    Intellectually dishonest post. It’s expected though at this point, coming from the left.

    If you think creating answers to leading questions is anything other than dishonest, you’re kidding yourself…

      What does Confirmation Bias mean, again? Speak up for the cheap seats.

      There is nothing this person writes that isn’t caused by the current administration and its rabidly bigoted xenophobes, no economic problem not exacerbated dramatically by the cruel and stupid decisions made by those in power, and no promise reviewed that wasn’t made during campaign and repeated a thousand times.

        The impressive part is that they’ll still find a way to blame it all on the left, even if reality is in complete disagreement.

        That being said, I suspect the response you will get is: “that is all just a response to DEI, and wouldn’t have been necessary if it weren’t constantly pushed by the left”

      Knowing that the answer to these questions is dissonant with your worldview, you choose to attack the form in which it’s presented instead. Let’s rise above that.

      Explain. Detail for us exactly which parts of the post are dishonest, and how. Cite facts.

      Do it. I dare you.

      You won’t, though, because you can’t. You’re nothing but a troll spreading lies and you know it.

        Ill try my best friend. The first paragraph makes all of these negative points then asks “has your life gotten any better”… that would be called “leading the witness” in a court of law. Not to even mention the use of shock value buzzwords like “violently torn” “blamed for virtually everything” “brink of collapse”… it all plays on emotion and is very cheap and phony

          So you’re butthurt about her tone, but can’t refute any of her facts. Got it.

            Butthurt? Lol no, again, I was merely pointing out the intellectual dishonesty. And I did. Never tried refute anything, buddy.

          as a sacrifice to enrich the leadership class. have you asked any small business owners how they’re faring lately while corporations get personal perks using our taxes (as long as they make key donations to the right people?)? Follow the money. MAGA harnessed the anti-establishment right (tea party states rights libertarians) and successfully led them against their own values (personal autonomy, free speech, free market, small federal government).

            Let’s see, my dad has been a small business owner for over 40 years. Im also a small business owner, and 2 of my 3 brothers are as well. Lol. Certain small businesses are hurting right now, but there also some doing great. There are certain challenges though. Not going to argue with you
