In politics, this is the real issue we are facing, and it is being ignored!

[Rigby5]

He's a meatpipe
sorry...

These guys get lucky sometimes.

As far as my
not caring what happens to this country ?

I just don't feel
like I know you that well,
to make/accept that judgment.

That seems to happen a lot here.

Whether it is from Jon Stewart or not, the point of this thread is about the military being used against first amendment expression of anger over the government illegally not using judicial due process any more.
That is a very big deal because it makes the US a totalitarian dictatorship.

Sure, I have missed information in my life, especially when I was young. Nonetheless, my childhood made me question myself and because of that, I always looked for the truth and never believed anyone until it was proven the information was correct.

In addition, I have been an official (public) evaluator of the markets and as such, I have to do the research to find out what is true and what is not as my own personal beliefs are more likely to make me (and my clients or subscribers to my service) lose money than make it, and I have a long track record of being successful at doing that consistently (meaning my research has been correct more often than not).

As far as you comment about Stewart, no one is perfect and that means that if you look for something to support your argument you will find it.

Overall though, Jon Stewart has been very successful as a political commentator and comedian and that comes from a large amount of people liking and believing what he has to say. That suggests that he too, is more right than wrong

AI Overview

According to YouGov's data, Jon Stewart has a popularity rating of
49%. He is liked by 49% of people, disliked by 14%, and 22% are neutral. YouGov also states that 86% of people are aware of Jon Stewart, indicating a high level of fame.

When a person is liked 3 times more than disliked, he is likely more right than wrong. Trump (for example) is only liked by as many as dislike him and he is even more known than Stewart.

Take this information and parse it in your brain and see if you can understand the meaning of it.

The mere fact that you believe that not listening to a comedian on a comedy is not patriotic and hurts your feelings, makes you look silly and desperate. To claim such nonsense is a typical sign of narcissistic behavior, in that you believe you come from an authoritarian position, which is a flawed theory in my liberal ideals.

I said long ago that both parties will not do the right thing, they lack principles and I have been saying that a lot longer than your hero Stewart. I don’t waste my time watching comedians pretend they know politics, even when I agree with Stewart I don’t care what Stewart says or why he says it, and you have failed to prove why it would be important to even listen to him especially after the mind numbing poor humor I endured for 3-4 minutes, nothing he said gives me reason to listen to such nonsense. If you have a condensed version great but you have given no reason to listen other than your opinion that if someone doesn’t listen to Stewart they aren’t patriotic.

So you can pretend you know more, that you are more patriotic because you listen to a comedian as a source for your beliefs, that you understand the world better than myself or anyone else that doesn’t listen to Stewart, and in the end, it is just your opinion which I don’t share.

I am saying that our politicians are hypocrites and that the nation is not as important to them as their own views are. We are spending huge amounts of money on stopping illegal immigration instead of spending more on stopping our own people from killing ourselves.

This is NOT to say that we should not spend money on stopping illegal immigration. It means we should be addressing all the issues that affect our lives in the order of where more saving of lives occurs.

How can we dare spend $150 million on "specifically" stopping illegal immigration and spend so little on trying to stop mass murders where our own people are the ones doing the killings?

What is strangest about all this illegal effort against immigrants is that immigrants actually are good for the US, support the economy, pay into Social Security, increase our exports, buy more, and actually are an improvement with their native American cultures.

 

[Independent thinker]

Then you truly do not care about what is happening to Americans by what the politicians are doing.

I guess 27 minutes of sacrifice is to much for you. Stewart makes a clear point that is truly about what we are ALL facing. He does in in the second half of the video. The war is just setting it all up so we can understand better. He gets serious. The comedy is out for that half.

The real danger to our country is trolls like you posting on social media.

Come on, Israel has illegally attacked an innocent country of Iran and all you can say is about Jon Stewart?

Steward has a good track record, like when he talked about how we paid Wuhan to do "gain of function" research on COVID and then suddenly people in Wuhan were coming down with Covid? Fauci is still claiming it was the wet market.

The OP made Stewart part of this thread, no one else.

 

[Rigby5]

You said we spend $0 to prevent mass killing … that is clearly not true.

Policing prevents crime, it doesn’t eliminate it.

If you have a plan to stop mass killings and can tell me how much that would cost, we can talk.

