue.
7. Trump’s policies have broken the immigration court system. Legal experts report:
- Massive “mega‑hearings” with 100+ people at once.
- Hearings appearing without notice.
- Structural changes undermining fairness.
This is the opposite of a system ensuring due process.
Joe Biden did NOT let them all in. They are also not all potential dem voters,
many of them are very conservative. How about the Cuban immigrants?
And don't be a fucking snowflake, this is not a MAGA safe space.
It's pretty damn humiliating that a foreigner has to correct you on your own laws.
Just vote for politicians who obey the law and don't lie to cover up for them.
Your opinions dont matter and I really dont care about them. You are not here to see and feel the affects of illegal immigration. The constant begging in the streets the homeless camps that have piles of trash around them. The illegal immigration policies of the last administration allowed many criminals and terrorists to come into our country and if it takes getting ALL illegals rounded up and sending them back to get these terrorists and criminals out then so be it.
Obama deported more people than Trump yet no one says a word about that. Obama is the one who separated families he started that policy. Trump gets the blame.
I can clearly see that you lean way left. For most policies
I am a centrist. Believing in what the constitution says,
Immigration law here may be broken but its all that we have. The immigration courts have been overwhelmed for many years not just under Trump.
Cubans are a very small amount of the illegals to come here. Chinese came here in vast numbers many connected to cartels, they set up drug labs and create violence here. An apartment complex near where I used to live was shut down and because Tren de Aragua took it over, I witnessed that, I saw the guns I saw friends terrorized for "rent". I saw a once beautiful complex trashed by illegals. From my backyard. Many times I heard gun fire and hoped and prayed no one was hurt. I helped move some friends out under poluce guard to safer locations. I
You are not a centrist, you are far right.
If not, what is the difference between you and the right-wingers here?
What's your opinion on abortion, gay-marriage or LGTBQ-rights in general, religious freedom/secular government? Do you at least have the “leave me alone / I’ll leave you alone” philosophy for that? I think I've seen you support the MAGA idea on that as well. Maybe I've missed some of your centrist ideas, but if you
don't want to say...
You have supported the hard right-wing line on all these issues and I have NEVER seen you push back on extreme right-wing ideas of the MAGA loyalists.
If you don't have ANY differences of opinion with MAGA, then you are MAGA.
If you STILL like Trump more than Obama, than you are MAGA or just a racist.
The only thing Obama did was being half black, while Trump is telling and reposting KKK/NeoNazi propaganda. He is even using Hitler's retoric.
There is even en exodus from hard-line MAGA loyalists at this moment. He is bleeding his base. Only hardcore MAGA is still supporting and defending him.
You think of your own ideas as common sense, because you get fed them 24/7.
If you watch any other ideas, it's only for rage-bait. Face it, you're NOT a centrist.
If you cannot tell me anything concrete about your disagreements with the right and your agreements with the left, than you are NOT a centrist.
I indeed lean way left. I am an active member of the Socialist Party. I don't pretend to be anything else. I just don't have all the straw-man ideas that your side puts
on the left. The Socialist Party addressed tensions around immigration and multiculturalism before the issue became mainstream in Dutch politics, while center-right and right-wing parties supported large-scale labor migration during the postwar economic boom, because employers demanded additional low-wage labor. The SP is still the most anti-labor immigration party and proposes real policies to reduce it, while our populist right-wingers didn't get anything done,
in the year they dominated politics until they pulled the plug. They tried illegal policies together with CUTS on the Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND), the agency that is needed to send back asylum seekers that don't have a legitimate claim for asylum. That only worsens the problems we face.
That's INTENTIONAL, because they need problems from asylum seekers for people to keep voting for them. They don't want solutions, they want problems.
In the meantime, they betrayed all the other promises they made to their voters.
The only difference between them and Trump is that Trump is doing everything that the law and Constitution should protect against, while our Rule of Law held.
On everything else, he is betraying his voters completely. If you don't see that,
or you keep defending it, than you are NOT a centrist. Or very stupid.
If I am wrong on any of your ideas, I'm here for it.
It provides more time to implement a new law rather than just slamming the door and prompting huge, depilating expenses.

Major Zohran Mamdani is eliminating lots of regulation that is NOT designed to protect Consumers, Workers, Competitors, Innovators, Local communities or The public health, but has skewed to favor large corporations instead. Or they are indeed intended to protect the citizens, but their implementation was very inefficient. He manages to simplify or eliminate regulation, WITHOUT negative effects on the people who regulations should protect.
The Newsmax article focuses entirely on financial relief for supermarkets, failing to mention significant downsides for the environment, public health, workers, and industry innovators. By delaying the transition away from high-potency hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants from 2027 to 2032, the rule change allows super-pollutants that trap thousands of times more heat than carbon dioxide to leak into the atmosphere for an extra five years, worsening the long-term public health impacts of climate change.
Furthermore, the decision actively punishes domestic manufacturers and innovators who already spent billions of dollars to develop eco-friendly alternatives ahead of the original deadline, leaving their investments stranded while foreign competitors advance.
Finally, changing the rules mid-game creates confusion for HVAC technicians and workers trying to manage inconsistent standards, and because the legal supply of legacy chemicals is still shrinking, the delay could actually trigger severe supply shortages and higher repair bills for local businesses.
Potassium bromate is already banned in the EU, Canada, China, India, and California because of cancer concerns. This would be something that Robert F. Kennedy Jr would ban, if he actually believed in protecting the citizens from harmful chemicals in food.
from being poisoned, and he didn't get it. He's defending deregulation, by saying
that the poor 'small' business New York Pizza will be harmed, if the evil socialist
forces them to stop poisoning consumers. And it isn't even true.
No sign of understanding that this wasn't his best argument ever
and no sign that he will learn anything from being this wrong either.
If these owners of pizza restaurants don't know how to make a pizza without potassium bromide maybe they should consider a career change.
It's like when Domino's famously overhauled its entire core recipe in the US around 2009 to 2010 after publicly admitting their crust "tasted like cardboard", their expansion into Europe required a completely different, long-term operational
and chemical shift.
Here's what Domino's had to do to get Europeans to eat their pizza:
1. Cleaner Ingredients (Regulatory Adjustments): American fast-food dough relies heavily on sugars, artificial dough conditioners, and preservatives to survive long shipping times. Because European Union regulations strictly restrict or ban many
of these chemicals, Domino's had to completely strip down its recipe to a much simpler, cleaner formula.
2. Less Sugar, Lighter Texture (Taste Preferences): European consumers overwhelmingly rejected the heavy, dense, and sweet "cake-like" crusts popular in the United States. To match local continental palates, the company formulated lighter, crispier, and more authentic "Italian-style" thin crusts.
3. Fresh, Local Supply Chains (Logistical Shift): In the U.S., dough is heavily chilled and shipped long distances from centralized factories. Because Europeans expect fresh bread, Domino's had to reinvent its logistics by building local regional hubs
in Europe to deliver fresh, unfrozen dough daily, or by shifting to mixing the dough directly inside the local stores.
Having worked in Italian/Pizzarestaurants for decades I can assure you that undercooked pizza is not as uncommon as you may think.

