You have another 27 years until retirement for most western countries. That’s enough time to get a teaching degree and earn a pension in most places.

You still have a full ass life to go.

No, we don’t. Apple proprietary nonsense isn’t worth the metal it’s made of.

You just get it capped off, and the money you’ll save on your homeowners insurance will more than pay for any fees that have for doing so.

And yet the religion itself isn’t the reason for that and most religious people don’t support that. They outnumber you, and most people you have ever interacted with or looked up to were religious, just statistically speaking.

I’m sorry you’re still at the edgy teen phase of your understanding of the world, but you’ll get it when you get past puberty.

Its a woman’s choice in most non westernized Muslim countries, those countries, incidentally, containing a minority of Muslims.

Incidentally westernized Muslims countries tend to have the harshest restrictions, like Saudi Arabia.

As far as gay communities it, like it always does, depends on local culture. Pakistan officially recognizes transgender women; Saudi, the West’s darling, stones gay people. Iran has multiple gay organizations that are recognized by the state, and Sudan was influenced by Christians so they really hate the gays. As it turns out different people and cultures believe different things regardless of religion.

Almost like people are people, you bigoted fuck.

Islam is a religion of peace, and does explicitly promote protecting the weak and doing charity. Its a large reason why Jews were safe in Palestine for centuries before zionist decided to hijack the region.

If bigots like you didn’t exist, maybe we could move on from demonizing 1/8th of humanity and start to deal with the actual problems you mentioned.

The problem was she wasn’t a choice for a lot of people. That’s something you guys have consistently failed to understand.

For people that actually suffered under the Obama or Biden regime, Harris did not represent a greater future than Trump. If you are given a choice of either shooting yourself, being shit, or ignoring the entire thing while trying to to find a way to survive being shot; most people will choose the latter option, which is simply not voting.

Homelessness hit a record high under Biden, and only climbed throughout his term. Credit card debt soared, yet consumer spending on nonessentials went down. People aren’t worried about the status quo or the collapse of the US, people were worried about tomorrow.

When you have that situation, they don’t give a fuck about a status quo candidate lying to their face about how great the economy is and how much nothing different they’ll be doing.

Their choice was not Harris or trump, their choice was vote or not vote. And given their experience during Biden’s term, they chose to not vote.

Well Harris wasn’t a viable candidate, as proven by her ridiculous loss against one of the most hated men in history.

Same goes for Clinton. And Biden was polling worse than Harris before his handlers finally made him pull out.

So which neoliberal is a viable candidate again?

Are we just going to do the same thing in 2028, with, using your word, a nonviable candidate?

Words written by a socialist to satirize capital based dictatorships might not be the argument against leftists that you think it is.

…leading some of the most disastrous dea and fbi raids in US history is good domestic policy?

He was a boring ‘good’, president if you were upper middle class or higher in a fairly conservative job and a white male. That’s about it. Those were the people that could tune out.

It had a better chance than a rightwing cop trying to get elected to the dem party, or an even more senile Biden.

You can’t run incredibly right wing candidates and expect anyone to vote for them, unless you’re running them in the furthest right party.

Cool, you know you can write in the candidate, right?

In any case if dems wanted to be elected, they could try not being republican. Even in the face of fascism no self respecting person would vote for a republican.

Sorry, bigot, your talking points from October 2001 don’t really fly in the rest of the world.

Liberals aren’t ‘non-authoritarians’, you just think you should be able to buy authority and violence instead of being born into that luxury. You want violence in the hands of the rich, not the hands of the people where it belongs.

Sure… But that political theory is still explicitly illegal in the US and can get you imprisoned if you manage to get elected. Barring the obvious, we can’t base our political theory on entirely different material conditions experienced by entirely different people. The number of voters that were alive 60 years ago is miniscule, and the number of voters that voted 60 years ago is going to be less than 1% in the next election.

Even supposing those people were physically still alive their material conditions have changed so dramatically they aren’t the same voters.

By ignoring the change of conditions and change of voters mentality, you set yourself up for ‘surprise’ failures, like clinton in 2016, which all leftists knew clinton would lose.

If you just look at the last four years and the material conditions people face, you’re far less likely to overvalue old elections that have nothing whatsoever in common with modern elections.

Liberals have been the only people in world history to choose fascism over any form of communism, since fascism doesn’t threaten their world view.

This includes the dem party in the US who picked clinton, biden, and harris, three far right shit stains, instead of anyone slightly centrist or left wing.

I’m pretty sure those are used accurately as specific types of fascists.

Anyone else. Throw Bernie’s half animated corpse up there as the candidate. Congrats he would’ve won. Because he wasnt a cop trying to get elected to the anticop party, nor far right economically trying to get elected to the center right party.

Sorry, niceness does not extend to fascists or their enablers due to recent world events. To resubscribe, stop being a cunt.

A) no it wasn’t. The vast majority of healthcare reforms in the EU took place shortly after WWII and explicitly due to the fact fascism was fresh in everyone’s mind so they could just remind everyone of nazi healthcare practices.

B) Assuming you’re on ca due to your location, look up literally anything about native Americans in your country since you failed to learn about it in school (or went to school before courses on actual Canadians were added). Starlight tours still happen to this day and native women still disproportionately ‘go missing.’

Any Canadian that doesn’t know about ‘starlight tours’ at this point is either sheltered or willfully ignorant to the plight of native women in Canada.

Canada has this nice image and all, but they’re still committing genocide.
