Political stance doesn't make or break the character of a man, but inability to respond to reason or empathize with other human beings does.

I'm not embarrassed or affected by anybody's opinions of me on here, but I hope that you are at least able to empathize with the viewpoint of another human being and understand that many of you and I's viewpoints overlap in wanting better for ourselves, our friends, our family, and our country as a whole.

There's good ideas on both sides, and balance creates harmony.

One other note, I don't fault Trump for not pointing out or admitting his mistakes, when the legacy media gives you 96% negative coverage why even bother. They'd just take it run with it.

Also, when the hell did PeePaw ever admit any mistakes? He said the border was secure and the biggest threat to this country was the far right. I don't recall Chicago Jesus admitting any mistakes either.

He's not progressive enough. He's an establishment democrat who fails to understand the gravity of the political situation that we're currently in, and like many establishment democrats, continues to move further right on the political spectrum in hopes of appeasing a semi-fictional group of "moderates" while a large chunk of left-wing progressives sit out the election because they don't feel represented by democrats, thus stalling any political progress that could be made by liberals.

How's that? I very much don't like Shumer. I'm not sure what else I can say..

To progressives sitting out elections.

If more did that, this country would thrive.

Their ideology, and their ideas, are anathema to success.

No, there are exactly zero good ideas on the left. Liberalism, even when done by "Republicans", is bad and they should feel bad.

I currently only have a brief amount of time to access the internet…..so I am not being lazy.

I have seen more than a few leftist on TV, being very smug about the "Maryland Man" not having a tattoo that says MS-13. Their claim is the photo is doctored.

Does anyone have the original photo vs so called doctored picture to post?

I have seen gang members I grow up, try to cover up
by blending different art work over the top of the gang tattoo? May this why they say the photo is altered?

---

The original photo with the photoshop captions has been posted on this thread.

This guy didn't try to cover it up. Leftists are trying to cover it up for him. None of this has anything to do with Donald Trump. We are in a crisis of integrity in this country.

You're trying to argue about this guy's tattoo when he 1) is an illegal criminal alien, 2) who his gf/wife testified was abusing her, and 3) was caught on a body cam trafficking several illegal aliens across state lines in a traffic stop. And you want to lecture people on empathy? GTFOH

I think balance is good. It's the natural way. But the ONLY time we hear about balance is when the left is out of power! Always. Every single time. But when they are in power, we get "our patience is wearing thin" and threat s of f-15s. I'd love balance, but they tried to destroy our nation. Those days are way the **** over, so take it elsewhere.

To me the bottom line is that that POS senator that went and had margaritas with him would've been screaming from the rooftops that he did not have these gang tattoos on his hands after the fact, but he did not. It's very clear that he does have these tattoos and the left does not want to admit it.

SRCag18 said:

---

You demand better of everyone except for Donald Trump.

Dude, the interviewer gave him three opportunities to fix the error he made and he COULD NOT admit to it. The leader of our country could not admit the smallest of errors and continued on trying to defend himself.

He's done this time and time again. He never admits fault. In fact, I'd challenge you to find a time where he's done so, even once, in either term.

That doesn't concern you? That level of incompetence doesn't demand addressing? C'mon man, it's okay not to be okay with every single thing Trump does. My goodness.

I might vote differently than you but I sure as hell take issue with things within my party and call them out when they're wrong. That's the only way we improve. Surely you know that?

---

I thought surely you were trolling here… especially with the "c'mon man" line… but alas, you were serious. I bet you were super concerned during Biden's debacle of a term if you're mostly concerned with owning mistakes and being "competent" from POTUS.

Schumer not "progressive" enough… huh? Schumer and his ilk are so lost in the progressive weeds that they drove our country into a ditch and fumbled away an election cycle. If you want your side to ever win again, you might want to check the pulse of Americans in regards to their appetite for MORE progressive identity politics.

Yes, there are good ideas on both sides. The problem we have with politics today is that people that lean heavy to one side or the other firmly believe the other side has no redeemable qualities.

And we wonder why we are so divided and nothing gets done. Our political system only works if there is compromise.

Just a few ideas on the left that I like that should be no-brainers for anyone that isn't a complete piece of ****…

One, affordable healthcare should be a right to every American. Nobody should be declined care and nobody should face bankruptcy to treat life-threatening health problems.

Two, every single American should have a right to food.

Three, every single American should have a right to housing.

These a basic human rights that ALL OF US should agree on. Bad breaks in life shouldn't be a death sentence or put you on the street.

There are no redeeming qualities about marxists.

You don't have a right to others' labor.

Everything you listed is a touchy feely bunch of bull**** . And I've had to live out of my car within the last couple of years myself. Unlike most everyone posting here.

You kept saying "should have a right to" when you really mean "should be entitled to". Perhaps that's merely a subtle wording difference or semantics to you, but it shouldn't be.

People have a right to equal opportunity. They do not have a right to equal outcomes.

