Off Topic Politics Thread

Football is a geographic and not an idealistic pursuit. That said, Southampton voted Labour - so the balance of ideological views will swing to centre left.

 

Just because jabbo & loading don’t understand anything about the world, it shouldn’t stop them from supporting an amazing club like saints

 

Since then the name has already changed. Details are very limited at this time.

Patience is a virtue in these situations. As much as the lefty freaks want it to be a republican so they can control the damage to their own political viewpoints, it’s worth waiting.

A republican shooting trump makes no sense.

 

Ok AdolfoRama…

 

I really didn’t think your brazen hypocrisy could get any worse. But of course you keep plumbing new depths. The U.K. election and the Reform nonsense and the insane screaming of utter nonsense in Labour’s first week as part of a tantrum over Reform not winning was evidence of that.

I knew that you would refuse to believe it if it came out that the shooter was Republican. I posted as much even before this came out. I said “let’s just say it’s a right winger who is unhappy with Trump”. And I said that people would still deny it. And so you have

Thing is - you could have at least explained why you don’t believe it / think it is propaganda. Instead you have gone full MAGA cultist (although you have been for ages now - a complete bowing and scraping cultist who would lie in a puddle and let Trump walk over you). You’ve basically just stated it is propaganda because it doesn’t match your world view. “I don’t like it so it must be false”. That is patently absurd. Like full on crazy pills. And completely the opposite of everything you pretend to be (although everyone knows you are lying). You claim to be this enlightened free thinker who sees things everyone else doesn’t and isn’t a slave to the media. But you just believe exactly what you are told. It’s just that the people you believe without even the hint of a question are different to the ones who you accuse everyone else of believing.

Not that I should help you out here but, how about this - you have to register for a party in the US at some point I assume. We don’t do that here. Perhaps raise a question about when you do that and how often you have to and whether you actively have to change it? Or what the reasons might be that someone might register for the opposite. That would be a starting point if you really wanted to dismiss the idea that he was a registered Republican as propaganda. I don’t understand that registration system myself. It’s got something to do with primaries. But I don’t know if there is a way of preventing people registering for the “other side”. What consequences there are etc

But you are just interested in being an unthinking cult member with no original thoughts or opinions. You are in no position to accuse people of propaganda. Absolutely none.

 

Everyone is being a bit silly really. It’s a **** thing that happened. We don’t know the motives or leanings of the shooter (and probably never will). The right claiming foul over divisive rhetoric is deeply ironic.

The main thing is that some innocent guy has been killed. Everyone involved in the ****show over the pond needs to take a good long look at themselves.

 

I guess that's refreshing on some level. Still not refreshing to beat up on a poster for having totally different political views on a Football Forum.

 

If he could debate without insults it wouldn’t happen. And I mean debate - not post quotes from 1978 as proof giving a **** about society is evil.

 

There are far more people who think the same about you on here. You have utterly lost it over the past few years but the past few months has been a rapid acceleration. You claim everyone else is delusional despite being the most delusional person on here. You claim others don’t understand the world and you do when you just parrot the opinions of a select few fringe commentators and have no actual thoughts of your own. Half the time you don’t even seem to understand what country you actually live in with all the talk of US culture war issues.

You are an absolute master of projecting everything you are onto others and it’s almost sad to see.

Blocking you doesn’t even make sense because half the posts on here don’t make sense without seeing the latest dribbling nonsense that you have spewed out that people are responding to

I assume this is one of your only outlets for this kind of thing. You can’t be like this in real life. Because most people wouldn’t have it. They’d roll their eyes and change the subject

 

OK Captain Ego

What have seen / Heard to suggest he isn’t. Republican ?

 

Finally an adult in the room. But not sure about the we, in the US are the only ones who have take a long look at ourselves, living in glass houses and all that.

 

We took a step away from populism in the last election. We voted for sanity. You guys are about to re-elect the king of crazy.

 

Feeling it would seem. It doesn’t make sense so it can’t be true. News flash - it doesn’t make sense that Trump has even the slightest chance in a presidential race or that he won the first time. He directly insulted his voter base and admitted to assaulting women prior to his first election and won off the back of votes of people who thought he would stand up to them and cared about them despite being an aloof, selfish billionaire. The world doesn’t make sense. So “it doesn’t make sense” is not good enough

 

Oh I agree, the phrase that when the US sneezes, the UK catches a cold is very relevant, and far worse now with the advent of social media. It does seem to be a more advanced case in the States right now though. We just need to hope it’s not terminal.

 

Nothing in America currently makes sense

 

Nailed it.

 

This post is also delusional. Or at least I assume so because I’m not reading all of it

 

What's the point of being on a thread for political discussion then?

 

Fair comment up to a point SOB .

The poster in question is Never wrong according to him , slags off anyone who disagrees with him .

He’s also pig ignorant and automatically rude .

He also called out two other posters , why name them ?
