For sure. One of those times is not actually an article about whether Joe Biden should have a Peloton. Originally Posted by Fencers

its just a different word order, every leader always has the same key words, family, health, wealth, trust, honor, free, community, together, peace. Originally Posted by Fencers

it doesn't, but when i hear such a speech, i am going 'bla bla heard it bla bla, now put it into action'.
since they all say the same thing, its has no value unless they actually provide what they preach.
i'll save my opinion of him when he has actually done something, so should everyone else.Be passionate about the craft, achievements, events and community.
But do not worship the machine, pedestal nor system.

Perhaps not to you, personally. Though it might be to others because race is culturally important. Meaning how one lives and chooses to live is both an effect and affect of cultural context. Originally Posted by Spectral

You're not wrong about speech making. But speeches are not designed to be proof of action. Communication (either persuasion, propaganda, commiseration, etc) is the goal of speech making. Whether one has a "good" speech really does not reflect or have any bearing on actions for the most part; Reagan gave great speeches, his actions were very destructive to many though.

I don't think anyone who's been paying attention thinks the Trump Nightmare is over (not knocking you, just full-heartedly agreeing Originally Posted by UnifiedDivide

We'll see how it goes. This probably belongs in the Trump Shitshow thread, but I hear he's trying to start a new political party.

The peloton argument is important and highlights a specific worry I have. The idea of minimizing issues because “hey at least x therefore no y!” Originally Posted by UnifiedDivide

The idea of reaching across to compromise which msnbc noted generally is done with white men compromising in ways that hurt the minority and poor.

Honestly, I would prefer people being nit picky about a sitting president(comes with the territory) then one that actually went out of his way to harm others, either through action or legislation. Originally Posted by UnifiedDivide

At least Pence exited with respect. Shame to see Trump decided to act like a child all the way to his bitter end.

Welp, War and regime change ops are definitely not going away any time soon. Biden plans to recognize Guaido and continue belligerence towards Venezuela, possibly even escalating America's imperialist ambitions there.
On MMO-C we learn that Anti-Fascism is locking arms with corporations, the State Department and agreeing with the CIA, But opposing the CIA and corporate America, and thinking Jews have a right to buy land and can expect tenants to pay rent THAT is ultra-Fash Nazism.

How often do you hear from Clinton, Bush, and Obama? I know Trump seems to have intentions of running again or starting a media empire, but I think people overestimate how much of a voice he'll have. Between losing social media access, the mainstream media having no obligation to cover him, and a ton of debt and legal trouble barreling his way at this very moment, I think he's going to be far less publicly visible.

I'm more concerned about the foothold Trumpism has taken in certain parts of the Republican party, and whether it will be rooted out by McConnell or allowed to fester and grow.Last edited by Kathranis; 2021-01-20 at 05:53 PM.

It's a day of lofty ideals, here's hoping the new administration can live up to them. It's hard to be too optimistic but I'm grateful we got here and grateful the country rejected madness.
