I don't necessarily agree with everything that any one party says, but I strongly disagree with just about everything that a couple of them say. I think a lot of people are like that. You end up aligning with and voting for either the party that you have the most in common with, or the party that will prevent the opposite from coming to power. It'd be great if it worked differently, especially in the US, but that's kind of the reality of the situation.
I'm not sure. He seems (perhaps not deliberately) to be encouraging division. What does he have to do or say to make even his own supporters say "oh, yeah, that was a shitty thing to say." The opposite is happenning. Everyone, on the left and right, is stubbornly sticking to their guns and hurling abuse at anyone on the other 'side'.
It's ridicluous. Who said there even has to be a side? Can't people make their own opinions without feeling like they have to be part of a gang? Left and right is bullshit. I hate even using those terms. I make my opinions on a case by case basis. Most of them happen to align with more left-wing opinions but I'm not joining hands with everybody else on the left... some of them are bullies and arseholes too. Still others are needy hug seekers. (Also the recent Corbyn-mania in the UK has been utterly embarrassing - I cautiously voted for the guy, but why are people so willing to throw their entire logical process into one temporary political movement? It makes me cringe.)
People say 'but but humans need to be part of a group'. Not me. I love being alone with my own free-will and decision-making capabilities (well I did... then I got married, but yeah...)

He's saying that your assertion that America is no worse off isn't supported by the evidence. This thread is full of examples of things that are worse as a consequence of Trump taking office. I'd be interested to know how those bad things are balanced out by the good things you think the President has achieved.
Quote from: Ryan Timoothy on Fri 18/08/2017 06:33:25I know, I'm almost torn on it. Like yeah, it's a horrible term. But maybe it brings this evil to light, and maybe it serves a higher purpose? Maybe I'm just trying to find the silver lining in this devastating hurricane of a president.
It's funny because I often wonder if the *best* thing for America is Trump. Not Trump himself though (obviously). Where he has indirectly shown us what's wrong with that country and what needs to be fixed. Before Trump, did the world know how rough of shape that country was in? The people seem immensely divided.
When I watch the buffoon's speeches, a small part of me wonders if he's playing the role of the fool to help unite everyone against what's broken; shine some light on the creeps who have been hiding in the shadows. But who am I kidding. lol

Are we writing the weirdest porn here? Is someone getting off on this?[close]

Tycho and DBoyWheeler: I made a few small games in the past for friends, but nothing good enough for a bigger audience. Thing is, I'm terrible with puzzle design â€" and my programming isn't any better!
