Political rants

Another thing that I've noticed many conservatives make under Biden. Is the same mistake that many liberals made under Trump. Remember Trump derangement syndrome? Everything that Trump did was bad. Now we have Biden derangement syndrome. Everything that Biden does is bad. Suffice it to say. Not everything that a US president does is bad. For example, Trump was absolutely right about China stealing intellectual property. He's solution to tariff China didn't work out. But the dude gave a swing at it. Trump was also absolutely right about the Space Force. The physics and dynamics of space are completely different than those on earth. A new branch of the military is necessary for a brand new military frontier. On Biden's part. Biden's decision to pull out of Afghanistan was the right choice. But make no mistake. The pullout strategy was an absolute disaster. But remember this. Daddy Trump did state that the war in Iraq was a mistake and Trump also wanted to pull out of Afghanistan. If Trump would have remained president. He probably would have also pulled out of Afghanistan. You know what I see? I think both sides of the extreme left and extreme right are completely nutty. Everything that Trump does is bad. Everything that Biden does is bad. There is no nuance opinion. Just dogmatic ill informed opinions.

No trump had a set plan to pull out of Afghanistan, and biden didnt abide by that plan he instead extended having troops stay an extra couple of months and then pulled put terribly. For one he didnt even forewarn the country he pulled out of and instead over night made troops leave. We know for a fact he did this because he then tried to rectify the issue by sending the troops back to pull Americans stranded there after the country got captured within days. Biden hasnt done everything wrong same way trump hasnt done everything right. There alot that trump got wrong. Also inflation is the product of the rising price of goods and this can be attributed to policies pushed by the president so yes the president plays a hand in that. For example if all pur food came from canada because we decided to stop making our own food and Canada decided they wanted to raise the price because the services and fiat we have to offer isnt worth it and consumers are willing to pay more for a product then ding ding ding inflation. Backed by an actual google search :^) as our buying power drops because of the policies of the current administration. The president does have a print momey button because if the federal reserve can just print money like theybhave been for these dumb ass bills biden has been passing. Let me remind you TRILLION dollar bills being passed. How is that not the president's fault?

There was no good way to pull out of Afghanistan. That country is doomed. If it was Trump or Biden or Obama or Bush or the next one it would have been bad. I'm just glad we got out of there. I'd prefer if India took it over but that probably won't happen. China probably will for the resources. They will be a lot less nice than the US. Mass concentration camps no doubt.

No Afghanistan was doomed and logistically moving alot of our equipment would have cost more money than it was worth. But its as simple as just destroying the equipment, leaving a few behind for the military there, or like idk something. There really was no plan besides leave. There was no securing a route to allow americans to escape. Because some of them for sure got trapped there amd we also lost some american soldiers getting the people out. We also had pther countries help save our Americans MORE than our own Americans did. Its embarrassing and other countries can see that. Its bad enough we lost the war.

That was all hype, man. Modt of that equipment will not do any good. Most of it was scraped already. Trump was blowing smoke like he always does. Don't know about Americans still left there will look into it. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/08/31/no-taliban-did-not-seize-83-billion-us-weapons/

I feel like I lose brain cells everytime I peek into political rants. Political debate is not like what it used to be. When you start losing you throw out the insult cards left and right. What's the point in political rants when both sides are going to keep an opinion that is totally different?

@actman1 I mean politics threads on websites usually suck but the truth of the matter is political debate kinda has always been this way, it's just the political debate that people fantasize of was never done in this sort of matter: the whole 'WE WILL COME TO A RATIONAL THOUGHT WITH OUR WORDS' type of debate was historically done in coffee houses in a community of people who actually want to come together for a truth instead of just, ya know, arguing over nothing. Social media on the other hand is nothing like that and is more akin to just standing on a soapbox and screaming as loudly as you can which is a form of debate sure but it's not one where you come to any rational conclusion as much as it's all about shutting the other side down entirely.

There have been some times on social media where you and the other person agree on some issues. At the end of the day on some issues you have to agree to disagree. You're not gonna change the persons opinion. From my experience when it comes to political rants/debates the best way is to let life speaks for itself. When it comes to the US government, it isn't gonna solve your problems. With other government systems besides the US same thing. When it comes to presidents compare the cost of food items, living expenses and gas prices to previous presidents or the next one. Look at your paystubs, how much taxes were being taken out? Was it more or less than the previous administrations? When a crisis pops up who is cool headed? When a war breaks out who is shown to be the reliable leader? When it comes to voting, both parties suck. Doesn't mean you don't vote, that's stupid. At the end of the day you have to vote based on your own personal values and beliefs. Don't let the news dictate who you need to vote for. Do your own research. May the best man win, but if your side doesn't win don't get mad. Watch how the winner leads, decide at the end of his term if he was worth it or not. That's my two cents. ALSO a reminder proof read your debate paragraphs before you press post. If your grammar is all over the place then you won't be respected that much and the person will have a negative view of you as an ignorant baboon.

Unlike other political debates i feel this one for the most part gets heated but alot of us still see eye to eye. While i dont agree with lamby's talking points i feel she and i share similar values. All parties more or less share similar values they all want their country to be its best. Some are extremists snd simply only want to see destruction for their own benefit. But you know, i think this political debate thread is unique cuz yeah we name call but for the most part the ones frequenting this thread dont actually hate each other. Its also all the mods who are talking here lmfaooo occasionally we also get the random person who gets so triggered they leave a review of the site on google calling everyone bigots. But thats few and far between.
