Ross the 'Christian', analysis of American political parties

doomed
It is so nice to see an adult in the White House trying to get shit done, instead of an overgrown toddler who spends all his time tweeting his tantrums, golfing, and holding rallies for his cult.

doomed: How do you feel about the Democrats failing to undo the filibuster, a necessary step in order to pass federal voting rights laws -- once again -- to block state-level GOP efforts to annihilate democracy?
EonEcho
The failure to remove that filibuster -- all but guaranteed -- means Joe Biden will likely be the last Democratic president in history.
EonEcho
Getting rid of Trump increased the chance of America making it from 0% to 2%.
doomed
I didn't expect them to undo the filibuster.
EonEcho
No scandals means you get the slightest of reprieves as the ship sinks.

more like they're are the fans of TV reality star trump and would follow him back to the democratic party where trump came from
EonEcho
Ross: Trump is the cult leader of the Republican Party, correct?
Ross
seems so for now ... but the republican majority finally decides to disassociate trump from the party and trump goes, his tv fans willl follow him out
EonEcho
Ross: Trump is utterly beloved in the GOP and has the entire party by its neck, right?
EonEcho
Trump ain't ever leavin' the GOP. He is the GOP. Anybody who's not on board is out.

Ross
trump flipped from the republican party, to the democratic party, to the independent, and then ran as a republican .... let's say trump is unstable politically and socially
Ross
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Trump
Ross
trump probably paid someone to take the classes for him
EonEcho
Ross: He's a malignant narcissist who can only love himself. He's not capable of being part of anything other than himself.
EonEcho
That his con partially worked on Democrats in years prior is a testament to that party's corruption.
Ross
he is definitely mentally ill
EonEcho
That he found his forever home in the GOP could only ever occur there because of the intense failing of the right-wing mind and its complete and utter enthrallment to right-wing lies blasted 24/7 on all right-wing media.
EonEcho
He can never return to the Democratic Party, as there is a semblance of morality and accountability in that party, even though it's insufficient to run a nation.
EonEcho
Hell, in 2020 like a 1/3 of Democrats worked to get Republican Bloomberg elected as Democratic president -- obviously there is intense corruption at its highest levels.
EonEcho
(The corruption is due to capitalism.)
Ross
tim scott should step up to run
EonEcho
I don't anything about him, but it's extremely likely he's a good to Wall Street.
Ross
tim scott and ben crump
EonEcho
(Essentially all senior members of the Democratic Party work for Wall Street.)
Ross
the democrats are wealthy richy rich ppl too
EonEcho
"It's a big party, and you ain't in it." - George Carlin
EonEcho
Two things are true in this context: 1) America has no leftist party, 2) America has no party invested in the typical American.
EonEcho
Both of which are caused by capitalism.
Ross
your say is one vote every 4 years
Ross
democrats do what they can get the socialism in and going
EonEcho
The Democratic Party hates socialism.

EonEcho
That there is any connection between the Democratic Party and socialism is a pernicious, anti-COVID-19 level lie from right-wing media.

EonEcho
I know, 'cause I'm a socialist.
EonEcho
Both parties are parties of Wall Street.
Ross
depends on what you call socialism
EonEcho
I mean, all modern nation-states are a mixture of capitalism and socialism.
EonEcho
I'm taking that as a given and then evaluating the Democratic Party from that entrenched perspective.
EonEcho
From the status quo, the Democratic Party hates socialism.
EonEcho
The GOP has literally no values other than 1) Whites should always win everything, and 2) the rich people who run our party should win everything.
EonEcho
This doesn't really work that great with GOP voters, as almost all of them aren't rich.
EonEcho
The point of right-wing media writ large is to convert the class interests of the wealthy owners of the GOP to the class interests of the poor whites through emotional manipulation -- primarily outrage.
EonEcho
That's the whole ballgame.
EonEcho
From this stew of shit emerges the laughably false notion the Democratic Party is about socialism.
Ross
the main difference between the republicans and the democrats ... republican are for defense of the nation and fiscal responsibilty .... the democrats are tax & spend, without fiscal repsonibility
EonEcho
Ross: That is an anti-COVID-19 level lie.
EonEcho
It's wild you haven't updated your beliefs since the 1990s.
EonEcho
Are you interested in what is actually true?
EonEcho
If not, I'll forgo the game where I give the facts and you pretend to care and we pretend to debate it.
Ross
well, EonEcho make sure you get your two shots of the vaccine  ... if the virus really scares you .... got back for 2nds, maybe 3rd treatments
EonEcho
Sure.
EonEcho
I put Ross on block until 2025-01-20.
EonEcho
For the others: 1) data indicates the Democratic Party has been far more fiscally responsible than the GOP since at least 2000 with George W. Bush -- it's not remotely close.
EonEcho
2) The greatest attack on the republic in its history was on 2021-01-06, with the attempted murder of 50% of Congress and the removal of our democracy to be replaced by the Trump Cult. This was participated by the GOP.
EonEcho
The GOP is the greatest threat to national security in the history of the republic. Most of its leaders should be imprisoned or killed for their treason.
EonEcho
68% of Republicans in the House voted to destroy democracy AFTER the attempted coup-d'etat on 2021-01-06.
EonEcho
The GOP has no moral authority for the rest of its existence for this behavior.
EonEcho
So, if you're for defense and fiscal responsibility, the Democratic Party is the clear choice.
EonEcho
However, both parties are completely rotted and captured by oligarchs and couldn't care less about your interests.
EonEcho
I updated Ross's block to 2041-01-20.
EonEcho
If you get COVID-19 wrong, then you're not valuable on any topic.
EonEcho
As of today, America has lost about 2x WW2 deaths due to COVID-19, according to a recent study of the true number of deaths.
16:35 EonEcho
This is in about 14 months v. 44 months of WW2.
EonEcho
So, COVID-19 killed Americans at ~6x the rate of WW2.
EonEcho
And for this, Ross the 'Christian', expresses disdain.
EonEcho
And by doing so, of course, once again, brings complete and utter shame on everything Christ.
