« on: Today at 03:37:08 PM »in other trump news here is another good thing for america:I wonder how he proposes to enforce this. Will they check with the employer and their payroll to verify the immigrant is being paid?
https://www.financialexpress.com/business/investing-abroad-trump-has-effectively-banned-indians-h-1b-techies-react-to-new-wage-based-system-3946899/
im sure someone disagrees
Also: I'm not against it.
he will probably enforce it with epic yuge bigly tweets/truths since he has a habit of doing things without thinking more than five seconds into the future.
it would be good to see, but i will remain skeptical until something actually shows a result.

Again, none of this is relevant. As you've said, you can post what you like, sure, but coming into a thread where a particular subject is being discussed and responding to a particular point I've raised by, uh, complaining about how I review movies is really just a weird thing to do.
sorry. i will dumb it down for you. im trying to get you to express an original thought for once. does not matter if it is politics or movies or anything else about the CuLtUrE you are so plugged into. i truly am sorry if you dont understand that very simple thing. i wont bother anymore. continue droning on with whatever opinion you just read about and feel the need to make a post for. you really are a very weird and lost cause...

til that i am a fascist and garygreen does not care about crime.
these two things are definitely accurate so i will just concede the point because we dont live in a world where nuance can be discussed. everything is as simple as orange man bad, which is what all the replies have been. maybe someday we can have actual discussions because the people who know me already know im far closer to dsa than i am maga or republican. rushy may clown on me for putting other needs before my own because he knows im generous and empathetic to my own self detriment.
THANK YOU FOR YOU ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER and have a blessed day.
hopefully we can find a way to smile and laugh again in the future, but Pac was right all those years ago.

uh oh trump did a gooder thing that neolibs have been screeching about from the moment it was announced. ill wait patiently for folks to remind me why crime is a good thing instead of acknowledging the fact that orange man did a thing that actually benefits regular every day people. i havent doomscrolled enough yet to see people calling the DC mayor an uncle tom by now for giving credit but im sure i will run across it soon enough.

« on: August 28, 2025, 04:50:52 PM »If you aren't interested in discussing anything with anyone, all you have do is not post in the thread. You don't need to waste everyone's time by announcing how much you don't care.
i do care, that is the problem. the only thing a lot of people here care about is yelling at the clouds to prove they are on the """right side""" atop their high horse. but i will post when i feel like it. deal with it, peanut. having said that, and knowing the little i know about you after having met in person nearly a decade ago, there are things about you i respect too. if you want me to take actual interest in anything you post i will do that earnestly if you do something for me, let's call it a challenge. i want you to pick a random film that you haven't seen or read other's opinions about. watch it. then, post an initial reaction in the media thread of your first thoughts that can't be swayed because you didn't have any bias going into it. then, still don't read anything about it, but take time to process and write a wall of text review entirely in your own words and opinion. you might get clowned on, but those are the opinions i am interested in and respect. and i promise i will respond in the same manner whether i agree or not. hopefully you see where i am going with this. if not, that is okay too.
EDIT — everyone i disagree with or they disagree with me is getting TRUMP 2028 hats.
EDIT #2 — i have been advised that there will no longer be elections by 2028 so i am going to start with TRUMP 2029 and release a new edition every year. thank you for your attention to this matter.

« on: August 28, 2025, 01:18:52 PM »I'm not clamoring for Trump to release the Epstein files
the rest of your post that im not bothering to read in its entirety proves otherwise, but i am not interested in nitpicking specifics of a topic since you are still hammering on $currentThing like every neolib at the moment.
i will just put on my TRUMP 2032 hat and let you talk at the forum.
action69 is a more interesting person to talk to than 90% of the people in this thread. and i know we dont agree on a good number of topics. he used to just rant angrily for the longest time, but his opinions have at least always been consistent over the years which is something i respect even if we disagree. i have zero interest in engaging with people who just want to say things to the crowd without any interest in willing to be wrong or change their mind (that is you and many in this thread). anyway i will just tell you that you are right because that is all you are looking to get out of any discussion. if you want a TRUMP 2028 hat i will happily send you one.

« on: August 28, 2025, 12:45:11 AM »it isnt, and im as far away from maga you could possibly imagine.No, you're actually the worst form of MAGA, someone who has been deeply indoctrinated into Trumpian beliefs and doesn't know it. It is manifested in statements like,all you have to say going forward is "orange mad bad" because that is all it amounts to.Because you have no defense to all the stupid, shitty, ill-conceived stuff that Trump says and does. All you can do is bitch and moan about past Democrats.
Perhaps you can MAGAsplain why Trump is protecting Clinton with some argument besides, "Obama bad, orange man sent by Jesus and all liberals suck."
lol
keep going

it isnt, and im as far away from maga you could possibly imagine. but since you are seemingly incapable of having an original thought and just regurgitate the exact same things repeated ad nauseam on r/politics i am not going to bother doing a long back and forth of pointing out all the ways you are wrong. all you have to say going forward is "orange mad bad" because that is all it amounts to.

« on: August 26, 2025, 09:38:12 PM »I don't know anything about the Epstein case. It's Bondi's responsibility, not mine.
if you didn't care about the truth coming when biden was president, don't try to pretend to care now. the internet is flooded with this most recent talking point from whatever DNC think tank. crazy how there weren't thousands of daily posts about releasing the files until just recently. it is disingenuous and absolute scumbag behavior.

Remember that guy?
Yeah, apparently they decided that his crimes were... Not severe so they're asking him to plead guilty and in exchange they'll send him to Costa Rica instead of Uganda.
Because sending him to his home country is no longer what they wanna do. And its either a 3rd world African nation, or Costa Rica.
unless you have cognitive dissonance and/or lack emotional maturity you would not give two seconds of attention to what happens to a spousal abuser who is also here illegally. sorry, let us just pretend to support absolutely retarded positions because trump bad and those are the only headlines you read.
it is almost like there is a term for these coordinated talking points in journalism...

« on: August 12, 2025, 02:58:57 PM »So Trump is using allegedly bad data to determine what to do in DC. Doesn't that mean it's worse than he thought and he still wants to take over?i think we have different interpretations of what "take over" means.
Also, why order all homeless people out? Homeless was isn't illegal.it should be. i don't like looking at it.

are you sure it is not just because crime rates are actually on the rise and police have been fudging the numbers?
