This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

More Liberal Lunacy!
« on: May 28, 2021, 12:36:43 AM »
Greetings!

Tucker Carlson discusses crime statistics, and various political policies throughout the country. Tragic, disgusting, but the lunacy of the Liberal Democrats is on full display in the brief program, and is hilarious!

Semper Fidelis,

  The good news is someone will tell you soon how it is not near the murder rates of the 90's (of course while leaving out the fact emergency rooms are quite a bit better at saving people now than they were in the 90's).  Some people love to get lost in the weeds about the rampant violence of the 90's, talk about how much better it is now, and forget the violence was largely quelled by that horrible and racist crime bill of the 90's.   It sort of turns into a bit of a mess.  I guess if we hit 25k murders this year maybe it will become a problem again.

The "problem" is that, for way too many, it is not about how many people get murdered, it's about which people get murdered.

The left seems oddly reticent about the second cyberattack (this one against our meat-production industry), especially as it may have originated from Russia like the first one did.

What happened to 'OMG Russians, evil Russians, and DRUMPH is in bed with them'?

I mean, I guess Pedo Joe and Heels-Up Harris have more important things to worry about, like ice cream, or how to dodge responsibility on the border crisis. But you'd think they'd say something.

  That is because it only matters if certain people die if a white cop has some sort of contact with them before they expired.  Otherwise, it sure seems some city leaders like to keep saying they are "working through the problems" as literal scores of people are shot every week in their city.  Or maybe even in a few minutes.

Totally, OGG! You can easily have two dozen black people killed in someplace like Chicago--in one weekend--killed by other blacks, and there's hardly a word about it. It barely makes the news, and is quickly dismissed with some mindless farting by a police official or city bureaucrat.

One black criminal killed somewhere by a white officer, and it's front-page news, and also starts a huge riot and burning and looting, and endless calls for police reforms, changing laws, and well, fuck it, lets let all the criminals out of prison while we're at it.

It is all anti-white racism aimed at spreading corruption, division, and a cascading series of "crisis" which conveniently provides the political leaders and a trainload of racist fucking demagogues and grifters with more money, and more power.

It's a kind of revolution--a "Colour Revolution".

Semper Fidelis,

And that's two sides of the same problem. People getting killed should matter regardless of how they died.

   Disagree, making sure everyone realizes that White Supremacy is killing all these people and White Supremacists are the ones that are public threat number 1 (which looking at crime stats will show anyone with a brain) is the message everyone needs to understand.

Tucker Carlson discusses crime statistics,

It’s been a truly frightening few months.
To think this is likely just beginning...
Evictions and homelessness likely to skyrocket by early 2022.
Stimulus checks only barely helped people get by.
I don’t get why instead of us paying to build highways in other countries we don’t give each American family $5k. It’s painful to see our tax dollars going to waste when they can be better spent at home.

How did you come to this conclusion? Since people haven't been spending as much, the saving rate has really gone up. Everything I've seen suggests most people just put their stimulus checks in the bank. And for a lot of people on the margins, it wasn't enough. Even with the money, they can't make rent or mortgage payments, are building up huge debt, are struggling with long term joblessness, or otherwise fell into the cracks. Sure, the handouts probably hit the sweet spot for a few people, but it seems to be a tiny number.

Those who could afford to save, done so because they knew the worst was yet to come.
Inflation, job insecurity, plus average life necessities. When I say give $5k, I mean to working American families. E.g For a family of 4 with 2 children $5k will only last a month or two if daddy was laid off, etc. Covid-19 was a national emergency, with real implications for small businesses. And big corp could careless how laying people off affect their quality of life. There’s nobody “saving” for real, once inflation skyrockets that money has a lot less value.

If the government wasn't printing all that money to go on a spending spree, inflation wouldn't skyrocket.

Unfortunately from what I see on the news only 10% of the last covid bill was actual relief. Since trillions is the new norm expect long term inflation ahead, lots of it.

Wait are you saying that trans and gender studies in Pakistan are a waste of money?  You transphobe!

AOC tried to use the damage to her grandmother's house from Hurricane Maria to make a political point. In response, people raised more than $100,000 to help her grandmother. Heart-warming story, yes?

No, of course not. It's a vicious attack. A righteous AOC canceled the fund raising drive, depriving her grandmother of more than a hundred thousand dollars in aid, because the donors were conservatives.

A lot of the media is taking the same tack:
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/blogger-aoc-puerto-rico-grandmother-b1860097.html

I think it's wonderful we live in a world where charity and helping the elderly has finally been recognized as vicious, despotic behavior that simply cannot be tolerated.
