@khird Cant even make this stuff up :) lawl
Then complain to the OP not me, they are the ones asserting the GOP is doing this or that.
The FBI are the "Federal Police", so not really a leap. That said , there is no doubt the left focused more on local police.
Yup there is that too, though it haw never been approved in that fashion.
@TruthSandwich The troll is asking me if I want to troll? I dunno, I dont care, dont ask me again, I prefer to deal with mature adults not people having a tantrum they like to make up because someone disagrees with them. It also isnt the behavior we encourage here on QOTO, so lets not continue it.
Oh im sure you think so.. thats just your troll coming to light when anything disagrees with you... Its only bad and the extreme nonsense true when its not your side... I get it.
@TruthSandwich You say that a lot about things you seem to lack basic knowledge on... but in this case you are certainly correct.
> If your talking leftist is anti capitalist democratic socialist etc
Liberal is say Biden to most of what the Democratic Party purports.
Yea no one iws out there defining the left as only the tippuy tippy of the alt-left... No more so than anyone in their right mind would try to define the right as just the alt-right.
yes and liberal (in the modern sense of the word) is one of the properties of the left... ergo, yes the dnc is left, they just dont represent the whole left.
You could have just said "agreed" .. yes thats what I was saying
@DemocritusDiscoBall @SrRochardBunson @TruthSandwich @Sleestak
Agreed, except for the fact tht the DNC is left, but its closer to center-left than the whole of leftists... All democrats are left, not all left are democrats.
Yes there are two sides... the courts want to make it so politicians in congress can override the supreme court (which is sorta how it works int he USA).. oetherw want to make sure the supreme court get final say...
Both are "authoritative" because no matter what you pick one side gets final say and authority... int he USA we have a consitituion so the final authority comes int he form of amendments to the consitution, which means congress, but it also means with 2/3 support of congress.
Just a reminder 36% of the USA population supported defund the police at its height when it was still a largely left wing notion.
I cant find a break down based on party but its safe to bet the majority of those are left wing. So at a minimum it was a near-majority support from the left on that notion. If a majority or near marjority is "far-left" that is concerning.
It all boils down to them having no constitution. So everyo e was pissed off cause they didnt know who shoukd get the final say, their congress or their supreme court.
Yay, you win the award for stupidest reason to block.
Yay, you win the award for stupidest reason to block.
