The Real timschochet

OK- but you may not be seeing this as part of a bigger picture, which is this: Trump is trying to establish authoritarianism and thus is part of it. Whatever bad things Democrats and Republicans have done before (and they have) what Trump is doing is worse. That’s why he needs to be opposed.

Thank you. Finally. it’s not unprecedented. Liberals have tried it. Conservatives have tried it. It’s wrong every time- IF the government is involved. If the government is not involved I don’t care.

You certainly hate a lot of people.

Yes it is. The difference is that this firing was prodded by the government. Why is this so difficult for you guys to understand this?

I thought I already did this. Didn’t I start a whole thread about it?

Yeah sure. Also: crazy rhetoric about Covid, like yours, is what caused the shootings at the CDC and the death of this police officer. That is on YOU: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/amp/nation/shooter-attacked-cdc-headquarters-to-protest-covid-19-vaccines-authorities-say

Sorry when you hire incompetents the blame is on you. And yes children are at risk: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/sep/17/rfk-jr-senate-hearing-cdc-susan-monarez

That would be the guy you elected to be our President and the incompetent people he’s appointed. And now it’s putting our children at risk and it’s your fault. Congrats?

From Louisiana. Of course. Reminds me of those judges in the 50s and 60s from there who were always sentencing Klansmen to no prison time and blacks to life sentences. Looks like not much has changed.

Biggest news of the day and nobody here comments. Not that I’m surprised. You guys should be totally ashamed and embarrassed. (In case you’re wondering who “you guys” are: Trump supporters.)

And people wonder why the internet is regarded as a cesspool.

So what? He could have and Trump was totally classless as usual.

How did Trump react when John McCain died? Didn’t he whine about all the attention being paid to McCain? Guy is a scumbag.

Your agreement with him only strengthens my conviction that the opposite is true. (Though, honestly, I don’t really expect you to understand the details anyhow.)

I haven’t seen much squirming and as usual the whining is coming from the right.

Not surprised you think this, but you’re wrong, both about your prediction and about what I want.

Hey dude your responses to my posts are as tiresome to me as I apparently am to you. Focking put me on ignore already. But stop whining.

Which is what should happen. The problem here is that the FCC got involved don’t you agree?

Are you trolling now? When did I say or even imply that we need to copy everything Denmark does?

Dude. I agree with you most of the time as you know but this….over the top.

Did the FCC push for Alex Jones to be removed?

These represent my exact thoughts. During the McCarthy era, the problem wasn’t with Hollywood studios deciding on their own to have a blacklist against Communists- they were private companies and that was their right and in fact it was good business. The problem was the FBI was involved putting pressure on the studios to fire certain people. That’s why it was wrong. Government shouldn’t be playing a part in this stuff. When it does freedom of speech really IS threatened.

I would eliminate or seriously limit all sales taxes as well, and tax the wealthy more. Make things as cheap as possible for the consumer. Grow the economy from the bottom up.

None of those reasons have anything to with why we can’t be like Denmark on this ONE issue. Let me be more specific; let’s increase spending on the safety net by 20-50% in an attempt to eliminate poverty. We can find the money by raising taxes on the top 1% of earners and eliminating all tariffs (so as to grow the economy.) Eliminate minimum wage and invite open immigration. Spend massive amounts in the inner city (way more than we ever have) and work on eliminating institutional racism. These measures would lead to a prosperous, capitalist society without socialism. Why not?
