A family friend forwarded this to me. I responded with that laughing emoji, wasn't worth an actual serious, dignified, detailed response. He's been influenced by some of his dumb arse, uneducated, Trump-loving mates. Sad to see what a lack of critical thinking skills can make people fall for.

I think it's partly because many are accustomed to the 9-5 weekday grind, not including people who work weekend shifts etc. I think there's an understanding here that life is good, hence the chest-thumping theatrics about how great Australia is you'll see online, but I think people still yearn...

Yeah, you can't rationalise it, it's just stupidity. Our system won't be able to sustain itself the way people carry on. And people wonder why some of us don't want to breed.

It hasn't. I already knew people, in general, were stupid. Yeah, I was stupid once, but I was a teenager. I'm talking about grown men and women over 25. Panic buyers everywhere after the 5-day Perth lockdown announcement, from upper to lower class, north to south of the river, east, west, we've...

Yeah pretty much, though if Trump is somehow the Republican nominee in 24 and the voter turnout drops far enough, Kamala could lose. I'd be surprised if anyone but her is the next president, though. That's if there is one (see China-Taiwan escalation).

Speaking of Collingwood, read an opinion piece about how Eddie should step up and challenge Albo for the opposition. His brother's had a safe Labor seat since 2011. Ed's outspoken, just the spanner in the woodworks I think we need.

Eddie for PM? He's pro-climate change action, actually quite socially progressive despite un-PC rhetoric. If he went to bat for increasing essential Australian manufacturing, lock him in indeed! We need a polarising big mouth aggro, not a wet blanket like Albo...

A close friend of the family hangs out with about half a dozen guys; I think they play darts together and sh*t like that. Three of them are Trump supporters, and one of them in particular is. He's not a literate, educated guy himself (supported Hanson, not sure if he does now after she tried to...

"He's also doing the Cars. He likes Cars. He does good at Cars too by the way. I never saw the cars drive themselves no pilot no anything and I said I have never seen that before."

Yeah, sure, I'm supposed to believe the pro-Muslim ban people care about brown people, am I? Biden hasn't started any new wars. Let's hope it stays that way.

Maybe. Definitely agree with the next two sentences. Yeah, nah, surely he could've done more to prevent the slaughter that continued. No, they're good for the economy. Obama had it right - deport the criminals, leave the rest alone, no wall necessary.

Yeah, honestly, I think you have to be a dickhead to still support Trump. I wouldn't have said that about them in 2016, but I do feel that way now.

As I said, though, Americans didn't increase manufacturing, it's not the same as fighting to retain what was left. You still had people wearing MAGA hats made in China etc. He did not bring back industrial capitalism; he was a stooge for the corporate ruling class. Right, but you acknowledge he...

Also, Obama deported twice as many undocumented Mexican immigrants with a criminal record than Trump did. So, what did Trump actually do that was any good? Do you think trickle-down economics is good for society?

1. Despite the tariffs that Trump put on Chinese imports, trade with China went up because they aren't producing materials. America doesn’t make its own shoes. It doesn’t make some nuts and bolts or fasteners; it doesn’t make industrial things anymore because if money is to be made off an...

And 20 sets of biceps to maintain push/chick pull balance.

Yeah, so why still support him, then? I saw this knob friend of a family friend the day Biden won having his snowflake meltdown about the loony left and how Trump did a "great job." 73 million people voted for him. I understand not being keen on the Democrats but the people who actually think...

Is it wrong to hate Trump supporters? Because I find it really, really hard to like them.
