You know I am not really your father.





when i was little i loved watching john stossel on 20/20.. he was all like, "give me a break" and i was like 'hell yeah'. i've totally forgotten what the segments were about but just liked how he said it. didn't find out until like 10 years later that he was just this huge libertarian that hated the government giving help to people because once "you give it to them you can't take it back" and apparently that's what segments he was running the whole time on 20/20

anyways my point is, even though i watched him in my childhood. i still turned out to not want to actively harm other people just because the government was using tax money to help them. so that guy posting a stossel vod non-ironically: seek help. you are not as nice as you think you are.

When I was a child I also thought Mike Savage and John Stossel made a lot of sense. That’s because I was a child and it’s a child’s brain, so imagine an adult who likes them.

I was a teen watching Dateline and 20/20 because they had interesting stories and news and Stossel's persona being a straight talkering no nonsense iconoclast was fun to an angsty smartass kid.

But like Sauce I eventually figured out he was a turd and wonder what the gently caress I was watching him spew out every week.

Somehow (thanks to church or media or family or just plain stupid) I was a 9th grader that thought abortion should be very restricted. My H-Bio teacher assigned an EC question on a quiz about abortion access and I wrote out something about should be rare, shouldn't be a replacement for BC blah blah.

He responded with something like "What about exceptions for assault, health of the mother, etc?"
Literally read it and went 'oh gently caress I'm loving wrong holy poo poo'
Dude still have me credit for answering the freebie but I honestly looked at it like 'i don't deserve these 5 points I'm a loving moron '

I think I was the same way. I was a stupid edgelord and thought it would be good that women should be punished for being whores, or something like that. Luckily I realized how insanely wrong I was at some point once I started dating in high school. Though I do *wish* it was rare and I do think it shouldn't be a replacement for BC, obviously, but that's not really the point. No one "enjoys" abortion or wants there to be abortions at all, but that's idealistic and not what the issue is about.

I accidentally won a state wide essay contest for Right To Life when I was a freshman in high school because my theology teacher (nun) submitted a homework assignment about abortion to this secular contest on my behalf. I got $500 which I spent on a dream cast and games. That was cool. The actual event was loving weird. Ben Stein was there. Those haven't been my views in years/decades and I don't know if I actually had opinions back then but I feel strange/sorta kinda guilty when I think about it.

Anyone who uses the term “job creator” without any hint of irony has to be assumed brain dead and there’s no hope for them.

Also sorry but I can’t get my dick hard to vote for Dems anymore. They have failed miserably to enact meaningful reform to get us anywhere close to every other first world country. The last time they tried with healthcare, they literally let the industry write the bill even though they had a supermajority and could have passed anything they wanted to up to including single payer. Their student loan plan basically puts the owed debt back at current levels in two years, and even that might get yeeted right out in court. Should have taken out 5 or 6 figures in PPP loans, kids. Those are free.

They lost the presidency to a fuckin C-list game show host because they stubbornly refused to have anyone but their hand selected turd woman on the throne.

Yet after all that , it’s the same as it’s always been: “No we aren’t going to do anything to tangibly, materially improve your life or economic mobility in any real way, nothing to reverse almost a half century of watering down the middle and working classes, but we will say some nice things about oppressed groups for you (without any accompanying actions) and besides, tHe SuPrEmE cOuRt aNd rOe iS aT sTaKe!

Then they lost that because nobody in the party had enough guts to give RBG the LBJ treatment and voluntell her old frail rear end to retire PDQ. And yet, this is going to once again be tHe MoST iMpOrTaNt eLeCtIoN iN oUr LiFeTiMe because, uh, reasons.

As long as both parties have the same goddamned donor base, it’s grim.

I know most people here are massively anti-Republican, but that is the one thing about Republicans... they don't do massive spending like this, or vote for bills that spend too much, etc.

So, you can vote Republican in 2024. No way in hell Trump will be nominated. So he'll run independently. MAGA dumbasses who would vote Republican will vote for Trump, which will take votes away from the Republican candidate.

The above is the main reason I will be voting republican in 2024. Biden will likely run again, and I can't vote for an administration that approved what you see in the graph above, despite being warned be a multitude of economists. I can't deal with the inflation, as well as the Federal Reserve responding to it by constantly raising interest rates, driving down the value of stocks in people's 401K and other portfolios. If that makes me a piece of poo poo, then so be it.

I'm not sure whether this post is a joke or you are.

Abortion, birth control, sex ed based in fact and not “my own genitals terrify me” are cool and good things.

it's a medical procedure, don't make it out to be something it isn't. demonizing it like this is what led to Roe v Wade being overturned.

No one has been hard about voting for Dems since Obama. Since 2016 it's always been the "welp, at least its not the genocide / blood libel / fascism" party. And if that's not a good enough reason, at least everyone knows who they're talking to.

Yeah it sucks and you'll be busy as hell but community College can be pretty cheap, and you can always try to get a degree that transfers to 4 year.
