@Beachslim right, because your AR-15 is going to protect you if the government decides to use tanks and bombs against you. Why aren't explosive devices legal? RPGs? Why can't an 18 year old buy a handgun? I guess guns should be used more frequently to protect against Trumpers similar to the insurrectionists.

JacksonNought replies on May 20, 2021:

@BubbaLouie well first you need to examine how the rabid pro-life crowd acts towards children who have been born. The same people trying to restrict abortion rights will then try and destroy government assistance programs which allow kids a place to live and food to eat and an education. You also have these same people cutting funding for pre-natal vitamins and other health programs meant to protect children. These people would also rather children remain in a broken foster care system, rife with abuse, instead of being adopted by a loving same-sex couple or single parent. And, as this Tweet alludes to, these people want absolutely no action to be taken regarding children being murdered in our schools and streets, shrugging it off as a small price to pay for unrestricted gun access. And then we should look at how these same people take active measures *against* scientifically-proven methods to end unwanted pregnancies and abortions. For example, most rabid pro-lifers in the US are fundamentalist Christians, who then turn around and say the only sexual education should be abstinence only, which has been proven not to work (Bristol Palin anyone?). Several states in the US have *no* regulations around sexual education, meaning children can literally be taught lies like condoms cause cancer. One-third of federal tax-payer funding for public school sex-ed funding goes to abstinence-only programs. And don't forget about corporations, which receive federal subsidies and tax-breaks at the expense of ordinary tax-payers like myself, being granted exemptions from covering birth control insurance. With all of their actions, these people do not actually care about children, they just want to control women's bodies and punish them.

JacksonNought replies on May 20, 2021:

@Rick-A again, no such thing as the "unborn". Clumps of cells do not have rights. Going back to a previous post I made, does that mean you can start getting government subsidies, tax breaks, life insurance, etc upon conception? It's funny that a group so concerned about protecting clumps of cells don't actually care about the children once they are actually alive and sentient (just look at the anti-vaxx crowd). You do realize Republicans get abortions too... right? Just look at all of those Republican "family values" officials who were caught forcing mistresses to get abortions. Yes, I do think funding stem cell research with aborted cells is perfectly fine.

You know you could just use a neutral "they" if you didn't want to assume a gender and potentially cause offense... even though I doubt she is on this site or would ever see it. Your use just comes off as mocking... which I assume is your goal. The point is the continued degradation of abortion rights, as seen just this week in Texas, as well as an upcoming Supreme Court case which could overturn Roe v Wade (yet I am sure Conservatives would not complain about "legislating from the bench" if that happened). Women's bodies are regulated continuously, yet even a thought of regulating guns is seen as the height of blasphemy. And these same men (yes, men) who sign laws to regulate women's bodies, while at the same time putting all of their effort in making sure guns are as free as possible, will turn around and tell women to smile more.

Perhaps as an Australian you aren't as well versed in the goings-on of America. This has nothing to do with Israel.

Yet when his own state was in the middle of a crisis, with dozens of his constituents dying, he decided to fly off to Cancun for vacation. So yes, he cares more about Israel than his own represented state.

As a law forcing a declaration, I feel it is really pushing against the 1A, especially the second half. What if we finally elect an Atheist president? What about polytheists?

Would you consider yourself at poverty level? Do you get government benefits like welfare? Yes, unemployment benefits right now are more than minimum wage. That is definitely a problem with the system, which is a reason wages should be higher. Removing the minimum wage altogether would be disastrous, and you would really start to see immigrants taking all of the jobs.

