General Politics Thread

Sigh. At this point, I'm getting really tired of leftists going on forums, and co-opting right-leaning people.

I was in a thread about tariffs, how its all Trump's fault that the prices of products are so high. Sigh.

I'm am starting to get burnt out on trying to debunk these losers to seep ideology into people.

I try not to attack people over it, but stupidity is my kryptonite.

If they want to blame anyone other than Biden for everything, they can blame Bill Clinton. The economy has had issues since he did that agreement with China and our manufacturing went overseas. Couple that with general corporate greed and well, shite economy.

You can also blame a lot of the price increases on "green standards" too which were largely pushed by Obama and Biden.

Oops :haha:

I think he should have been pardoned for the gun stuff. But dating this back to 2014 knowing the dude was up to all sorts of crime while daddy was VP?

:ugg:

I wish he didn’t lie and say he wouldn’t have done it. But almost anyone who could help their son would do so. That’s my two cents on it.

I already knew he was going to get pardoned, but dating it back 11 years is the problem here. That is what should be the focus. The dude was doing shady deals on behalf of his dad in Russia, Ukraine, China, etc. and now he will never be held accountable for those things.

Do I think he should’ve done it? Probably not. If I had a kid and had the power to help them would I? I guess it depends on if what they did was something that physically harm someone. If not, then I more than likely would. Sadly sometimes people get pardons that shouldn’t, Biden wasn’t the first, and won’t be the last. Like I said I don’t really agree with it. Just I can’t say I wouldn’t do the same thing. Cause I don’t have a kid and don’t have that kind of power even if I did.

No I get that but this is the same dude that slept with underage girls and called his own father Pedo Pete. I don't know if this was Biden even protecting his own son, he may have just done it to protect himself. Hunter can't be on trial against his father now for any of it. Not like he was going to prison anyways. The dude is old and not all there anymore mentally. I am just sick of criminals getting away with crime.

There is more here than we even know and probably won't know for a long time.

Oh trust me, I am also. It’s why I don’t care for anyone in politics, none of them are clean right left or center and if it was up to me they all would pay for any and every single one of their crimes, from the top all the way to the bottom.

South Korea is under Martial Law.... :wut:
So apparently the news is that Yoon feels there are too many sympathizers with North Korea and communism and this actions is a means to protect their democracy. I don't know enough about Korean politics but I do know we likely won't be getting the full truth on this for a while. I am seeing videos of police clashing with people already.

I agree with most of what he said. And actually, there is NO media to speak of in Korea countries. No freedom of the press.

You have only ONE channel in there. North and South Korea ia similar in their communist dictatorship. Make no mistake about it both are communist countries. The fact they're using "Democratic" and "Democracy" as a disguise is ridiculous.

They are split countries, like the difference between Mainland China and Taiwan. There was a civil war, that resulted in Taiwan becoming its own democracy.

I feel like China has a hand in this. Think of this story as the eastern version of the Ukraine/Israel conflicts. Russia wants access to landmass of either or both countries. China wants control of the landmass of Korea to reach...

....wait for it....

Taiwan.

But that was supposedly reported, that China has ties in South Korea and this is their attempt to stop it.

But they already also voted against Martial Law. I saw an update about that a few hours ago. The system is already blocking it so regardless of who is right or wrong with this move, we know there is corruption. I don't think they need South Korea to go for Taiwan. They could just make a deal with North Korea. Likely already have but I can't see them doing this with Trump coming in and the threats of an economical trade war looming. America will lose access to a lot of items and it will get bad but it will be made even worse for China. They are much worse off right now than America. Maybe in an act of desperation they will do it and then the media and democrats of the US and Europe will blame Trump.
