the i dont care about politics anymore thread

You don't have to register parties in Georgia.

This is the internet, and it's not the first rodeo for either of us.

In real life, we have to be a lot more sociopathic. You tailor a leftoid conversation to the audience. I had lunch with a Tennessee state trooper at the hospital a few months ago, and you can bet your ass he wanted to talk politics. You think I open up with "WELL ANTIFA IS FUCKIN' GREAT OFFICER"

I frame these concepts differently when speaking in person, but the basic elements are all still there.

Mayor Pete sucks but some kind of non-military national service like that would be great.

I see all of the movements to rename things that are monuments to slaveowners and murderers in this country as job opportunities. The democrats just need to take a cue from the republicans regarding plans like that, don't frame it as "correcting history" or whatever, but call it "job creation"

If a 15 year old sucker punched me in the face I’m taking a tire iron to his teeth and doing the same to his father

Any male relatives I can find get the same treatment. For that matter, make your kids shut the fuck up in public. Speak when spoken to, otherwise understand the sum total of your life experience is nothing and respect your elders you little shit

I beat my sons enough that they’d never think of talking back to an adult. Things have definitely changed

I remember as a kid I slammed a door in my dad’s face and locked it and he chopped it down with a hatchet. I jumped out the second floor window and ran away because he would’ve probably killed me. You didn’t slam a door in dad’s face

The Middle East is bad ass. We con red and are scowling, ready to attack

They're gonna bail these banks out though.

Not sure how I feel about that. One the one hand it's fantastic for the innocent business owners that had substantial deposits and could lose their businesses, on the other hand at some point these institutions need to fail.

they have to be bailed out as it's a matter of national security

these business who hold large pieces of the economic pie can't be allowed to fail, lest the whole thing should fall like the house of cards that it is.

"too big to fail" actually means, "so big that if they fail, we all do"

Bail the banks. Jail the guy that failed the banks.