JacksonNought replies on May 7, 2021:

@Joehlert11 first I need to address your last comment. There is a huge huge huge difference between consenting adults (one, two, three, however many) engaging in sexual activities, despite what some might find "immoral" or weird or what-have-you... and something like rape, pedophilia, bestiality, etc. There is no slippery slope, as there is a clear-cut line you do not cross. Children and animals are incapable of consent. Allowing a person to go to a strip club or hire an escort, or even go to a swingers club and have an orgy, will not lead to pedophilia. It just won't. In fact, you could probably say quite the opposite, as the Catholic Church's celibacy policy was a factor in why so many priests molested children. With that out of the way, perhaps a better way to explain the difference in the Sex Work and Minimum Wage arguments: Critics of Sex Work say it shouldn't happen, that the entire industry should disappear. Now you will have varying degrees of this - some will be fine with exotic dancing or some will be okay with pornographic films, but typically they are always against escorts and prostitution. The critics don't say that the industry should be fixed; they never say that abuse should be addressed and properly punished or that it should be decriminalized to allow for victims to have the proper channels for safety. Critics don't want better conditions and protections or better pay for sex workers. No, critics of sex work want it to be erased completely. They call it things like "cultural defilement" or say it isn't "respectable" or try to somehow say it is related to "Marxism". They call it illegitimate work because some product wasn't "created". You also have a lot of attacks on sex workers themselves - questioning their character, degrading them, saying they either deserve abuse because they put themselves in that work or they must be some sort of slave. They even attack former sex workers, saying if they used to do it then they are deserving of what they get... though interestingly enough no critics attack Melania Trump for being a former sex worker. Now, on the other hand, critics of Low-Wage jobs don't say that the jobs should be eliminated. Critics don't attack minimum wage workers. In fact, the minimum-wage critics you describe actually *do* want to fix the industry, provide better regulations and protections for minimum-wage workers, and generally improve everything across the board. These critics don't tell people that they can't work in fast food or be custodial staff. Instead, these critics think people should be paid a living wage for their work - this so called "essential work" from the pandemic that doesn't have a livable wage right now. It's actually the critics of *raising* the minimum wage who attack the jobs and the ...

JacksonNought replies on May 7, 2021:

@Joehlert11 disagreement is fine, as long as you don't try and advocate for criminalization. For example, this may be a different category altogether, but I find organized religion to be a scourge - especially when it comes to Christianity in the US. I think the dark side and harmful nature of Christianity far outweighs the benefits. But, I would never advocate for banning or criminalizing Christianity or religion. As long as you think free people should be allowed personal freedoms, even if it means engaging in Sex Work, you can personally disagree with it and criticize the industry. I don't think Sex Work and Low-Wage Work are quite the same when facing criticism. Sure, you could make the argument that criticisms boil down to exploitation of workers, and who are we to impose restrictions on who can do what work and for how much. That is fair. However, Sex Work is typically criticized due to the prudish nature of our country and the social stigma around sex (see my earlier Christianity comments). There are some genuine people who criticize the industry based on exploitation and abuse, but the overwhelming majority of critics are only so because they want to control women's bodies and enforce their personal morals on everyone else. Low-Wage work is a bit of a different story, especially because of everything that is tied to your job in the US. When it comes to freelance work, or contractor-type work, people aren't quite as critical with wages - see being a photographer or Uber driver or something. It becomes a little different with actual full or part-time work. In the US we tie health insurance to work, so you would lose your insurance if you get fired. If we don't have some sort of regulation on wages, what is to stop a company from deciding to cut pay in half, or by 99%, because they want to make more money. You then throw workers into a tough situation where they could lose their health insurance, but also can't afford to survive with their pay. You say you and others have no problem with the system, and would be willing to work for lower wages - so now you have a work force who will gladly step in with these reduced rates, meaning the company gets to keep making its billions upon billions while the work force fights each other for who will work for less. Where do we draw the line? Should we allow slavery as long as the slave is fine with it? When a business gets to exploit public government resources to conduct itself - public roads for shipping, corporate tax breaks, public utilities, etc - the government gets to set some rules for operating, such as discrimination policies or environmental standards. I see wages as the same. I also personally think if you aren't willing to pay someone a living wage, you don't deserve to open a business in ...

