That video is HELLA SICK!!I had no idea you'd reply with that.
By the way, here's a terrific video on the subject that is so incredibly out of date <sarcasm alert>...
You call out people who use the term "woke" to describe them as weak minded and part of some cult but how do you describe you lunatic leftists that keep comparing everything outside of the "woke" agenda to nazi-ism? What sort of strange obsession do you have with nazis?That video is HELLA SICK!!
Uh…I don’t. Because I’m not a leftist and I’ve never brought up anything about Nazi-ism or Nazis, so who has the obsession with that? Basically what it boils down to is that my entire identity and social circle isn’t based on a fantastical political ideal. Again similar to junior high kids who stay stupid crap because their friends do and that’s what they have to do to try and fit in. And yes I’ll keep poking fun at it because it’s hilariously pathetic.You call out people who use the term "woke" to describe them as weak minded and part of some cult but how do you describe you lunatic leftists that keep comparing everything outside of the "woke" agenda to nazi-ism?

Goebbels would be proud of all the yahoos eating this crap up and vomiting it out!Uh…I don’t.

More of a reference about propaganda, but suppose that’s a fair point.Goebbels would be proud of all the yahoos eating this crap up and vomiting it out!
So the above italicized statement isn't some form of reference to Nazi-ism?
If I may cis… I am woke… or according to “how” I am.You call out people who use the term "woke" to describe them as weak minded and part of some cult but how do you describe you lunatic leftists that keep comparing everything outside of the "woke" agenda to nazi-ism?

You didn't watch it because you have no interest in truth and honest intellectual discussions. Carry on...That video is HELLA SICK!!
If I may cis… I am woke… or according to “how” I am.
So what are five things I have said, or done that would be considered woke. From what I take it maybe you consider people who have similar ideas and thoughts group think and that is woke?
what would be three policy changes that have occurred since woke became top of mind . What has changed in your particular life or you fear will change in your life by me being woke.
Uh…I don’t. Because I’m not a leftist and I’ve never brought up anything about Nazi-ism or Nazis, so who has the obsession with that?

I’m perfectly capable and happy to have an intellectual discussion. That goes out the window when it involves someone who runs around yelling “woke” and the like. Some of my best friends are firmly your camp and we have intellectual discussions, but they don’t do what you’re doing. They formulate their own thoughts instead of just blathering bullshit words they heard repeated a gazillion times by their favorite political figures and Fox News.You didn't watch it because you have no interest in truth and honest intellectual discussions.

Told you, I’m trying to help. You do you. 35% of the country, who probably represents 98% of your social circle approves…and mindlessly nods to those buzz words which makes you feel special. The other 65% laughs at you. But you don’t care, so again…you do you.This is insulting (which is the point, right?). I don't watch Fox News or any other US-based news program. Nice try though! I watch some foreign news channels via YouTube because most aren't crazy and corrupt like our corporate media...and tend to be more objective about US politics (as opposed to the nuts in most of our lying corrupt corporate media).
Woke is a term that describes a leftist atheist world view. Just because you don't like it doesn't make the word invalid. I could also use the term neoMarxist.

I fixed it for you..... Can't be giving any sort of affirmations of thought to these mentally ill people.Oh no! They laugh at me. How devastating. That hurts my feewings. You're amusing. But maybe it hurts your feelings because that word is icky or uncomfortable perhaps.
The only people being laughed at are those whose lives are ruled by feelings. Those who believe there are dozens of genders, for example. Yes...the woke/neoMarxists...it's describing the same poor souls who can't think rationally.
Have a nice day.
Good catch. Thanks.I fixed it for you..... Can't be giving any sort of affirmations of thought to these mentally ill people.
Sorry I missed this … well I think your aim continues to be off. I am white and affluent and my family white and affluent ? House is worth a mil ?We always need to take fools seriously. You get enough of these religious woke nuts in power (and we do now) then we have serious social and economic problems that follow.
Accept that you are white and affluent WokeEd. It's okay. If you are *feeling* guilty about the stolen land on which your $1M+ house is now occupying, then sell it and give the proceeds to the local Indian tribe. Let's see if you really believe what you *feel* guilty about (yes, you did mention our horrible treatment of Native Americans recently)... and about what decry our ancestors for doing (ie "stealing" native American land). You won't though. I am sure of that. Better to be a moral preener than actually acting what you believe, right?
You want to discuss slavery next? I'm ready...
Ed...you continue to have a hard time following conversations.Sorry I missed this … well I think your aim continues to be off. I am white and affluent and my family white and affluent ? House is worth a mil ?
Leftists are atheists?
Man a lot to unpack. Houses in Seattle and north are 750 and above … so not sure that makes one “affluent”.
Two, have I said I feel guilt about Nathve Americans being wiped off the face of the earth, or attempted to be? Or that we enslaved people , chained them up and used their free labor ? I feel guilty about what happened ?
Now what if I told you I or family members Were members of people who were subjugated to both those scenarios . Does that make me woke or aggrieved?
So you do agree by me being “affluent” that I must at least subscribe to capitalism . Is that now a “woke” trait ?

