We have a problem that will only be fixed by a catastrophe occurring

[The Duke]

All extremes are bad. During Reagan, social media was not available and therefore not a stimulant to the population to have online relationships where lying was a bit more difficult to do than now. In addition, online relationships do not stimulate some personal sacrifice to make them work. In real life, each person has to give something of themselves to the other person in order for the relationship to work. Online relationships do not require that and as such, it makes people even more selfish.

Your cheese done slipped off your cracker a little bit there, Bubba.

I’m still confused….so you think Republicans should ‘collaborate’ with Democrats in their quest to morph America into something it was not intended to become?

I think all Americans should work together for the benefit of ALL. That is called "compromise" and it has existed in our country for most of the 248 years it has been a country.

This means giving in a little and getting a little of what each side wants. This is not about giving in but about sharing.

As far as "turning America into something it was not intended to be", please be specific as to what THIS Democratic party is trying to achieve that other Democratic parties in the past were not!

“Work together” to tear down it’s core tenets, principles and values? Does that really make sense to you?

Dems detest ALL THINGS that America was founded upon, built upon and pillared by. They have illegally changed the demography of America, they have vilified Christianity, they have disdain for our Declaration Of Independence, they continuously assault our Constitution.
Core Americans can’t and won’t ‘make deals’ with modern Democrats…they are America’s worst enemy, the real existential threat.

You need to be SPECIFIC as to what you mean. The Democrats and Republicans have worked together for 248 years. They have different platforms and different objectives but they have compromised and the country has done fine for all this time.

What is different about the Democractic party now that is causing you to say that the "CORE tenets, principles and values" are going to be lost if we just continue to do what we have done for 248 years successfully, which is to compromise with each other.

Stop throwing propaganda out there and be specific in explaining your view. What is different about this Democratic party than the one 20 years ago, 50 years ago, etc.

STFU. For one thing the current Democrat party is constantly trying to undermine the Bill of Rights in general.
The party has been taken over by Commies, and that's not going to fly in America. Not when there's so many
people that know better by their own lives.

The parties used to be very close, agreeing on social issues and really only separated by abortion and spending. Both parties encouraged, patriotism and nationalism, they treasured Americas history, traditions, heritage and culture….they both valued Americas right to sovereignty, they both sought to preserve and protect all things America. Today’s Democrat Party is something else….180 degrees the other way.

You have it, as usual, completely ass backwards.

Our Founders set the government up to BE confrontational. Their goal was to make it as hard as possible for the government to pass laws because they knew that government, by its very nature is corrupt.

Thus, they created an adversarial system.

Take a civics class some day.

There is a problem worldwide that started occurring when social media began but the pandemic has taken it to a much higher degree. Here in the U.S., this problem has been taken to even a much higher degree by Trump, given that he is the ultimate example of the problem.

What am I talking about? Selfishness.

Here is where it began:



Up to here in this OP, this problem is worldwide. All nations that have social media online are experiencing this.

Nonetheless, we elected a narcissist president and narcissism by nature means selfish behavior to the max. He has been a magnet for other narcissists to become supporters of him.


Having said all of the above and with Trump now our leader and the above proven to be in effect, what then does all of this make it a big problem that can only be fixed by a catastrophe?

For any nation to survive, the "team concept" needs to be in place. A nation is a large group of people where everyone plays a part of its success and more importantly, needs to be a part of the success. When only a small portion of its citizens enjoy success and the large part does not, the nation crumbles and disunity occurs. Disunity brings disfunction and that brings chaos.

The only thing that can cause selfishness to go away is for a catastrophe to occur where people are FORCED to work together to survive. As long as one side can win and the other lose, selfishness will remain. When both sides are losing, selfishness needs to disappear or a loss to all is certain.

I have no idea of what kind of time frame is involved here (a few years, a few decades or even a few centuries) for this problem to reach its conclusion, but the reality is that there is NO SOLUTION available as only a catastrophe can solve it now.

The Selfishness virus has taken hold and there is no vaccine or medicine to cure it.

You neo-Marxist scum ARE the catastrophe.

Muricans who have a few precious shreds of common sense are now in the process of coming together, to assign you losers to your rightful place in the dumpster fire you created.

No worries. Social media platforms will eventually collapse in on themselves and be no more.
Something about teats on a boar hog.

How do you know that's a bubble kazoo and not a noisemaker one?

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Wait............wut?

Selfishness began with social media and the only way to fix it is to either vote democrat or kill everyone off?

Voting democrat is the same as killing everyone off.

 

[whitehall]

After the mess the fascist team of Biden/Fauci put the U.S. in during Covid the left thinks Trump is a catastrophe? WTF? Get some freaking perspective.

 

[d0gbreath]

You're right. I looked at my Kazoo that I got from Little Jewford (he played piano in the late Kinky Friedman's band and now entertains in cigar bars around the area). It looks like that one but mine is yellow.

Another debasing post without addressing the OP, eh?

I know you enjoy debasing the messenger but keep in mind that you are just one step away from being on ignore. Fair warning.

Hey MuckyBum
Attempted propaganda needs to better constructed and presented .
This site is hardly a meeting place for keen minds and cutting edge opinions ,but it remains a good bit better than Fakebook, for example , where you might get a better reception and many more Sheeple to the page .

You truly cannot address and support your words, can you?

Illegal immigration is what has changed in the Democratic Party? Illegal Immigration has existed in a big way for decades and in fact, this year (under Democratic rule), it is down to the same level as the highest year in Trump's administration and at the same level as during Bush Jr.'s administration.

Abortion has changed only because Roe vs Wade was repealed and that is not a Democrat thing but a Republican thing. Spending problems have not changed for Decades except when Clinton was president.

Patriotism and Nationalism have not changed except that now both of those are being measured differently because the Republican under Trump are more selfish and narcissistic, meaning they are being measured by different values than in the past. When before Trump was a captured patriot not a patriot. Under Trump, McCain was not considered a patriot.

Right to sovereignty has not changed other than through the lies that Trump has used to gain power.

You really need to get out of your own brain and selfishness and look at the real picture. You are seeing all of this through biased eyes that do not see facts.

You have not proved your statement. In fact, the lack of specifics as to the points you made, means you can't prove your statements. They are misinformed and providing misinformation (not fact)
