It shouldn’t be, but I feel like this is such a delicate thing.

Like, Trump is obviously racist, but his base sees themselves in him and when he is labeled racist, it projects to them; they’re labeled racist too. They “know” they aren’t racist and it’s a strong accusatory word along the lines of being called a pedophile and that instantly brings up defenses and basically kills any chance of swaying their opinion. Besides, if we were wrong calling “them” (their projection from trump) racist, how could we possibly be right about calling Trump racist?

Should we give a shit what these people think? Really wish we didn’t have to, but the world isn’t fair and just enough at the moment to disregard the nuance here.

This user doesn’t deserve the down votes.

They’re not saying that Trump should get more votes because of his trash headlines and behavior, they’re just calling out because it’s just what happens with that fascist.

Democrats should, unfortunately, do the same kind of massive attention seeking to resonate with those of his base that aren’t completely set on just being evil. It makes the candidate look active, engaged, decisive, and not passive on any matter, no matter how small.

Anyone who pays attention to Trump knows he has no substance with what he says, but because he’s always front and center of every little issue (or at least that’s how he’s got the media optics playing for him), it makes him seem very present and on top of things. Think of it like being a useless office worker, but you always walk around looking angry and in a hurry so people assume you’re busy and working hard.

Like it or not, there is huge value in that in this whole dumb popularity contest.

What would he do?

I’m up voting both of you and I’m sad about it

No guys, you don’t understand. Mr scruffy has it all figured out and we’re all dummies who want genocide.

Thankfully Mr scruffy is working hard to get trump elected so all the lovely Muslims, whom Trump frequently compliments, are going to get sweet kisses every night and he’ll make sure those mean old Israelis don’t bother them.

Russia joined Nazi Germany in an alliance during WW2.

Russia is murdering civilians without pause and you are okay with this.

Your brand of anarchy is garbage.

Yeah, he’s from earth too. Should add that to your common denominator list.

Cut an anarchist and a Russian stooge bleeds

Anarchist who spreads Russian lies and propaganda. Try your anarchist shit there and see how far your love for them goes.

Talk about hypocritical. Forgetting the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact are you?

Russia are Nazis through and through. Their genocide, their imperialism, their standing up of the most horrific dictators around the world.

Don’t you ever forget Russia would be speaking German if not for America and keep your bullshit Nazi propaganda to yourself.

Know who are literal Nazis? Opportunistic Russian trash. They literally joined in an agreement with the Nazis at the beginning of WW2 and Russia would be speaking German if not for America.

Statement of the year.

I am so disappointed with Israel and it has never been clearer they are not America’s ally. They just expect America to always be there for them and not only do nothing in return for America, but now they are actively undermining our international relationships and more election interference than China, Russia, and Iran combined (and I constantly roast them about it too). It has forever changed my perception of Israel.

A loser like him won’t even have a grave. Just thrown away like garbage

Very legit sources. Everyone I know goes to prolewiki and johnmenadue.com lol

Can you please stop posting the same political comments every time? Everyone knows you’ll only post anti democratic comments and your little circle jerk is getting old

Is there one guy in Newcastle who is so bad at shutting up that you just assume a story from anywhere in the world is probably about him? Lol

“calculated by estimating stocks” lol

They are both horrible war crimes and should be treated as such.

People understand the importance of the Malacca straight, Taiwan, and the various islands in that region. It’s the same reason Japan rapidly expanded into that region during WW2, bringing unimaginable suffering to the people in that region.

Maybe you aren’t making this point, and sorry if you aren’t, but that strategic interest does not give China the right to illegally sieze territory to suit itself. That is imperaliam. That is what Russia is doing in Ukraine and it is absolutely wrong.

Why does China not try to make allies in the region
