-And how many lives will be destroyed this time before it gets dismissed

"probably a lot to be honest."

Wow honesty! Very refreshing.

Now that there is a real difference between me and you.

I don't accept that even one life should destroyed by this nonsense. Not one.

Much less hundreds or thousands of upended lives before it is finally "dismissed". Again. For the third time.

What exactly is you're afraid of this time, Donner?

Me? Nada. I don't even carry a gun.

Some of us are actually more concerned for the welfare of others.

"over what? calling you a commie? calling me one?"

Are you living in a cave? How many Americans have been traumatized and careers destroyed by this administration already?

Destroyed because of their ideology!

Whats a few more. Gotta catch em all!

And you really don't think Trumpy or his acolytes would not have someone he accuses as a "communist" fired or otherwise harassed if he can? A few hundred thousand more won't matter and you won't even complain about that either I guess.

it's fun to watch.

Happy to be able to enlighten AND entertain you!

Be sure and tip the waitress on your way out and don't forget to subscribe to my channel. lol

Which is why the next jackass that comes along screaming "commie!" will get dismissed for the most part.

Right. And how many lives will be destroyed this time before it gets dismissed. Again. For the third time.

Me...."nobody takes it seriously"

you..."But goddammit they should!!!!"

WTF is this nonsense ?

You definitely have a reading comprehension issue.

Or you have misquoted misunderstood me on purpose.

No. It's just that i challenge you to explain yourself when you say stupid shat and i questioned why you think no one takes this seriously and countered you with facts.

When the folks in power right now obviously do take this seriously and they want you to also.

And at first I did not take them seriously. But now after seeing them act out their worst facist fantasies on America I certainly do.

I made the mistake once of thinking there was no way America would seriously vote for Trumpy and The Great American FAFO.

Like you made the mistake of thinking the Supreme Court would never overturn Roe v Wade. Yeah. I won't ever make that mistake again.

Because I can learn.

I question whether you can.

I don't get sucked into such things the way you seem to be all the time.

Ha!

Looking at you not getting "sucked in".

Just that they've grown tired of the accusations and they're desensitized to it.

That's probably one of the biggest takeaways from the McCarthy era.

See? That's what YOU learned.

That's exactly what I mean by Americans don't know their own history and do not ever learn from it.

See? I got something entirely different from that episode in American History.

My biggest takeaway from the McCarthy era is that fear and political paranoia can easily destroy basic rights.

During the 1950s, Senator Joseph McCarthy ruined lives and jobs by accusing innocent people of being communists without any proof.

This should have taught Americans to always protect the truth and defend free speech.

But. Did Americans really learn that? Apparently not. Not on the planet I am currently sitting on.

"Let the adults run things."

Where are they?

As soon as I get a chance I will gladly vote for them.

You're just entertainment.

And you think you are somehow different and above it all?

lol

We are all just entertainment for the Gods.

I wouldn't attribute it to any kind of maturity or growth.

Just that they've grown tired of the accusations and they're desensitized to it.

Brother.. we are all very tired of it. But that doesn't seem to be stopping it!

One thing I've learned about Americans.

They really don't know much about our own history. They do not learn from our history because they really don't want to know our history.

Which is why we always seem to be repeating and reliving our past mistakes.

"Honestly, I don't follow FIFA....I know nothing."

Apparently you should preface all your posts with that line.

Who is legitimately afraid of it now? What planet do you live on?

You think Americans have really changed and grown up out of it?

It was not the first time and it's obviously not going to be the last.

Not if Donald J Trump and his faithful maga followers have anything to do with it.

Obviously.

It appears America is now experiencing a "third Red Scare," though it differs from the anti-communist hunts of the 1920s and 1950s. Instead of targeting actual Soviet agents, the modern version uses terms like "socialist" or "communist" to attack liberals, democrats and social democrats and political opponents and labor organizers and even protesters.

If you were really on this planet you would already know this.

Do not question the Emperor.

Fear of communism is like the herpes virus. It is only able bubble to the surface and express itself in times of extreme national stress.

You know. Like we are experiencing right now

Counting ballots for weeks after election days is 3rd world crap.

You sure about that? Do "third world counties" even have real elections? I am gonna bet most don't. Winning 100% of the vote hours after the elections is a little more suspect than winning by a close count days or even weeks later.

Also ... Attempting an insurrection when the election doesn't go your way and then pardoning all the insurrectionists once you regain power is definitely some third world crap.

Nobody took that seriously. Why would they take this any more seriously?

No one took Joe McCarthy's red baiting seriously?

Senator Joseph McCarthy ruined the careers and reputations of thousands of Americans during the "Red Scare" of the early 1950s. While an exact number is impossible to determine, historians estimate that hundreds of people lost their jobs directly, while thousands of others faced intense questioning, blacklisting, and public shaming

What planet do you live on? This crap is as dangerous when was weaponized then as it is now. Perhaps even more so with the surveillance tech we have today.

All Mamdani is doing is kicking the can down the road (billions from State, deferred payments), looks good to people like you (uneducated), and then when it goes south you'll blame Trillionaires, or even the next GOP talking head.

#13 | Posted by oneironaut

So. Same ---- different day. The same thing we have always been doing. America has 39 trillion dollar deficit. Which is clearly just "kicking the can down the road" 39 Trillion times.

Code for "not us."

Yes. Which is, in Trumpy's words, foolish, stupid, and unwise.