Whoosh to you Ed! Most all of the woke are affluent, secular, white, and apparently bored with life.

Not the best week to be throwing that around…which is really saying something considering all of the bad weeks that have preceded this one for your fan club.I fixed it for you..... Can't be giving any sort of affirmations of thought to these mentally ill people.
What happened this week? Another shooting of several Congressional representatives in Washington DC by a liberal crazy? Or perhaps another plot to kill a Supreme Court Justice from a leftist? Or more burning down local police stations or attempts at burning down a federal court house in Portland over a period of weeks? Or "only" destroying multiple businesses in several cities across the country? So many anti-government actions by our neoMarxist "friends"...it's hard to keep track of them (and our corrupt lying corporate media minimizes each of these acts too, so there's that.)Not the best week to be throwing that around…which is really saying something considering all of the bad weeks that have preceded this one for your fan club.
Ha. Your angry response speaks volumes. It’s never fun being proven wrong…and just makes people who are balls deep in bullshit cling to it that much more desperately.What happened this week?

But none of these are a threat to "democracy", right? Only a small, unarmed ragtag group of idiots who got out of hand on Jan 6 after being INVITED by the federales into the capitol building in Washington DC. Yeah...that was an "insurrection" and a grave threat to "democracy"...to the most powerful country in the world. You crackpot leftists are living in a world of lies and delusions.
The left and the right are so disingenuous, each having their sacred cows, and are blinded by them.
Abortion is homicide, let's not kid ourselves. There is no right to privacy in the Constitution.
However, strict construction my arse. The 2nd amendment reads, "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. You are supposed to read the whole thing together "in pari materia." Let's not kid ourselves, the founding fathers, in an era before large standing armies, envisioned a Switzerland like use and access to firearms in State defense.
In light of the "well established right divesting" precedent of the upcoming striking down of Roe, your individual right to bear arms is five anti individual gun rights justices way from being severely curtailed, if not done away with. All prior Supreme Court case law protecting the "individual's" right to bear arms can be overturned because, citing the up coming decision as game changing precedent, nothing in the 2nd amendment expressly protect it, that right to bear arms belongs to the "the people" not any "individual," all prior legal precedent to the contrary be damned.
Both probably the correct literal reading on the Constitution.
A country where states can ban abortion, but you have militia regulated access to weapons only! Leaving the Left and right to think? What the hell happened to our sacred cows!
Angry? What if I am? Is there no place for anger when injustices are being done? I don't see a problem with anger. There are plenty of things we can be angry about with regard to our lying corrupt corporate media and our lying government.Ha. Your angry response speaks volumes. It’s never fun being proven wrong…and just makes people who are balls deep in bullshit cling to it that much more desperately.
Nope, my eyes and ears are always open…I probably have my biases like everything w human nature, but I don’t tune out one thing at the expense of another. The economy is on the verge of shambles right now because of short sighted monetary policy…who’s in power? Yup, I acknowledge that and I’m not happy about it. Seattle as an example is a shithole largely because of the leftists you speak of. I hate it. I’m not one of them. Will it swing the other way eventually when people get sick of living in a cesspool? Sure, always does. I’m being honest, you really think I’m a leftist? Now that said I can also look at the bigger picture of what’s transpired with our government and leaders and be disgusted by it. I’ve not watched a minute of the hearings btw, but all of the testimony of what transpired has come from R’s inside the administration. You do get that right? This is not D’s talking about this stuff on Maddow or Anderson Cooper…this has nothing to do w “news”. Difference between you and me…you can’t acknowledge truths or separate reality from “fake news” because you are buried so deep in bullshit you can’t crawl out of it. I have no problem acknowledging Democrats are flailing right now on plenty of issues, and I’m not making excuses for them.Angry? What if I am?

