Hi arizona1, which all goes back to people on both the right and the left believing things that arent true.
None of the 3 things I listed that progressives believe are true. None of the links you posted mean anything.
We've spend the last 40 years and trillions of dollars elevating and subsidizing african americans. That's not something a systemically racist society does. So I'm correct, and my evidence is undeniable.
Women are now 55% of all college graduates. They make 98% of what men make for the same job and same job performance - but when you factor in days off, health benefits, and so on, you can make the case they make more than their male counterparts. So I'm correct, and my evidence is undeniable.
As for global warming, the problem progressives have comprehending is that even if the US cut the CO2 by half from current levels (even they Biden administration isnt proposing something that extreme), it doesnt offset the horrific amount of CO2 China is producing. The answer isnt to storm US government buildings, the answer is to make China shut down their coal burning plants immediately. Over the past 15 years, the US has reduced its CO2 output back to 1995 levels. So I'm correct, and my evidence is undeniable.
In conclusion, the Democratic Party, although well intentioned I'm sure, stands for doing things that dont make any sense either.
China emits more greenhouse gases than all industrialized nations in the world combined, but so far has promised only to peak those emissions by 2030 and to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/china-must-adopt-ambitious-climate-change-goals-ahead-of-glasgow-summit-un-secretary-general-says-200347588.html
Like I said, they stormed the wrong building. If you want to protest global warming inaction - the Chinese Embassy is the place to make your grievances known.
Hi Arizona1,
I never heard Chris articulate what today's mainstream republican party stands for or what policy proposals for everyday Americans they've put forward.
Actually, you have. I've said they're driven by over the top conspiracy theories that at this point are anti-American. The Republican Party stopped standing for anything when the Bush administration fabricated reasons to invade Iraq. And just recently, I said this:
https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=165337584
The problem is the mainstream Democrats have lost their way too. Their desire to have a 2nd $3T infrastructure bill makes that plain to see. They insist that the US is "systemically racist" which isnt true. They claim men earn more than women for the same job and job performance, which isnt true. They believe that global warming is the biggest problem facing America today when in fact its China's continued increasing use of coal for the past 15 years that has caused the record CO2 levels on the planet. And then there's illegal immigration ....
In combination, these beliefs accelerate the genocide of large portions rural America. Their way of life is doomed anyways, but the Democratic Party currently stands in favor of making it happen a lot quicker.
Hi Ayock, I guess you didnt understand this phrase at the start of my post:
Like all radicals on both the right and left ....
Although its 100% clear.
Which confirms the rest of the sentence which says you only see what you want to see. Even when you know what you believe is incorrect. Like labelling me as a Fox News watching conservative.
Posting examples of the foolishness that has gripped the far right doesn't make the foolishness of the the far left any less foolish. This is not a concept that should be difficult to understand, But apparently for some people, it is.
Like all radicals on both the right and left, you only accept the facts you want to believe and dismiss the rest. if it makes you feel better, you are not alone. I have friends and family who suffer from the same mental illness. I blame politicians and the media for what they've done to so many americans.
This has been your pattern for some time. I look at the bigger picture. In past times, this would be considered a gift. in today's brainwashed world, its more of a curse.
hi ayock, if they're on their way to storm the Embassy of China, then I support them.
John Eastman now says Pence did not have the power or authority to override the Electoral College.
https://news.yahoo.com/john-eastman-says-strategy-outlined-184700246.html
So as those of us of sound mind already knew, the attack on the US Capitol was a waste of time.
Hi arizona1, I'm not equating the storming of the Dept of Interior with the attack on the Capitol Building. But the climate change activists stormed the building, refused to leave, and some were arrested.
As for the Jan 6th attackers. when was the last time you recall HUNDREDS of protesters have been hunted down by the FBI and arrested ? Dont pretend the Jan 6th Capitol Building attackers got away with what they did.
By the way, the climate change activists stormed the wrong building. If they wanted to address climate change, they should have stormed the Embassy of China, since China is responsible for 28% of the world's CO2 output and actually INCREASING their coal burning powerplants while the US has been DECREASING its CO2 output for the past 15 years.
So dont give me this "save the planet" stuff.
Just like attacking the police and a Federal courthouse in Portland has nothing to do with fixing social injustice.
Anyways, congratulations on your support for your destructive efforts in Portland, the harm and death you've caused to African Americans, and storming the wrong building in DC. Well done !
Hi arizona1, you must get news from someplace else,
https://news.yahoo.com/protesters-arrested-storming-interior-department-032700735.html
As for the unfortunate person in the photo ... this is what happens when someone resists arrest.
And congratulation on your support in all of this. Well done !
Hi Ayock, the difference between DC and Portland is that while homicides are up in both cities, overall crime other than motor vehicle theft apparently, is down in DC and way up in Portland.
https://leftrightiq.com/2021/10/13/portlands-crime-rates-are-way-up/
https://www.washingtonian.com/2021/07/19/whats-really-happening-with-crime-rates-in-dc-right-now/
So while mostly white Portland may not be facing armageddon, the social justice movement has definitely left its mark. It hurt more black lives than it's helped, that's for sure. Well done !
Oh and I guess congratulations are in order for the successful storming of the Dept. of Interior building in DC ?

