Hey, did I say that my apartment was on fire, and post a video of mlk being a republican. Easy search 

Yes you did try and gain empathy by saying Antifa was trying to light your apt on fire when reality was it was a random shithead lighting a dumpster on fire.

I don’t know if you posted a MLK was a Republican video, or if that was even a regular post of yours. It’s something you would do, and that’s why I used “when convenient.” Your literalist lens right now is annoyingly infantile.

There are tons of conservatives/libertarians on this board.  I voted against Obama twice.  The obvious truth is that there is NOTHING about Trump that is conservative or libertarian.  Any genuine conservative or libertarian bailed 4 years ago, hence the shift in tone on this board from the first half of the 2010s.  'Conservative/Libertarian' is just a label you folks use so you don't have to admit that you treat politics like sports and cheer on your team regardless.

Amusing...

His money is hard at work. I’m tying to figure out if a crashing economy will improve the return on investment.

Edited to add that while @Johnny Sack also ignores posts that are contrary to his chosen message, other posts he makes, unlike our new kiddo, makes me think about an aspect I hadn’t considered on a given subject. I think that is a good thing.

The name calling is bullying. I know that and I will cease doing it myself. Apologies to all.

“Conservatives” f’n hated MLK. Polling at the time wasn’t even close.

And he was exactly the “radical left” that you guys hate so much. His views on poverty were even more radical than his views on race. “Conservatives” proof-text MLK quotes the same way they do Bible, with the same result: turn the gospels of compassion and kindness and forgiveness into a book of armed vengeance and ruthless profits and shit.

Sharp, accurate post.
Yet economical.
Hacked, or just actually practicing law?

I mean that statement, free of context, isn’t moronic at all. The further you drift away from the center, the further to the “other side” shit’s gonna look.

However, the drift that’s occurred in this country over the past 40-odd years has been to the right and 99.99% of the time, when a right winger makes an accusation of someone or some idea (especially in America) being “far left,” what they’re really saying is that those things are to the left of Atila the Hun.

So Bravo is simply projecting here by inverting reality. He’s saying that everyone to the left of him has drifted so far to the left that “moderates” like him now look like Reed Irvine. That’s just typical conceit that people like him have. It’s easy to call yourself a “moderate,” but that’s something that actually has to be examined. “I’m a moderate” isn’t the same thing as “I’m a fan of Texas Longhorn football.”

My favorite government prof back in the day was Jay Budziszewski, who is about as conservative as you can get. His "Resurrection of Nature" is still one of my favorite political philosophy books.

When he stuck to his lane in class, discussing Aquinas and Aristotle, he was very well worth engaging in discourse. When he went off the reservation and enabled the childish, racist tripe put forth by the Young Conservatives of Texas, he was barely tolerable.

You skipped the actual discussion of ideas part by refusing to admit the facts in evidence. Being too muleheaded to admit statements of fact is why you are a maroon pariah here, not because of your interpretation of fact. I don't know why you are so delusional, but you are. You are entitled to your opinions, but not to your own version of fact.

as a matter of fact, this is why people who totally didn't vote for trump republicans left this forum in the first place. they were called out for actual policy shit. they had nothing, like ag with kids here. so they left.

it's one of the more frustrating things about the trump era. at least with reagan, bush sr, and bush w, we had some illusion of policy. they were trying to do things. and hell, most of the time, at the time, i agreed with those things. 

trump didn't try to do things. he tried to undo things. that was his sole purpose. undo the obama administration, because of a white house press correspondents' dinner. he spent four years trying to undo obama's birthplace before even entering the race. then he was humiliated. so he made it his sole purpose to undo everything the man did.

he's a negative space. he's a black hole. and to be a republican supporter today, you have to essentially be a nihilist. must be exhausting.

Well he did try to actually do some stuff.  Dumb stuff.  Tax cuts.  Building a damned wall.  Trade war with China using tariffs.  Inhumane immigration policy.

Trade war with China using tariffs.

Find me one, just ONE, genuine conservative or libertarian who defended that horseshit. Hell, I remember arguing with my fellow liberals back in the 80s about how conservatives actually had that one right -- tariffs are about the dumbest thing any government anywhere has ever done.

The modern Republican party is not conservative. It's nihilistic.

all negative space stuff. none of that is building coherent policy.

tax cuts mean we have less money to do things. those tax cuts were also sold as a bullshit middle class panacea when in real life, we (in the middlish class) got one year of tax cuts while the rich and corporations are still benefitting. negative space.

the wall. the last president we had with a coherent immigration policy was george w bush. and he got swatted because of it. but trump made it wrse (and i'm combining your second and fourth points here for brevity), and inhumane, because for him, the cruelty is the point. negative space. 

trade war with china - what exactly did we accomplish there? nothing. just feelings about communists. negative space.

please know i'm not arguing with you. i'm just trying to highlight my point that the man had no real positive policy overall. of course, when influenced by celebrities, he could do a nice thing for a guy. but aside from that kind of influence, he sought negative people who encouraged him to do negative, cruel things. and he delighted in the feeling that gave him. he's a truly terrible person. 

and back to my original point, defending terrible behavior by a terrible person is exhausting. so his supporters left the forum. hell, i had something similar with my father in law. when i had him cornered, and he got pissed, we had to meet up later and have a gentleman's agreement not to discuss politics. i've known the man two decades, and we've had plenty of disagreements that were amicable. but here comes trump, and suddenly we can't talk politics? it's because the man is indefensible. and his control over the republican party is also indefensible, as is the behavior of the members of the party.

negative space, man.