JacksonNought replies on May 6, 2021:

@DaisyCousens yes, I did. Full of nonsense and typical strawmen arguments and Right-Wing buzzwords. Even speaking of "averages" you are just using anecdotal evidence. In your "commentariat" examples you aren't even comparing mainstream media anchors like CNN vs Fox News or MSNBC vs OAN - you are also pulling from a pool of random YouTubers with a low to moderate following. Abby Shapiro, are you kidding me? How about Jaclyn Glenn? Kristina Maione? Ana Kasparian? Again, you say "on average" and then use deliberate examples to try and make your point - but for every "conventionally attractive" commentator or YouTuber on the Right, you can come up with an example on the Left. Now you do cite academic studies that prove your point, you wouldn't just spout nonsense without having actually evidence to back it up. Well... you say there are studies which prove your point, and tell people to look at your description to find the sources, and then you... move on to a different topic. Of course it is YouTube, and you are trying to get clicks with your controversial title, and you wouldn't be a Right-Wing commentator without playing to your base and using a sufficient level of snark. But perhaps you could have delved into the studies more instead of using your platform to attack "non-conventionally attractive women". Maybe you could have brought up one of the points in the studies, such as the "halo effect". Yes, yes, you do reference it after your second argument, you don't really explain it properly. You say people are happier being attractive because people perceive them as better and are nicer to them, and then you end it there. You don't explain that it is defined as a cognitive bias exhibited by conventionally attractive people, because they are typically treated better in society and face less hardships, make more money, achieve higher social status, etc... and therefore they feel the world is just and fair, leading to a blind spot when trying to understand the hardships of others. They have less empathy and can be more selfish. It's like White people not facing racism so they claim there is no racism. So it seems selfishness and greed and a lack of empathy are Right-Wing characteristics, since this "halo effect" tends to push people towards Conservatism. You also use the HIMYM clip in conjunction with it... which wouldn't that mean more attractive women can get away with being crazier, and therefore you admit that you don't care about how insane a Conservative woman's views are as long as she is attractive? Hell, that is Fox News' entire business model. For your second point, you mention "mental illness" but don't delve into the details of what kind - of course so that your typical viewer can cling to their "liberalism is a mental disease" narrative and...

@FrankZeleniuk we can keep going back and forth on this, but we'll never get anywhere. You have your narrative, I have mine, and I doubt either of us will falter. No, The Satanic Temple is not an "offshoot" of Christianity - it has absolutely nothing to do with Christianity. You can claim it does, but you are wrong. Simple as that. You can use your terms like "Satanist Christian" all you want, but you are still wrong. You clearly only have the intent to mock and lie and distort, and no actual intention to listen and learn and understand. If you think some Democrats are offended or triggered by MAGA hats... hoo boy, you should see Christians and their apoplexy when it comes to Satanists being given freedoms. The Ten Commandments do not offend me, but they are illegal if placed on government property without any secular purpose or without granting other religions equal voice. You think the Ten Commandments guarantee a fair trial? "You shall have no other gods before me". "You shall not make idols". "You shall not take the name of the lord in vain". "Keep the Sabbath day holy". So if someone isn't a Christian or of an Abrahamic faith or a theist, what do these "rules" say to them? "Honor your father and mother". So if a father is on trial for raping his daughter, the daughter should honor the father and not testify? What a load of BS. Is that a fair trial? There aren't judges who put up Ten Commandment monuments - it is local governments, senators, mayors, governors, etc. Look into Jason Rapert, best bud of pedophile Josh Duggar, and his campaign for installing Christian Theocracy in Arkansas. So whole governments should recuse themselves? Sure, why not. The Christians have about 380 thousand Churches in the US, all tax-exempt land, some gigantic mega churches with private jets. And yet they need to put their religious iconography in court houses and in government and in public school - their own land isn't good enough. But as soon as another religion wants to do the same, talk about a tantrum! You don't live in the US, I guess you'll never understand. What is the point in trying to teach you when you are set in your alternative facts.

JacksonNought replies on May 4, 2021:

