Personally I find it incredible that there are people who have a cult like following of Trump here. Presumably intelligent university educated people supporting a guy who tried to overthrow the US election outcome illegally even as every legal opinion from his own people said it's wrong. He is a liar, a sleaze bag, a confessed pussy grabber, self serving, a convicted felons.

Your question works the other way by the way. Maybe even better cause I think it's irrational to stand with Trump even if you have liberals and believe they'll bring back communism. It's the level of irrationally some in this country hold about the DA bringing back apartheid.

So you do not stand FOR something...but rather are upset about Trump and his followers.

My point is...why care? What does it matter to you and other SO much that you get SO worked up about Trump and his cult as you call it? This is what fascinates me about this whole situation.

Why focus on Trump? You and the rest of the Upset Ones, can do absolute fukkal about him and his cult followers.

Why not focus on "your side" of the aisle? Criticize YOUR leaders and see where THEY should or could do better.

All this mudslinging and meming and reeeeing against the GOP is pointless and rather a cult of it's own, no?

I know it feels good to fight the good side and be one of the "good guys gang" and be one of those on the "right side" of history, but this kak as rather childish and silly I think.

If you are SO invested in the victory and success of the Dems, it would be very refreshing to see someone start a thread about the Dems, asking questions like "How can we win?" and "If we win, what can we do better?".

Kakking your pants about Trump every 5 minutes, will not make the Dems win OR make them effective and good leaders.

And you presumably have no horse in this race but are rather just reeing at anti-Trumpists? And you think it childish to wonder at the Trump mania when you are reeing about people reeing? I think some self awareness evaluation should be in order here. People in glass houses and all that.
 
Interesting thread about the Harris/Walz logo evolution

www.threads.net

Jonathan Hoefler (@jonathanhoefler) on Threads

The Harris/Walz logo got a smart and subtle haircut this weekend, which, like the very best typography, is making everything better while drawing very little attention to itself. What you see here is the terrific work of Tal Leming on letterforms (@typesupply) and Ben Ostrower on creative...

I think it is wonderful when people listen to the Musk-Trump interview. That way they can hear Trump compliment Musk for simply firing workers who wanted to strike.

Why are you deflecting by attacking ME ? You're doing exactly what I said..."reeing about people reeing" ? Wtf does that even mean?

You cannot defend YOUR position, so you resort to "attack is the best defense". This proves that you have no real position and do not really care or stand for anything in the US political race...you are just here to froth about Trump, since it makes you feel good and seem superior.

I have no dog in the US political race. Why should I have one? But my question still is: do YOU have one?

Trump is not even the president. According to you and other Dem supporters, he will not win the election. So why all the froth and cult mania? Why does Trump matter? He surely doesn't matter to me.

Thanks for making my point for me, though.

The US is the most powerful and influential country in the world. If Trump got elected it would have very real effects on other areas of the world (Ukraine being one), US attitudes towards other countries (including ours) another. Do you honestly think that none of us have any real stake or reason to be concerned about Trump possibly winning another term?

Do you think Kamala Harris will have influence over the rest of the world?
 
Cray said:
Yes, but I believe her influence on the world would be better than if Trump was elected, am sure you will disagree.

I don't know. I haven't heard from her (not reading from teleprompter) or her policies yet. I wait eagerly for Sept 10.

No I do not think any of you/us have any real stake or reason to be concerned. I think that is just quite a weak excuse to froth about Trump and the GOP.

Frothing about Trump and Musk is just the flavor of the month/year. I do not for a minute believe this "concern" stuff. If you're so concerned about SA rather focus on the state of politics in SA. I do not see a fraction of this effort going into that situation.

No one here on this platform is REALLY concerned about US politics, Israel/Palestine or Ukraine.

I know it sounds cool to claim that you are and to receive that little pat on the shoulder from other likewise minded posters...but in truth kvetching on MyBB about kak that does not affect your life at all and never will, is just a way of feeling better about your schitty day.

Trolling with glee for years and years... Then this. It's like farting, and then being puzzled that the room stinks.

Cool, tell us more about how everyone else really feels about stuff despite their posts to the contrary. You might have callous indifference to things happening outside of your little bubble but the assumption that everyone else actually thinks like you but doesn't admit it is pretty laughable.
