look no further than the results of capitalism…
It doesn’t take a genius to figure out why that won’t and doesn’t work.

  1. Socialist countries form.
     
  2. Send in FBI agents to destabilise said socialist countries and cause a crisis.
     
  3. Install a new pro-capitalist government partial to America.
     
  4. Repeat this until every single socialist government in the world is toppled.
     
  5. Say that Socialism doesn’t work.
     
  6. ???
     
  7. Profit.

I would also like to add that Sharia law has little to no chance of becoming mainstream in America because it’s filled with people like Kyle Biddle and Shirani.
 
But if they want to cater to their own persecution complexes, then there’s nothing I or anyone else in the thread can do.

Except that wasn’t a debate, that was him mocking me. I’m not hurling insults by calling dumb statements dumb.
 
I’ve already had to give the universal “Look, this is why we keep locking these threads” post, and I swear, by Celestia Left Frontal Lobe, if I have to stop this care One. More. Time, then NO PONY will get to go to Didney Worl.

But there is no institutionalized racism!
 
The chief wanted perfect stats, so cops were told to pin crimes on black people, probe found The indictment was damning enough: A former police chief of Biscayne Park and two officers charged with falsely pinning four burglaries on a teenager just to impress village leaders with a perfect crime-solving record.
 
In summary a police chief told his cops to grab random black people with any kind of a record and pin unsolved burglaries on them to make him look better,
 
Shit like this is why no one trusts cops anymore, bunch of crooked lazy ass mother fuckers make sure they all look bad,

lmfao a Steven Crowder video is your source? I’m sure that’s very reputable and not biased at all.
 
I mean shit, I can post a Shaun, hbomber, or even Contrapoints video safe in the knowledge that in the description I can find a library of sources, additional readings, or in Shaun’s case a link back to any video he’s responding to and an invitation to watch it so we - the watcher - can be safe in the knowledge we can figure out if there’s any misrepresebtation going on, if we’re going to make YouTube anything big.
 
Otherwise on this trans issue I can just go back and grab the catalogue of some several hundreds of research on this trans subject. Tie everyone up with months of literature.

Ok, now we have people reporting each other in here because people are calling each other “dumb” and “snowflake”.
 
Let’s try this one last time:
 
@Derpy Whooves  
Periodically, it seems it’s just necessary to repeat this in here, so let’s do it again.
This isn’t anyone’s personal hug box.
No one here gets to drive out ‘the gays’, or silence ‘the left’, or refuse admittance to ‘the Muslims’, and AntiFAs are just as welcome here as literal Fascists and Nazis.
Share your opinions of politics here if you must - but when you start threatening civil wars and saying that others are “spitting on you” simply because they pray to a different god(s) or disagree with you about Net Neutrality or others subjects, then YOU are going to be the one getting banned, not the people you are trying to shout down.
You’re all stuck in here together, and all we ask is that you be civil toward each other, and not try to drive out anyone else based on their views or the circumstances of their birth.
And if you can’t stand being in here with someone who might be “gendered differently” than you think is right, or who doesn’t pray the way you think people should pray, or who has a political opinion that you think should be eliminated from the face of the Earth, and the only way you can deal with them is by doubling down and being as extreme and antagonistic as possible, then it is you who is going to be asked to leave, not them.
This isn’t anyone’s personal hug space.
Share it - politely - with everyone else here, or leave.
 
Stop poking fun at each other, teasing each other, antagonizing others, and calling each other names.
 
We don’t care if you are conservative or liberal, smart or dumb, or what other sorting process you prefer - just be civil to each other, act like grownups, and follow our rules, which include the special rules for this thread in the first post
 
No more warnings tonight.

@Derpy Whooves  
The left is not directly pushing for Sharia law, however they’re quite ambivalent towards the issue whenever they’re demanded to take a stronger stance against them. Female genital mutilation in the UK has only had 1 conviction against it in its whole 30 year history when it was banned, despite thousands of reports being filed each year. No-go zones were denied for years as a right wing conspiracy, until recently people like Angela Merkel had to make a public statement acknowledging their existence after overwhelming evidence and concern from citizens talking about their experience with them.
 
Simply put, even when the left has not made Sharia law advocacy into their political platform, they have been complicit in inadvertedly tolerating or ignoring parallel societies that demand Sharia compliance within the nation. Laxer law enforcement, police racial bias training and councils, censoring public discourse on sexual crimes commited by muslims, enforcing hate speech laws, cultural relativist narratives and increased welfare for newly arrived migrants have all contributed to some cities becoming more dominated by primarily Islamic cultural practices. In Belgium, there is already an Islamic party since the 2012 with electoral seats that has made Sharia law and gender segregated public transport their open goal.
 
It doesn’t mean that the more centrist, supposedly conservative parties in Europe haven’t been as toothless on the issue, yet there is a particular moral flare and denialism from the left that doesn’t tolerate even the implications behind the topic.

Either you’re a man or a women or you’re not. Thinking otherwise is delusional because your beliefs don’t conform with reality.
How is thinking you’re a women if you’re a man not delusional? How would that be any different than thinking I’m literally a bobcat when that’s demonstrably not true? It doesn’t make any sense, which is why it’s a bullshit ideology and not science.
And we’re not doing trans people any favors by telling them that that’s a perfectly normal thought to have.
And no, in case you forgot, I’m not talking about people with actual genital defects aka intersex disorders.
 
You know, there was a time when people thought being gay was “delusional” and “not normal”. “C’mon!” these people said, “a penis goes in a vagina! You’re delusional to think it goes somewhere else!”
 
So tell me, if there’s nothing wrong with wanting to bump uglies with the same sex, with someone who has privates that weren’t biologically designed to bump with yours, then what’s so wrong about wanting to be the other sex?

You can’t hide the truth. All you have to do is look. If you don’t make it a point to be informed about something, of course you’re not going to understand it.
 
Just because it’s not in the news or the politicians don’t discuss it, that doesn’t mean you can’t find this information on the internet with a simple Google search.  
@RiskyPony  
@Lord Hypno
Lmao @ unironicly calling yourself a “progressive/socialist” no wonder you think America sucks. Your values are completely incompatible with American values.
It boggles my mind that people can think socialism in any way is a good idea when you’re born to the fruits of Capitalism.
What’s progressive about wanting the government to control everything? That’s a massive step backwards about 200 years if you ask me.

Your average joe is also not a political junkie. Unlike people here, their main source of information on politics comes from the news. I know I’m guilty of that, I rely on the news to get general information and make my own decisions based on what I’ve been informed on.
