To say that the battle flag is not an actual flag is misleading and untruthful.

It's an easy misdirect away from the actual problem. So yeah, it is absolutely misleading and untruthful.

The right to vote, given that the republican forerunner is seeking to be a dictator.

/u/blamemeta, are you going to call this out for treating leftists as a monolith, or will the double standard continue?

It's not a lie. Trump straight up said he'd be a dictator. He said it on national television. Here is him doubling down on it:

And evidently he is quite fond of Hitler:

In his new book The Return of Great Powers, which comes out Tuesday, reporter Jim Sciutto interviews several of Trump’s former advisers. All of them stressed that Trump regularly lavished praise on authoritarian leaders around the world, calling Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán “fantastic,” Chinese President Xi Jinping “brilliant,” and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un an “OK guy.”

Horrifyingly, Trump also said, “Well, but Hitler did some good things,” according to John Kelly, who served as White House chief of staff from 2017 to 2019.

“I said, ‘Well, what?’ And he said, ‘Well, [Hitler] rebuilt the economy.’ But what did he do with that rebuilt economy? He turned it against his own people and against the world. And I said, ‘Sir, you can never say anything good about the guy. Nothing,’” Kelly told Sciutto. “I mean, Mussolini was a great guy in comparison.”

Kelly said that Trump also praised Hitler for achieving complete loyalty from senior Nazi officials—and Trump expected similar fealty from the retired generals he brought on to his cabinet.

“He would ask about the loyalty issues and about how, when I pointed out to him the German generals as a group were not loyal to him, and in fact tried to assassinate him a few times, and he didn’t know that,” Kelly said. “He truly believed, when he brought us generals in, that we would be loyal—that we would do anything he wanted us to do.”

Like I said in the other thread, I’d rather vote for Biden’s dead corpse and hear fox news bitch about him being sleepy for 4 years than have a dictator.

Those are battle flags. That isn’t the confederate flag.

colloquial - used in ordinary or familiar conversation; not formal or literary

It is the confederate flag. You know exactly what they meant. Doing an "um achktually" doesn't rebut their point.

You tried to pass off studies of legal immigrats as illegal immigrants, got caught and now demand that I prove that they are different because you know you can’t find any studies to support that claim.

Go learn what a null hypothesis is and come back to me.

Are you claiming legals were misidentified as illegals?

No. I'm saying they're only giving the immigrants the "counting prisoners" treatment. They're not treating immigrants and citizens equally in their "analysis".

"Trump is a convicted rapist" and "Trump is a rapist" are not the same.

He wasn't convicted due to the statute of limitations (~12 years for rape). We don't need to have a conviction to know he is a rapist.

So quit the bullshit.

Agreed. It is way past time to reform our electoral system to give third parties a chance through star and approval voting. And the bullshit that happens with the primaries being run however the parties like needs to end.

The average rural voter was already voting to ban drag.

The fence sitters seeing a drag performer being humanized is good enough for me.