Hi Arizona1, I have no idea what point you're trying to make ...
It's pretty obvious, but let me help:
Your claim that all the rioting in Portland and Seattle for 4 months last year was caused by right wing agitators is your version of "the election was stolen".
It's also interesting that this exchange started by you incorrectly criticizing me for posting something that you agree with.
Hi Ayock, are you questioning the many news articles about the record number of shootings and murders in Portland ?
Hi Arizona1, I didn't realize those suburban moms were protecting right wing agitators.
As I said before, well done !
https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/20/us/wall-of-moms-portland-protest-trnd/index.html
Hi arizona1, I forgot to congratulate you on your efforts to break Portland's previous shootings and murders record. Well done !
But not the people who regurgitate the insane lies they read on Q websites.
Probably because until late last year, "progressive" misinformation dominated the discussion here. And I definitely went after the outrageous Comet Ping-Pong child slavery and Jade Helm nonsense here 5 years ago. But I've been critical of the "Q" propaganda for a year now, which went into high gear when Trump lost the election.
https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=115905504&txt2find=jade
Hi Arizona1, I've been saying it for a few months now. And I've made my opinion clear about Trump for some time now ... like years.
So I'm not sure where you've been for past year.
Dear Chicago Police Dept. - Speaking of irony ....

Hi bbotcs, it's definitely worth considering. I'm a big believer that the top 5% aren't eligible for the long term capital gains tax ... for starters.
If you want to know what's really wrong with the USA, it's not "systemic racism", it's not "election fraud", it's this: The top 1% own more stock than the bottom 90%.

GM Al, we've gone over this soooo manyyyy times .....
Vaccinations are required to attend elementary school. https://vaccines.procon.org/state-by-state-vaccinations-required-for-public-school-kindergarten/
Meningitis vaccination is required to attend college. No one has every associated the requirement to be vaccinated to attend school as fascism.
The Trump Administration performed a miracle getting a proven vaccine available in just 11 months. To spread misinformation about the vaccine and its effectiveness is anti-Trump. Its also anti-American, given that Covid-19 has claimed far more American lives than WW II did.
To think Pence had the power to single-handedly overturn the electoral college is anti-constitutional and therefore anti-American.
I choose to be a loyal American. Its sad for me to see people who used to be loyal americans choose otherwise.
GM Al, the vaccine is no longer experimental. hundreds of millions of doses have been administered and their efficacy has been proven.
As for giving up rights when you join the armed services - you are correct. You are expected to follow orders and not be insubordinate. So mandating one more vaccine isn't fascist.
GM Al, prior to covid, the military required its members to have 9 vaccinations. Do you consider these to be fascism as well ?
https://news.yahoo.com/17-vaccines-mandated-us-military-165900126.html
GM Al, I think of it more like McCarthy-ism. Which given that social justice liberals are the perpetrators, is ironic.
By the way, dont feel too badly for Gruden ...

