Can’t bury my head as easily as you, I guess. You must stay vigilant when one side wants to burn the country down.

LOL, fat chance. Dude lives in aggy country and probably works with a bunch of far right whackadoos that mainline Tucker Carlson and Joe Rogan. 

i'll never understand how one can align themselves politically with texags and then look around and say 'yep, this is a-ok'.

The good news is: they're too fucking stupid to figure out how to view Tucker's new show/podcast?/Russian state media?

but for real, having grown up in east Texas surrounded by red hats and racists, I can see a pattern between people who continue to live that way into adult hood and others who have more perspective on things. I'm convinced it just boils down to intellect and being gullible. There is a reason the GOP platform is 'Keep America Stupid'.

Anastatis is like an aggy trying to distract how fucked up their school is by pointing to that one time UT students protested guns by waving dildos around.

Not the one cheering on the arming of nazis. It's ok buddy. History has a long run. Neocons don't understand that, favoring short term time horizons. To the detriment of American foreign policy.

Said in serious fashion by the guys that give standing ovations to nazis because they have pretty basic lack of awareness of history and context. 

Said by the guy using fat’s own logic, as I provided in his quotes. Must have escaped your notice.

Nothing more predictable than all the liberals turning into fucking neocons. 

And especially the ex republicans turned liberals. They never changed their neocon stripes. But they are yours nows, among the most vocal when they should be doing a good amount of shutting the fuck up and riding in the back seat.. But, no, just an extra helping of self congratulatory flagellation on their path to redemption.

wait wait...i had to actually google wtf this inane sidebar was about...

so one, what in the ever-loving fuck does the Canadian speaker's fuckup have to do with the American democratic party, and two, more importantly, wtf does this have to do with AOC embarrassing the shit out of American house republicans?

also i have no idea what Paxton has to do with anything here, i'm just grateful i no longer live in a state led almost exclusively by morons*, cretins and criminals.

She pretty much used his attorney’s defense, verbatim.
 

It was demonized last week, when it worked for Paxton, but is now a brilliant strategy, and she’s so smart for using it!!1!!

I’ll forever be on whatever the other side is from the people featured on libs of Tik Tok

Lenin had a description for that. Useful something. 

Republicans (and whatever faction both sides Ana claims) continue to embarrass this country and even more impressively, this forum. 

The part of the Ana bit that I like the most is not the “look at me, so much more thoughtful than you philistines” part - that’s just trite. It’s the part where he mocks a policy position, yet never offers a well thought out alternative path. It’s always just some version of “we shouldn’t do X, and you guys are suckers for thinking we should.” Ok…so what SHOULD we do? “I already told you - not X.”
It’s cowardly, and a regular admission that he indeed has no actual counter-thoughts.
And yeah…it IS funny how every time there’s the opportunity to go after people who agree with and act upon the proposition “fascist authoritarianism sucks,” Ana comes running to bash them with a response time that would be the envy of every fire department in the country.

Denouncing communism gets under uou skin, Ana? Perhaps you are against the promotion of democracy abroad? 
 

Other than those two things, I reject non-defensive military force, and generally suppprt peaceful radicals.

Now that I have addressed how well you have described my political self. Let’s do you.

Narcissist

  • A grandiose sense of self-importanc

  • A belief that he or she is special and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people or institutions

  • A need for excessive admiratioN

  • Interpersonally exploitive behavior

  • A lack of empathy

  • Envy of others or a belief that others are envious of him or her

  • A demonstration of arrogant and haughty behaviors or attitudes

You should feel even worse than you do about your former political affiliations. And your inner neocon tendencies that you have been unable to shake. They are deep rooted, I understand. But don't project your lack of ability to conceive of a rational foreign policy on me. Keep supporting the endless neocon war game, shape shifting between D and R affiliations. Because we all really know that there is no difference when it comes to our foreign policy posture.

Please, oh wise one, tell us where we went estray and guide us with your immense foreign policy knowledge as to how we can atone for our neocon war mongering wrong-doings by *checks notes* supporting a country from invasion by their authoritarian neighbor. Please bless us with your wisdom!

Correct.  It is, apparently, a pretty solid defense.

If one is using the historically accepted definition of "socialist", then yes.

I haven't read on this topic in some time, but I thought the defining characteristic of socialism is public or social control of the means of production.  There are many types of socialism and different views on how socialism should be implemented, but any political or economic system that has public control over the means of production as a feature is a type of socialism and any advocate for such a system is a socialist.  Democratic socialists advocate for social control of the means of production, which is why they identify as socialists.  Curious what definitions you go by or if terminology has changed.

He won’t, it would require him to take a position.

Speaking of positions yall are on the side of arch neocons like McCain and Lindsey and nuland. Hope y’all feel warm inside.

Man, I think people would have a modicum of respect for you if you would simply state your opinion on a topic instead of just flinging shit. Outside of "bombing brown people is bad" (which i obviously agree with) wtf would you do about anything?

You're a worthless "both sides" buffoon.
