Republicans have given up on healthcare
User replied to Matthew's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
The underlying stupidity of their whole argument is that they want to tear down health care that is great for the vast majority of people because the extreme minority do not have it... Just focus on the extreme minority then. You don't have to ruin the whole system. Its as dumb as saying that people in America still go hungry, so we must abolish all grocery stores for profit and the entire for profit food industry and create bread lines so that no one goes hungry. Or, hear me out, we can give people food stamps and other assistance to make sure they don't starve instead of ruining it for everyone else. -

Changing quotes is just outright dishonest. Go talk to yourself in notepad if that is what you are going to do. -

They like walls when they are around their conventions too. -
This you? LOL "Is there a way I can be notified, or see the latest posts only from people that I have not ignored? It's just that when I go to scan the latest posts, such posters are buried in the load of ignored posts. It's just getting harder and harder to use the site with all of this.. basically spam" Yes, you can ignore people... by ignoring them. Using the built in features of this website to hide from posters though? LOL. That is your safe space.

Well, as long as we are talking about the actual legal definitions of what constitutes discrimination and harassment.

RFK Jr. considering endorsing Trump?
User replied to CouchPotato's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
No, she refused to meet with him at all, any "deal" was just rumors. The real story is that he already met with Trump in July and wanted to talk about a unity government and said he would also be trying to meet with Harris. He tried, she said no. No deal was turned down. -
Safe spaces are absurdly dumb. College is supposed to be preparing people for the world, to challenge them. That aside, what is outright wrong and should be stopped with Federal law enforcement action are the outright racist segregation spaces some of these colleges promote. Black only dorms, Black only meeting spaces, Black only study spaces. Those should be shut down. Safe spaces should be mocked.

LOL OMG, are you for real? You routinely threaten to ignore, place on ignore, encourage others to ignore, and then complain to the admin about how you still see that people you have on ignore are showing up...

What’s Wrong With George Bush?
User replied to Rebound's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Not a false accusation. Myata has run away from me several times I have pointed out a lie. Feel free to tell me which lie I have told here, I have no problems defending myself or admitting I am wrong on something. I routinely condemn Trump as well. I am not a sycophant supporter like some of you are. -
Republicans have given up on healthcare
User replied to Matthew's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
That is hardly an indisputable cold-hard statistic. The way life expectancy is measured is different across countries, AND America has an obesity problem compared to many other countries that heavily impacts life expectancy. -
Why the Democrats Are Right

The Democrats were fully onboard with blocking this stuff for most of that time too. So... ? -
Republicans have given up on healthcare
User replied to Matthew's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
No, he came down for a crown. Whatever services were in his area did not offer same-day crowns. His waiting in lines was for health care. His friend broke foot in car crash, they go to Hospital ER, wait for 8 hours into 3am before getting an X-ray, but they can't cast it, so they just wrap it and send home. They are still waiting a week later for a cast. Something you could walk into just about anywhere here and have done in less than an hour, even pay out of pocket for almost nothing. -

Why is Hamas refusing to sign onto a cease fire deal with Israel?
User replied to blackbird's topic in The Rest of the World
Well, I have not seen the terms of this ceasefire, but if Israel signed on, I imagine it no longer includes the absurd language that they must 100% withdrawal from Gaza areas. Hamas will only agree to a deal where they both get to live on and they can resume their operations to smuggle weapons in. Every other ceasefire deal before this has been absurd and the fact that the US was pushing that garbage onto Israel is an outrage. I only hope Israel didn't sign onto such garbage this time too. -
No, this thread had a simple point: Walz is a liar, he used his family's experience to lie to try to capitalize on the politics around IVF at the time. LOL, this is your big argument. Who cares how much Harris and Walz lie, as long as they are winning! Please spare us any more of your phony outrage about anything Trump ever does or says ever again.

