upsets them far more than the pride flag (which they have never even acknowledged and don't care about at all).


They don’t care about homosexuals, they throw them off buildings

Taliban leaders are upholding their word (for now) and are allowing our citizens and allies to evacuate without aggression. If I'm wrong, please let me know.


Well outside of the people drug into the streets and shot it’s been mostly peaceful.

This has been all over the news. Have you not turned on the Tv today or gone on the internet?

I agree. Only problem is the line of succession is clear. This is who’s third on line if Biden & Harris were to step down.


While both aren’t going to step down, the good news is I don’t think Nancy has any desire to be President. If they agreed to step down, you’d have Kamala as President while the new VP is confirmed, and then she steps down. If this happens (it won’t), I find Michael Bloomberg to be the most likely person to become President since I don’t think either side would flip their shite if that happened and he’s the Establishment.

Tweet from yet another interpreter (interpreters are likely to be one of the most targeted under Taliban rule):

I went to Kabul airport with my phone given to my mom due to Taliban checkpoint searches and when got to the gate, Saw Taliban waiting for me, If I had said I am an interpreter, they would have killed me. No evacuation plan for us. #USbetrayedus.

No we just want people to show up to the voting booth with an ID to prove who they are. If you think minorities are too stupid to figure this out, you a white supremacist. frick you.
100% agree. Why are we talking about this in a thread about thousands of American citizens stranded in a hostile foreign country?

So you asking about the pride flag--and me poo-poo-ing it--means I started a discussion about the pride flag?


Literally none of that statement makes any sense whatsoever, nor is it an accurate depiction of what happened.

Keep showing everyone how stupid you are and why you shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

Sexual contact between older men and younger boys is more common in extremist Islam than in any western religion.


Somewhat true. But they don’t look at that as being gay and it doesn’t soften the view of gayness. They still throw homos off buildings.

I’ve seen criticism of Biden all over the media, including CNN. Sure, the media all too often carries water for Biden, but that hasn’t really been the case today. I’m sure it will revert, but there is no reason to say it is silent just to perpetuate a meme or narrative. It simply isn’t true.

Bull shite. Watch MSNBC, they have yet to mention Biden’s name in 2 hours.

This pretty much what we have with Biden. Anyone with a passing knowledge of history knows what I’m talking about.

Refreshing change. A media that holds our leaders (Left and Right) accountable.

When they put this comment on 24 hour blast then I will agree with this.

Until then...

They’re in a holding pattern until they receive their talking points from the DNC.

Are you telling me I equate logic/reason with feelings more than you do, when I’ve commented once, and you’re in here dozens of times telling people they for sure vote with their feelings?

Jesus, you’re delusional

Broadcast TV didn't exist till the 50s, so no.

We can be critical while still being honest.

He's trying to derail the thread. When someone brings out the "whataboutism", they are trying to kill a thread.

That comment has been all over the media today? Both electronic and television? My cursory searches only found the Washington Post incorporating that quote into a news story.

None of what you posted indicates my post was bullshite.

The claim was the “media was silent.”

The media, even media that often covers for Biden, has been anything but silent. They’ve been very critical of Biden today.