Hi arizona1, Republicans will not be voting in ‘22 or ‘24.
The problem with that is - if they are brainwashed into believing their polling place votes don't count (despite the fact that 47 million of their votes were counted just fine), they will vote "January 6th"-style.
They should get it over with and form a new country and elect Trump El Presidente for Life.
Hi Al, feel free to think Arizona and Georgia were very close races. But the others were not and Trump lost.
Soooooo in 2000 there was an election .... and it came down to not just counting ballots, but interpreting them. Bush was declared the winner although he may not have been. The Democratic Party didnt spend another year whining about it.
It's disgraceful and unamerican to keep questioning the 2020 election a year later when it wasnt even close.
Hi Al, what Arizona1 is pointing out is that the only candidate that thinks they were screwed is Trump. I mean if you're gonna rig an election, rig votes against the other candidates you'd like to see lose.
But no one else's election was "stolen" then it's obvious that Trump's wasnt either.
CNN Collapsing, Appears To On The Verge Of Bankruptcy
That's right Al. So if there were no "The election was stolen" narrative and no "the vaccine doesn't work" narrative to talk about, CNN would go under for sure.
Just one more reason to stop believing the election was stolen (it wasn't) and the vaccine doesn't work (it does).
You need to spread the word on this !!
Hi Al, all the misinformation stuff being said - by both supporters of the left and the right is proof to me there is an organized concerted effort to divide our country. And divide is usually followed by "conquered".
The big question for me is - when the US implodes - will Canada be any safer ?
Hi Ayock, Al is just sharing the information. He didnt go to the source like I did to see whether or not the story was fake news.
A good general rule is - if the claim contradicts so much other data - then it shouldnt be believed.
There are also several progressive causes this rule applies to, which I've pointed out here as well.
Hi Al, all I'm gonna say is the person who wrote the article you posted is a math challenged moron. And a malicious one at that.
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-wales-58680204
The mental retard who wrote this is falsely assuming there are equal numbers of vaccinated and unvaccinated people. But there aren't, there are NINE TIMES more vaccinated people there than there are unvaccinated people. And if you read the BBC article, there arent just vaccinated and unvaccinated people. A full 22% of the people had an unknown vaccination status.
So if you do some basic math, the unvaccinated people in Wales were EIGHT TIMES more likely to test positive than vaccinated people.
I hope this clears things up. It's better to be vaccinated than unvaccinated.
No question there's a lot of craziness to go around.
I wonder if this was what early 1930s Germany was like ...
GM Al, demand an audit and then refuse to believe the results when they're not what's wanted.
It doesn't get more anti-American than that.
More than 95% of the 443 people under age 60 who have died from COVID-19 in Kentucky since early July were unvaccinated, Gov. Andy Beshear said Thursday.

Arizona Republicans testified before Congress that Biden won 'free, fair, and accurate elections' in Maricopa County
https://www.yahoo.com/news/arizona-republicans-testified-congress-biden-050551995.html
In conclusion, the two main right wing narratives - the vaccine doesn't work and the ELE tion was stolen - are now officially declared false.
Hi arizona1, the real question is - who trolls twitter for these stories ?
Hi bbotcs, here's an article about the study you saw.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/pfizers-covid-19-immunity-protection-032404881.html
The good news is that - according to this study - Pfizer still keeps you out of the hospital.
Thanks for posting these Bee satire articles Al.
I hope you'll be able to sleep better soon.
Hi Al, lol yes it's an ongoing story here.
Hi bbotcs, Obviously, they were aware of what was happening in China. If the Chinese-Americans knew, so did the U.S. Government. IMO, the Trump Administration fell down on the job.
As I recall, just banning flights from China on Feb 2nd caused the MSM to accuse Trump of being racist.
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/trump-ban-travel-china-pandemic/
By then, people were coming back from cruises infected, from Europe infected, and other parts of Asia infected. It was already too late.
By that didnt stop the media from immediately blaming Trump for the pandemic in the US, despite the fact that every non-island country was also experiencing it. IMO this pollicization cause the MAGA world to counter with the misguided "dont wear masks" movement followed by the anti-vax movement.
