I have seen a bunch of this guys video's on extreme sports. Did not know he was alt right. Powerful video on how he educated himself and left the alt right movement.

trump had a rally in NYC and was full of racist speakers.

Comedian Tony Hinchcliffes set was full of racist remarks. He called Puerto Rico an Island of garbage. 9% of NYC is Puerto Rican. Bad Bunny Just came out for Harris after he saw what Tony said.

This perfectly explains what we talk about in this thread of how economies typically end up better under democratic or liberal governments.. although it takes immense amounts of time for it to reflect that because infrastructure isn't built overnight.

Not to say I support Trudeau for example... but the fallacy of thinking Conservatives in general are better at money is inarguably false ideologically and backed by historical economic data.

The same could be said about liberals and social issues.

Social issues come from economic disparity, which is a prime goal of conservative ideology.

This reminds me of something like the 3rd BC Conservative candidate that made racist remarks towards First Nations people / Muslims, and the candidate is in a vote recount at Juan de Fuca - Malahat.

I used to think people like these are just too stupid to know when to keep their mouths shut. But increasingly, I think they either:

- really think it is OK to make these racist remarks, or
- are doing it intentionally because they think it'll draw support

These people make me sick.

That cunt didn't even thinly veil the racism. People who vote for someone like that speak loud and clear, they really have no issue with racists, or are racists.
Like the guy that posted that sandy hook was a hoax and called Palestinian children inbred walking time bombs and HE WON his riding. These voters are trash fucking people if you don't think that's a dealbreaker. Pieces of fucking shit.

Yah people who can overlook stuff like that just for "change" or to "stick it to the left" are total morrons.

I'm obviously liberal minded... but if a Lib candidate said that type of shit or did something totally egregious, I wouldn't vote for them. Or if the Conservative candidate in my riding made a lot of sense and seemed like the best representative then yah I would vote for them despite not liking their party in general.

Which is worse:
- Knowing this piece of shit said these things and still voting for him; or
- Not knowing at all how big of a piece of shit he is and voting just because of x party.

I honestly don't know.

That's exactly the kind of stand-up Tony Hinchcliffe does that's nothing new or exciting on his part he actually probably toned it down a bit if anything. Why they thought he would be a good choice to go up and say those things and think it would help the party is a bit of a head scratcher though.

One of the things that got my attention from Harris and Walz rallies is that Tim Walz is not afraid to lash out against Trump's biggest supporters.

Walz joked about Elon "jumping around and skipping like a dipshit" at one of Trump's rallies. Walz made the joke at a Democrat rally in Madison, Wisconsin.

Again, goes to show how bad the opposing candidate is.

Regardless of how “crazy” incumbent guy is, if other choice is some useless fresh out of school poli-science grad, people aren’t gonna care about the racist shit because they know the other person is useless.

No it just shows the voters are dumb or assholes, or both. You think these people know a lick of fuck about the other candidate other than some smear ads the read on their groupthink FB page? You're fuckin delusional if you think that.

Depends, I don't give a fuck about someone's religion if it has no effect on their policy making.
If they are talking about banning gay marriage and abortion because Christ doesn't like it, chances are they are also the racist one.

IMO, anyone who even mentions faith etc. as their guiding principle in terms of what they believe in as their public persona as a political candidate, that’s too much.

My con candidate in my riding, his second line was about his “faith”

No thank you.

Literally picking garbage among garbage

That's what's so easy these days in today's political climate. They're usually the same person.

Does the US election affect us that much? I was at a work meeting and the CEO mentioned something about bringing a tv to view the election during our retreat and some people were legit triggered saying they would have anxiety and shit

It probably affects us more than our federal election.
