Yeah, its like in the United States if you call yourself a Marxist, people lose their minds. But, if you call yourself an Objectivist or an Ayn Rand fan, nobody bats an eye. And I’d submit that philosophy is wholly destructive as it would completely erode any type of basic trust in a society. And I think, a case of this, might very well be that clown that destroyed Sears with his Ayn Rand crap. Evidently he manage destroy even the most basic level of trust within that organization, to the point it couldn't function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ants Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 15 hours ago, GAROVORKIN said: Really and what happened in 2016? The voters kicked out the democrats. They put in the Republicans , alot of working class moderate voters whom the Democrats decided rather shortsightedly to ignore voted against them. You need to appeal to moderate voters or you don't win. Hillary Clinton was about as moderate as you could get. So isn't this an argument against what you're saying?

He likely feels his position is precarious. And he's a hardcore white nationalist near the center of our nation's power structure. The guy would likely fuck a pig on live television if it would keep him in his job. I read that he was in Trump's office near the time of the infamous Britain tweet. That's the kind of bullshit he wants to keep pulling, influencing Trump's tweets, as well as policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morpheus Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 10 minutes ago, GAROVORKIN said: Anyone who voted for Trump is not a centrist, no matter what they may say. You can’t vote for the openly extreme right white nationalist and then claim you chose him for his moderate views. That is not to say that anyone who voted for Trump is a white nationalist, but he never offered any kind of centrist platform. Even the less deplorable Trump voters excuse their choice by saying they thought he was an outsider who would bring change, they didn’t see him as a moderating force.

Bonnot OG Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Anyone that voted for trump is a bigot and enabler of white supremacy and white nationalism. And any white person that voted for him is a racist. they either saw his bigotry and agreed with it, or they couldn't give less of a shit about it because it didn't personally impact them.

Just because a candidate won the election doesn't mean he did so by picking up moderate voters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
