Prominent figures:
Soros
Bezos
Dorsey
Zuck
Bloomberg
Cook
Gates
Bill Nye the Pseudoscience Guy
Neil Degrasse-Tyson
Bob Deniro
Almost all of Hollywood
Almost all MSM outlets
 

To name a few.

Most of this nation's uber rich agree with your politics.

I have considered these positions.  This is the result of 46 (coming up on that next one) years of walking this planet, reading, learning (and unlearning a lot of shit that I took for gospel as a kid educated in Florida's panhandle in the 80's).

Despite K's protestations, I don't watch Maddow.  Or any cable news.  Shit, the only time live television is on in my house is for a sporting event. 

I know that our country is great, but could be so much greater.  We are tied to dying ideologies for the sake of enriching the uber-rich at the expense of the rest of us.

Most of this nation's uber rich agree with your politics.  Why is that?

ETA: I do appreciate the genuine response.

One thing I do appreciate about Wes is that he at least will have the conversations that many folks on that side of the aisle won't have anymore.

He agrees with those people on EVERYTHING it seems, but he doesn't shy away from the sparring matches.

Ehh.  I took a gambol.  It just wasn’t up to par.

You don't need to take those gambols.  That's the mane point I'm trying to make.

This addresses Snake's equal opportunity vs. equal outcome.

In 2021, United Airlines released the following statement: “Our flight deck should reflect the diverse group of people on board our planes every day. That's why we plan for 50% of the 5,000 pilots we train in the next decade to be women or people of color.”

Yeah, I don't want the best pilot flying the plane I'm on.  I don't want the best doctor cutting me open.

Snake?  This guy is lost. 

He’s immersed in the lie.  I don’t know what happened to him. It’s hard to fathom.

Okay, now you're just trying to stirrup trouble.

Shit, there's so much here.  You still are building assumption on assumption.

Spell that out for me.

Oh, let's.  I want to hear about the "equal opportunity" part first, please.

The totality of his writing (read: the vast catalogue not recited on MLK Day) is very surprising to some who think that truncated quote from his speech represents the entirety of his politics.

Kaos is about to swear you off.


I'm not rehashing this "cancel culture" canard. 

Going to go ahead and point you at the increasingly irrelevant Bill of Rights...thanks, Roberts, et al.  That 1st still exists.  And while I don't put it past this SCOTUS to try and pervertedly parse it a la the 2nd, it's still the law.  Keep your church out of everyone's government.

I'll get more into it tonight after work, but we can start with a discussion surrounded by The New Deal, how it incentivizes single parenthood, and how it has directly impacted the crime rates & overall long-term wellbeing of American citizens.


Spell that out for me.

Another discussion we can have is surrounding the equal opportunities vs equal outcomes argument.

Or MLK's take to judge by the content of character and not by the color of skin.  These days, all anyone on the left seems to care about is race & gender identity.

The totality of his writing (read: the vast catalogue not recited on MLK Day) is very surprising to some who think that truncated quote from his speech represents the entirety of his politics.

Speaking of race, did you know that some colleges are advocating for segregated dormitories?  I am of the belief that segregation is a bad/evil thing, and hate that it is part of Southern heritage.

Kaos is about to swear you off.

Censorship & efforts to enforce certain speech are a direct contrast of what liberals used to stand for.  Yet, in today's world, we are in a constant loop of opposite day on this issue.

I'm not rehashing this "cancel culture" canard.

I know you are not religious, but it is true that this country was founded with Judeo-Christian moral values that guided foundational policies.  We are all the better for it.
