Last post by Abbot Mythos - Yesterday at 08:18:57 AMQuote from: Faust on Yesterday at 07:43:16 AMTruth social, r/conservative they are all complaining about the tarrifs but saying their king is "doing well overall"Then, perhaps you may agree with the following quotation:
They will overlook almost any transgressions or criticise it but still give unwavering support, if they go into the next election like this it will play out the exact same as the last one
"It was Bill Clinton who once pithily captured the contrast between the two parties when it came to selecting a presidential standard-bearer: "Democrats want to fall in love; Republicans just fall in line."

Last post by Abbot Mythos - Yesterday at 02:18:47 AMQuote from: Faust on November 16, 2025, 08:14:57 PMI've been taking a look at conservative spaces because I'm interested to see what their opinion of the last year has been like and I've come to a realisation, they are divided on a lot of issues, critical of things like the tarrifs or this 2000 rebate they are planning.Your perception of 'Merica's two (2) major political parties is vastly different from mine. So, I have to ask, what "conservative spaces" are you trusting to be accurate sources of information?
The thing is they are willing to compromise as long as some or most of their issues are addressed.
The left with its ever tightening purity tests or moral outrage instead of criticism of their own parties never stood a chance in the last election, and it won't in the next either unless it takes a mature approach to selecting and supporting a candidate

Last post by Abbot Mythos - November 16, 2025, 06:06:33 AMRise of the robots: The promise of physical AI
As per this article:
"Tech firms are pouring massive sums into physical AI, and Morgan Stanley predicts the world could have more than a billion humanoid robots by 2050."
It looking like the Model T-800 series will soon be available for Skynet's future use.

As per this article:
"Paul Ingrassia, the Trump administration official who allegedly sent a series of racist and antisemitic texts, moves into a new role as deputy general counsel at the General Services Administration after withdrawing his nomination to lead the Special Counsel office. Dana Bash and the plugged-in political reporters on "Inside Politics" discuss."
Well ... it is, after all, the Turd Reich.

Trump-Epstein 'Best Friends Forever' Statue Reappears In DC After Bombshell Emails
Anonymous activists are back with their statue, which the Trump administration previously damaged, to satirically honor the men's "long-lasting bond."
And, the timing couldn't be better. It's hard to keep a good resistance down.

Last post by Abbot Mythos - November 13, 2025, 02:30:46 PMThis battle is over. The Greedy Oligarchy Party (GOP) won.
There will be more skirmishes between now and Tuesday, November 3rd, 2026. But, that's the must-win battle (MWB) to save our republic. This war is not over.

Aneristic Illusions / Re: Regarding 'Merica's Actual...
Last post by Abbot Mythos - November 13, 2025, 12:25:58 AMI believe this is one of the better articles about why the Dems caved, and permitted The Big Beautiful 2025 US Government Shutdown to end with a whimper:
Why Democrats Finally Caved In The Government Shutdown Fight
Donald Trump was willing to make millions of people suffer. Democrats didn't have the stomach for it.
As per this article:
"Democrats walked away with the promise of a symbolic vote on health care that's almost certain to fail, no extension for enhanced subsidies for people enrolled in the Affordable Care Act, and no guardrails to stop Trump from ignoring the law and withholding more funds passed by Congress. Their hope now is to count on a public backlash to Trump's ruthlessness next November."
Now, a lot can happen between now and January 30, 2026, when another continuing resolution (CR) must be approved to fund our government. But, I agree. Unless the "public backlash to Trump" is at Category 5/DEFCON 2 by then, I do not expect the Dems to force another shutdown.
And so, as of right now, it appears that the Dems only "strategy" is to attempt to encourage a substantial majority of Americans to vote in their own best interests on Tuesday, November 3rd, 2026.