People are not defined by their religion, but by their actions. If you cared about
The Constitution, you would understand that.
I am not fine with a traitor who attempted a coup, lying his ass off to fool the people into voting for him, while a billionaire is spending hundreds of millions in an illegal bribing campaign, then directly after getting elected starting to misuse his powers, abusing the immunity he got from his political pawns, and doing the exact opposite of everything
he promised and promised not to do.

The Speaker of the House does not have the constitutional or statutory authority to command, deploy, or decline the National Guard. Because Washington, D.C. is not a state, the D.C. National Guard answers directly to the President, who delegates that command to the Secretary of the Army (Ryan McCarthy) and the Secretary of Defense (Christopher Miller).
Capitol security is managed by the Capitol Police Board, which on January 6th consisted of the Capitol Police Chief, the House Sergeant at Arms, and the Senate Sergeant at Arms. While the House Sergeant at Arms reported to Pelosi, the Senate Sergeant at Arms reported to Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. There is no evidence in the official DoD or Capitol Police logs that a formal request for 10,000 troops was ever submitted to or blocked by Pelosi or McConnell prior to the event.
His claim "I was there, so I know that it's Pelosi's fault!" is BULLSHIT.
He is just parroting the lies of your corrupt partisan media.
But, yes, the calls of Pelosi and Schumer went unanswered for a long time.
According to the official Department of Defense (DoD) logs and congressional investigations, Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senator Chuck Schumer called the Pentagon at 3:19 p.m. to frantically demand immediate military backup.
The calls made by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senator Chuck Schumer, and other congressional leaders to the Pentagon were answered, and the Department of Defense (DoD) did eventually act on them. However, there was a 3.5-hour delay between the time the Capitol perimeter was breached and the time the National Guard actually arrived on the scene.
The delay was caused by the following chain of events:
Political Hesitation Over "Optics": Top Army generals delayed approval because they were intensely worried about the political appearance of sending heavily armed, uniform military forces into the U.S. Capitol, fearing it would look like a military coup or escalate the riot.
Paralyzing Bureaucracy: Rather than issuing an immediate command to move, Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy forced the D.C. National Guard to stay on "standby" for over two hours while a rigid, formal tactical operational plan was drafted and routed through the Pentagon chain of command.
Logistical Re-Equipping: The 340 Guardsmen already on the streets of D.C. that morning had been strictly ordered by the Pentagon to remain completely unarmed and handle traffic control. When the crisis hit, these troops had to be recalled to the D.C. Armory, completely re-equipped with riot shields, armor, and gear, and briefed on an entirely new mission before they could deploy.
President Trump did NOT make any calls to order or accelerate the deployment during the attack. The final order to clear the Capitol was pushed forward by Vice President Mike Pence from his secure bunker, and Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller eventually signed the official deployment order at 4:32 p.m., leading to the Guard's arrival at 5:20 p.m.
Basically, it took the National Guard so long to react to an ongoing coup attempt,
because they were afraid that your side would accuse them of a military coup or
that they were forced to create a bloodbath to stop it. What the fuck is their job?

If employers treated their employees fairly, you wouldn't have a need for unions.
--------------------------------------- added after 11 hours
Personally, I'm not a member of a union, because my employer treats its employees fairly. My girlfriend is a member of a union, because her employer treats its employees less fairly.
Most employers in the US treat their employees a lot less fairly than my girlfriend's employer.
Therefore, I encourage American employees to be a member of a union.
It's possible that some American unions suck, or have horrible management. If so, find one that is better, or organize your collective union membership to make it better, or join or organize the creation of a new union.
When other people disrespect your life, livelihood and property.
When do you need unions?
When your employers disrespect your life, livelihood and property.
You are supporting a president who is 'defunding' the 'employer police'.
And you think that employees shouldn't organize their own.
That's asking for employers who disrespect the life, livelihood and property
of employees EVEN MORE.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By the way the slogan 'defund the police' was not about dismantling the police, it was about transferring tasks away from the armed police, including the funds related to those tasks, TOWARDS OTHER specialized public services like mental health responders, social workers, housing support, and crisis intervention teams. The reason is to achieve that many nonviolent social and mental-health crises are handled more safely and effectively by specialized public services, than by armed police trained primarily for enforcement and control.
“If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.”
Police are trained for enforcement, so when they handle social crises, they may treat them as threats requiring force, instead of care or service problems, which often result in unnecessary escalation, injury, trauma, or death, including cases where autistic children or people in mental-health crises have been shot and/or killed by police.

- Deregulatory and industry-friendly policy direction
- Current condition: Weakened on enforcement priorities
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration
- Deregulatory and industry-friendly policy direction
- Current condition: Weakened regulatorily
Securities and Exchange Commission
- More business-friendly enforcement priorities
- Reduced emphasis on aggressive corporate accountability
- Current condition: Less aggressive toward corporations and executives

Income from a job is not all about the hourly wage.
It is about the benefits as well. Such as the retirement I am finally able to draw,and the health care .
If employes make themselves valuable to the employer, they will earn a decent wage. If they go in to work with a newspaper and coffee cup and sit on their ass, they don't.
You haven't been around postal workers have you? Laziest bunch of sumbitches that ever drew a breath. and it takes a act of God to fire them. theft, can't fire, come to work dressed like a freak, can't fire them, don't half work, can't fire them. You almost have to kill someone while on the job to even be drug tested, because of the damn union.
You would think he is a billionaire shareholder, instead of low-income working class
who was almost killed by a system that shits on the working class.
in the world, paid for out of people's paychecks to enrich the shareholders of
insurance companies.
By letting employers provide employees health insurance, they have leverage
over their employees, which reduces the negotiation power of employees and
restricts the movement of employees to better jobs.
This reduces the competition of employers for working people, resulting in lower pay
and lesser benefits.
You are just so warped by your system you can't see the forest for the trees. EARN your wage, don't demand it.

They have to pay for it somehow and it's not coming out of their profit.

rather pathetic, he is supposed to support his city and it's people.
“ New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has made a definitive decision. He will not attend the Israel Day Parade on May 31. This single act marks him as the first mayor in 61 years to ever skip this pivotal event.
Yet, there's a crucial distinction he wants you to understand. Mayor Mamdani has confirmed that the city will still provide full security for the parade. All necessary permits will be issued, ensuring the event can proceed safely.”
He’s not stopping the parade and he’s providing full security and proper permits. The parade or one of its forms was started in 1964 to recognize Israel and show support by United States Jews. That’s okay. We have thousands of parades from religious to sexual orientation types. This mayor is a Muslim and such he has every right not to attend the celebration of a state deeply opposed to his ethnicity. HE is the one not going, not the city.
Your comment showed how biased you are against this man because of his religion. That, sir, shows your character.