Everything I wrote on the previous post is a fact. But your supposed claim of being a "moderate" is showing itself to be a lie...given your lack of acknowledgement of those facts. Or perhaps it's a selective memory only?
I'm not a Republican. I don't know how many times I need to state that.Nope, my eyes and ears are always open…I probably have my biases like everything w human nature, but I don’t tune out one thing at the expense of another.

Ed...you continue to have a hard time following conversations.
You were having a difficult time admitting you were Caucasian a couple of weeks ago....so thanks. My aim was correct. Affluent? Yes, you admit this. Aimed correctly again. So perhaps your house is not worth a million? You tell me. But regardless, do you understand how affluent you are relative to most of the world's population (if not just the US)? I hope you aren't that out of touch. You are in the mortgage business so I think you know your house value.
One cannot be a leftist (ie neoMarxist) and also hold to Judeo-Christian values. These are competing views....not complimentary ones. You should know this.
See comment above.
You brought it up. Decrying how the Europeans drove the Natives off their land and how a very small percentage of ancestors of Europeans in the US had slaves. So please don't be so cagey. Are you feeling guilty or not? Do you think we need to right that wrong? You go first, if so (re: taken Native American lands). I suspect you won't.
Don't ask the question. Again, no need to be cagey. Were you? It's okay to be open and honest.
Whoosh to you Ed! Most all of the woke are affluent, secular, white, and apparently bored with life. The Ivy League schools are chocked full of these people...all working toward utopia in this world.
For some strange reason they feel guilty about our country's past sins...even though they had nothing to do with those sins. Do you feel guilty about what you have not done (having slaves, taking away Indian lands by force, etc.)? Is that typical of how your conscience works?By the way, you likely don't know this but all civilizations in human history have had slavery.
The worst demographic threat to our liberty are part of the aforementioned demographic. Yes, they benefit from the economic system we have (mostly capitalism...crony capitalism to be more precise), but they despise the non-politically correct for not playing into their fake religion of neoMarxism (wokeism).
Until you can’t list the most serious attack on our constitutional republic with the others you listed I can’t take you seriously. And that’s fine if you’re not a Republican (highly doubtful considering this discussion with me started with the term “woke” which is inarguably a Republican buzz word). But you don’t want to label yourself a Republican, and you hate republicans…no problem. What’s your solution? And what does running around yelling “woke” at people solve? You are trashing one label to lift up another. You hate labels but then contradict yourself?I'm not a Republican. I don't know how many times I need to state that.
I have contempt for the Dims. Why? Because all they care about is power...at any cost. Besides that, they hate most people...except the wealthy/elites. They are the party of the rich...and have been for at least a decade. So much for caring about the poor and downtrodden, right?
The Republicans are mostly cowards and reactionaries...so I have contempt for most of them. There are a few exceptions though.
So the "testimony" coming from Republicans is mostly cowards who I despise. Cheney and the other idiots who sell their souls to be popular with the corrupt lying corporate media. Her career is over as a Republican, but I'm sure she'll get a $1M+ deal with CNN or MSNBC after November. Tough life, eh?
I listed to you all the actual attacks on our Constitutional Republic in the past few years (attacking a courthouse, shooting US Reps in DC, burning down cities, conspiring to kill a SCOTUS member, etc.), so this idiotic show hearing (which is done 100 percent to posture for the 2022 elections) is not impressive and I can't take it seriously (because it is a joke and the Dims have completely whitewashed the actual and serious attacks on our country from leftists). Why don't you see the difference?
Ed in the Head...not even sure how to respond. You claimed I was white and thus my wokeness.
Again...it was a ragtag small group of idiots who actually came into the capitol building and to say it was a threat to our constitutional republic is silly.Until you can’t list the most serious attack on our constitutional republic with the others you listed I can’t take you seriously.
And that’s fine if you’re not a Republican (highly doubtful considering this discussion with me started with the term “woke” which is inarguably a Republican buzz word).

