Why do users act like they understand politics?

They're too scared to say they're mad at the $100 billion aid ask by Biden to Congress the other night. They want to be mad because the nation can spend all this money on foreign aid but doesn't shell out for reparations. What the overwhelming majority fail to understand is that Biden can't just can't wave his hand and make reparations happen. They fail to understand that spending bills have to originate in the house: Power of the Purse | US House of Representatives: History, Art & Archives . They also fail to understand that white America via the Republicans will never let it happen. They choose to ignore the obstruction by Republicans, instead preferring to blame Democrats for everything bad that has, is, or will ever happen. Some of them voted once, maybe even twice, and expected the world to change overnight. When it didn't, they decided that their vote didn't count for anything, so why bother? Then they become staunch TLRepublicans, screaming from the top of their lungs #BothSides and don't vote. But rather than saying this transparently, they try to lead you in with vague statements and misinformed lines of questioning.
Dawwwggg I was trying to get them to talk about it. You ain’t have to wrap my thread up like that lmao

Expecting honest and serious political discussions online is unfortunately a waste of time. Everybody has their agenda to spread so you'd be wasting time and energy trying to educate someone when the truth is they're not interested in what you're spitting in the first place.

Politics is best spoken in person because at least you can look a person in the eye and know exactly what their motive is and where they stand. It's hard to spread lies and disingenuous agenda-driven perspectives when you gotta look someone in the eye.

This thread is clearly about anyone that is critical of Biden.
Nah it’s about how users, like you especially, do terrible research and have terrible reading comprehension because I don’t know when the fukk I said anything about people being critical of Biden. I want people to be critical but be precise so I can actually learn something instead of doing your homework for you.

What does this even mean, smart dumb coli breh? :dwillhuh:
Basically the only reason there's anything getting done in this country is because the elected want to keep power and because the corporations' agenda give em the gameplan.

No one is really going against the status quo.

For example Senator A is funded by Corporation B, so Senator A basically lives to vote for and against all bills according to the corporation's gameplan.

The only difference between Senator A and Senator B is the corporation team they play for.

If corporations weren't allowed to fund politicians, the politicians would look and act a lot different.

I stick to local politics. Outside of that, I'm in the dark as it's so confusing and I don't have enough time or interest to get into ideological arguments about them past a surface level.

System needs a change to be more accessible to average people. As it stands, you pretty much have to have a Poli-Sci degree or equivalent to get into the nuts and bolts outside of Civics Classes in school.​

Really? I think local politics is harder to follow than national.

Most people including most posters on this forum are ignorant and lack critical thinking skills.

I take pity on people