@FrankZeleniuk my first paragraph is not whataboutism. It is picking apart your logic. If you are completely dismissing a religion based on what a different religion thinks about it, then you must dismiss a whole host of religions. If you attack a religion because its figurehead is a controversial figure despised by a different religion, then you must attack a whole host of religions. If your logic says that Satanism is bad or a sham because it uses Satan, then you must call Christianity bad or a sham because it uses Christ. I am sure you are right, some Jews didn't accept Christ because they wanted to remain in power - just as many Christians today act in very anti-Christ-like manners to remain in power. But that doesn't change the fact that Christ claimed to be the Jewish messiah, and many Jews did not believe it, so Christ was controversial and the epitome of blasphemous to many. You say Satanists usurped a word from Christians. This is false. Satan comes from the Hebrew "adversary". The figurehead of Satanism is based more on Romantic literary depictions, such as in Milton's *Paradise Lost*. But even using Biblical interpretation, Satan can quite easily be interpreted as the hero. He is the first to fight for equal rights; the original rebel against arbitrary authority; the first to encourage critical thinking and the pursuit of knowledge over what is being spoon-fed by oppressive figures. It doesn't matter if Christians think he was evil, we do not define ourselves based on their religion. I think the god of the Bible is evil, as do many, yet that doesn't stop Jews and Christians and Muslims from basing their worldviews on serving him. No, we cannot use Loki as a figurehead - Loki is quite different in lore. So is Hades, so is Anubis, so is Ereshkigal, so is Ankou, so is Aita, so is Kalma... you get the idea. Only Satan works for our philosophy. That is like telling Christians that they are being deliberately anti-Jewish and offensively oppositional because they picked Christ as their namesake, and they should find a different name. Hey, why not just refer to them all as Catholics or Baptists or Protestants? Why do you need to invoke Christ? If you have a problem with Satanists for this reason, you must have a problem with Christians for the same. Religion doesn't need to worship a higher power. Religion can be non-theistic. The best definitions are: > 1. a specific fundamental set of beliefs and practices generally agreed upon by a number of persons or sects > > 2. the body of persons adhering to a particular set of beliefs and practices Secular Humanism is a non-theistic religion. Unitarian Universalism is non-theistic. Quakers are non-theistic. Scientology is non-theistic. Confucianism is non-theistic. Buddhism is mostly non-theistic. ...

JacksonNought replies on May 4, 2021:

@FrankZeleniuk so then what Jesus means to Jews matters too, isn't that the same logic? Judaism existed for thousands of years, and Christians stole the idea of the Messiah and corrupted it for their purposes. They could have stayed with Judaism but it was thought better to call it something that would spit in the face of the Jews. Why don't we criticize Christians for this offense with the same frequency as we do Satanists? Satanism is a religion, not an anti-religion. Religion doesn't have to be theistic or bound to a higher authority - there are plenty of non-theistic religions. One important aspect, especially in the US, is for pluralism and equality. Satanists aren't trying to remove all religion from the country or even the public square, but they are trying to prevent favoritism (which always ends up being for Christianity) and allowing true pluralism to be practiced in a country in which the very first of our rights is pluralism. The US isn't allowed to pick and choose which religions are valid or deserving of equal rights, yet that often happens in practice anyway. Satanism is actually more American than Christianity if Christianity doesn't follow our Constitution. It is a religion, so why shouldn't it have the same equality? Again, Satanists are Satanists because they are Satanists. It isn't the same as Secular Humanism. That's like saying why is there Christianity and not just Judaism, or why are there three big Abrahamic religions and not just one all-encompassing religion to worship the Abrahamic god? Why are there Protestants and LDS and Catholics and Baptists, why couldn't they all pick the same one?

JacksonNought replies on May 4, 2021:

@FrankZeleniuk yes, I am a member / follower of The Satanic Temple, but not in any official capacity. It is a global organization with chapters all over the world and in the US, with the headquarters located in Salem, Massachusetts. And yes, it is officially recognized in the US as a tax-exempt religion, meaning it is granted all of the official federal rights and protections of other mainstream religions. It is not just an "organization" - it is a religion. And the purpose of the religion is no different than any other religion - a sense of community, an ethos to live by, an understanding of the world, etc. To be clear, though, it is a non-theistic religion. TST has no belief in an actual Satan, no belief in any gods, and no belief in supernaturalism. It is not much different than Secular Humanism. Does it really matter how other people perceive "Satan" or "Satanic"? Our values and beliefs are out there for anyone to see - anything else you use to define us is merely a strawman and fear mongering. To Jews, Jesus was one of the worst heretics to ever live. He broke the main Commandments and put himself equal to God, and blasphemed in claiming he was the Messiah. He specifically tried to change the rules, claiming Old Testament restrictions no longer applied. He was nothing more than a false prophet leading people away from true salvation - that is how Jews see him. In the old days, as far as Jews were concerned, Jesus was no different than someone like Sun Myung Moon. So, should we attack Christians for using the name Christ? Should we attack Christians for deliberately using a controversial figure, seemingly to offend Jewish people? Should we claim Christians are evil for idolizing a figure which Jews consider sinful? Well, that is no different than Satanists, and the claims Christians (and others, but mostly Christians) levy against Satanists. It doesn't matter how others define Satan, or what they think or claim. All that matters is how Satanists define Satan, and what they believe. It has nothing to do with antagonizing Christians, any more than Christians exist to antagonize Jews. To us, it couldn't be anything other than Satan, so to tell us we should pick a different name or a different definition is nothing more than religious bigotry. Here we go again with the "Marxist" bogyeman, without actually knowing the real definition. It seems you don't actually understand some of the works of The Satanic Temple, you just let others spoon-feed you a narrative.

@FrankZeleniuk > Trump is more like the politician the founders describe. Being a politician is suppose to be a temporary burden, as you say. He stepped in because he saw the country drifting toward becoming a socialist state. Bullshit. The Founders wanted any regular person to be able to run for office (well, really just white Christian men, but that's a topic for another time). The Founders didn't want you to have to be rich to afford a campaign. The Founders didn't want you to profit off of politics. Jimmy Carter was a good example - you can criticize his politics, but sold his peanut farm to avoid any conflicts of interest or appearances that he'd benefit from office. Trump didn't run because he thought he had to sacrifice himself for the benefit of the country. He rose to political prominence and became a Republican darling by lying for 8 years about Obama's birth certificate and Tweeting non-stop attacks on the administration - issues he never seemed to have a problem with when he was acting as president. Trump did not divest from his companies, he continued to make money from the office. He golfed more (on average) than any other president, going to his own resorts and forcing the Secret Service to stay at increased rates, costing the taxpayers millions of dollars which went right into his pocket. He violated the Emoluments Clause by keeping a hotel in DC which he encouraged foreign visitors to stay at, again getting personal monetary benefits from his position. He tried to move the G7 summit to his personal resort, again trying to get monetary benefit from his position. He forced through security clearances for his family (against the recommendations of federal intelligence officials) so that he could install them as advisors and give them a federal paycheck. His administration consistently violated the Hatch Act to promote brands owned by Trump and his family (like Ivanka's clothing line). He leveraged his position to force through Chinese patents for Ivanka. He cut taxes for his wealthy friends, personally benefitting himself. He installed lobbyists and loyalists into Cabinet positions so he could get away with violating rules and engaging in corruption. Hell, he even used campaign contributions to his "Election Defense Fund" to pay off his personal debts. And yeah, I know, he donated his actually presidential salary. Well why wouldn't he? That made it a tax write off, and so he could continue to exploit the system to only pay $750 a year. America was not becoming a Socialists state, at least not anymore than it already was with Socialist programs like Social Security, Medicare, Police & Fire, etc. Socialism is nothing but a Republican bogeyman buzzword, one they like to fear-monger with to get more money and votes.

@FrankZeleniuk do you have the same criticisms of the former office holder then? For claiming to "love America" and wanting to defend the Constitution, but clearly doing the exact opposite with his actions? Given the choice between the two, did you think the former was more qualified and should have won? Of the two, who do you think follows the Constitution more? Are you actually well versed in the Constitution living in Canada? The original post was that Biden claimed the government was the people, not some distant powerful unmovable force. It was followed up with hashtags about "fascism". The original post had no further context, nothing about motives or actions or anything, just that the statement on its face was fascist. And the OP is a noted troll who consistently plagiarizes content. And you are both from Canada. Food for thought. Now I don't necessarily agree with Biden here. I mean I do in theory, as that is the intention of the Constitution and DoI, but that isn't the reality in practice anymore. The point of public office was to be a temporary inconvenience - a necessary burden. The point of being the president or being in elected office was to put aside your life for a short time to serve the greater good, a noble sacrifice. But in modern times it has become a full career path for people to make rules to favor themselves and enwealthen themselves, to control the masses and gain power. The USA is basically a combination of oligarchy, plutocracy, and theocracy. Just look at the stranglehold Mitch McConnell holds over the country. What does "fundamentally transform America" mean? I don't know, maybe ask Biden? Look at his policy and platform to see. Maybe he wants to go back to the old days of government... but probably not. I interpret it as making progress to get America back on the right track, expand civil rights and freedoms, get our infrastructure and economy back in order, trust in science and make moves to end the pandemic and combat global warming. What do you think Trump and his party meant by "Make America Great Again" or "Take Our Country Back"? Were they saying it wasn't great? Take it back from whom? To when?