Here is some love shown by zohrans brethren,

Celebrating the creation of the state of Israeli has NOTHING to do with that.
Most New Yorkers don't support Israel's Zionism.
That's one of the reasons for why they voted for him.
Major Zohran Mamdani is a progressive Democrat and he is representing democratic, progressive values, which means rejecting Israel's genocide. He is NOT joining a celebration of 'love for Israel', to cuddle the pro-genocide crowd.
By attending that celebration, he would reject all the New Yorkers who do NOT support
the actions of Israel, which is the large majority of Democratic voters and even the large majority of the American people.
U.S.-wide Gallup polling on Israel’s military action in Gaza found:
32% approve
60% disapprove
Zohran Mamdani is doing a terrific job in New York.
He has already solved the $12 billion deficit that he inherited.
He did that, without cutting ANY important services that his people rely on.
He has secured $1.2 billion for the Universal Child Care he promised.
He is going after scummy landlords.
He has fixed 100,000 potholes in his first 100 days.
He is funding public libraries with $31.7 million.
He is supporting small businesses by slashing red tape, reducing fines, and revamping funding.
The city helped mom-and-pop shops avoid more than $6 million in fines and fees through 1,100 advisory visits. This builds on his Executive Order designed to simplify more than 6,000 city regulations and reduce penalty costs.
He launched an $80 million NYC Future Fund, lowering interest rates to 7.5% and reducing minimum loan sizes to
$25,000 to ensure businesses with lower operating revenues can secure funding.
Through Business Express Service Teams (BEST), the city has provided hundreds of
one-on-one consultations and pro bono legal services to help owners bypass bureaucratic hurdles and costly penalties.
If any Republican politician even came close to supporting their constituents like that, you would praise them to high heaven. You can't do that, because none of them are actually supporting their constituents, but they are paying back their wealthy donors for supporting them, by taking from their constituents and giving presents to the wealthy donors.
"is it not a mayors job to unify his city's people"
Yes, fostering unity is part of a mayor's job—but not the core or overriding one.
What part of that is so hard to understand?
Effective mayors do promote cohesion where possible:
After disasters, riots, or tragedies, symbolic leadership and calm messaging help restore order.
Policies that broadly improve quality of life (lower crime, better schools, jobs, clean streets) create organic unity through shared success rather than rhetoric.
Treating residents as citizens under equal rules, rather than pitting groups against each other (by race, class, ideology, or neighborhood).
treating citizens as equals, um,

take em in,let em out to kill again.
I don't want a punitive system, I want a restorative/preventative justice system.
I want criminals to be rehabilitated and suspects to be innocent until proven guilty,
and not to be detained indefinitely because they might commit a crime in the future.
That could indeed cause some harm, but that is the price of freedom.
You accept a much higher price of the 2nd amendment freedom that you care about.
Why then do I not support the pardoning of the capital attackers?
Because it's not restorative/preventative for a president to give a signal that
committing crimes IN HIS NAME is permitted or even rewarded.
The U.S. recidivism rate is around 70%, while Scandinavian countries typically range from 20% to 40%, depending on the country and measurement method.
A system like theirs is more expensive per convict, but the entire system costs far less overall, because dramatically lower recidivism means:
- fewer people in prison
- shorter sentences
- fewer repeat incarcerations
- lower policing and court costs
- fewer social costs from crime
- less criminals = more productive citizens

created by my own country, directly after WWII, with all the 50 pro-freedom countries joining together, to help prevent future wars and promote international cooperation,
acting against us right now?"
Your president and his followers are dangerous lunatics.
If the state can pay to destroy, the state can pay to keep and maintain.
These are mostly cling peaches, a special variety grown for canning, not the fresh peaches you see in grocery stores. California growers planted them specifically to supply large processors like Del Monte under long-term contracts. When Del Monte shut down its canneries and entered bankruptcy, growers suddenly lost one of the few major buyers capable of handling huge harvest volumes.
Why not just sell the orchards or let another company buy the peaches?
There are very few canneries left in the U.S. that process cling peaches at scale.
Building or reopening a cannery is extremely expensive and labor-intensive.
Imported canned peaches from countries with lower labor costs have squeezed profits for years.
Orchards cost money every year to irrigate, prune, and maintain, even if fruit goes unsold.
Trees take years to mature, so growers can’t quickly switch varieties or crops.
In many cases, removing the trees is actually the least financially damaging option.
The USDA aid program is essentially acknowledging that some orchards are no longer economically viable under current market conditions.
Some orchards may eventually be replanted with: almonds, pistachios, solar projects, or other crops with better economics and water returns.
That's your only reason to call the USA 'great'.
The US is the biggest bully and Americans are exploited the most. Congratulations!
You might think that's enough for your pride, that's your call,
but on everything else, the USA is mediocre at best.
The average American is suffering for that military and your wealthy.
If you compare the bottom 50% of Americans with the bottom 50% of European:
- Those Americans are working more hours than the citizens of ~23–25 EU countries.
- Those Americans have a lower Quality of Life than the citizens of ~20–25 EU countries.
There are only 27 EU countries.
That means that the USA might be great, but NOT for the bottom 50% of Americans.
Everything great that the US ever was, was tied to keeping control of both.
As soon as the American people started losing control, your lives started to suck.
Then you voted away all your control and gave it to the wealthy.
Since none of you are wealthy, that will result in your lives sucking more.
Your lives will continue to get worse, every single day, until you take back control.
Explain why it's applicable to what I said.
You know, when you use an accusation like that, it only packs a punch when it’s rare, when you use it all the time, it just becomes noise.
My king is a nice guy, who tries his best to unite our people. There, happy now?
You have just accused Biden of racist remarks,
while you do not give a crap about all Trump's racist remarks.
You are someone who says you have particular moral beliefs (rejecting racism), but you behave in a way that shows these are not sincere (only accusing the other side of racism, while denying the rampant in-your-face racism on your own side).
That is the definition of hypocrisy.
A hypocrite is a person who acts in direct contradiction to their stated beliefs, morals, or virtues, often pretending to be better than they are to deceive or manipulate others. This behavior involves inconsistency, blame, pretense, or complacency, such as lecturing others on rules they do not follow themselves.
Everything you've said have been subjective without showing anything... Everything you've said up to this point is propaganda. You live in your twisted world of attacking people's character. I feel you are cat52!.. You take part in supporting racists comments yet you call others racist to divert...
My whole family is just like you.. Liberals...I cut ties with them all. You say Donald Trump is a racist.. I ask "what confirms your assertions of him being racist?" They don't give me any examples to substantiate but they say "Many Times" Still not getting into specifics.. It is a behavioral pattern ,,, just like yours.
From these patterns of behavior I feel that you have narcissistic personality disorder. You are a filthy disease that spreads all over infesting your filth...Keep in mind this is not personal. I'm just using patterns and sequences. You are one person where it is better to be isolated from populations, children, and people that grow to make themselves adults with critical thinking.
If you are isolated,,, stay isolated.
I called you out for not being able to justify calling me a hypocrite, and you are saying "Everything you've said", and then you say that your liberal family answers you "Many Times" Still not getting into specifics..", exactly like you are doing.
Do you even realize you did that?
You say that you base your values on empathy and altruism, but you are the least empathic person I have ever met. You refuse to understand anything someone says and straw-man other people constantly. You have just stopped posting a torrent of obscenities and slanders. How is that being empathic and altruistic? There was no reason for it, other than you being ill-tempered and vindictive.
And you support Trump, the biggest narcissist to ever enter your politics. He is also the least altruistic person to ever enter your politics. He is all about posing himself as a wealthy successful man. The guy has a golden toilet, for crying out loud.
He is famous for the catchphrase "You're Fired!".
As president, he is constantly throwing his own officials in front of the bus. I know they are stupid, but HE hired them. He NEVER takes responsibility for that.
I am giving real examples all the time. I just did about the racism.
You can find even more, by just asking ChatGPT: "give me a list of racist things Trump has said or posted since the 1st of January 2025". And you can ask it for evidence too. Most is on video.
You are not going to do that, because you want to live in a fantasy world.
Examples of Trump being a narcissist:
- Talking about his Mar-a-Lago ballroom immediately after being asked about the murder of Charlie Kirk.
- Sharpie-altering a hurricane forecast map to defend his claim that Alabama would be hit by Hurricane Dorian.
- Holding a press conference at his golf club and repeatedly promoting the property while discussing COVID-19.
- Ordering the military parade in Washington
- Constantly visiting and promoting his own golf resorts while president, including hosting official events there.
- Refusing to concede the 2020 election after losing to Joe Biden and repeatedly insisting he actually won.
- Signing stimulus checks during the pandemic with his name printed on them, something no previous president had done.
- Displaying the presidential seal at campaign-style rallies and events at his own properties.
- Replacing official White House photos with larger portraits of himself during his presidency.
- Pushing to hold the 2020 G7 summit at his own resort Trump National Doral Miami.
- Calling reporters during disasters and briefings but pivoting conversations back to praise of his own performance.
- Frequently interrupting briefings so officials would praise him, especially during early COVID briefings.
- Continuing to promote and sell merchandise branded with his own name while holding office.
- Displaying large banners with his own name at official events and relief visits.
- Accepting (fake) 'piece prizes' that he didn't earn.
- When a reporter expresses condolences and asks how he’s doing after Kirk’s death: “very good!”, then immediately pivots to pointing out construction trucks and bragging about the new White House ballroom project.

