Do we still include men who voted for Hillary when calculating the risk of dying from testicular cancer? If so, it seems that just got a lot more deadly, as well!
See, it never ceases to amaze me how deluded people can STILL be, even now, two months and some change on from when they lost.
If your party clings to those being the reasons that you lost, then you'll never win another election again as long as you live. I'm no hate-monger or asshole, nor am I really an anti-globalist. I wouldn't mind some globalism, as long as it's on some much better terms than the wholesale shipping of our entire business and manufacturing base into foreign nations to line the pockets of the 0.1% even more, but I digress. I voted for Obama in 2008. (Remember HOPE and CHANGE-I'd bet a lot of those same people voted from Trump this time, starting to understand yet?)
Anti-globalism was a major driver for those in the know, in addition possibly a fringe of misogynists, sure (I mean less than 1%), but the overarching reason folks voted for Trump is that they wanted someone who at least pays them lip service. Sure, lots of people, myself included, know that he probably won't do 10% of the things he promised, but at least he promised something other than 4 more years of the middle-class circling the bowl and shipping their livelihoods to India or China. That was essentially Hillary's platform, more of the same establishment, more of the same shaft to the people, and wasn't ashamed to say it!
I expect everything that comes out of a politician's mouth to be unadulterated bullshit, but come on! She couldn't even be bothered to act like she cared about the middle class (what's left of it) she was so arrogant. All she would have had to do to win was lie, but she was too lazy to evendo that. Says a lot about her character, doesn't it? She thought she could win with her middle finger up to America standing next to Obama with his hand on the flush valve. How could she possibly have lost?
It seems a whole bunch of the working class just stood up, here and in GB, and ignored the propaganda, lies, fake news, and rhetoric (you call them "wedge issues") to take back control of their nations.
Globalism is only inevitable to a globalist. That's how I knew you were one, because while it's doom and gloom for you, it's a brand new day for millions of sane, intelligent people who aren't going to be bullied by the likes of you and your ilk anymore. You lost, get over it.
P.S. - Spoken like a true Democrat to use minorities as a scapegoat, though. Do you get bonus points for that?
God damn, is everything Doom and Gloom with you people? Apple unashamedly politicizes a price hike disguised as equality (gotta keep things "fair" right?), and your ilk uses it as an excuse to play the blame game against populists who look out for their own interests before the interests of foreigners. Real cute.
Wanna know what else? I know more young people that voted for Trump than old codgers. You must have missed how the shitposting internet memers got Trump elected. The geriatrics sitting at home all day watching Fake News on the Cable TeeVees are the only ones I know that voted for Her(tm) and will actually admit it out loud.
But yeah, what's to come is going to suck for all those suckling off the teat of the globalist establishment, of which I assume you're on the gravy train somewhere, right?
I posted this further down, but truth should stand on its own. We don't need to censor every fringe just because they're untruthful. If we raise a generation of people to take what is on the first hit of Google as the ultimate truth, no critical thinking can occur.
Now that isn't what I said, is it? I said that if the page is a hijacked page, or has risen to the top of the search results because of unsavory SEO, then by all means, quash it. If this page is there legitimately because people click on it and spend time reading it, then why shouldn't it be at (or near) the top of the results? As I said before, I think most sane people agree that the Holocaust happened, so why is a bunch of nutbags questioning it be so threatening? Does the truth not stand on its own?
Seems like it's rife for abuse. The "numbers" used by spammers are just spoofed local phone numbers, and heaven help you if you have one of the numbers they spoof, you won't be able to call anyone.
Plus, I'm sure this will be used to block communications from subversi^W terrorists and everyone else they deem unworthy of being able to communicate.
If it's historically the most popular page people visit after entering that query, then the algorithm seems to be working as intended. It's not up to the operator of the search engine to censor a result that is legitimately returned by the engine (ie. page has not been hijacked or the popularity is the result of some automated SEO or other artificial skewing of the result) just because it makes people uncomfortable. I know, Google isn't the government, and they don't have to have any page on their site blah, blah, blah.
But as the defacto gatekeeper to the internet (at least for millions of non-savvy users), they have a responsibility to stop with the "deep thinking" about how to "imrpove" the algorithm. Because what they mean is they are trying to figure out how to censor speech they (and admittedly, most sane people) find "deplorable", for lack of a better term. But that's always the problem with free speech, it isn't free if you don't hear something that makes you uncomfortable once in a while. If you can't stand being uncomfortable once in a while, then you aren't an adult, you're a whiny child...and you don't deserve the benefits that come along with those rights as well.
You still didn't read all of it. The "emissions test" only served as a tax on the people who can least afford to repair their vehicles, while doing nothing to stop pollution. Think about it this way: anyone with the money to do so will be getting their vehicle repaired as soon as the "service engine soon" light comes on. That light is only off when all systems, including pollution control systems, are functioning normally. If the cost to repair exceeds the value of the vehicle, the well-off person just buys a new vehicle. So you won't save any emissions there.
Those who CAN'T afford to get the otherwise well-running vehicle repaired as soon as the malfunction indicator lamp comes on will continue to drive the car until the emission tests come up. The car will be tested, fail, have some "adjustments" made by a "mechanic" as cheaply as possible, then be tested, fail again, and then a waiver issued to continue to operate for 12 months. Each step of the way the process is taxed, and fees must be paid to the government. This person cannot afford a new vehicle, nor the repairs that exceed the value of the vehicle. So again, no emissions were actually saved because the car is still out of compliance, but the poor people were taxed up one side and down the other, so it's all good.
Explain to me how this isn't government over-reach and not just another thinly veiled tax on the poor that liberals supposedly hate so much but only when they disagree with the reason?
Wait, I thought leftists were the ones worried about the sanctity of our democratic process and peaceful transition of power? And they're advocating that electors ignore the will of the people? Color me shocked, leftists are hypocritical children; Film at 11.

Must be those damned misogynists.

Just out of curiosity, which Apple phone penalizes the buyer by removing features? Other than the iPhone 7 and the missing headphone jack, obviously.

It's not some left/right dichotomy here.
What reality are you living in these days?
hate-speech are prosecutable
What country are you from?
Some people wouldn't know humor if it jumped up and bit them in the ass. Sorry I don't have any mod points to offset your "Troll" rating...

Yes, we must protect the values we cherish by destroying them.
War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength
The rallying cry of the left.

At least you know this and can admit it.

Yes, don't rise above, sink below! Become the fascist you claim to hate so strongly!
Calling people Nazis and faggots, the cornerstone of every intuitive argument.
Name calling! The cornerstone of every logically-based argument!
Leftists don't believe in guns, and definitely not for using them in a civil uprising. This will not ever happen, stop saying stupid things.
After folks finish digging up the dirt on this Russian hacking fiasco
Still clinging to that one, are we? Is that all you all have left?
Fire them all, then.
Look, man. IT'S SETTLED. Remember?
Don't make them start enforcing the fact that it's settled at the end of an M-16.
It's blue. What color is it in your drug-induced lefty coma where Trump is somehow the bad guy?
