Meh. Two sides of the same coin. Its just that the propaganda is different.
Great point, nobody can disagree with that. I would argue that Trump is the lesser of the two evils, since He upheld the constitution and the bill of rights. Biden is quite happy to sign all of that history away and hand the US over to the globalists who don't care about America at all.

I would argue differently, because I am a globalist.

Good. America is evil! ;)
That's a lie, you can't make a blanket statement like that. You may have had a bad experience with Americans, but you can't judge a whole country by the actions of a few.

You can thank America for stopping WW2 and giving the world peace, since 1945 when Japan was bombed into submission. America is the only country in the world which sends it's military all over the world to liberate civilian populations from brutal and tyrannical dictators.

You should be thankful for the peace and prosperity the US has given the world for the past 76 years

I won't hold that against you, since the enemies of freedom have been pushing globalism in every educational institution for over 60 years.

They never mention the 160 million murder victims during the 20th century alone. Have you ever wondered why millions of people are willing to die in the back of semi trailers trying to escape globalist-socialist countries. Why don't you or any other globalist ever consider migrating to those countries which have your ideal system of government.

Did you notice the ;) ?

These Untied States of America is nether good nor evil. Both claims are too simple.

And it is a lie that the USA stopped WW2. As it is a lie that the USA didn't stop WW2. You really like your subjective over-generalization, don't you? :D

It is a lie that your understanding of freedom, is the only version of freedom. Again with the over-generalization.

It seems to be degenerating into self-parody. I thought Giuliani at the garden centre outside the porno shop was the end. And then I thought Giuliani's hair dye was the end. And then I thought that guy in furs with horns, inside the Capitol, was the end. But no. Not quite.

I dunno......... the speech outside the porno shop was the best, most joyful tv clip of the day..... the week.
If Steven Fry would run a comedy sketch like that it wouldn't work...... not close enough to possibility.

:p

The Adoration of the Golden Calf

Exodus {32:2} And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which [are] in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring [them] unto me. {32:3} And all the people brake off the golden earrings which [were] in their ears, and brought [them] unto Aaron. {32:4} And he received [them] at their
hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These [be] thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. {32:5} And when Aaron saw [it,] he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow [is] a feast to the LORD. {32:6} And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.

This is the lowest common denominator, when you have no legitimate point or argument you just call it "generalisation".
It's no good sitting on the fence and playing both sides, you will fall off when the heat is on

I am on no fence. I believe in democracy, I am just as a social democrat.

View attachment 48210
We can only be serving God or Mammon, there is no third option.

Most of the world worships Mammon, Trump and Biden are both part of Mammon worship. Anything made with hands or conceived in our hearts and minds or anything we hold in higher esteem to God is an idol.

i don't idolise Trump but I know he facilitates people to worship God, while the Liberals want to make it illegal to even proclaim what He said about anything.

There's no such thing as a "socialist democracy" these are diametrically opposed. This puts you back on the fence

Yeah, reading is not your strong side. I wrote social democracy, not socialistic democracy or even democratic socialism.

Social democracy is not socialistic democracy/democratic socialism.

But he looked even more bonkers and desperate in the hair dye incident.

And then the guy with horns, just roaring like an animal......

And now, the exquisite apotheosis of a personality cult of tacky bling..... :confused:

I have no idea who is the greater or lesser of two evils because the government and media only let us know what they want to let us know. I automatically assume from the outset that the politician is corrupt and all that matters is how affected we are by that corruption. The world is heading towards globalisation but I disagree with it because of how it affects the country. Politicians should solely focus on the country so that the country is self sufficient rather than be dependent on the economy and resources of a worldwide community of other countries which results in internal problems caused by external factor that have nothing to do with the country itself.

Ironically though, America was the cause of globalism as it wanted to create a worldwide capitalist system centred around the US. Now that is backfiring with China gaining power which makes the economy centred around China which is good for China but nobody else.

So I prefer economic isolation because it makes the individual country strong and increases the wellbeing of its people whereas a global society leaves individual countries and its people in shambles, struggling to survive.

The whole pro-Trump movement is a personality cult with beliefs similar to religion, including the Big Lie. It should not surprise us that some idiots would take it to the extreme of making a golden statue.
I would agree that some people would go to an extreme. "Pro-Trump movement is a personality cult" - I would disagree with. It is more of a statement of "tired of the same old politics".
