Does Anyone Like Kamala?

It amazes me the number of people who have never visited NYC in their lives... who try to convince me that NYC is an urban hellscape where you take your life into your hands every day. They are convinced my actual real life experiences are false.
I live in NYC half the year and AVL the other. Neither is the place where I’d most like to live (Antigua, Guatemala). Most of what I hear said about either one is inaccurate.
 
What’s crazy is that such a large percentage of the general voting population has fallen prey to right-wing propaganda such that they believe in falsehoods like Haitian immigrants stealing people’s pets and eating them.

Objectively, there should be no contest. But it’s hard to “reach ordinary people” when so many of them are brainwashed by propaganda.
Many folks are the left are brainwashed too. Many people on this very board thought Biden was perfectly fine up until the debate. Because their news wouldn’t report how obviously unfit he was.
 
How do you feel about Trump and other Republicans and “conservatives” spreading lies about the aid and relief reaching Western North Carolina (and SW Virginia, Eastern Tennessee, N. Georgia, Georgia, Upstate South Carolina, and Florida)?

Your presidential choice (and his staff, family, and supporters) are spreading LIES about FEMA, the National Guard, local law enforcement, local fire departments, etc.

Do you support or condemn these lies?
I think we collectively have no idea exactly what’s going on in western NC right now. Why would you automatically assume your chosen news is reporting the truth and the other side is reporting lies?

That is a constantly evolving situation where many people still haven’t been found and can’t communicate.

Reminds me of when liberal news media tried to portray anyone who thought COVID came from a lab leak was a conspiracy theorist. Or that anyone who believed Hunter Biden’s laptop was significant was a conspiracy theorist. Or that anyone who believed Biden was senile was a conspiracy theorist.

At least let the tragedy play out a little more before you get egg on your face, again….sometimes it’s okay to say “we don’t know yet”
 
Better question is does anybody really like Trump, or are you just so desperate for something to pull for that you latched onto the idea that the Apprentice was real so that you could fill the void in your life and try to own those smarter kids in school after all these years?
 
Do you honestly find trump charismatic and likable?

I like her message of looking forward and working on policies that help the middle class.

Trump starts every sentence with "I" and doesn't give a shit about any of the poors, he just wants the praise and worship.
I definitely find Trump charismatic although I don't find him likable.
 
That is crazy. But it is even crazier when they falsely believe their own lived experience is a hellhole. Like how brainwashed do you have to be to believe what you read on the internet is true and what you physically observe and experience on a day to day basis is false.

It is as if they are wearing MAGA glasses that colors everything they see.
Yes and these are the same people who are willing to vote against their own better interest.

Like the maga lady I saw interviewed who lost her and her husbands health insurance under ACA because of some change that trump put in place. YET, when asked she said she would still vote trump, even though her husband's medical bills were going to bankrupt them.

Which side actually put out lies for political gain when discussing the situation in western NC?

I'm pretty sure it's lying JD and lying trump spreading the lies for political gain.

I agree STFU and help these people, don't start lying about how FEMA funds are spent, especially when trump used FEMA funds for his war on the border.

As far as the source of COVID, at that time it wasn't important. What was important was a vaccine, which many pubs were against.

There's still basically nothing from hunter's laptop, if it were so damming, why hasn't Biden been indicted?
 
A couple of years ago I was at a work conference where a coworker was describing an issue he had at airport security because he had forgotten he was carrying his spare clip of ammunition.

When I asked him why he needed a spare he started to tell me how "they come at you in waves" and a single clip isn't going to be enough, and you need to carry two. He was from TX and the "they" were illegal immigrants or MS13 or some other damn fool thing.

Dude had a fantasy film running in his head 24/7 where he was a hero gunning his way through waves of slightly browner people than he was, who were intent on rape, slaughter, and mayhem.

What a ******* mental hellscape.
i judged a fishing tournament last friday and there was a guy on one of the teams in my area who had a sidearm on his hip the entire time....while surf fishing out on the relatively deserted outer banks beaches in October. my friend/client who rode with me and helped me judge said he wears it 24/7.

so many of these people are just completely unhinged.

People are saying nothing happened in the Mountains

During Covid (April ‘20 to August ‘20), I was waiting outside the Left Bank Butchery in SAXAPAHAW for my turn (small place, they let 2 customers at a time come in pre-vaccines).

Four of us were outside waiting. I was next.

Up walks this fat guy and his less than svelte family…..right for the door……ignoring the 4 of us lined up on the sidewalk.

As he reached for the door, I said, “There’s a line waiting to go in. Four of us.”

His response, “I don’t put up with this Covid BS.”

Me: “Well, the 4 of us ahead of you do “put up with this COVID BS. The line is down there.”

The fat phuck was open-carrying……..in the crime-ridden village of SAXAPAHAW at 3:00 pm on a Sunday.

I so loved the owner that day…..he saw the guy cut the line….sent him right back out. The Karen was yelling that he’d never come back.
 
Did y'all know that there are ppl out there that ---honest to their (god) --- believe that if you're not maga, you're mentally ill?

I started my LLM in Health Law just before covid hit -which was a combined degree for both lawyers and non-lawyers who were getting a Masters in Health Policyv- of course covid hit and when it did all my classes went virtual. This online shit is where I met my (thankfully) ex-gf who is/was a cardiatric nurse for a very large Chicago hospital system. She was SOOO convinced that Chicago is unsafe she wouldn't go further than O'Hare otherwise she, a fair-haired maiden of the west, was certain to be kidnapped, raped, and ultimately murdered (or sold into sex slavery - at the young age of 43) by roaming gangs of black or brown folk because that's what she read on some right-wing BS website. I actually laughed because I didn't think anyone would be that dumb...nope she was serious. She also believed covid was a farce and/or that it was man-made and all sorts of shit that only Q-anon morons believe.

Needless to say the relationship didn't last
