Pick a thread. There are a hundred topics that are countered to leftist thought.

I don’t think either of you are religious (my apologies if I’m incorrect).
But I’m going to pray for you tonight anyway—that you find discernment and follow your convictions, whatever those may be.
Not exactly sure why, but your struggle(s) are weighing on my heart.

Trust your gut, and take care of you and yours.

I haven’t watched Tucker in a while. But the last two nights I have. The only way to beat the mob is to stand up face to face with it.

And that is a scary thing to do in today’s world.

Tim Poole said the same thing days before Tucker did. But that’s the only way to bring the mob down.

Shine light on them.

Moderation is all anyone should ask for. I don't expect, nor want, everyone to agree with me on everything. I come up with some dumb shite sometimes and need a counterpoint to call me out. So good for you for taking a stand against extremism regardless of the origination.

The point is that when I come to you and say okay I’m ready to talk, and you essentially tell me to go frick myself in response, you’re unlikely to win me over.

I get that people in here are upset that you didn't see this path a LOOOOOOOONG time ago, but it is good to see that you are capable of getting out of the groupthink.

That shite is a powerful drug. Took me a while to not be a Leftist too.

Maybe that’s naive of me but I cannot and I will not go down the road the far left is taking us.


If you truly mean that, then you should never pull the lever for a Democrat again. The far left owns the democrats party and they aren’t going to slow down or reverse course. Vote republican, vote independent, vote for whoever the hell you feel like, but don’t proclaim you cannot and will not go down the road the left is taking us and then pull the lever for someone with a D by their name.

You haven’t voted in a local election yet, have you?

Hopefully, most of the 12,000,000 teenagers that came of voting age since the last election will take the vacant place you left on the democratic rolls.

The good career politicians are very few and far between. When I look at a candidate; if they’ve been in office for over a decade; it makes me stop and look more carefully.

I get the point and I'm kinda fricking with you. I'm just saying that from the OP, you're having trouble letting go of some root beliefs that have been lies (to some extent or another).

This is my issue with the left as well, you are not the arbiter of what is true and what’s a lie. I can think for myself.

Then that’s a start. You have to figure out what vision you think is best for the country and pick your candidates accordingly. However, if you feel that the road the left is traveling is a bridge too far, I suggest you find a few candidates traveling in the opposite direction and aren’t he’ll bent on driving us all over a cliff

Sounds like he took the red pill to me. Let it kick in. Sometimes smoking a joint helps kick it in, man.

Which is why the voting age should be 30... teenager's brains aren't fully developed... talk to a 16yo... they're essentially mentally retarded... literally and biologically

More than likely if you’re waiting for me to be a full blown conservative you’re going to be waiting a long time, but that doesn’t mean I support what the left is doing, either.
