Somebody broke Rusty.

Low-intelligence voters will buy it, though. It's joyful! Just from a practical standpoint, how would that possibly work? Would we have a Dairy Czar, Meat Czar, Packaged Shiot That's Terrible For You Czar? And these czars determine an acceptable price for tens of thousands of goods? Just think of milk, and all of the exceptions: fat content, organic, grass-fed. How much more should milk from a grass-fed cow cost? The answer to my question of how it would work, and there really is only one way, is... government-run grocery stores.

Fair enough. But your second paragraph makes a more general reference to "culture war," which to me implies that anyone concerned with this battle meets your litany of insults. I happen to be such a person; not so much about people who mask up to hide their insecurities, but moreso about things like transing kids, which has moved beyond acceptance (which I'm generally good with) to encouragement (which I'm bad with).

Yes, the right is the party of "othering." MAGA extremist... election denier... birther... not to mention racist, misogynist, phobe-a-phobe

I've posted the data multiple times on this so I won't again, but... these are examples of lying with statistics. Trump's spending and debt in his first three years was consistent to prior regimes; slightly more every year. While I'm not thrilled with this, it was nothing to cause significant inflation. Trump's last year was Covid of course, and he spent a lot trying to keep the country going while businesses were shut down. You can argue whether or not this was good, but at least there was a reason. Biden and Harris, on the other hand, continued to increase spending on top of what should have been a one-off, pandemic of the century event. Put another way: Trump's spending in 2020 contributed to inflation. Biden/Harris continuing to spend that much and more, every year, contributed a lot more.

This makes no sense. Trump just sat with a group of black women journalists who couldn't have been more biased. Harris wouldn't join, even though they'd have bowed to her altar. She knows she sucks at anything unscripted. More importantly, my post was making fun of @zsasz, who calls himself a centrist but is every bit as blue pilled as you are. Otherwise, good post, good effort.

Except for that 1964 speech which launched him to two terms as governor of your state, then two terms as president. In case you want to watch it. It's weird that you think calling me an Eeyore for pointing out how you've abandoned your journalism principles is some kind of win for you. But you do you.

Very good post until the last part. She is historically unlikable. The MSM is creating your #3 by enabling her to avoid questions, and creating the illusion that she is the amalgamation of all of the great orators of our time. If she veers one foot from the teleprompter she sucks, bad. That's why she isn't doing interviews or press conferences. You've proven an utter inability to evaluate people (Biden), or evaluate the bias of the MSM (too many instances to count), so I know this post is wasted on you. Someday maybe I'll learn.

As a centrist, you seem surprisingly gleeful at being gaslit once again by the MSM on the Democrat candidate. Do you think other centrists share this centrist view, of enjoying being a lemming to the media? Seems kinda uncentrist to me.

Agreed on both. I'm probably in the minority of being one who read the books first; we were lucky to discover them early. Some scenes, like this one, were done really well in the books. I think Oberyn's fight with the Mountain was another one. Speaking of the books vs. TV, I'm not sure how much it came out on the screen, but Gregor was IMO the best character in the books. I know Tyrion would be a popular choice, but in the end he was basically a good guy. Gregor was the perfect Martin character -- so good, yet so bad.

Same kinda teleprompter reading that convinced you at the SOTU that Biden is completely competent? "I've BEEN a prosecutor... unfettered by what has been... coconut tree!"

Same. No ads on my laptop (Windows). Phone has maybe gotten a little worse in the past few days, but I don't think AdBlock runs on Chrome on the phone. If I'm wrong, and/or something like this AdGuard works on an Android, I'm all ears. ETA: By "no ads," I do get ads in the bar on the top, but that's it. I think I could stop those, but why? I don't mind giving that to FFT.

The one thing in our favor, and by "our" I mean people who want transparency, is that segments of the MSM might still be a little sore that they were gaslit and made to look like idiots for 4 years of defending Biden's mental state. Muh deep fake videos%$@! So now that the right is calling them out again, this time for being biotches to Harris, some of them may push back a little. Like this guy.

Perhaps you slept thru Covid, where debates around masks were plentiful.

Rusty used to be in the press. Now he thinks it's great that Harris doesn't talk to the press, and that the press isn't pushing very hard.

That scene with the gratuitous orgy in a brothel from every episode.

Is this the part where I say that you need to own all of the Left's positions, like cutting the d1cks off of confused boys? Or should I stick with the candidates: sleeping with the boss to get ahead, deaf drunk driving, stolen valor, that stuff?

I sometimes shoot hoops at a park near my house, and a school bus drops off HS kids in the afternoon. I still see kids walking through the park with masks. Always girls. It's definitely a lack of confidence in their looks. Except for that rare kid that lives with posty's relatives.

Wut now?

To clarify, when I say "outside," I don't mean in a grocery store, or coming in our out of a store. I presume that those people, like you, were sick and being courteous. I go to Mayo Clinic more often than I'd like, and lots of people are masked up there. Heck, many of my appointments require me to walk through the chemo waiting room (seems like a poor design, now that I think of it). Those poor people are immuno compromised, so I don't blame them even if they are just being cautious. I'm talking about the person walking down the street, alone, masked. Sorry, I haven't seen him.

Come on now, buddy. The Tims (Schochet and Tampon) told me this was a campaign of JOY$#@!

I'm enthused! I can just feel the joy$#@!

When I see a woman like this, my first instinct is to hope she has some illness and isn't some mental thing. But then I think, self, why would you wish an illness on this woman? Which makes me think... it's almost always a woman. Do you ever see a guy by himself masked up outside?

So... Harris copied Trump again? Does this woman ever have an original thought?