Talking about his inauguration crowd being the biggest ever and repeatedly arguing about crowd photos.
During COVID briefings: praising his own response repeatedly (“I give myself a 10 out of 10”).
Examples of Trump being the opposite of altruistic:
Before becoming president:
- Shutting down the Donald J. Trump Foundation after a New York investigation found it repeatedly used charity funds to settle business lawsuits and buy personal items.
- Ordered to pay $2 million in damages to charities after a court found he misused the Trump Foundation’s money for political purposes (2019 settlement).
- Using foundation money to buy a $10,000 portrait of himself that was hung in one of his golf clubs.
- Using charity funds to pay a $258,000 legal settlement for a lawsuit involving his Mar-a-Lago club.
- Holding a fundraiser for veterans during the 2016 campaign but delaying distribution of some funds, prompting questions from reporters.
- Running the real-estate seminar business Trump University, which paid $25 million to settle fraud lawsuits brought by former students.
- Repeatedly refusing to rent apartments to Black tenants, leading to a 1973 discrimination lawsuit by the U.S. Department of Justice against the Trump family’s housing company.
- Aggressively litigating small contractors who said they were underpaid, a pattern documented in hundreds of disputes with workers and small businesses.
While president:
- Attempting to repeal the Affordable Care Act without ANY replacement plans.
- Ending cost-sharing subsidies that helped low-income Americans afford health insurance.
- Supporting court challenges to the ACA that would have removed protections for people with pre-existing conditions.
- Rolling back Medicaid expansion incentives that states used to cover poor residents.
- Passing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which disproportionately benefited corporations and high-income households.
- Proposing repeated cuts to programs like food stamps (SNAP) in federal budgets.
- Trying to impose stricter work requirements for Medicaid and food assistance, which critics said would remove benefits from millions of low-income people.
- Implementing the “zero tolerance” immigration policy that led to family separations at the border, separating thousands of migrant children from parents.
- Reducing refugee admissions to historically low levels, including cuts to programs that admitted children fleeing war.
- Ending protections for some immigrant youths under Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)
- Reducing environmental regulations, which critics said disproportionately harm low-income communities.
- Using hotels and resorts he owned for government business, raising conflict-of-interest concerns.
- Ending / cutting AIDS aid to Africa
- Ending federal funding for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Consortium, a network of hospitals running clinical trials for aggressive childhood brain cancers.
SPECIFIC ENOUGH FOR YOU???
What an incredibly low bar to pass.
Seeing an increase in Cubans struggling to leave Cuba recently?
That's because your regime is blocking all goods from and to Cuba,
creating starvation and incredible suffering for Cubans.
You cannot leave them alone, because you fear they might succeed.
That's your country showing incredible weakness, not strength.
There are actually thousands of people struggling to leave the USA,
they are trying to migrate to Canada and Europe.
Data from the Immigration and Naturalization Service (IND) of the Netherlands, important because many American migrants head to Europe too, shows that as of
late 2025, 6,690 Americans had applied for work, family or study migration to the Netherlands alone, already more than at the end of the previous two years.

The people that were interviewed were born and raised in the USA, but they have Mexican roots and are afraid of ICE, so they fled to my country. They can get in,
when they become entrepreneurs and have a starting capital of at least $5339.
There were NOT 6,690 Americans applying for entry in my country?
Americans with Mexican roots and are NOT afraid of ICE?
It looks like you ONLY know shit, because you're not saying anything cogent.

Or disprove any other of my factual claims.
By the way, Trump said that Cuba is next. He said he wants to “finish” the Iran conflict first, but afterward Cuba would be “a question of time”.
Are you going to make some effort on your profile now, or are you thinking:
"What's the point? My behavior is going to get me kicked in a few days anyway!"?
I don't understand that kind of loyalty to a person.
I understand being loyal to an ideology, not changing it for a person.
He is everything I dislike in the worst people, combined into one person.
People all over the world agree on a whole list of virtues, based on religious traditions and philosophy. Trump lacks ALL of them. I find it very hard to not just think of a world leader, but any person in general, who is lacking in endearing qualities as much as Trump.
I can only conclude that you like horrible people.
that it's a good idea to put a horrible man in control of your country.
And you think that I'm stupid for not understanding that.

