Political Debate
Not being from the US, the whole thing looks to me like a hideous circus. I don't think I could support either party, but I'd vote for the one that seems to have a glimmer of humanity, I guess. Our own system is also fucked though How do you feel about the job they're doing? I'm curious

Political Debate
My family has always been Democrat..I vote for the person,not the political party. I see good and evil in all political parties. And with that being said.l can say I don't like Trump,Pence or the whole administration. I just deal with it.

Political Debate
Independent, probably pessimistically so. I don't think anyone of them, right or left, give shit about anyone or anything besides whats in their pockets. The only place I think votes really matter are maybe in small town/school board elections, because those people have to live and deal with the community they impact. But I'm also a conspiracy theorist and think most elections are set up anyway.

Political Debate
Is breaking international law bad shit? Yes. Not justifying that. Is it debateable context that venezuelans were under a dictator? I don't want to argue either, Greg. I just can't feel much sympathy to those dems decrying the venezuelans being happy maduro is gone because of who got rid of him and how.

You can't fix stupid, so I stopped arguing with you. People who think doing bad shit is excused by debatable context are beyond reason.

Political Debate
I can't be on the side of those attacking venezuelans for being happy their people aren't under a dictatorship because their idea of a 'dictatorship' based on lived experiences is different from their idea of a 'dictatorship' based on online culture, dude..

Political Debate
Come from a right wing family, consider myself a centralist. I vote based on the best candidate and political values at the time so wouldn't say I align with one or the other necessarily. Seems like the last decade has been a vote for the lesser of the two evils situation with a pretty clear "bad" option in my eyes. If I lived in the US it would be a "anything but Trump" situation obviously lol. In the UK our last Conservative PM was a transphobic elitist moron so I voted tactically to get him out (which worked thankfully). We have another right wing moron, Nigel Farage who is running a far right party that has gotten way too much traction for comfort the last few years, so will be an anything but him situation again when the time comes. Might have to put that into action sooner rather than later, they're flirting with the idea of an earlier general election. Doubt it will go ahead though.

Have You Guys Ever Actually... Read The Bible?
This might be the funniest unintentional TLDR I've ever seen ๐ I've read a chunk of the bible, could never claim to have read the whole of it. There is as much in there that you can use to debunk the logic of Christianity as there is that supports the idea of it. The Old Testament is jokes at how silly a lot of it is. There's obviously different levels of religious zealot and how much they "follow" the teachings of the bible. I think as society has evolved, so has the concept of right and wrong, and the bible is no longer the moral compass that some people saw it as over a millennium ago.

Have You Guys Ever Actually... Read The Bible?
Reading so far, old testament god is terrifying. I think based on this alone, if I believed in this God, I'd hate and fear him like you would a domineering, hypocritical father full of blind rage and unfair rules. It feels incongruent to have gone to catholic school and remember how my teachers and priests described god. This kindly grandfather figure.

The Bible sells a God who is supposedly all loving, all knowing, and perfectly just, then immediately undercuts that claim by depicting him committing or ordering genocide, killing children, hardening peopleโs hearts so he can punish them, regretting his own actions, and changing his mind like an insecure ruler with impulse control problems. It bans killing but makes endless exceptions when God wants blood, preaches free will while predestining outcomes, demands faith without evidence while repeatedly proving he could provide evidence at any time, and promises answered prayers that conveniently fail often enough to be rebranded as โmystery.โ It condemns pride but demands total submission, claims moral absolutes while endorsing slavery, misogyny, and collective punishment, and insists finite human mistakes justify infinite punishment. Forgiveness supposedly requires blood sacrifice, culminating in God sacrificing himself to himself to fix rules he made, all while blaming humanity for a flaw they inherited before they could even understand right and wrong. The result is not divine consistency but a patchwork of control, fear, and post hoc justification that only works if you stop asking basic questions.- Have You Guys Ever Actually... Read The Bible?
I'm reading it now. Second attempt -- my first was as a teenager flirting with Paganism. I attended a course on the meaning of life, and everyone else there was furiously church going. After being judged and rebuked and sentenced to hell for eternity a few times for asking what I thought were fairly reasonable questions, I started to realise people using the Bible to castigate me didn't seem to have read it. They couldn't give me specifics. They couldn't give me the why. I read most of it out of curiosity. To see for myself. It bored me, quite honestly. I was approaching it from the "fuck god and fuck you people" perspective, too -- I'm not sure what I expected, really I'm not agnostic and not religious but I'm curious about what holy books say. So now at 34 I'm going to read them all- Stranger Things Ending...

You consistently have the least intelligent things to say. Refer to my earlier post.- Political Debate
Well right now I'm kinda on the side of those who helped topple Maduro even if they just installed one of his minions in his place instead of holding fresh elections... Which sorta crosses out the dems for me.- Political Debate
I've always voted Democrat,my family were Democrat. Everyone in my family voted for JFK.. I haven't voted for a long time..- Have You Guys Ever Actually... Read The Bible?
