You're saying we should blame brown people for Trump? I suppose its lucky for you he's rounding them all up and making them disappear so they shouldn't cause you or Israel any problems next election.
No wonder everything is going to hell if people cannot even understand what it means to be done working through shit...
If they were done working through shit then there wouldn't be any problems left to write a TV show about. What you're describing is one group of people being superior to another and that superior group swooping in to save the day much like the way America has viewed itself historically.
Thats all you have to respond with? If you want to talk about cause and effect, lets talk about the effect of Democrats leading the country like neglectful parents causing Trump to get elected as president twice. Let's talk about how meaningless lip service leads to resentment from the populace and Democrats becoming unelectable.
Congratulations on your list, but this isnt the first time I've seen someone make a list of meaningless nonsense while pretending like it was revolutionary activism.
Wow he pardoned 2500 people with federal marijuana convictions despite none of those people actually being in prison and despite marijuana remaining illegal federally.
Wow he forgave some student loans despite doing nothing to reduce the actual cost of college.
Wow he protected LGBT servicemembers and yet they're being thrown out of the military once again.
Wow he strengthened relations with Japan despite all of our allies hating us now.
Wow he increased funding for green energy despite that money just going to wealthy companies who didn't need handouts in the first place.
We'll certainly need to put Joe Biden's name down right alongside FDR and Abraham Lincoln as one of the most impactful presidents in US history because from January 2021 to January 2025, the country was a real utopia based on that extensive list.
Right. Democrats are the good guys because they say nice things on TV. It doesn't matter that they vote with Republicans more often than not and do absolutely nothing to right the ship because Republicans are clearly the bad guys and by comic book movie logic, Democrats must be the good guys.
We must support them despite the mountains of evidence showing that they don't give a shit about any of us and have no intention of making things better. Don't trust your eyes and ears. Trust faith and belief.
As well as decades of propaganda to convince people that either party existed to help the country rather than themselves. Things have gotten so extreme because both parties have burned through all their more moderate excuses for why they can't make things better so now they've upped the ante and continue with the same song and dance.
Agreed. DSC was filled with superficial Mary Sue slop. All anyone ever needed to overcome their problem was a cookie-cutter motivational speech from Burnham, while inspirational music played and the camera slowly panned across every crew members face as they smiled and gave a nod of approval.
It is cringy because it's like a virtue signaling characature of "wokeness" along the same vein as "after-school TV specials" or Christian evangelist movies of decades past. There's no depth or substance just endless variations of "there's no problem that can't be solved with a hug."
It's supposed to be a time after humanity has dealt with all of the stupid in-fighting and conservative BS. It's supposed to be about a time when the drama doesn't come from inside the house. When humanity is exploring the stars, not having a moment.
And yet all the drama is derived directly from real world human issues, so what makes a difference between Starfleet characters creating it or some fictional alien race? The latter too closely resembles "American exceptionalism" by acting like Starfleet always has all the answers and can do no wrong and these uncultured foreign aliens need to bend to our will in order to solve their problems. I don't see that being super appealing considering everything that is happening currently.
Not true on paper but true in practice. Most people don't buy/use Blurays (or any other physical media) anymore to the point that retailers aren't even bothering to stock them on the shelves these days. Their days are certainly numbered and then all we'll be left with is low quality 4k streaming.
Are those people being served well by furthering the Republican agenda at every turn? You act like its an acceptable to lose this battle to "win the war" but it turns out they're losing every single battle which seems almost intentional at this point. Sacrificing the American people to maintain their own career isn't much of a selling point.
The Dems were also determined to make it as bad as they could so that it wouldn't affect their donors or rock the boat in any way. That's why they used Mitt Romneys healthcare plan to "gain bipartisan support" despite it not being needed with zero Republicans voting for it.
We could have had single-payer but instead we're left with largely the same model we had prior except now more of our tax dollars get funneled to insurance companies in the name of "subsidized healthcare."
We have a gun to our head because we have two parties that are complicit in making it that way. If they had a majority theyd be feeding you a different excuse about how "now is not the time for rocking the boat. Its a time to reach across the aisle and heal the country" as they pass more bills giving Republicans everything they want. It's as if your memory only convers the last two weeks of events and you buy all the empty gestures and lip service told to you.
It's pretty sad that this is the most convincing argument a Democratic supporter can come up with. "We won't shoot you in the head (but we'll let other people do it)" is all they're willing to offer and you still argue that they deserve anything from us.