You were always free to practice your religion, you were just not supposed
to shove it down other people's throats. Trump is trying to force Christian
sharia law on to people. It's not much different than Muslim sharia law.
It means that your only right is working and the only right of your wife is pumping out babies. Do anything that your leaders don't like and they kill you.
The only difference is that you shall worship Trump, instead of Allah.
Trump only works for wealthy Americans, not for you. He hates everyone
who is not wealthy and sees you as gullible people he can scam and exploit.
The IRDC? Even ChatGPT doesn't know what you're talking about.
YOU are paying those tariffs, dumb-ass. It's a TAX on consumers.
That's why so many goods are more expensive now.
Also, because he has devaluing the dollar.
Gas is the only thing that has been lowering in price a bit. These are all the expenses that have been increasing in price under Trump's second term:
- Housing (rent)
- Food & Groceries
- Utilities & Household Energy
- Healthcare & Medical Costs (22 million Americans have seen their premiums at least DOUBLE)
- Core services such as personal care, recreation and airline fares
- Transportation Services & Vehicles

And I don't have to prove anything to you.. You are a liar, a cheat and a con.. THat's why// A total fuckup.. Just like Cat52!.
Because you are a fool you will not understand or not want to understand but others will read this.. I voted for Donald Trump for this reason:You wanted to know why Israel I would die to protect. First of
all, Yes I'm Jewsih,, but the strategic position of this country in relation of the middle east for the rest of the world..
Iran wants to murder and commit genocide not just to Jews, They want to kill you too..But in order to destroy you they gave to get past Israel. You are still alive because of the position of Israel. Anyone that doesn't get off drinking camel piss and fucking goats will be killed leaving the world in global sharia law. The one organization that has funded radical islamic jihad and terror networks are the socialist and extreme radical Leftest that commit terror acts all over the world including our country.. But because you are a con, cheat, and a liar with trump derrangement syndrome you overlook this ... Man you are just so fucked up I can't believe it.. You are one stupid jackass.. Just a total fuckup..
Israel LIVES!!!! For you, for america.. for democracy. But you're too stupid .. Very stupid not even realizing the size of Israel is a deception. They are the best in the world and would destroy you with a wink.. IRGC is destroyed in just a couple of hours,,, ALL military heads have been assassinated.. YES FUCKTARD,,, ALLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stupid bastard.
There is one problem though; how do you decide what you want to believe?
Do you even have a choice in the matter, or will you just believe the side
that you have been taught to believe.
OMG man, you're sounding like a complete mental case there. Take your pills.
You think too much. But here in forum all you have ever displayed at anytime is just bullshit.. I can see how people are smarter than you.. But without your stupidity there is no way to decipher what is smart and what is dumb.. You've created that common frame of reference of dumb..
So how is this my fault? By all means this is far from personal. I'm just explaining what your learning capabilities are. Any moron would understand what I just said yet it is still confusing to you.. The only question is to see how fucking stupid you are.. But I don't care about that anyway.. So if you don't understand but a moron understands how much of an imbecile are you..?
If you had any critical thinking skills, you would see through Trump's lies easily. The guy is famous for literally contradicting himself within 1 minute.
Almost all your 'news' channels have a bias. Most of that bias comes from being owned by a big corporation or 1 wealthy ass-hole. That means that they will not criticize the system that feeds them and pays their big salaries.
You are only referring to liberal media, but the right-wing media is much worse. Remember when FOX settled with Dominion Voting Systems, for about $787.5 million? That's because they repeated Trump's lies, while they knew he was lying his pants off.
If everything I say is bullshit, you should be able to debunk a lot of thinks that I'm saying, with true facts and logic. You're unwilling to even try.
You are unable to just act like a normal human being, are you?
I am going to be exposing you over and over as an antisemite, nazi supporter anti-trump liberal slandering our president.. BUT most imortanatly exposing you are a jew hating nazi supporter.. Every time you fuck with me that's what you'll
Mas are you fucking stupid... Totally just a total fucktard..
You are unable to say ANYTHING of value, you're only stirring shit.
Only you can think that accusations are the same as exposing someone.
You must have a very low IQ, to not understand the difference.
Your president is exposing himself, to the whole world.
I'm not slandering your president, I'm just saying what he is dong.
He doesn't know the difference between slander and telling on him either.
It's sad that a president is just as low-IQ as the dumbest person on a forum.
Your inability showing lack of transparency on a dead cock site that has been dead foe 14 years tells me you have nothng in life to work on with your life. You feel powerless in real settings outside this website so you use this platform creating illusion of feeling important that diverses all over forum thinking you are smarter than anyone here. I can see your tactics and when you defend a nazi it shows your contempt for certain groups of faith---Jews. I will never reason with you.
I don't lie, because it's bad strategy. Lies can easily be debunked.
People who lie don't believe that their opinions are justifiable.
They see their representation and know it dishonors them.
I don't have that issue. I have nothing I need to lie about.
Notice how YOU accuse me of lying, false accusations, being unreasonable and lacking transparency, without you providing ANY examples. Or is the reference to my dick-pic supposed to be an accusation of not being transparent? I have not posted any nudity anymore, since this website changed its TOS. For posting adult content, they require users to verify their identity and age. I'm not trusting this website with my personal details, because this website is filled with hateful people like you, who would love to DOX a socialist like me.
I am just as politically active outside of this website as within it.
It is campaign time in my country, and I'm doing my best to help
my party as much as I can. I stand for my opinions everywhere.
You're right about one thing; When I'm doing my job, I'm just about average, when I'm talking to my countrymen, I'm feeling pretty smart, but here,... HOLY FUCK, I FEEL LIKE A GODDAMN GENIUS!!!
I feel about Jews, exactly the same as about Christians, Muslims and Hindus; sad that they get suckered into believing nonsense, but it's their right to believe and practice their nonsense, as long as they are not harming anyone with it. That has absolutely no relationship with how I feel about Israel. Many Jews distance themselves from what
the Israeli government is doing to the Palestinians. And if they don't,
I support their right to express it in my country, freely and safely,
as long as they obey our laws. I feel the exact same thing about
the Muslims protesting. Two stupid religions hating each other.
The world would be a better place, if all those people dropped
their religion and adopted humanism.
You're an egoist. The universe revolves about you being the center of gravity. This site you can feel the power of knowledge.. Here only.. Its so easy filling your bottomless hole here.. But its hard anywhere else..
Thats the same with you. Listen too yourself
I am here to debate people who disagree with me the most.
You are here to get your ideas reinforced in an echo chamber,
while you want to bully away everyone who disagrees with you.
Funny how you are calling this forum a bottomless hole of knowledge.
That's quite accurate. I can throw in knowledge as much as I want, but it never lands. (some exceptions excluded)
Still, there is some truth to what your saying. As an atheist, I am quite sure that this life is ALL THAT I GET. I can die tomorrow or in 50 years, but then it's over. All that I have is what I'm experiencing while alive and the ripples of influence that I leave humanity.
My experiences are better among people who are happy and fulfilling their potential. For that, they need to be FREE, instead of being dominated by some dictator or a bunch of billionaires exploiting them. And this fits perfectly to the ripples of influence
that I want to leave behind.
So, who is your center of gravity? Trump? God?
I guess I missed the part in the bible that tells you to worship billionaires and to trust false prophets.
Donalk Trump is a leader, not a dictator.. You use persuasive terms using false pseudo spectre means to broadcast filth and quite franly I find very disgusting. I know your desires and every form of behavior you represent is geared for your benefit., I know you are an egoist by lying. Your desires are for yourself not for the benefit of others.
Psychological egoism is the view that humans are always motivated by self-interest and selfishness, even in what seem to be acts of altruism. It claims that, when people choose to help others, they do so ultimately because of the personal benefits that they expect to obtain, directly or indirectly, from doing so. They demand recognition, just like you./////////
Now on the polar opposite side of the stectrum: Altruism is the selfless act of helping others at a cost to oneself, driven by empathy or a desire to benefit others. Key types include genetic (kin selection), reciprocal (helping with expectation of return), and pure altruism. Benefits include increased happiness, better health, and stronger social bonds. It is encouraged through fostering empathy, modeling kindness, and encouraging communal responsibility.
