Why not start a thread about that? Oh if only Honor and Res and Cam were here to properly propagandize us. I guess if there isn't any incentive, propaganda fades away.
You do fine being overly emotional without anyone’s help, Exiled. Your apoplectic reactions to my posts, which are little different from the tenor and intensity of most people who follow the news and are deeply and justifiably concerned about the prospects for our democratic republic during and after (knock on wood) Trump, make that very clear.

“Dear me! What to do? Kish is not buying my special brand of next-level whataboutist wisdom!”

Also, I haven’t noticed that you are immune to propaganda. You just swallow different strains of it.

You’re going to make those incorrigible brats who are always whining about needing a national divorce unhappy with that kind of talk, ajax.

I’m confused. Are you putting those words in Ajax’s mouth for humorous purposes?

I'll be satisfied when there's a thorough investigation of democrat lawfare, democrat politicians are held accountable, and it becomes clear that efforts to subvert the will of the majority through such means can never happen again. Those who can't get onboard with ending partisan political weaponization of the criminal justice system should self deport. Afuera izqierdistas! Afuera!
So, in other words, you want the Trump administration and GOP congresspersons to self deport. After all, they are some of the worst perpetrators of lawfare, phony investigations that waste taxpayer money, etc. But, OK. I don't think they are going to listen to you.

It feels like the entire GOP sentiment these days is self-pity and blaming immigrants for their own problems and incompetency.

Is there really more to it than that?
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.

Just a couple of weeks ago, Trump signed actual executive orders targeting at least two people for not agreeing with his BS about a ‘stolen election’.

And this is obviously insane. But it is just another day in dystopian, looney-tunes Trump America.

I guess a good way of demonstrating left-leaning people didn't care about Biden's violations of the law, due process, and the human dignity of others, is by sharing links from a liberal organization showing they cared about Biden's violations of the law, due process, and the human dignity of others.

Incidentally, (going from memory, so beware) I believe the ACLU had indicated it was planning on suing over the border bill's section regarding removing judicial oversight for people apprehended at the border, if it passed.

Personally, if me not spending a lot of time posting about why I disagree with Biden, and the problems I saw with his application of immigration, the Gaza war, etc., but me spending a lot of time posting about Trump sending innocent people to a torture prison for life, makes me a hypocrite. Then I'm pretty ok with being a hypocrite.

For reference, what's the ratio of criticizing Biden before I'm allowed to talk about Trump having a dude that was chemically castrating children without a medical license to "treat" autism heading up the nation's study on autism? Surely chemically castrating children is at least a step above sending adults to a torture prison? Or no? Do I need to talk about how gross of a precedent Biden pardoning his own son was, before I'm allowed to point out that a person pretending to be a doctor, chemically castrating kids, probably isn't the most qualified person to head up a study about those same kids?

ETA (came back to re-proofread this, and wow):
I'm sorry for the above. I don't know why I went of the crotchety rails there. I think life was already percolating some rawrh-rawrh, and for whatever reason, this thread became an outlet.

I would like to add something. Biden did quite a bit wrong. Obama was scores (and I mean scores) worse. The GAO report that was done under Biden showed just how pervasive the problem of arresting, and deporting Americans was under Obama. He also laid much of the framework that Trump tried to use (and Miller says they will use) to revoke peoples' citizenship. That said, both Obama and Biden combined can't hold a candle to the nuclear fission of madness, and abject cruelty that is Trump. I imagine that after Trump's first time, the things Biden was doing were so far from being as horrendous as Trump, that it was easy for there to be a halo effect. If you are forced to eat ten thousand pounds of doo-doo, it's kind of easy to eat a couple grams without feeling outraged.

Kiskumen you clearly hate the 51% of us who voted for Trump. You think your life would be better if we weren't in your country. So why wouldn't you want a national divorce? But even you don't rise to the level of Schmo, who like many latinos and foreigners I've seen abroad who hate the US, it's history, it's culture, it's religion, it's language, and the majority of it's people. And yet he won't live anywhere else. I couldn't pay him enough to leave.
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.
