you're absolutely right! i need to get a life... participating on these threads have inspired me to research the science of logic and how human belief systems work. i have built and sold two engineering companies and have a BSc in Computer Science and a Masters in Data Science and Machine Learning so that knowledge extrapolates and will be a benefit to me in the future. but of course, over time i get that there are only about 6 people on here i'm debating and they will never change their minds about anything. you can ask stoic questions all you like. their very worlds would fall apart if they were to be wrong in any of their manufactured belief systems. and thats good to know too. that people like that exist. so its been easy torturing people when shit for brains Trump is leader of the free world. but of course, when i stop learning so much i'm just wasting my time. there is absolutely no reason to debate someone who has a response like: "When the Catholic church ran the hospitals in this country, it was normal to have volunteers. Women could learn nursing on the job with less time spent in schools. Now there's a huge education industry and a 100% paid nursing industry and we pay for it all." that IS the stupidest post i've ever seen on this entire board. not to single you out. there have been a lot of ignorant excuses for fabricated belief systems. some truly deranged thinking. but it hits me at a low point. you've learned nothing from our talks. the typing is a waste of time.

you got me! i don't know what to say... you're a complete !diot.

Zelensky says Ukraine prepared to discuss neutrality in peace talks two years ago. the only way your version of reality can be true is if hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians were somehow being forced to participate in this war. thats not happening. they are fighting a much larger foe and they will not stop. the west could abandon them and they will not stop. i get that you are a Putin lover or something. but that guy is an international terrorist. the Ukrainian people know that. you don't. are you actually a Russian immigrant or something? whats with the Russian nationalism?

so you're asking why Putin invaded? are you ignorant of what its like to be a citizen of Russia and that of a democracy? if JT said, no more media unless it praises me! all elections will be rigged in my favour! all industries and business will be transferred to my political colleagues! i shall run the state forever! you'd prefer that kind of Canada or the admittedly not perfect system that we and most western democracies have now?

some of this is just... false. but so what? no system is going to be perfect... what is your alternative? to have all roads privately owned? to have all rail privately owned? to have the all emergency service show up at your house only if you pay a privately owned supplier? do we privatize the electrical grid like has been experimented in other jurisdictions to find out that private fraud was even more dangerous? or the water supply? i'm all ears here... do tell!

we will miss you here when your social security cheque stops and your power goes out.

yeah, its easy to predict that the US may default under Trump. what an accomplishment for Trumps second term! he, of course, will try to make it a Democratic default but... the GOP have majorities in all three houses! he's burning bridges. the GOP have been burning bridges for years. the age of bipartisanship has long sailed.

what are you missing? they were neutral for most of their independence. they have suggested they continue to be independent and not seek NATO membership to negotiate the end of the war. Putin doesn't care. he wants to rebuild the old Soviet Union. he's said so! don't you get that?

oh right, the US needs federal workers... who knew? IRS: Some employees can’t take buyout until after filing deadline The Hill better watch itself or it'll become a target like Politico for publishing stuff that... you know... is happening. even though its owned by News Nation.

yes, there is.

you mean posts about Trumps "crap for brains". as many as Trump gives me reason to... they're coming in hard every day now. the volume of shit for brains executive actions is truly staggering.

as discussed in other posts... the Trumps admins furry to attack government spending is a failing attempt to somehow offset the hole his extended tax cuts for corporations is going to blow in the debt ceiling. its not going to work. if he can't cut military spending or non-discretionary spending then its just going to be another borrowing fiasco. Republicans stare down massive deficits to extend Trump tax cuts

everyone gets what Musk is doing with DOGE. what people don't understand is that he is a bull in a china shop for a reason... to try and pay for the huge deficit Trump is about to blow to extend his tax cuts for the rich. Musk said he could cut $2T in spending... then $1T... i bet he can't leverage more than a few hundred million. not unimportant but at great cost and chaos. when you look at the pie of where the US government spends its money, if you cut out all non-discretionary spending... its really peanuts. thats why these guys are SO DESPERATE. a case in point. the recent attempt to get ANY federal workers to quit. its very non-surgical nature is going to be a disaster. every bureaucracy has inefficiencies and its a constant task to identify those and rectify. but it never goes away. will the people who are not productive in the federal service take the "buy out"? no. the people can easily get other jobs the private sector will. the talented people. but these guys don't care because the Trump TAX CUTS are all that matters.

GOP support for Musk influence with Trump falls dramatically everyone gets what Musk is doing with DOGE. what people don't understand is that he is a bull in a china shop for a reason... to try and pay for the huge deficit Trump is about to blow to extend his tax cuts for the rich.

Trump: ’60 Minutes’ should be ‘immediately terminated’ after Harris transcript release “CBS and 60 Minutes defrauded the public by doing something which has never, to this extent, been seen before,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social website. “They 100% removed Kamala’s horrible election changing answers to questions, and replaced them with completely different, and far better, answers, taken from another part of the interview.” a complete lie. Transcripts show ’60 Minutes’ edited Kamala Harris’ remarks during interview 'He asked what the United States could do to end the war between Israel and Hamas. The transcript shows Harris gave a 140-word response that the New York Post describes as “rambling.” However, when the “60 Minutes” program aired, editors cut down her answer to a succinct 56-word reply.' 'In a second example, Whitaker asked Harris about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu charting his own course and defying the Biden administration. The transcript shows Harris gave a 179-word answer. However, “60 Minutes” only used 20 seconds.' every news organization does stuff like this and Trump is probably the most edited politician on earth. Trump is suing for $10B.
