I’m pro whoever leads us to Zelenskyy’s severed head on a spit

Reasonable as always. What possible reason could you have for this take? You're pro wars of conquest when the victims are whites?

[Ass Dan]

I think he hates Zelenskyy because he’s a jew.

Joe Biden is literally trying to give Ukraine 7% of the USA’s non-defense budget because Zelenskyy is a panhandling bitch. We live in a failed fucking state. Go drink some Chardonnay.

russian conquest of two neighboring regions that identify as russian, speak russian, and voted to become russian

the only difference between Biden and Trump is the fear that our proto-authoritarian government will finally affect you instead of just minorities.

this is literally the democrats' pitch for 2024 (and was their pitch in 2022) ((and kind of their pitch in 2020))

You’re both so insanely wrong it’s hard to figure out where to start.

[johnny two cool]

There is no definition of “failed state” that applies to the United States. Fuckin absurd lol

you've already posted about the handful of small wins that only affect certain people so don't worry about it

[Ass Dan]

This place is only going to get more hard rocking the closer we get to November. At least Bernie ain’t running this time.

[AL 🎄✨🦌]

yo ass dan read any good articles on vox lately?

[killedbyboard]

I do not have time for this.

[Ass Dan]

No, I have mainly just been playing their crossword lately. And the shit in Gaza was stressing me out so much I had to quit following the news.

[johnny two cool]

Nah, I’ve posted examples that quite literally have an effect on everyone.

“ the usa is a failed state” is the dumbest thing anyone has ever posted in this thread.

bro... we lead the developed world in poverty, highest infant AND maternal mortality rate, gun violence, our education system is crumbling, our infrastructure is crumbling, our legislature is in gridlock, our government runs on 30-45 day re-ups, abortion is banned in half the country. there are whole parts of this country that don't have access to clean water. it took 5 years for flint, michigan to get clean water. yeah, it's a failed state.

[Ass Dan]

US needs a new constitution. Nothing will improve until then.

more than 50% of our federal budget is allocated towards defense than any type of meaningful social programs. that type of activity is typically resolved for countries living under dictatorships.

1. The largest $$$ investment in US infrastructure ever passed a few years ago.
2. Poverty rate in the U.S. today is less dismal than its been for most of the country’s history.
3. You don’t know how government funding works.

I dunno what your definition of “developed world” is, but it seems like you’re only including the wealthiest western European countries.

Where the fuck did you get that number from lol

[tandoori jones]

narc, if you wanna lick the boot a little as a treat go ahead. don’t swallow the whole thing

[johnny two cool]

U.S. spends a massive and stupid amount on defense. That is bad. But it is not 50% of the federal budget or GDP.

www.cnn.com/2022/12/20/politics/spending-bill-congress-omnibus/index.html

The legislation includes $772.5 billion for nondefense discretionary programs and $858 billion in defense funding. That represents an increase in spending in both areas for fiscal year 2023.

[meatballmaniac]

I feel safer

[johnny two cool]

Yes, I agreed that that is bad. What is the percentage of the budget or GDP? Is it 50%? Is it even 40%? Nope!

[meatballmaniac]

You got him narc!

[meatballmaniac]

Eviscerated his point completely

[johnny two cool]

Thanks, guys. I’m doing my best.

[johnny two cool]

By the way, what’s the cause of that infant mortality rate?

You will find that it is THE PRIVATE AUTOMOBILE

Full circle let’s fuckin go

Well I’m glad board has Biden surrogates posting

[johnny two cool]

U.S. politics aren’t your personal psychological melodrama writ large.