Conclusion based on findings,, you are an egoist.
Trump has just started a war. That's Congress's job, not his'.
A dictator is typically understood to be a ruler who:
- Holds power without meaningful democratic checks and balances
- Cannot be removed through free and fair elections
- Controls the military and state institutions personally
- Suppresses political opposition, media, and civil liberties
Trump is not a dictator yet, but he is using ALL the tools of the authoritarian playbook to become one. He has already destroyed most democratic checks and balances, because his side of Congress lest him do whatever he wants, he controls the FBI with a loyalist, he controls the DOJ with a loyalist, the majority of the Supreme Court lets him do most of what he wants and when they don't he ignores them.
On his orders, ICE is breaking every law imaginable, resulting in the deaths of Americans and then makes his DOJ lie about it.
He is trying to make voting impossible for many Americans.
He is trying to make rules to call protests terrorism. He is doing that, because he wants to kill protesters, just like they are doing in Iran.
In a real democracy, a president that breaks the law like Trump would have been already arrested for his numerous crimes. However, in a real democracy, much more people actually understand and support democracy. You do not.
It's 50/50 whether democracy survives the onslaught of your side.
If democracy loses, you will find out what it is like to live in a dictatorship. There has never been a dictatorship that was good to dumb working class people like you. You're gonna live in poverty and under the mercy of a police state. Even loyal subjects can be at the wrong place at the wrong time, get pointed out as the enemy, tortured and killed. That's the life that you are asking for.
If I was an egoist, I would vote for our right-wing capitalist party VVD, because I am doing well. I have a good job, I own a house, I am creating wealth for myself, I am healthy. I don't need affordable education, affordable healthcare, affordable housing, a social safety net, a higher minimum wage, or any equality at all. I don't need DEI, because I'm a white male. I shouldn't care about fair justice or prison inmates getting treated fairly. I am upper middle class, so I could shit on 75%-80% poorer people who are struggling, or the young people who will never be able to afford a house like I did. That would be the egoist thing to do. Instead, I support a party that is working hard for equality, helping to lift up the poor and to care for the sick and elderly. Even though my country is the most densly populated in the world, I still support allowing in refugees from horrible countries, asking for help.
That is solidarity, and I know it will cost me money. I'm still doing that, because I have the ability to understand and share the feelings of another. That's empathy.
What do you do? You are supporting the most selfish person to ever be elected president. He cares about no one, but himself.
You support a party that KICKS DOWN and hates everyone less fortunate than you. A party that is racist and xenophobic, doesn't care about all the suffering in the world, but chooses to make it worse. That's not just you being an egoist, that's you being evil.
And your stupid nonsense is only to ease your conscience.
If there is a good god, it won't be fooled by that.
As far as your thoughts are I'd suggest you'd persuade people that are more vulnerable. No matter what you do you will never change my mind the same way I won't chage yours... Get over it.
A dictator is a ruler with absolute, unchecked power over a state, often seizing control through force, fraud, or during crises. Modern dictators maintain authority through intimidation, propaganda, and the suppression of civil liberties. Originating from Roman, temporary crisis leaders, they now typically resemble autocratic tyrants.
A leader is someone who guides, inspires, and directs individuals or teams toward shared goals, acting with vision, integrity, and empathy. They empower others, communicate effectively, and foster trust. Effective leaders focus on motivating, mentoring, and facilitating progress rather than just exercising authority.
Key Characteristics of a Leader
Visionary & Strategic: Defines a clear direction for the team to follow.
Empathetic & Genuine: Understands and cares about the needs of their team members.
Excellent Communicator: Conveys expectations clearly and often. Integrity & Trustworthy: Acts with honesty, building credibility.
Resilient & Adaptable: Capable of overcoming challenges and adapting to change.
Action-Oriented: Takes responsibility and drives progress.
Core Roles and Responsibilities
Motivator: Inspires passion and commitment within the group.
Communicator: Clearly defines goals and provides ongoing feedback.
Uniter: Brings people together toward a common, shared purpose.
Coach/Mentor: Develops the skills and potential of team members.
Common Leadership Styles
Transformational: Focuses on inspiring positive change.
Servant: Prioritizes the needs of the team.
Democratic: Encourages team participation in decision-making.
Authoritative: Provides strong, clear direction. Donald Trump..
A leader is someone who influences, guides, and motivates individuals or groups to work together towards a common goal, often by setting a vision, taking initiative, and inspiring action, without necessarily needing a formal title. They take ownership, make decisions, and help others realize potential for a better future, leading by example and fostering trust and collaboration. DONALD TRUMP..
What are the 7 qualities of a leader?
While specific lists vary, 7 common leadership traits include Vision, Integrity, Communication, Empathy, Resilience, Decisiveness, and Accountability, focusing on guiding teams with purpose, honesty, clear direction, understanding, adaptability, strong choices, and responsibility for outcomes. These qualities help leaders build trust, inspire action, and navigate challenges effectively.
Three words to describe leadership often center on Vision, Influence, and Empathy, but common themes include Inspiring, Visionary, Purposeful, Empathetic, and Committed, reflecting direction, motivation, understanding, and dedication to a goal and people, though there's no single correct trio. DONALD TRUMP
Conclusions are that your opinions create macquarie disrupting the integrity of this blog. You are obsessed with Trump Derrangement system that forces you to create subjective desire spewing propaganda.. This is not Donald Trump., The is you.
Trump even said he wants to be a dictator. Isn't it clear that he wants to have absolute, unchecked power? He had the Supreme Court declare him immune. He wants all evidence from his previous court cases, from before he was president, just DELETED. He wants to break the law with impunity.
He HAS seized control, over the FBI and the DOJ, by putting in loyalists who's ONLY job is to protect him. Do we even have to talk about the 'fraud'? He has been accused, and even convicted for fraud multiple times in his life. He wanted to steal the election with fraudulent electors, using fraudulent election documents. The case against him is ironclad, he just managed to obstruct and delay justice long enough, until he was voted in as president again.
He IS using FORCE, by starting lawsuits against anyone that is critiquing him, for millions or billions of dollars. No POTUS before him EVER done that. He is threatening all descent, with stochastic terrorism. He is using rubes like you to demand absolute loyalty. Cross him and get millions of death threats, and very possibly actual attempts.
"Crisis"? Every piece of legislation he is pushing is an emergency decree. He is creating crisis and chaos himself, purely as a distraction from his crimes.
"intimidation" EXACTLY. Every question he doesn't like is answered with intimidation, 'little piggy'. None of his loyalists EVER answer a question. Pete Hegseth was using intimidation towards an auditorium full of generals and admirals, telling them to be loyal to Trump, instead of keeping their oath to the Constitution, not to the officeholder.
"propaganda"? "They are eating the dogs..". His fake country/tariffs list.
"They are poisoning the blood of America". Talking about $18 trillion of investments. I could go on for an hour.
"suppression of civil liberties" Getting attacked by ICE, in your own home or just traveling to work, because you look foreign?
Anyway, to summarize, you are describing Trump EXACTLY, when you are describing a dictator
The '7' (14) qualities of a leader:
Vision: every other day, other tariffs. he can change his mind in 1 sentence.
Integrity: He is a conman and has been his whole life. He keeps doubling down on clear and proven lies.
Communication: He cannot finish a sentence, more gaffes than Biden.
Empathy: Ignores national tragedies to talk about his ballroom.
Resilience: They call him TACO for a reason
Decisiveness: Those are not decisions, those are brain farts.
Accountability: NEVER!!!
Focusing on guiding teams with purpose: Guiding? People have to guess what he wants.
Honesty: He is the most brazen liar I have ever seen.
Clear direction: Even his loyalists don't know what he wants.
Understanding: He STILL doesn't know what tariffs are, he just 'likes the word'.
Adaptability: He is LOSING the American people, but he is not LEARNING.
Strong choices: BULLYING ISN'T STRENGTH
Responsibility for outcomes: NEVER, he always blames others for his failures.
You are correctly describing a leader, but it's very funny how much you don't understand that Trump is failing ALL those characteristics and in most cases is the embodiment of the opposite.
It's like you are describing OBAMA for a half hour, and then say: 'Donald Trump'. It's so fucking funny.
Trump is not a leader, he is a bully and a conman. Trump is very immature, he is overly sensitive, emotionally fragile, easily upset, and only looking for praise and approval.
He is such a pathetic person. I have never seen anyone like him.
You have TDS; Trump Delusion Syndrome. If it wasn't so sad,
it would be funny.

