Just based on very simple logic, there is no way to produce ANY coherent policy for the usa unless there is clarity about who is in fact a US citizen and who is not...who exactly is excluded? Because as it stands right now, a us citizen is defined by whether their mother dodged deportation long enough to pop out a baby, or anyone who dodged deportation long enough to be granted amnesty. Basically, the usa belongs to the entire world, as long as the person who wants to become a us citizen is willing to break a few laws and deal with a marginal amount of hassle. So...why does the country exist? Who exactly is the country for? Which people does it serve and which people does it fight? Without clear answers to those questions, the country is totally pointless and we might as well not have a country at all.

Democracy is intrinsically weak. Which is why it inevitably always shifts to plutocracy, as Aristotle pointed out over 2000 years ago. The technological changes we have experienced since then only makes a plutocracy more easy. Not more difficult. We currently live in a plutocracy. Which perhaps you should be somewhat thankful for, because it means we are not so weak that we could be conquered by the bloods criminal gang, which would certainly have happened if the country remained a genuine 'democracy'. Because there is nothing the people could unite under and actually fight for, other than speaking platitudes.

It's just a collection of platitudes and cliches that are too vague to inform a serious platform.

List of internally consistent political philosophies
Five of swords replied to Five of swords's topic in Political Philosophy
Eh? I don't see how you can have nationalism without socialism. If your priority is the well being of a people, then you cannot leave their fate to the 'market' which is totally apathetic about people and only sees profit. -
The masses are far too cowardly to ever 'rise up'. Even if they had the courage, there is no way that a large number of people just spontaneously self organize. Every revolution needs a leader. But leaders are very easy to just take out...either via assassination or by simply deplatforming them. There really is nothing the people could possibly do and there never will be.

JD Vance is the VP Pick
Five of swords replied to gatomontes99's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Ita a pretty obvious pick and I just don't believe there exists any significant population of 'undecided voters'. Nobody cares. An election is just a glorified Gallup poll and policies never change -
Uh...no...there absolutrly was genocide. Just because people with native American dna still exist in a glorified zoo doesn't mean there wasn't a genocide. Their habitat is gone. Their lifestyle is gone and obsolete. The entire identity of the few who survive is just wrapped up in being the people that Europeans genocided. They cannot even define themselves without the Europeans anymore. That is a big reason why people like frank baum advocated for simply completing the project. What is their continued survival even worth? Just being a defeated people for eternity? Anyway...they will likely outlive white people now. Cause at least they did attempt some token resistance.
-
The only reason 'first nations' still exist is because a lot of Europeans felt kinda bad about the prospect of completing the genocide so they made reservations designed to preserve the few tribes remaining. Those aren't going to survive current mass immigration either. The romans had no such reservations and no roman survived the waves of Gothic immigration. Cultures change. Yeah. Especially after a genocide. That is why I said it is ordinary.

Well this is why the democrats will always beat the gop. Democrats actually have the courage to fight their enemies. The gop are just cowards and none of them believe anything they themselves are saying. The gop talks all the time about what a threat to democracy the democrats are. Always have. According to the gop, the democrats are Satan worshipping pedophiles and oh also Hitler. Alex Jones says stuff like that all the time. But this never seems to result in assassination attempts on liberal politicians. Not by Republicans, at least. Maybe by jilted lovers or by the mafia or something. This is because the gop are all cowards. You can easily tell there is no literal Hitler in the usa right now because a literally Hitler would have taken this country over with very little effort.

Trump shot at his own rally

Well if Republicans just want to kill him then how would he win? -

So...of course he could never win an election -
So Stalin had just absorbed Estonia and Lithuania by intimidation, and they invaded Finland when Finland decided they did not want to be annexed. The agreement on a joint invasion of poland ACTUALLY was decided by Germany and the ussr...lol...but let's ignore that irrelevant point. Stalin actually openly proclaimed support for an ideology which intended global revolution and indeed promised to eventually conquer the 'capitalist' countries like the uk and the usa. But the uk made an allowance for Stalin invading poland...because they were far more concerned about the threat Germany posed...because Hitler was concerned about the germans in danzig potentially getting bullied by the polish government. That is your story. And France had by far the largest military in the world. And the uk had the largest empire in human history. And the usa and ussr were not exactly minor themselves. But you think the uk was just terrified that if Hitler was allowed to protect danzig, his army would wind up on the shores of Australia. The funniest thing about this narrative is if you see how the British empire collapsed immediately after 'WINNING' ww2, you cannot pretend to believe that the British empire even wanted to preserve itself.

Oh...you care about truth? Then try managing to truthfully answer the actual question I asked at the very start. If france/uk really just cared about poland and were scared about some evil dictator trying to conquer the world...why did they declare war on Germany instead of Stalin? Why not even declare on both? They did have a pact at that point...right? Just explain that. In some way consistent to your fake narrative.
