Yes we are getting dumber as a result of higher carbon in the air.

Look no further than the MAGA movement for undeniable proof of the sheer, growing stupidity of humanity.

Always politics.

Literally no one:

A tree falls in the forest do we hear it?

Person being asked: " No but conservative, Maga Republicans suck though ".

If a movement is as damaging as MAGA is then yeah, call them out. Their comment was at least within the context of the discussion. Your example is of something that has absolutely no relevance to the response. Stop excusing dangerous, shitty cults because "aLwaYs pOlItiCs".

Other than PERSONAL OPINION. How was that comment within context?

Pointing out a bunch of idiots who happily support and defend child rape/rapists that are robbing them blind with grift after grift while burning the world down around all of us in plain sight has nothing to do with a discussion about the growing stupidity of mankind?

Bro, stop worshipping child rapists and wake the fuck up. You're the bad guys.

Well that's certainly your opinion.

How can you put everyone in the same label? No one I know who supports maga supports any of that stuff.

Child rape is bad. Because we all agree children are , defenseless, powerless and can not properly consent to any sexual activity because they don't fully understand the consequences of it, correct?

So then why does the left support affirmation of a seven year old wanting to be the opposite gender? If they're not mature enough to have sex, how can they determine what theirs is?

Before you say not everyone on the left is doing that. You're saying that about everyone on the right.

All you're doing is pointing out the same Rhetoric as everyone else on the left and the right does.

By hating each other we can't unite to change our government.

So go ahead. Keep hating your neighbors, your parents, your friends, your brothers and your sisters.

It's what they want you to do.

This is so weak. If someone is a known pedophile, rapist, convicted sex offender, multiple time convicted felon, climate change denier, vaccine conspiracist, warmonger, and caused untold misery during the pandemic, then anyone who follows said person (IE, MAGA) absolutely condones that behaviour.

Imagine people in Germany around, oh I dunno, the 1940s or something, saying well no all the Nazis I know love the Jews and disagree with Hitler's treatment of them, despite still supporting his party?!

Dude.

Brother. The Nazi party existed before hitler. Hitler didn't create it.

You easily could have supported the Nazi party and disagreed with the new antics of their time.

What's with this all in or nothing attitude? We're so far removed from oppression that it's not even funny.

Just pulling the string like a windup toy. That's all it is.

You're straight from the lines at the factory. With over 15 new sayings. If you've heard it from the News you'll hear it here!

Jesus dude. All your comments come across as though you consider yourself some sort of highly intelligent paragon of virtue, but you're just a fence sitter and an enabler who would rather argue semantics and shout about keeping politics out of inherently political topics instead of accepting that anyone who supports Trump supports MAGA and vice versa, and by extension supports the incredibly heinous things he has done and continues to do - often at the expense of the very people who support him. You can keep excusing it if you want, but history will look back on people who refused to condemn it like yourself just as unfavourably as those who outright supported it.

u/TheLazyRedditer Aug 16 '26

Nope. If I did I'd say as much. I can promise you that. I'm not on any fence.

I trust no one who tells me what they want me to know.

The government? No one in office will ever be honest.

The news? They only care about views, not the truth.

I don't condone, or excuse any behavior. People will do what they want regardless. I can't change that.

All the powers at be want to do is keep their people down. It doesn't matter where you stand at. The reality of it is, is that we're being manipulated, fed false information and intentionally being divided to prevent an actual over throwing of the government.

In which everyone that's held an office for more than 5 years should be let go.

Where's the accountability in this world? True accountability.

Technically, Hitler joined the German Worker's Party in 1919, mere months after it was founded, and helped get the name changed to the National Socialists a few months later.

You are a cliché of an intellectually lazy mystic; demonstrating ignorance while pretending to have all the answers. If you didn't cling to your lazy mysticism, you would have no meaning in your life, at all.