No, you're just being a dick.. Your behavior shows a 7 year old is more mature than you. So all the names I've called you is true..
You want to exchange blows? You've got trump derrangement sysdrome.. Fucking worst case I've every seen. Not just profound trump derragement syndrom. You've got total trump derrangement syndrome. You've got a weak mind and quite frankly the world is better off without you than with you. People should either ban you, ignore you and quite frankly just stay the fuck away from you..
You've got total trump derrangement syndrome and quite frankly before Trump got into politics you were most likely just a total fucking dick anyway. You are one fucked piece of shit no good mother fucker.
Meanwhile Trump is stabolizing the middle east with your Trump derrangement syndrome totally cementing you in the street while you sit on the red light district of Amsterdam giving head for a Euro...
Trump is a leader. so just get your mouth puckered up to suck.. it's your fucking job.. tourism in netherlands is important right? so you can just shut the fuck up finish your job.. You People paying a buck... Earn your fucking keep..
I don't have to.. The whole site knows your wrong.. I can see nobody like you here. I stand with what I say and fuck you... FUCK YOU
I've shared your attacks towards me here to my friends on the site.. Just because I don't have friends doesn't mean I don't have them.... Prepare for site attacks on your page.,. it won't stop.. ever..
I've debunked your fucking bullshit over and over... Seriously , how much of a stupid fucking imbecile are you...
You’re the most immature person on this forum.
When I stopped believing in Santa, the even weaker claims about the existence of the Christian God seemed just as childish.
Christians always retreat to the claim 'a universe requires a creator' when pushed to defend their bullshit, but they always come back with
a God who demands belief to get accepted into heaven, and God coming to Earth as his son, being born from a virgin mother, getting horribly tortured and killed, as blood sacrifice to make himself forgive our 'original sin', then get resurrected, and then go back to heaven.
That's the 'Motte and Bailey Fallacy' in perfect execution. The 'motte'
is the creator of the universe, that science cannot disprove (yet),
but the 'bailey' is a stack of religious dogma bullshit, ten feet high.
It's impossible for me to believe that much nonsense.
They even added the threat of hell, if you don't. That's a scam, period.
It might be complicated, because it's science, but it is supported by mountains of evidence.
As soon as you have self replicating cells, with whatever primitive form of 'code' imaginable, evolution takes hold and works exactly as how it can be scientifically PROVEN in the lab. That doesn't require DNA, because viruses still use RNA as genetic material. Primitive life can use RNA and evolve to DNA later. Even before life emerged, RNA was already behaving like biological processes in cells today.
When RNA molecules gained the ability to replicate themselves, it was still not life as we know it, but it was already evolving. They are called 'Replicators'. There was molecular evolution, before there was biologic evolution. This can be demonstrated in the lab, to produce many of the exact molecules that life today is STILL dependent on.
If a God designed this, she has a strange sense of humor to make life that looks exactly like it is the result of 100% natural processes, that science finds everywhere in nature.
You think that a creator is easy to explain? Go ahead, try!
What you end up explaining is MAGIC, not anything you can show
to be real.
To someone without knowledge, science looks like magic.
It doesn't to me; I understand EVERY small step from basic elements created in stars, to humans walking around.
There are fossils for every step from an animal to a thinking human, because that only happened some millions of years ago. That is a blink of an eye compared with the evolution of 'bacteria in a mudhole' till today. What is a 'thinking' human? One who uses tools? Apes can do that. One who uses fire? That's only 2 million years ago. There is a 3500 million archive of fossils, and only in the latest few millions do they find those 'thinking humans'. Did God come back after 3500 million years to create them? And how about all those apes in between, who look more and more like those 'thinking humans'?
THe problem is you have no reasoning ability or common sense.. Oh you can pretend being an english teacher and think you write here showing your education level but I don't bite.. I tell it like it is....
And if you keep sticking up for CAT52! who is a proven nazi for me and my people you have no idea who you are dealing with.. I'll show you what I'm capable of ... If I see you pulling that shit with me again ,,, well lets just say there is going to be retaliations in persuit of justice.. This is why your nothing but this explains to me how much a fucking piece of shit no good mother fucker you are...
Are their any other stupid questions?
You immediately responded with personal attacks, and vile language.
When I attack someone's personality, it is a reaction to their behavior.
I am not pretending to be an English teacher, this is just how people
with a brain communicate. I'm guessing that you do not use language
like this at work, so you know that you're being reprehensible.
Better get that temper under control, because it will get you into more trouble than just being banned from an adult forum website.
I do back CAT52! when she expresses opinions that I agree with,
I do not back her when she is using vulgarity in response to vulgarity.
Since CAT52! doesn't support your president, she is not a Nazi.
Not everyone who supports your president is a Nazi, but every NAZI
at one point or another supported your president. Every single one!
Trump made Elon Musk think that giving the Nazi salute on the world stage is a good idea. And ALL of you cheered for it, denied it or defended it.
I understand cult-like adherence
to demagogues and autocrats.
They attract people who're ready
to surrender entirely, their souls
and their brains (whatever little they have of either).
I see that you understand WHAT they do, but can you explain WHY?
Why would they serve someone else, instead of pursuing happiness?
It's blind faith.
But they equate it with happiness.
Perhaps they derive pleasure by
realising how many people are suffering.
"Faith is choosing to believe something that isn't true" - Mark Twain
I never read Mark Twain, but his quotes are pretty good.
"Faith is not what you say."
People who have faith in religion, feel the need to reject reality.
Almost all of them reject scientifically proven facts, because their world view doesn't allow accepting those facts. Not all believers reject evolution or the Earth being billions of years old, or believe that 'the flood' really happened,
but ALL believers feel the need to push their god in a hole in knowledge, until that hole is plugged with knowledge. They are not discouraged about that, they'll just find another hole in knowledge to justify their beliefs.
Some believers have a more sustainable strategy to justify their beliefs.
They just immediately retreat to the creation of the universe, which will possibly never be fully explained by science. Then they use that vague notion of a supreme being to justify whatever they want to believe about it's character and to justify how they want to behave towards other people. That's the worst kind of faith, because it accepts that the holy books are fallible, while still picking and choosing in them, to justify what you want to believe.
If you accept that the holy books are just the product of fallible people, who hadn't figured out anything about the natural universe yet, so everything happening was SUPERnatural to them, than you cannot also believe that it is the 'word of God'. A god should have been able to provide that bunch of primitives with some useful knowledge. There really is NOTHING in any of the holy books that can be considered knowledge.
It really is faith, to still believe in the supernatural, when humanity has explained away everything that appeared supernatural to those people.
It results in self-deceptive people rejecting all those explanations, and people who are honest with themselves believing that there was a plan behind the physics creating the universe we live in, and calling that "God".
What you would call the 'true believers', are people who have faith that their holy book is INFALLIBLE. That is obviously false. It is contradicting itself, science proves most of it wrong, and those 'true believers' themselves even reject most of the morality in it. They don't follow almost any of its rules and instead follow the rules that modern society has created, because morality has progressed beyond the primitive views of 2000 years ago.
People who believe in a god on faith, pick random things happening in the world as a sign that god is real. And when those random things happening would be a sign of their god being evil, they just explain it away, saying that their god works in mysterious ways.
That is faith, and it is exactly what Mark Twain said about it.
I have now put arguments to the quote of Mark Twain.
You could try to argue against it, but I expect you won't, because you can't.

