Posts: 4307MDS, I think you brought this up as well
And the funniest story of the week is this: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/...-men-dont-them.
Six months after a stinging nationwide rejection that handed Donald Trump a commanding reelection and fractured their core coalition, the Democratic Party is turning to a new solution: spending $20 million to figure out why young men don't like them.
"Above all, we must shift from a moralizing tone," the document urges.
In other words, the modern Democratic Party wants to know how it can lie to young men and get away with it. When we support South Africa killing white farmers, that is racist South African white men not you. When we say young white men are racist, we mean everyone else but you. When we brag about how far women have come, we mean all the sexist men not you.
Of course, maybe if Democrats stopped being racist, sexist parasites who come up with a plan that unties rather than divides the country, young men might listen to them.
It gets worse: It outlines a massive push to decode the language and culture of disaffected young men, particularly in online spaces, and includes a proposal to buy ads inside video games. Ah yes, video games, what young American men have decided to do as opposed to deal with American women.
It really amazes me that Dems are so blind to what young men are seeing. First off, young men have seen older men who have been completely held hostage by women over their children, Divorced Dads Should Give Up on Their Children. For Now. And Clarey is just reacting to what he has seen in his own life. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poKz44hjjG0.
Fathers will often have to put up with the psycopath that is the American woman who initiate divorce most of the time not out of being abused but boredom. If you have children with an American woman, you are their hostage. Look at the parasites on this forum selling out their sex for a few flings with foreign hookers.
Then there is the other part. Only Fans Replaced By AI. The Return of Hot Girls to Real Jobs? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ab6aH4WV-1g.
Clarey first mentions his terrible working experience with most hot American women. He then praises the guy who started Only Fans as a genius but this guy knows it is time to sell because this genius founder knows that AI women are going to replace regular women in the digital world. Who needs the American fantasy woman who is so often such a beetch, when you can have the fantasy woman who will do whatever you ask 24/7?
And then you have the path for the young American male: AI women at home for your sexual pleasure. If you desire real women or a relationship, have a woman or women abroad. If you want children that are truly yours, get a foreign wife and keep her in her native country or get a surrogate who is not an American woman, the perpetual victim class, to bear your children and hire nannies for child care.
MDS, it is amazing how many foreign women I have met who have had American men ask them to be surrogate mothers. It blows me away.
I get it. It is way cheaper to do so and you do not have to put up with the American woman who as Clarey puts it if they are attractive at all are likely to be bat shit crazy.
It is funny how parasites like Spidy call American men incels. Shit, if I were a young American male, I would wear that incel badge with proud. If you deal with American women, more likely than not, you are the dumb one.
It is so funny because you know the Democratic douches will try so hard to plug the holes in the system. Every time, they call people racist or sexist with their hiring practices, employers move the job overseas or hire independent contractors. Every time the douches or women are offended by male words, men learn to just say as little as possible. Every time men are falsely called rapists, the Democratic douches push men into the incel world.
And when you see the attitudes of the parasite class like Tooms, Spidy, and SC, you do all you can to pay less in taxes. If that means work less or open a business where you can take huge losses like Trump did to avoid taxes, you do so. The one thing you know is that with those three they do not give a shit about the future of the country. They do not give a shit if the country they grew up in is a mess drowning in debt as long as they get their share.
Do not fall for the con that I did. That hard work will be the answer to all your dreams. The parasites are lined up to take all that you have earned, shit on you, and brag about how they deserve your money more than you do. Get by with less. Work smarter not harder. And do all you can to cut the parasites, who are the worst of the Democratic douches, out of your life.
And that is why the Democratic douche plan to lure young men will fail. It is all based on lying to them.

Some recent US figures on the distribution of income by party: 65 percent of taxpayer households that earn more than $500,000 per year are now in Democratic districts; 74 percent of the households in Republican districts earn less than $100,00 per year. Add to this what we knew already, namely that the 10 richest congressional districts in the country all have Democratic representatives in Congress. The above numbers incidentally come from the Internal Revenue Service, via Bloomberg, and are likely to be more reliable than if they came from Project Veritas via theblaze.com.
Yes, the proposed Trump tax cuts help the rich Democratic districts more than anyone else. As for Republicans, according to Loony Tooms, we are the party of the Arab terrorists. My God, you cannot make this shit up.

