I highly doubt as things stand at the moment there will be anyone other than those two.

I have been known to be wrong in the past mind you.

Watch the Movie Idiocracy.
We are not all that far away from that!

And I'd think you have the same problem in Your Country Markus.
Not like you all have Great Leaders getting elected.
Just like the USA? They sell out and lie to you for their own interests.

We have indeed. That's one of the reason why I do not vote-Haven't been voting since 2002.

I have a sign that says
"Politicians trespassing here will be shot on sight. Then shot 5 more times to be sure they are dead!"

Because those with a more recent and "leftist" education are an even worse choice.

From my perspective, both party extremes do not want educated people that might actually read past the headlines and use some critical thinking skills.

One of the saddest things for me is the far right MAGA party acts more like a Communist party striving to exert control over business, education and behavior. These people are not conservatives any longer! You see the Democratic party now being the conservatives resisting the radical ideas coming from MAGA.

You had me wholly agreeing with you on the first sentence then I lost you when you hopped on the partisan crazy train again.

All you need to do is look at the attacks on Anheuser-Busch and Disney, the banning of books from schools, the attacks on women's rights and attacks on the LGBTQ community.

Jeff-Groves · 09-04-23, 02:42 PM

Perfect example of "If you don't drink the same kool-aid I do? Your wrong."

Last I checked I had the FREE choice not to drink a certain Beer. Now you and your kind want to brand us as evil.
Don't have anything against the LGBTQ except having it shoved in my face. I have lesbian friends and a best friend was Bi.
My Bi friend died years ago and I still miss him. You don't get friends like him but maybe a couple times in Life.
Disney is just Politicians playing a Game for suckers. Don't care about that at all.

No books should ever be banned. Period!

No, you are free to believe how you want to, but don't try to make me live by your beliefs through telling me what I can't do or read. If you don't want to see it, or read it, act like a small government conservative and don't.

Jeff-Groves · 09-04-23, 03:00 PM

And there we go with the name calling.
Last resort of the desperate.

And no one told you to believe as I do. But you can't understand that can you?

What name calling? I'm not even angry, just debating.

When MAGA tries to legislate one set of unpopular ethics on the whole country I am being told what to do.

EDIT: My bad grammar. I didn't mean the word you to mean you personally, I was thinking of it as when one does something. Sorry about that.

Jeff-Groves · 09-04-23, 03:17 PM

I'd love to engage in a further battle of wits.
But I refuse to fight with an unarmed opponant.

Anyone that is comitted to only one side? Well, nuff said.
Anyone that does not agree with this side or that side? Again you've said enuff.

You obviously decided you are ONLY interested in one side. Nothing I could say would have you look at me any differently. You've commited to your views.

And that OK by me. Your allowed to do that and I served to protect that Right.
I was one of those people that would have died protecting your rights.