Glad you admit it. -
Right... so your big plan is for them to just keep doing the same old thing? They were losing ground on the front lines regardless of what they did here. Sending these men back to those same front lines would have marginal benefit. They have been able to take a massive amount of land from Russia now and are forcing Russia to adapt to them. The war is going to be fought here or on the existing front lines either way. I am pretty sure someone knows... likely the same reason when America goes to war in various places we don't literally put all 2 million of our forces there. That takes money, resources, and leaves you vulnerable in other places. The simple reality is that Russia has suffered massive losses. While they have not mobilized their entire military... I don't think they can. They can barely mobilize the forces to keep up with the losses they have now. They are using mercenaries, conscripts, prisoners, having to scrape up the men to feed into the meat grinder. Thier military today is nothing compared to what it was before this war. I think I read from last year they had already lost something like 80% of their ground forces from their entire military. Just like our military, not everyone is ground forces, or combat infantry. Most serve some kind of support or logistics roles in other fields. So, no, I think you are wildly over estimating just how much man power Russia is sitting on that they could deploy. That is exactly why Putin has not forcefully retaken the Kursk region as well. You make it sound like he just has some massive military sitting around Moscow picking their noses... and who knows why Putin has not sent them down there to just finish Ukraine off. Yeah, right. I am not taking anything out of context here, I am reading it. You keep saying this is a done deal... but that is not the language being used. Is this rhetorical? I just answered this already. It is not my story. You are here saying this is a waste, I am telling you Ukraine thinks otherwise and I gave you their reasons why. The irony is that your repeated arguments on here have been all about how much land Russia is taking from Ukraine, and now when Ukraine takes massive amounts of land from Russia... it is a waste! No value here! No Strategy! OMG, Ukraine should have just sent those men to the front for more of the same.

Except, ALL of the Ukraine forces are not committed to the existing borders where the fighting was any more than Russian forces are. For all the forces Russia has, it was ill-prepared to deal with something like this, and it is having to scramble to respond. Even the sources you provided explained how Russia was pulling units off the front from several positions to try to respond to this. So, no, it was not just a matter of Russia has forces in Russia that were deployed like there was zero impact on their existing war efforts. Um... I am not great here at digging into the procedural process of where this is at exactly, but the sources you continue to provide say: "Germany is planning... draft budget" Yet, you say it is a done deal. Even then, the latest news: German chancellor says Ukraine aid will continue despite savings push “We will be Ukraine’s biggest national supporter in Europe,” Scholz told reporters during a visit to the Moldovan capital. https://www.politico.eu/article/olaf-scholz-germany-ukraine-aid-continue-war-russia/ Looks like more equipment too: https://www.defensenews.com/global/europe/2024/08/20/germany-affirms-ukraine-military-aid-amid-budget-maneuvering/ "Among the equipment the government reaffirmed it would send by the end of the year are two additional IRIS-T SLM air defense systems; two IRIS-T SLS launchers; ten Gepard anti-aircraft guns; 16 Panzerhaubitze 2000 howitzers as well as Zuzana and RCH 155 self-propelled howitzers; combat drones; several thousand rounds of artillery ammunition and ammunition for armored vehicles, and a batch of 30 Leopard 1A5 tanks." The point being, your notion that somehow Germany was no longer committed to this war effort doesn't seem to be accurate at all. Yes, Russia can't keep this up forever as compared to Ukraine. The amount of land they are losing, as it has been repeatedly pointed out to you, would take a lifetime for them ever actually to conquer Ukraine. You and I will be dead before then. And yet again, here you are going on about land... when Ukraine just captured more land from Russia in 2 weeks than Russia has taken all year. So... I guess you should be worried about Russia being conquered now, right? My point, was that I have provided you a source explaining that Ukraine has a goal and strategy with what they are doing... you are free to have all the opinions you want on this, but it is not my opinion when I am giving you the facts to answer the doom and gloom you are pushing on here and the opinion you are pushing on here that this is just a waste. Clearly, it is not just a waste at all that Ukraine is doing this.
