You're assuming -- incorrectly -- a whole lot about me that I never said.
You also didn't understand the meaning behind why I said you've chosen to support the fascists side.
I'm not here to start fights with internet strangers so I'm not going to poke you further. Let's just both do our best to improve and educate ourselves. Good luck to you. I hope you can figure out what I meant.
I would suggest to compare them both when they talk or when they are in the public.
It's like you've never watched a video of Trump speaking. You could go to Youtube right now and do that, if you weren't so busy bending over backwards to defend Trump.
You definitely win the most dishonest argument of the day award.
“He did not remember, even within several years, when his son Beau died.”
This one just pisses me off. It's framed so dishonestly.
I can recall extremely specific things about when people I know died. What the weather was, what I was wearing, what video game I was playing when I heard the news, and so on. But I couldn't necessarily pull the right year out of my brain without checking. Or necessarily even the date for some people.
I promise that Biden remembers the death of his son in whatever specific way is meaningful to him. It might not be "on this day/month/year." It might be "on a Tuesday" or might be "a cold snowy day when I was baking bread." I have no idea. But this just isn't how memory works, and it's hurtful, evil even, to print something that dishonest. It boils my blood to read such dishonest reporting.
It baffles my mind that people would pay $18 USD for that shit. I visited the US last year and while prices in general had definitely gone up since the last time I was there, there is absolutely no justification to pay $18 for McDonald's. It's crazy.
You can have good dictators, even if they are rare.
Hard disagree there.
But it really depends on what you value as good and bad.
For instance, if you think that people have an inherent right to have a say in how they are governed, then a dictatorship can never be good because it infringes on that right in the most serious of ways.
If you think a stable and sustainable system of government that will last beyond the life of a few leaders is important, then dictatorship is not a good system, because one good dictator creates no guarantee that the next dictator will be good, and establishing a system of dictatorship affords a bad dictator that much more power to ruin lives.
Dems and Republicans are identical parties on economic policy (note I said economic, not all policies).
Patently untrue.
I mean, I get what you're trying to say. That both parties serve the interests of the rich few over the majority. But it's just false that they are identical parties on economic policy.
Isn't this Castro the same guy who keeps suing to block Trump from getting on the ballot? He's nothing but a clown doing this for attention. These aren't serious lawsuits, and if anything they end up hurting the cause more than anything, by making a mockery of the situation and making it harder for legitimate complaints to get the attention they deserve.
That's pretty much because you're an IT guy. You're in an industry that AI won't replace any time soon.
If you were a cashier, or a stock clerk, or a busboy, you should be terrified by AI. The speed at which those jobs are already vanishing is astounding. The other day I was at a restaurant, and I never interacted with a human. The ordering was done by touch panel at my table, the food was delivered to the table by a robot and I paid at an automated terminal. I don't know how many staff were on duty but it had to be a fraction of what it would have been a decade ago. I bought clothes last week and there was one employee in the store, overseeing the self-checkout lanes (but really just sitting idly by in case anyone had issues). I read an article yesterday about how robots are now being distributed to convenience stores that can clean, stock, and reorder items, so these shops will pretty soon have only one employee in them.
The gimmicky shit that your browser AI and chatbots can do is nothing compared to how this is already revolutionizing the world.
The author wasn't making a logical argument, so there's no need to address his "logic."
He's a tourist who spent some time in a foreign country, and came to some very sweeping, rash conclusions about an entire country's culture. It's shallow, judgmental, and tragically commonplace among self-centered tourists who think they can understand an entire culture after 2 weeks living in a hotel on someone else's dime. I am so done with the "white dude waxes philosophical about Asian country" trope.
"It is the result of Korea maximizing the bad points of Confucian culture and the shortcomings of capitalism."
"In Confucian culture, there are no individuals....
"In Confucian culture, we do not try to empathize with mental health problems...
"When you learn Korean culture...
I love when tourists (let's be real: rich, white, American tourists) visit a country and come back a fucking expert on the culture, filled with all the judgmental wisdom to dish out why that culture is inferior to their own.
In other words, this asshat thinks that 1-year-olds should be forced to carry a pregnancy to term.
Correct. And I didn't say that. I chose my words carefully and I meant them.
This is why I pointed out that you have not understood the meaning of what I said.
I still sincerely hope you learn how the US political system functions so that you can understand the outcome of your choices.

Spoken like a true MAGA believer, or at least such a useful idiot that the difference is indistinguishable.
You may not "vote for the duopoly" but you've clearly chosen to support the fascist side of it.
I sincerely hope you learn how the US political system works before the election so that you can understand what the outcome of your actions will be.

And Burger King is even cheaper.

Crybaby fascist Republicans: "Cake shops shouldn't have to do business with people they don't like!!!"
Also crybaby fascist Republicans: "Disney should have to do business with me no matter what I say or do!!!"
I can't wait to see Disney counter-sue these fuckers for this ridiculousness.
The fuck are you talking about?
You're replying to things I didn't say. Are you hearing voices or something?
Try again. Do better.
They have the right to do so.
That is a bad thing. But talk about a dictatorship?? That's one person suppressing everybody else.
Hard disagree there.

Non-wankers, in fact.

Bingo. And this time we're the horses.
It's already here, my dude. Not every store, but some are doing this now. It's just a question of how fast it will spread.
