Nearly everyone here, who's on that extreme left side of the spectrum, I've seen talking about mental health issues, or about going to their therapist
probably because we are smart enough to confront the mental issues we may have and decide to do something about them.

just as many people on the right are mentally troubled, they just don't trust doctors enough (because of antivax Facebook propaganda) to go and get their head checked. Just take a look at MAGA.

Obsessing over people's genitals, trying to get people banned from sports, engaging in a stupid culture war distracting them from the real problems in current society, and just hating everybody they see on the street. None of that is stuff a normal person does.
Not to mention all the rednecks out in the trailer parks that are 99% republican despite needing food stamps and government cash to survive
You call black people and Latinos garbage but somehow I'm the bigot. Please continue on your hate screed.

Black people were democrat majority especially the women- this picture is dumb and misrepresentation
What I don't understand is why Trump wants to go after the EV push. Isn't he close buddies with Elon Musk, owner of Tesla and producer of Electric Vehicles?
He likes oil and gas, so he's going to try and keep fossil fuels alive at whatever cost
That being said I'm fine with this- Biden's approach of pushing EVs instead of finding newer, more sustainable fuels for ICE didn't appeal to me much as a car enthusiast. California especially took it too far pushing for an all EV mandate by 2030.

If I were president I'd sooner redesign America moreso around trains than cars to really curb the climate problem- manufacturing of any new car, EV or ICE, is still environmentally harmful at the end of the day, so if we wanted to work on that we'd simply just make it less necessary to own one. Leave it to the enthusiasts and people who enjoy the usage of cars to own one instead of forcing it upon everybody with long and large roads that prevent a walking person from getting anywhere
The liberal party of the time, yes. This has already been clarified.
Like seriously, how are these people willing to be that dishonest? Everyone should know this and they've been told multiple times but they're still gonna act like the Republican party in the 1800s is the same as today's Republican party.
 
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Damn, so no more rolls of paper towels to that "garbage island" then?

well yes, that's why this thread exists
for a few weeks until it becomes untenable this thread will contain all of the fuckhead-type people on both sides and moderators will wade in with a thresher when they feel like being traffic cops and throw warnings
call it the traditional GBAtemp burning off, happens like once a year

lmao
nobody thinks kamala was doing that salute
why even post this, your side is just chuckling at getting one over on us but we're not got, nobody's got by this
you've been doing the "oh it's out of context" shit for a decade now, at one point dumbshit liberals bought it, but even they know now
why are you still performing

i dont wanna worry about it because i overthink CONSTANTLY..
i might have anxiety or whatever, ill get it checked soon (tm)
please get it checked
your mental health is important, and addressing it early is the way to go

Life has a bit of a twisted humor now that I think about it.

To see Elon Musk do a Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging salute gesture with a "Sieg Heil" at the end.

(Apparently he edited his video on X to hide. What a big Oops)

It makes me think, "Damn."
Did all the 416,800 American WWII soldiers truly die for this?! 🤣

I think that's really the thing. If a big public outcry came out from me accidentally doing a roman salute, I'm not hiding the evidence while all the Nazis go "OUR GUY KEK"

He slapped his chest so hard for that vile salute, it was audible. :unsure:
That's how hard of a Nazi Elon Musk is.

We're ignoring the insane liberal hysteria like the shit you just posted for the next 4 years.
Post the videos of those happening or shut the fuck up you dishonest, willfully ignorant troll.

We have video of Elon nazi saluting, what do you have? Still images? Grasping at straws is sad as hell:rofl2::rofl2:
 
I was deployed to Iraq in 2003-2004. I can say there were no WMD's there. Bushitler lied us into another war that killed millions of brown people, but you don't care because Michelle Obama hugs him and gives him chocolate. The left are pathetic.
No, you really can't. They were found buried sometime later. Google nowadays will have AI dig the information out for you. I wasn't boots on the ground, but I was in the Gulf several times, including before the war you speak of (Operation Southern Watch was my first, and I've been a VFW member since). Also for OEF and OIF.

"Yes, buried weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) were found in Iraq. These weapons included chemical warheads, shells, and aviation bombs.

Discovery

  • A New York Times investigation found that the military recovered thousands of chemical weapons in Iraq.
  • Soldiers often found these weapons while digging through enemy caches or old stockpiles.
"


What wars did Trump start? Last I checked, Ukraine and Israel kicked off while the potato was in office.
There were exactly ZERO wars started during Trump's tenure, and he even brokered the Abraham accords, so I'm still wondering WTF Obama did to deserve a Nobel prize, when Trump didn't? His team also just helped broker the Gaza/Israel cease fire, and it was days BEFORE he even got sworn back in!

The whole stopping the Ukraine war on day 1 had a wrench thrown into it as soon as Biden authorized the US weapons to be fired into Russia. He tried his best to block Trump's promises, and then pardoned his whole family (and others) without them ever being charged with anything. Un. Fucking. Hinged.

i just don't want to be discriminated against for not using my assigned at birth gender, however it's clear where his stance is on that.
When it comes to his inaugural declarations for what he wants to do i can't really say, i'm not a psychic, i'm not an economic forecaster, i didn't study anything political, i'm just some shmuck who works in a warehouse for 10 hours a day, and i'm proud for being me and want to keep being me.
 
when Trump didn't
He bombarded more in 4 years than Obama in 8. I guess he's gonna double Bush now.

I dont recall you saying this when Dump did the exact same thing but also for all his criminal pals.

What it actually says: "The United States had gone to war declaring it must destroy an active weapons of mass destruction program. Instead, American troops gradually found and ultimately suffered from the remnants of long-abandoned programs, built in close collaboration with the West."

So yes, US lied just to steal oil.
 
I really hate to be the one posting this.

I know some people willingly choose to be in denial, but the gesture is seriously as blantant as giving someone a middle finger. There's absolutely no defense to this and you would seriously have to be on psychedelics to say that it isn't what people think.

(And the comparisons some of you all make are dubious at best. Outright disingenuous.

Now, one could definitely argue about Musk's intent of the gesture.
But the gesture itself?! No.

(Although, imagine giving a middle finger to someone, as an act of love. No one would believe that 🤣)

We never *took* an ounce of oil from them. Any oil we have EVER got from them, was PURCHASED.

A pardon is for CONVICTED people. Accepting a pardon, is an admission of guilt. Trump made no such pardon (as Biden has), nor did he try to make it cover "potential" crimes within the period of several years (as Biden did for his son). Nor has any other POTUS in history.

"
1. In 1915, the Supreme Court indeed said, of pardons, that “acceptance” carries “a confession of” guilt. Burdick v. United States (1915). Other courts have echoed that since.

2. On the other hand, a pardon has historically been seen as serving several different functions, one of which is protecting people who were convicted even though they were legally innocent. In the words of Justice Joseph Story, the most respected early commentator on the Constitution (writing in 1833),
"


You are a complete idiot, and suffer from an incurable case of TDS.
 
Kamala: 36:05

I can believe it happening accidentally, as here where you can see she was gesturing with a pointed finger just a few seconds before she opens her hand. That's not how you do the salute. I think it makes little sense that she would be trying to sneak a subtle signal in to Nazis, who from what I understand are not fond of her.

I can also believe it happening deliberately, such as from someone doing it much more directly, twice in a row, who has previously repeated Nazi and far-right rhetoric. There being two possibilities does not prevent me from drawing conclusions on which is more likely.