We have some common ground here. But what I will say is that if people have their free speech suppressed (and I have on social media), this is not a good thing. As long as everyone plays by the rules of not threatening another person, then free speech must be allowed. If that is suppressed, then people get angry...and some get violent. So...free speech for all. That is what I want to see. The election in 2020 was a fraud because 51 former US intel leaders signed a letter saying that Hunter Biden's laptop was a classic Russian disinformation ploy. They had no clue. Of course, our corrupt lying corporate media (who are also on the left) loved that and parroted what they said and buried this critical story. The corrupt corporate media also played cheerleader on the "Russian Collusion" fraud. It was a complete lie and a scam started by Hillary Clinton. This is what makes people angry. When the game is rigged they get very angry.As for the people you called cowards? 100% agree with you. They are cowards because they had an opportunity stand for democracy and wilted in fear of losing power…plenty continue to do so. And Im not saying this is just a R problem, it’s deeply rooted throughout our govt., both sides. Money has corrupted the entire thing to the core.
How do you propose fighting the left? I say this not to mock you, but as someone who also doesn’t like extreme left views.
as for 2020, we aren’t going to agree there. Trump lost. All the fraud claims have been debunked. Dozens of court cases all thrown out. Zero proof of fraud. Honestly I think Trump is the worlds biggest con, but if there was any legitimate proof of fraud I’d listen (crackhead pillow guy doesn’t count).
This is why I have a problem with “woke”. I mentioned goebbels earlier…not to insinuate anyone being a nazi, but because he’s known as one of history’s great propagandists. And the basic premise of his strategy is repeat something enough, as bogus as it might be, and people not only believe it they will repeat it continuously. “Woke” has been beaten to death by conservative news and R politicians. I don’t like leftist buzz words either. I don’t run around saying “build back better” or whatever crap they are saying.
another question I’d have is why so upset about the results of the election anyways. You say you are a true conservative…Trump isn’t. Never was. He’s not Christian…obviously. He’s never fired a gun in his life. I would think someone like you would want a reset and get back to conservatism the way you like it. Quickest way to do that is to flush Trump out and have a true conservative take the mantle IMO. D’s are doing such a fine job of F’ing up the economy right now, would be the perfect time to promote someone with some staying power into that role. From an outsiders perspective, Trump has become nothing but a stain on conservatism. I know people, including my own parents, who were conservative and have been pushed to the left because of Trump. Aside from there being no proof of wide scale fraud, this is where it’s easy for me to see why trump lost. He not only turned off people in the middle, he completely pushed people from the right to the left. I saw it with people around me. You don’t win close races that way, and his polling was awful before the election which is why he was floating the idea of voter fraud well before it.
No need to further discuss . You are comfortable calling someone woke because you feel the broad brush you paint with is accurate . I simply wanted to know what your basis was for calling people woke .Ed, we can't have a discussion if you are dishonest or not paying attention to what I have stated.
From above (my words)...
"Most all of the woke are affluent, secular, white, and apparently bored with life. "
Compare to what you wrote and then we can continue.
Yeah, ok. Because of some crowd shots, one during “pandemic”? And I’m a dribbling idiot. I’m not much of a Biden fan right now, but truth is his supporters and Dems quietly vote, trumps are the ones that need to be in a fan club and show up to these things. Boat parades don’t give you extra votes. Why was trump whining about fraud before the election? Because he F’ing knew he was toast. A majority of the country hates him. You’re the dude that whines all the way home about the refs when your team lost 42-14. F’ing baby.The media babies the shit out of Biden. The most popular president in history yet his approval rating is trash.
Biden approval rating at 39% amid economic fears; 47% 'strongly disapprove': USA TODAY/Suffolk poll
You are an absolute dribbling moron if you think Biden won legitimately. The #1 metric they use for presidential races in terms of popularity are rallies.
yawn
The left taking the groomer approach and wanting drag queen story time will(should) destroy them, have fun with that.

Jc … I would think your claims would be easy to prove. Have you bothered to listen to people under oath . Bill Barr said it was fantasy . 62 judges said it was fantasy . There hasn’t been a shred of proof . Trumps own cyber security expert said it was safest ever . Even trumps daughter said her dad lost .Okay, groomer.
He was "whining" about fraud because of the mail in voting BS that the dims wanted to do everywhere. People dumping ballots in drop boxes at 3am is cool too.
You're one of those pussies that is too afraid to see the truth. Embodiment of pure soy.

But it is fine . In 2024 east squeezy squeezy as trunp actually wins . Claim voter fraud , have zero proof , say ballots were dropped without proof and have Kamala Harris do what pence would not do . At this point that is the playbook and you are fine with it
Ha! You worship the biggest pussy crybaby this country has ever seen and I’m a pussy? You lick the boots of the guy who folded like a wet paper towel to Putin in Helsinki. Not only that he despises YOU. He wouldn’t let you get within 100 yards of him if you weren’t donating $50K to be at some grift dinner.Okay, groomer.