Who said they deserve equal outcomes? I damn sure didn't. I'm asking for the bare minimum basic human necessities to be met in order to survive on this planet. We spend countless billions of dollars of taxpayer money to blow up third world countries but it's somehow appalling to some of you that I'd rather that money be put towards American citizens that are struggling in today's world.

You say it's not the governments job. Ok, then who is going to fix the problem? Charities and churches can only do so much and are woefully underfunded and understaffed.

And let's be honest, nobody has equal opportunity. That's a false narrative people like to throw around.

You telling me a kid at Wilmer-Hutchins HS is receiving the same opportunity and education as a kid at Allen HS? They damn sure aren't being fed the same nutrients kids in wealthy suburbs are getting in order to develop their brains.

To say everyone has equal opportunity means that they would also have equal circumstances. We know that isn't the case.

Most of how we turn out to be as adults is based on the circumstances we were provided with as children, and that's an undeniable fact.

So yeah, if you don't have the same circumstances then how can you possibly say that everyone has equal opportunity?

You're a doctor so I know you're aware of social determinants of health. By merely growing up and living in one part of Dallas versus another, a person's life expectancy can vary by over a decade in some places. Children don't get to choose the circumstances they are born into and those born into bad ones are ill equipped to pull themselves out of those situations.

I'll deny it.

In my peer group from elementary school onwards we are represented by doctors, engineers, entrepreneur millionaires, lawyers, teachers, principals, district superintendents, etc. Similar circumstances also produced a murderer still serving a life sentence, multiple felons in & out of prison, hourly workers who died from alcohol abuse, low level government workers, several whose circumstances are unknown, etc. My classmate's older brother has university buildings named after him. The guy that walked at graduation in front of me was announced as a National Merit Scholar at the ceremony (nobody knew) and was one of the hourly guys that drank himself to death. Our valedictorian does something with real estate. Our salutatorian developed schizophrenia and was rumored to be homeless.

My ex-wife's family came to America as refugees owning literally nothing. They began their American experience packed into a single wide owned by the restaurant that everybody washed dishes to pay rent. A faith based charity found the adults a better paying job at a meat packing plant which much hard work & saving eventually led to a home purchase with the worst schools to be found in that district. They all had to learn English. But despite their circumstances they have thrived. Nobody stayed at the meat packing plant longer than 7-8 years and all the adults became successful entrepreneurs or found meaningful employment elsewhere. Their family and extended family is also represented by doctors, engineers, pharmacists, etc. I witnessed a sibling shamed for aspiring to be a mere nurse. One of their classmates was a successful professional athlete whose name you would probably recognize.


tldr - people can and do rise above their circumstances. You can evaluate any population you want and discover that half of them will be below average in whatever assessment you choose.

The gist of your post(s) is/are straight up Marxism 101. I'm not sure if you recognize that or not.

OBVIOUSLY some people rise above their circumstances. OBVIOUSLY.

I'm talking about the majority of people here. Not your anecdotal examples of successes.

It's an undeniable fact that circumstances play a significant role in what someone ultimately becomes as an adult. To even deny this fact is laughable.

Nobody is playing with equal opportunity. Sure, some people rise above but most of us are a product of our environment and how we grew up. The fact you don't even acknowledge this is baffling.

Some people in America have better opportunity. No one has no opportunity. Can everyone in the ghetto become a billionaire? No, obviously not. Can they raise a small family, pay taxes, own a modest home to live in, not engage in criminal activity, and contribute a little bit with some good choices and hard work?

Yes absolutely.

I don't recall anybody I've known not "rising above their circumstances" if they worked hard, stayed legal with their behavior, and avoided escaping reality with substance abuse.

I've known many who whined about life not being fair, were lazy/entitled, broke the law, and/or did drugs/alcohol who did not.

TBH - I don't really give a crap about the latter. You are free to help any way you want, but don't expect others to feel the same or be happy about you compelling them to do so via government force.

You're right, I do help any way that I can. Unfortunately charities and churches don't even come close to being able to solve these problems.

All of this would just be easier if you said you don't give a **** about poor people and just move on with your life.

Quote:

---

Again, you have absolutely zero experience living amongst poor people and it shows.

---

I have ample experience both being amongst and being poor.

But as Thomas Sowell says, the question of why there is poverty is no real mystery. That is the default human condition throughout history. The question is how do you rise out of poverty.

The formula of:

a) graduating high school school

b) not having kids before marriage

c) getting married and staying married

is a strong base to a stable life.

From there if you can manage to avoid bad debts and drug use, your odds of more stability increase.

None of these are a particularly high bar, but admittedly if you come from a fatherless household it becomes increasingly unlikely that someone will guide you to that path. That is the true devastation of the Great Society programs and why it wasn't just a bad idea. It was/is evil.

The more I read your posts, the more I don't give a damn about the poor.

Charity and churches have been eroded by the government and its actions.

They have created people who think themselves virtuous when they vote for property to be taken from others and used to "solve" problems. They have become conditioned to think the government is the answer to every problem.

The solutions suck and often do more harm than good. And people become far less inclined to actually help themselves because they assume the government is taking care of it.
