Nah, I don’t think so. I personally would rather that they arrested Bin Laden, and tried him in international courts, but I don’t see a problem with Obama killing him.

Stonewalled? He got a lot of support for blowing up innocent people. He wasn’t forced to do any of it, he was proud of it. If he wanted us out of Iraq, why didn’t he at least try? He had every opportunity to pull out, but proudly decided that more war was a good idea. At no point was congress forcing his hand in that.

“you wont, youre hatred of him wont allow it”

You are correct. My hatred of someone who bombed innocent people, screwed over the poor and working class, and expanded torture programs won’t allow me to say that he was a great president. If he wanted to be remembered as a great president, then maybe he shouldn’t have done those afwul, evil things.

Imagine being a 4 year old in the middle east. Imagine being blown up by the first half-black president! Do you know how amazing and progressive that must feel?

Imaginge being tortured in a prison, with the approval of a person who had been called the N-word. Can you imagine how liberating that must be?

Imagine losing your home, and watching the bank that owned your mortgage making billions of dollars in profit, but all, while a PoC was president. Can you imagine how great that must feel? To know that America was so forward thinking?

I don’t really care about Obama’s race. I care that Obama screwed over the working class, and tortured and killed innocent people.

Once again, I ask you to point out where I said that “they are the same”. You won’t, because I haven’t said that, because I don’t believe they are the same. Come back when you are done tilting at windmills

Then he should have gone down fighting. He chose to grow the wars because his doners wanted him to. And if by “got stuff done” you mean “bombed kids”, or “tortured innocent people” or “sold out homeowners to protect the banks”, then I’d say it was indeed Obama. You know who also expanded drilling for oil? Biden

I’d rather have politicians who try for what I want and fail, than politicans who are successfull at what I don’t want.

Also, please point out where I said both sides are the same. It’s amazing to me how liberals constantly yell at me for things I do not believe, and haven’t said.

No, I mean after 9/11 when Obama continued Bush’s policies, including torturing people at black-sites, and bombing children overseas. I also mean when Biden sent Haitians off to torture camps in Guantanimo. I also mean when Biden spent a bunch of money expanding ICE, the border wall and our military.

So yeah, if you keep ignoring when Democrats act evil, you won’t have any memory of them acting eveil. I suggest next time you look for data, before saying that you don’t remember any data.

Me neither, but I do recall them going after people of a certain religion, and sending them to torture prisons. I remember them fast-tracking a bunch of funding for the wall, and deporting more people than first-term Trump.

So sure, maybe they didn’t campaign on being evil, but once they had the power, they sure acted evil.

I’ve heard variations on this for years, but here is where I found this specific version: https://jessicadavidson.co.uk/2016/03/04/how-long-does-it-take-to-become-enlightened/

A Buddhist monk approached his teacher and asked the Zen Master, “If I meditate very diligently, how long will it take for me to become enlightened?”

The Master thought for a moment, and then replied, “Ten years.”

The student then said, “But what if I work very, very hard and really apply myself to learn fast. How long then?”

The Master replied, “Well, then it will take twenty years.”

“But if I really, really work at it. How long then?” persisted the student.

“Thirty years,” said the Master.

“But I don’t understand,” said the disappointed student. “Each time I say I will work harder, you say it will take me longer. Why do you say that?”

The Master replied, “When you have one eye on the goal, you can only have one eye on the path.”

You can delay messages to yourself with Signal if you long-press the send button. I also run my own email server, and schedule messages in the future to remind me about things.

There was a candidate against it. If you’d had paid attention at the time, you would have noticed that. Also, voting against something is actually the opposite of voting for it.

I will not, as I voted against it, which is more than the Democrats can say

I always read it as “It’s not a big deal, as long as it’s my team doing it”. See also: Sending immigrants to torture prisons, rape, caring about corporations more than people, suppressing the working class, war, etc.

Advertisements are an attack to manipulate me and change my behaviour. I don’t tolerate them at all. They also ruin the product, because it eventually becomes more important to cater to the advertisers than the users.

If Youtube went back to how it was originally (no ads, downloadable videos, creator-controlled, etc), I, and many others, would happily pay them even if we could get the content for free (see Patreon, or GoFundMe, or PornHub, or Imgur, or Reddit, or many other sites as examples).

You mean the genocide that Harris said that she was going to support?

It’s always amazing to me that Democrats get mad at people who couldn’t stomach voting for genocide, instead of getting mad at the people who ran a pro-genocide campaign.

No, it’s when almost every example is of liberals doing that same thing that makes it an example of liberalism

They are run by self-declared liberal democrats. These benches were put in place under their administration.

Every “liberal” city that I’ve lived in has had these, or a variant. So I’d have to say yes, it is liberalism in action

It does dark-theming with config.set(‘colors.webpage.darkmode.enabled’, True), and I run it with JS turned off by default. That gets rid of the vast majority of ads for me.

In the Bobiverse books, a guy uploads his brain into a computer. He then spends years flying accross space, because it takes years to get anywhere. I’ve often dreamed of having a few decades just to work on my fun personal projects, uninterrupted.
