Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - LP - 10-30-2024
For me the GOP / Demo debate is a completely separate issue to Trump, but his boosters don't see it that way, they can't see a way forward without him and to me that exposes a disturbing mentality, a mob mentality.
I just can't imagine how anybody can support his public behaviour, it shows how morally bankrupt a large portion of modern society has become.
When they are silent on Trump, you can understand how women get bashed and nothing happens, you can build that link as it's the same fundamental mindset, the "not my problem" mindset!

We need to change governments frequently to keep balance. The extreme left are just as dangerous as the right. look at what a decade of one party has done to our state? We have kids in school identifying as cats and teachers are not allowed to tell them to cut the nonsense.

Sounds unconvincing to me :

It's a real thing, trust me.

I don't deny it's a real thing. The salient issues are whether it's a serious thing, whether it's a widespread thing, whether it's a thing of concern, whether there's a simple direct connection between this behavior and the non existent "extreme left" etc.
Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - Lods - 10-30-2024
We sometimes criticise our own method of electing our leaders.
It rarely throws up the big 'personality'.
More often the leader is a 'bland' party man who reaches the position of Prime Minister through longevity as much as anything else.
But, that leader rarely reaches the position of head of his party without extensive experience in other portfolios so they bring to the job a fair bit of experience across a range of areas.
Trump wouldn't last 5 seconds in our system.
We tend to look at the American system through our own expectations of leadership...and as bland as our guys are they are always going to be better than the US alternatives...if they don't come up to scratch they can be replaced in heartbeat.
With that standard in mind it is often difficult for Australians to understand why someone like Trump can appeal to the voter.
But looking at it through the eyes of an American, they are looking for what party or candidate offers the best outcomes for them.
It's quite specific to their situation.
They don't worry about what is happening in the rest of the world or even other parts of the US.
If they think the last four years under Biden/ Harris has seen them worse off than the previous four years under Trump then they'll vote for Trump.
We're just spectators...the decision is one for them.

At Baxter Tech in the early ‘80’s we had a kid who thought he was a Mack truck, complete with gear change noises and little wheel spins when he went from standing to walking… ?
Sorry, what was your point again ?

Off topic again but the "furries" in our schools is a beat up following similar lines to a US urban myth that was publicised by Joe Rogan.
Try checking Snopes first :
