Pretty funny watching a bunch of Trumptards trying to unperson a Grammy hall of famer because he criticized their podcast daddy.

Well I heard Mister Young sing about her
Well I heard ol' Neil put her down
Well I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don't need him around anyhow

Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord I'm comin' home to you

remember that part in Old King when he said he kicked his dog and felt bad about it. Harvest Moon was a great album and at least he's consistent over the decades

anyways i am a former dog trainer, have had to violence a lot of dogs into submission in emergencies

alpha rolling only works if you're more physically powerful than the dog you're trying to wrestle, and even then it's a temporary win at best, dangerous at worst

dogs naturally push at the boundaries they perceive

This is not support of trump, this is a comparison.

President Trump’s record: Lowest overall unemployment in 50 years, lowest Black and Hispanic unemployment in history. Wages rose, but rose fastest among the lowest earners. New trade deals, criminal justice reform, borders were being secured, terrorists were being eliminated, taxes were lowered. gas $1.59/gal.

Joe Biden's Record: Hundreds of billions of U.S. tax dollars being wasted due to failed border policy. Violent crime out of control. Economic policies causing inflation. Stopped the XL pipeline killing thousands of good paying U.S. jobs, while approving the Russians pipeline. Failed withdrawal from Afghanistan leading to the death of American soldiers. Biden reached number one cause of death of young men as drug overdose. Has seen more die from COVID with the vaccine, than Trump without it, has seen 60k die this year of COVID alone, and has facilitated drug and human trafficking at the border, assisted in killing innocent Afghans, and is responsible for numerous deaths and major crimes caused by illegal aliens and single-handedly has caused the largest invasion into the U.S. in our history.

Haha that's a nice euphemism for it. If you boycott mcdonalds, other people can still go there. If you censor joe rogan, you're deciding for other people what they should or shouldn't hear, which is insanely authoritarian. Adults in free countries should be able to listen to conversations, even if he's interviewing somebody spewing 100% false information.

right now, your party is literally banning books. They are doing it, RIGHT NOW in texas. What the fuck are you talking about?? You are the party is actually banning books to DECIDE for other people what they should or shouldnt read, which is insanely authoritarian.

Um what are they banning? Books about pedophilia or books indoctrinating kids into radical gender theory that isn't even five years old yet?

Like, the comparison isn't even close bud. For every one authoritarian thing a republican might do, dems do like a hundred.

Here's a great piece by glenn greenwald perfectly breaking down the insane authoritarianism of the left. You guys should at least stop pretending it doesn't exist and start trying to justify it instead cause it's just undeniable at this point:

Choice nugget:

"For years, their preferred censorship tactic was to expand and distort the concept of "hate speech” to mean "views that make us uncomfortable,” and then demand that such “hateful” views be prohibited on that basis. For that reason, it is now common to hear Democrats assert, falsely, that the First Amendment's guarantee of free speech does not protect “hate speech." Their political culture has long inculcated them to believe that they can comfortably silence whatever views they arbitrarily place into this category without being guilty of censorship.

Constitutional illiteracy to the side, the “hate speech” framework for justifying censorship is now insufficient because liberals are eager to silence a much broader range of voices than those they can credibly accuse of being hateful. That is why the newest, and now most popular, censorship framework is to claim that their targets are guilty of spreading “misinformation” or “disinformation.” These terms, by design, have no clear or concise meaning. Like the term “terrorism,” it is their elasticity that makes them so useful."

Negative rights are what the government can't do to you, not the market. Take your dollars elsewhere if you don't like it.
