I don't think anyone takes that bitch seriously.

Also, that argument actually turns off well to do minorities. Persians, Indians, and Chinese Americans don't want gautemalan coke dealers here any more than you guys do

dude she was speaker of the house for 4 years and she was being floated as a serious 2020 frontrunner. don't support a party that puts fucking jokes of human beings like this into authoritative positions of power if you want to stop being mocked for it. im aware you all backpedaled from your support of Pelosi a few months ago.

Alternatively

Trump is a stupid mother fucker with baby hands who has to buy his wives even as he moves us closer to nuclear annihilation by letting the nuke treaty with Russia expire

America has become a joke. Stop worrying about things outside or your control pussy

Toehammer and Xaanka can't just admit that capitalism is unfair and rewards people in an unfair way. So they are unlike other fascists I know that way. Most fascists are conservatives. They readily support capitalism as the status quo economic system that has served us well in the past. But they also admit that it is imperfect and can have a destructive impact on traditional institutions like the nuclear family and friendly neighborhoods.

Toehammer and Xaanka are convinced that capitalism is a system that rewards good behavior. And that people unjustly benefiting is some rare aberration of capitalism.

I guess my question is, why is this idea so important to you guys? Why can't you just admit that capitalism is mostly unfair and often rewards the wrong kind of behavior and benefits the wrong kind of people?

I know plenty of capitalists that acknowledge the above...so why is it you can't?

So how much drugs are you on during normal business hours? 🤔

I have to smoke medical marijuana to treat my anxiety and depression; brought on by being cyber bullied for my communist beliefs.

The "wrong kind of behavior" and the "wrong kind of people"

Seems like JD needs some schooling in non-dualism

Skarlorn is a grifter that get idiots to buy things on false premises they can't really afford.

Actually, I'm a grifter who gets people to believe they can improve their lives!!

It's a confidence art, to be sure, so I'm content to be called a con-man. However, your latter two points are incorrect and assumptive.

Try smoking less pot during the day.

Hope this helps (you improve your life, because underneath that haze is a guy with great potential :-) )

As to your scathing indictment of capitalism, I can agree that the current capitalist model has some fundamental flaws which could be amended. To my relatively uneducated perspective, I think the main issue is the current oligarchy which has deep ties into the legislative forces in our country.

Personally, I would like to see better laws drawn up that prevent Capital interests from having such direct and pulling influence. This would do something to hinder the continuation of our oligarchy.

However, there is still a large margin for personal merit to help you achieve capital fortune. Then it's up to you to figure out what you want to do with it. You may bitch and moan all you want about having easy starts, but the simple fact is that if you have MERIT, you can go FAR, no matter from whence you came. Yes, it will be harder for a kid in the ghetto to escape untraumatized than a white boy from the suburbs. However, much of a person's ability to succeed is sourced in their ability to transmute trauma and suffering into a source of strength. We already have affirmative action.

Take responsibility for yourself. Take responsibility for your family members. The choices you make today are leveraged forward years and if you want to have a better socio-economic situation in 5 years, you can... but you need to be intelligent about every step you take between here and there. Don't be afraid to lose your old friends.
