Society The Joseph R Biden Show

[BeardOfKnowledge]

Well instead of talking in fucking riddles and being a troll, how about you just have a discussion like an adult?

Anytime I've said anything, you've said "NO!!!!" and then go on a tangent about unrelated things. When I then ask you to stop making things up, you tell me I'm being a troll, talking in circles, etc.

You made a post about it being a violent coup. I said, no it wasn't. We know it wasn't because if it was there would have been a staggering death toll beyond a few LARP'ers having heart attacks. I'm not excusing the behavior, I'm not making a value judgment on it. I'm stating a fact. It wasn't a violent coup.

Maybe they're not dangerous. AOC is gonna be just fine if they smash through a door into a room and find her there. Maybe none of them mean to do physical harm to her, if they find her. Why would anyone working in the building want to investigate how and why this happened? Let's just forget about it and pretend like it never happened at all, and nobody ever has to account for their actions in inciting it.

I never said any of those things. Does it need to be the FBI's top priority? No, but the people who entered the capital should be charged for any crimes they committed. Most of these people are just mentally ill and going to find themselves in federal penitentiaries, but it is what it is.

Yes I did.

You don’t gotta lie to kick it.

You don’t gotta lie to kick it.

Prove it.

You don’t gotta lie to kick it.

This is how you end up with almost 50 posts per day.

Who?

somebody you probably ignored on their first day back

It wasn't a violent coup because they didn't kill enough people?

It wasn't a coup, technically, because it wasn't backed by the military.

It was also the single worst attack on American government since 9/11. And the single worst domestic insurrection since the Civil War.

And there is no investigation or commission, because the Republicans killed it, because they know they are culpable.

Can we agree on these basic facts.

I never said any of those things. Does it need to be the FBI's top priority? No

Well, I am not privy to the FBI's domestic intelligence, so I can't say I can fairly rank what their concerns should be. But I know that they have publicly stated that right-wing domestic terrorism against the government is their single biggest concern right now. And the FBI is a bunch of gun-owning hardcore cops, they are nowhere close to being a leftist liberal organisation.

but the people who entered the capital should be charged for any crimes they committed. Most of these people are just mentally ill and going to find themselves in federal penitentiaries, but it is what it is.

Of course they should.

And what drew those hoardes of mentally ill people from all over the country to Washington on that date and caused them to smash their way into the Capitol building, beat the shit out of dozens of cops, force an emergency evacuation of Congress (for the second time in our lifetimes) and attempt to violently prevent the lawful and peaceful transfer of power?

Was it a nonstop avalanche of poisonous lies from the right wing media and Republican politicians, which over a span of years rotted their minds and left them completely detached from reality?

It was also the single worst attack on American government since 9/11. And the single worst domestic insurrection since the Civil War.

It also wasn't the "worst" insurrection if we're using the dictionary use of the word insurrection.

And there is no investigation or commission, because the Republicans killed it, because they know they are culpable.

There is an investigation, there's not a commission. Commissions are a waste of time, it's political theater than it's what's being discussed.

But I know that they have publicly stated that right-wing domestic terrorism against the government is their single biggest concern right now. And the FBI is a bunch of gun-owning hardcore cops, they are nowhere close to being a leftist liberal organisation.

As of 2 days ago, that was not their biggest concern.

“In the FBI’s view, the top domestic violent extremist threat comes from racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists, specifically those who advocated for the superiority of the white race,”

The FBI has been beating the "domestic terrorism" for quite some time now.

And what drew those hoardes of mentally ill people from all over the country to Washington on that date and caused them to smash their way into the Capitol building, beat the shit out of dozens of cops, force an emergency evacuation of Congress (for the second time in our lifetimes) and attempt to violently prevent the lawful and peaceful transfer of power?

Media and politicians in general were the trigger. They however did not create mental illness, or losers. Well, I suppose they did, but in a different manor.

I like how the progressives are just going full religious discrimination. Except for Islam of course.

Nobody who kowtows to Islam is a progressive. Islam is the greatest danger to liberalism on the planet.

Lol the first part is funny.
The second part is true.

I can't be fucked with anybody who calls themselves a progressive, a liberal or a supporter of social justice, who also makes excuses for Islam and has any stance on it other than "get that backwards, oppressive barbarism out of our modern, democratic society." Woke warriors bending over backwards to give a pass to backwards cunts promoting the single biggest threat to feminism and LGBT rights on the planet, can fuck off.

Sorry, but it's true. Liberal-progressives don't support ANY of the barbaric, primitive, hate-filled ignorant shit that the Koran is full of start to finish. End of.

very ignorant post ser

all religions are built off of lies imo. and all of the big religions texts are insane and abusive if taken verbatim

but almost everyone i hold dear is religious, including muslim. mostly catholic tho

 

[kaladin stormblessed]

almost 2 billion people in this world are muslim. thats 1 out of every 4 people

most of them are decent humans. but MSM and many politicians have tried to define all muslims as similar to the extemist pyshcos. and theuvr done a good job. i used to believe it

but its bullshit. 1 out of every 4 people on this earth are muslim. you may not realize it, but some might be your neighbors. or friends

 

[John Lee Pettimore]

All Abrahamic religions, absolutely.

Some other religions are more like philosophies/mindsets.

And all of the big religions texts are insane and abusive if taken verbatim

Yes.

And they ARE taken verbatim, just as they were written to be........ until at some point their bullshit just becomes too stupid to pass off. And then most of the stories suddenly become allegories and not literal depictions of events, as the religion had spent the last 2,000 years telling everybody.

but almost everyone i hold dear is religious, including muslim. mostly catholic tho

They need to put the fairy tales away. Sorry. It's true.

It's the 21st Century, ffs.

Adam and Eve and Garden of Eden and the talking snake were not real people or things.

Muhammad didn't have a flying horsepeacockwoman.

God didn't stop the sun in the sky for three hours so that the Israelites could have time to win an important battle.

And most importantly, the entire cosmos and everything in it wasn't created for, and doesn't revolve around, the petty tribal squabbles of a bunch of nomadic goat herders in the Middle East circa 2000 years ago. The arrogance that this mindset creates has done SO much harm to us as a species. Sorry. It's how we were raised, but it's time to drop the fairy tales. Santa doesn't really bring us presents, the Tooth Fairy doesn't really bring us money, and Jesus isn't going to stop anyone from getting covid. That's just the reality. It's time we add a society openly acknowledged it. ?

i wish society would move on from religion

but you could make the argument that it has. many americans nee "religion" is capitalism. (work or slavery, depending on how they see)

but i drift. my point is that although i think religions are ridiculous, we only have one life to live. and its not for you or i to tell anyone else how to make sense of this mysterious universe

because even if they live in a fairy tale, its cool. as long as it makes then happy

and we are all in our own fairytales anyway
