Victim blaming is never OK in my book.

And yet your more than happy for someone to throw around the fiddler and rapey term almost on a level instead of calling someone Mr, that shows more about the mental condition of someone than anything.

 

Granted he's probably editing Wikipedia for every war lord and dictator except his red masters obviously.

Ive just bought a 461. What a fun saw that is. Used but well maintained, ran on motomix so I'll continue to do the same. Ive found it so much better on fuel than my old 034.

461 is a cracking saw.

Mind you political ideology buys you a lot of breathing space here. 
 

 

No it doesn't. Character and general conduct on this site buys one a lot of breathing space here. Political ideology doesn't have much to do with it. There's a lot of other people on here who are actually as right leaning as you are, if not more so. They get along with everyone just fine.

 

If you set yourself up as the site lunatic you shouldn't be outraged if you get some flack and mockery for your antics.

about about a continent separated by a ocean.

 

So this is the bit that I don't get. Well, one of the bits. I've seen this accusation leveled quite a few times over the course of this long discussion. The "why are you concerned about what happens in another country?" thing. Answer; because what happens in the US profoundly affects the rest of us in the world. Such is the way of things now, (we don't live in the 1500s or something), and the fact that the US is the world superpower. 

 

I can accept that subjectively you obviously love Trump. Each to his own. However, thinking about it objectively, how has he made the world a better place? Can you list even a few things that have improved since he took up office? Anything, even just for the average American. Be honest please. From what most of us see we are now considerably more fcked than we were. By any metric you choose to measure it on. And he's only been POTUS, for less than a year. I dread to think what state we'll be in in three years time. 

 

Other than firing a shit load of blue haired people with pronouns, scientists and judges, what has he actually achieved? Making lots of money for himself and a handful of tech bros doesn't count. I'm talking about quality of life for average, hardworking people, the world over. 

 

There's obviously a lot of other shit going down across the globe right now. I'm not saying that Trump is responsible for all of the bad stuff. Just that the US, as the superpower, and hence the POTUS, has a big influence on world events and geopolitics.

There's a very big divide between concerned and a someone's almost addicted obsession with every fart and traffic ticket issued in America.

 

Some of those here seem to equate everything with it being Donald's fault, the man could single handed solve world hungery/peace and probably all the other world's ills and they'd still be unhappy.
