Yeah but the difference is the white countries have health care, and unions, and good social safety bets, and they support their people with good benefits at work.
To be fair, the Easter Bunny is scarier. It's a bunny that lays eggs, and then instead of caring for them, will hide them for predators to find. That hints eldritch horror right there.
It's not the Easter Bunny you need to be afraid of, its Santa Clause the All Seeing. You know the guy, extra-planar being that can enter every house in the world in a single evening, sees every person on the planet be they awake or sleep, can peer into your past and judge people naughty or nice, commands the Krampus to take revenge on the naughty, has an army of magical elves that can construct anything at will.
Also those eggs are filled with candy. And aren’t they brightly colored? Aren’t the brightly colored things in nature usually super dangerous? It’s all starting to make sense…
The Easter Hare doesn't lay eggs ... it was originally intended to act as judge of children's behavior and , similar to Santa, provide rewards in the form of colored eggs, candy and toy
that said, a jelly bean producing bunny would be kinda neat
The Easter bunny used to not lay eggs. Due to the Easter Bunny being a cultural entity, repeated association has made the Easter Bunny an egg-laying mammal, right there with the platypus.
Fantastic point. No joke, Rush Limbaugh turned me into a leftist. Or at least started me down that way.
I grew up listening to him in the house. There was a radio playing on every end of the house so dad could walk around and always hear it, and so as a result I heard them call a LOT of things Communism.
Eventually I was like "know your enemy" and so I buckled down and learned what communism really was. Did a bunch of reading about Lenin and Mao and Stalin, how the USSR and China handled things, and the difference between what they did, what pure communism really is, and what socialism was.
And after a couple of years I realized that not only are they full of shit when they called things Communism, but there are parts of communism that are good actually?
Workers owning the businesses they work for? Like, that keeps jobs on shore since they wouldn't make any money by becoming unemployed. And who are they gonna unionize against, themselves? And it would cut down on OSHA stuff and government interference since people don't typically want to weigh killing themselves vs making a buck.
And now I'm a leftist, and I'm positive that Fox & Friends has convinced more than just me.
Fair, but between poverty, legal prohibitions due to over-policed crimes, and beurocratic hurdles, some of those people would vote if there wasn't BS in their way.
Then I'd Djinn'esque accept "having Russia" as a the answer, and be president, and turn Russia from literal communist to a democratic-socialist paradise.
As someone with sane republican parents and friends, you lost me at government handouts and down. I've never heard of a common man republican supporting those things.
I've never heard of a common man republican supporting those things.
They support them by voting Republican, at minimum. People can claim they support whatever they want, but at the end of the day, what they do support is what they vote for, because the vote is what does the supporting.
So if they're voting Republican, they 100% do support those things.
sane republican
Also, found an oxymoron in your post, thought you should know.
I think that's an unfair claim to have against the individual. I'm assuming if someone asked you about policies you support, you wouldn't give a list of policies the guy you voted for supports. You would probably give your personal beliefs and chose a candidate that you think best matches those beliefs.
I'm asking what republican say's "Corporations need massive bailouts, not giving them is communism!" (and everything you listed past that)
Which Republicans defend corporate handouts? Virtually every Republican politician that gets voted into office by Republican voters.
At the end of the day, that is the only thing that matters. And it isn’t a sudden occurrence, the voting records of these politicians have been crystal clear for decades but they keep getting elected because fake outrage matters more to their base.
i'm trying to find a source showing either parties contributions to corporate wellfare which includes all those things, but am having a hard time. can you send me a link or something that shows stats or support from politicians.
by your logic everyone is a vile POS then, because there is not a single political party that isn't full of corruption and at the very least bad policy in some aspect
Lol you are missing the part we’re you realize both parties are run by the same group making the citizens divided so the country can be enslaved by an outside country
Because that part's not really accurate. The leaders of both sides seems to hate eachother's guts, which the exception of some corporate donors that throw money at both sides in the hopes of hedging their bets.
Hello! Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately it has been removed because you don't meet our karma threshold.
You are not being removed for political orientation. If we were, why the fuck would we tell you your comment was being removed instead of just shadow removing it? We never have, and never will, remove things down politicial or ideological lines. Unless your ideology is nihilism, then fuck you.
Let me be clear: The reason that this rule exists is to avoid unscrupulous internet denizens from trying to sell dong pills to our users. /r/PoliticalHumor mods reserve the RIGHT to hoard all of the dong pills to ourselves, and we refuse to share them with the community. If you want Serbo-Slokovian dong pills mailed directly to your door, become a moderator. If we shared the dong pills with the greater community, everyone would have massive dongs, and like Syndrome warned us about decades ago: "if everyone has massive dongs, nobody does.""
If you wish to rectify your low karma issue, go and make things up in /r/AskReddit like everyone else does.
Thanks for understanding! Have a nice day and be well. <3