Imagine being so biased in your views that you are against someone reiterating the Founders "of the people, by the people, for the people" sentiments. But I guess I wouldn't expect a Canadian troll to understand nor care.

@FrankZeleniuk the original criticism is that he quoted the Constitution and that was somehow "fascist". Asking what underlying meaning or ulterior motive he had is moving the goalposts. Remember the alternative, Trump, who thought he could do "whatever he wanted". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sl_gO3uOds8 He continually shredded the Constitution for his own personal gain. I'm willing to given Biden the benefit of the doubt, considering the last disaster.

In general, putting aside the question of who's right or wrong between Republicans and Democrats, it is an undisputable truth that Democrats are attention hogs. Selfish narcissists. Stage hogs. They out-scream their foes. If anyone that disagrees with them dares take the stage, they attack ...

JacksonNought replies on Apr 29, 2021:

Since we are talking about one side not understanding the other... I could say exactly what you said, but about Republicans instead. The entire Republican party and platform is currently based around Trump, a man who is one of the most narcissistic attention-hungry media whores in modern history. Prominent members of the Republican party like to go on rants about nothing so that they can pull sound bites and throw it on Twitter and go on Fox News to pat themselves on the back and "own the libs" and lie. Nothing but attention hogs. Republicans build up strawmen to attack Democrat policies without every actually caring what they are. Marjorie Taylor Greene attacked AOC over her Green New Deal bill, then admitted she never read it. This weekend Fox News railed for hours about Biden's attempts to ban red meat, but then had to come out with a retraction when it was pointed out that they misunderstood a random college study that had nothing to do with Biden or his policies. Constantly you will see Republicans call Democrats godless and evil (even though their are no Atheist congressmen) and they like to float Q conspiracies about Satanic cabals eating babies. Republicans do nothing but lie about Democrats and insult them and speak over them. They don't care to understand the other side at all. Republicans would rather have special exemption to the rules, and won't agree to anything unless their demands are met 100%. They are not team players. They would rather shut the country down rather than allow any Democrat policy to see the light of day.

@Rick-A sorry, I've never taken drugs in my life. You'll need to find another insult excuse. I never said Biden isn't a perv. He just isn't a pedo. But once again, Trump literally *admitted* he was a pedo. And @2peros here is defending him. I guess all pedos look out for each other.

@Rick-A Trump admitted to being a pedo. Since you are so keen on defending him, I'll just assume you are one too. Have fun hanging out with Gaetz.

JacksonNought replies on Apr 28, 2021:

@Rick-A is Biden a pedo? No, I do not believe so. A creepy old man, sure, but not a pedo. Trump was an admitted pedo. He literally admitted it. So, given the choice between the two, I am certainly happy Biden is in charge now. A creepy old man is better than a pedo. The only reason people are trying to accuse Biden of being a pedo or having dementia these days is to try and distract from the fact that their Cheeto Jesus, who they still think has a chance to take over any day now, was a dementia-riddled pedo.

I suppose the next step in "progress" is defunding the court system. What could possibly go wrong.

JacksonNought replies on Apr 24, 2021:

@wolfhnd never said anything about Trump and Russia, you just have no defense other than accusing other people of things. The Republicans blocked Obama's nominee with almost a year left, allowing Trump to have a vacancy. Then when RBG died, in the middle of an actual election, they rammed through a confirmation.

Nah, but maybe the next step is expanding the court to undo the nominations Trump stole.