Ah yes, South Africa is such a great example of why white people should be so compassionate with black people. He did not say white person. He said boer. Unfuckingreal.
Meanwhile, the oppressed SC, the guy who worked 10 X harder at his TSA job because it was so racist, is getting by with his 100 inch TV. My God, can you believe the horror? It is so racist of me to not want to pay for his new 120 inch set. And Spidy, you poor parasite, are you just getting by with a TV funded by taxpayers that is just 86 inches? Ah yes, you are so compassionate with tax payer dollars. Yes, SC, I will sacrifice my tax handouts for you. You go first brother.
Of course, he is your brother in arms. You, SC, and Loony Tooms are cut from the same cloth, a group of parasites wanting more government money for your hookers, and you deserve more because guys like me are racist and that assumption is totally based on my skin color. Maybe that should be your new slogan: Vote Democrat. We are tired of fucking our butt ugly hookers. He he.

And 2011, USA President Barack Obama personally requested that Qatar, one of the USA 's most important Arab allies, provide a base for the Hamas leadership. At the time, the USA Were seeking to establish communications with Hamas and believed that a Hamas office in Qatar would be easier to access than a Hamas bureau in Iran, the group's main backer.

A FACT you victoriously and nonsensically DENY, while making up your own gish gallop, to obfuscate, from the facts, just like the clown show, Repub House, that has foolishly pushed through, your Fuhrer's BBB, that ultimately funds TAX CUTS for the rich elites and robber baron billionaire class, on the backs of hardworking Americans.
Therefore, since I have no idea, what you're RANTING about, w/r to billionaires not paying their fair share of taxes, I'll let one of our esteemed colleagues, take over and explain it to you AGAIN:

Instead, they just shrug it off as normal and nothing to see here, folks.
And the House Repubs would already have initiated at least a dozen Impeachment proceedings with the Repub Senate assured to convict on all of them.

Meanwhile, in a momentary Global Trend to kick out incumbents in favor of Winger Loons, the WH incumbent Dems in 2024 took House seats away from Repubs even in the only 3 swing states that mattered where that tiny handful of Muslim vote swings were the sole reason Trump won by that razor-thin margin! LOL.
Oh, but the Repubs did take back 3 Senate seats in Red States that it was a miracle any Dem ever won and held in the first place in that particularly Repub-advantaged Senate race year. LOL. Big "upset".
Your Dem hero, James Carville, is correct in pointing out that Dems are winning elections around the country nobody thought they could win, contrary to what the polls suggest:
James Carville dismisses Democratic Party's record-low polling: 'We're winning elections'.
Veteran Democratic strategist points to recent ballot-box victories despite party's favorability sinking to historic lows.

There is no sign that there will be a tiny handful of angry Muslims willing to pull another rabbit out of a hat for a Repub candidate any time soon. Especially without Trump in the mix and Netanyahu cleverly timing a ceasefire agreement to swing the election to the weakest negotiator and most bumbling fumbling USA president ever, Trump.
Even longtime Trump / MAGA Cult Spokesmen like Ben Shapiro are showing signs of snapping out of their Trump / MAGA Delusions:

GOOD STUFF.
Allahu Akbar.
Imagine if you will a White House (and World) free of a Democrat for 20 or 30 yrs.
I think many people have a price? Does Trump? Maybe, but not millions or even 10's of billions, I'm guessing if you could get him 500 billion so he's the richest man in the world we might have to be worried lolol but that's the beauty of the situation that is way to cost prohibitive for just about everyone.
Like the plane and Trump he has planes helis Penthouses Golf Courses etc can you buy him with a plane? Not a chance, nor more than you could buy me or you with a nice car.
Ill take it as a gift, but don't expect anything in return.