Wanting to be right so much he starts to throw insults and threats. The IQ of a gnat on a bad day.
You fucking come on here with your pig shit mouth insultng people personally based on race or political affirmation with no regrets or remorse.. The world is better without you than with you but as they say the lord works in strange ways.. I still don't get it.. I hope you do pass away naturally as God intends but when you die you will be nothing but a forgotten memory. Both you and Ananas2xLekker. With honorable mention of that fucktard BJUK.
When it comes down to life you are the absolutely pinworm infested pig shit of this planet.. As long as you here I am going to expose you... You are a liar, a cheat and you don't come in here to create beauty, you come in here to destroy it.
Believing in a god doesn't change the truth.
Either a god exists or it/he/she doesn't.
If not, you will be nothing but a memory too.
How/if people remember you is dependent on your behavior towards them.
Since you are awful towards most people here, I assume you are like that
in real life too. That doesn't bode well for the memories you will leave behind.
If the Christian God of the OLD testament is real, I will not like the afterlife.
If the Christian God of the NEW testament is real, YOU will not like the afterlife.
You personify every vice that Jesus spoke out against.
And you serve a master, who is the opposite of Jesus in every way.
It does make a difference, because you're not a long-standing member in this
on-line community. You just come here to spout your nonsense and hate,
until you are banned again. Then you come back to do it all over again.
Luckily the moderators of this website are mostly objective about who is
violating their Terms Of Use, by not conducting themselves in an adult manner,
so your feeble threats don't bother me. I'm being the adult in our conversation,
you are acting very childish.
I assume you're either Jewish or one of those Christian nationalists, who picks some tiny parts in the old testament that they like, and ignore EVERYTHING that Jesus ever said. I'm an atheist, but I care about what Jesus actually said, more than you.
You are a fucking nazi supporter and a nazi sympathiser... You've earned my wrath mate..
Get ready mate
You are humiliating them, by association.

Look... your apology window has expired and many people know you did this.. You not only tripled down you kept going. It's amazing you are still here because as long as you are
on good standing here there could be warrents issued..
These coversations have been logged and placed on a different server with timestamps... Man this is starting to get really fucked up now..
If I were you I'd either delete or keep your fucking mouth shut..
Did you forget your swastika at home today?
Why don't you wear it and be
a big beautiful bigot?
You'll be loved.
They're deeply perverted.
I don't understand why the far right
are classified as part of
the political spectrum.
They don't belong to politics.
They're simply criminals.
We should talk about them the
same way we talk about thugs.
A person of politics has, in some
way, a sense of dignity and respect.
They have none.
All they want is destruction
and killings and anything that
goes against human nature.
after calling themself a 'Never-Trumper' and calling Trump Hitler?
Point me to any Democrat who lost their dignity as much as Lindsey Graham.
Excluding John Fetterman, because he betrayed everything he ever said,
but that's the only Democrat who you respect, so you like fucking field rats.
Republicans are useless cucks, the way they gave away their power to Trump.
The House of Representatives should write legislation, and the Senate should review, amend, and pass it. They do almost none of that now, while they still have a majority, because Trump overrules them. Understand that everything that Trump does can be eliminated on day one by the next president. That hurts their cause. Republican politicians know that, but they do nothing, because they cannot go against the cult leader. They just parrot what they are told to say. No dignity at all.
The only few who say something are the ones who have already left.
Still, I agree with the idea that some Democrats are gutless bitches, because 7 of them voted for Trump's ICE budget. They probably do it, because most people are angry about what ICE is doing, which is the most important promise that Trump made. Supporting your opponent in the damage he is causing, is good strategy.
As long as there are still too many Americans who would vote for Republicans because of immigration, then more harm might be required. However, I think that it's a weak strategy. If you have balls, then you promote your principles and fight
for them, instead of letting your citizens suffer, to make them hate your opponents.
Its exceptionalism is unique.
It's great.
And all American people i know know it too and are proud of it.

oh well, yet another shot fired at Trump that FUCKING MISSED.
I believe it is very possible that the whole Donald
Trump "assassination" attempt could very well be staged.
I know I'm not the only one that thinks this but there are
just so many benefits that come from this for Donald Trump.
Of course the primary one is that the ballroom at the White
House would have been a lot safer so now it's a matter of public
safety that "must" be built.
Enter the executive order.
I could go on and on but it's bedtime after I watch Jimmy Kimmel.
Frankly I wish our leader would stay in the White house most of the time. the more he is out, the more vulnerable he is.it would be much cheaper on the American tax payers to elect a single man as president that had more time to focus on his job instead of everything else.
I think it was a real attempt on his life by a deranged person