The facts actually are that police impose injustice and are more out to raise revenue from fines more than anything else.
Look at the George Floyd murder, and you will find there was no probable cause for an arrest even.
When you look at the millions imprisoned in the US, over half are for things that are not supposed to be within the power of government to even criminalize, like drugs or adult sex.
So the reality is that by imposing injustice, police actually increase crime.
Simple native cultures without police, have almost no crime.
While in the US police state, you have mass shootings in schools on a regular basis.

Keep sucking that Mullah dick, while you still can.

Compare the Mullahs with the US destroying the democracy in Iran in 1953, and the Mullahs win hands down.

And then we let the Ayatollah take over and bought that issue. Now we are fixing it.

What is the obsession with some people over "make one mistake and you can't do anything ever again, ever"

Wrong.
It is not a conspiracy theory to believe we are attempting to take over Iran.
We not only did it to Iran before in 1953, but we just illegally invaded or took over Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Egypt, the Ukraine, Palestine, Syria, etc.

If your point is that Jon Stewart is just capitalizing on events and we should instead be talking about the events themselves, that would make sense.
But I don't see a single actual event in your post?
Does that mean you don't mind the fact we are once again starting another war by paying Israel to illegally attack Iran, or that US troops are being used to shut down rights in the US?

 

[Rigby5]

No, the "real danger" is ICE, National Guard, and now Marines illegally dismantling our entire judicial system.

But my point is that Jon Steward actually has an excellent track record.
He is the only one talking about the obvious fact covid was deliberate.

Get with the thread, the OP linked a specific story to Stewart, if you want, go watch it. I said nothing about any war, that is an entirely different thread topic.

What's the point? Jon Stewart (Leibowitz) is all over the place.

 

[Independent thinker]

Wrong.

We not only did it to Iran before in 1953, but we just illegally invaded or took over Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Egypt, the Ukraine, Palestine, Syria, etc.

Nobody is taking over the Panama Canal. No one is taking over Mexico. No one is taking over Canada. No one is taking over Greenland. And, no one is taking over Iran.

I don't particularly like the Mullahs, but clearly the US never "fixed" anything, and instead is the source of all the problems because we are only motivated by profits, and not principles.

Take an example like Vietnam.
Instead of letting the people voter and elect Ho Chi Minh, we illegally invaded Vietnam and installed Diem as a dictator who won 170% of the vote.
It was not even good for the US, since the only profits were from the taxpayers being forced to pay billions for M-16s, tanks, bombers, planes, helicopters, etc.

We obviously have no intentions of actually "fixing" anything about Iran, and instead are just eyeing up all that oil.

Its not just "one mistake".
The US stole a third of Mexico, lied to start the Spanish American war and steal Puerto Rico, the Philippines, Cuba, etc. lied to side with the criminal assassins in WWI, tied to install a dictatorship in China, Korea, Vietnam, Nicaragua, Cuba, etc.
Lately we illegally took over Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Egypt, Palestine, etc.

What is rare instead, is where the US actually did any good?
I can't think of a single instance where the US did not screw things up.

Dismantling our entire judicial system by enforcing the country's laws?

Nobody is taking over the Panama Canal. No one is taking over Mexico. No one is taking over Canada. No one is taking over Greenland. And, no one is taking over Iran.

Actually, Panama is a fake country the US created by creating a fake rebellion from Columbia.
Panama has always been a fake US puppet.
Look at what happened when the Panamanians elected Noreiga?
We illegally invaded and imprisoned him over US drug charges that can not possibly have jurisdiction over Panama.
Imprisoning Noreiga was totally illegal.

The US has taken over Mexico constantly.
We not only illegally invaded Mexico twice, but we control them precisely now, by economic means instead of troops.

Canada and Greenland we just have not gotten around to yet.
But if there was enough profits involved, we would prioritize their takeover you can bet.

Iran has the 2nd largest oil reserves in the world, so is #1 priority.
Not only does the US only have 1% of the world's oil, but oil prices are going to soon skyrocket.
So the US "IS" going to "TAKE OVER" Iran.
It just is not clear how we are going to do it?
Whether we invade or just bribe another coup like we did in 1953?

 

[Rigby5]

Dismantling our entire judicial system by enforcing the country's laws?

Wrong.
If you look back over the history of US law, immigration is not something there is any basis for making illegal.
Law can only defend, so then trying to prevent natives from accessing their own ancestral land, clearly is inherently illegal.

There are lots of "laws" in this country that are illegal.
Like Prohibition, drug laws, adult sex laws, etc.
Laws are only legal when they defend others, not dictate to individuals.
