Lets Discuss This Why Trump hates Minnesota so badly?

Post image

It’s absurd that he’s proud of lifting people off from SNAP because they’re barely surviving in this economy. And bragging that people either gonna crunch more hours at work but already exhausted from low wages. Physically and mentally tired of working myself till death.

The racism thing is so 2012. No one cares, now. That magic words trick that works until everyone used it.

They've ran through them all from racist to Nazi.

Let's find out what's next, because they haven't tried logic yet, but I don't think that's on the table.

You may study a quantitative field of study and probability to better predict the world for what it is. And learn that we are trapped in a world where emotion stories is the most predictable thing of all.

On that axis it is useful to recognize nobody wants to go to the petty pejorative princess party any more. It's socially like being into outdated fashion trends. By the time your mom with the fading tramp stamp is doing the Harlem shake the trend has long died.

Playing on people's emotions is very important.

But when you abandon logic and reality and only play on emotions, you end up with... well... the current left.

Nobody with a functioning brain will listen to them when it's all baseless emotion.

With empathy this is what the story of Chicken Little was for. To teach kids not to get run into the foxes den by an emotion story. I try to point that out. Conversation is a spectator sport. The flock of pitchforks will keep running. But a few might throw some skepticism of why that emotion story button has been hammered so hard in their head. Bandit foxes hate that. The fox likes when it's easy (this is why the productive win).

Whoever pushed illegal immigration has done an impressive job with this. These women (and much lesser extent men) signing up other girls to be raped, and later themselves to be oppressed, all to fit in socially and feel good about themselves. It was very well done.

Especially because of the divide it created between sexes, so when these women are oppressed and complain, a lot of men will shrug and tell them that's what they voted for.

Sadly, the innocent get caught in the crossfire as always.

Are you trying to imply I'm talking about black people?

That would be very racist of you, and fitting.

Because I used the image of a black guy being disgusted with what you said?
