Culture

[TorontoGold]

I was definitely not alive in the 50s. The only thing I associate with it is what I saw in sitcoms. I'm thinking like Andy Griffith (well nevermind, maybe Andy griffith was 1960s. I guess switch it to leave it to beaver....). So when I associate things with the 50s I'm thinking community, pies, family, cool cars, jobs for everyone, thriving post ww2 economy. When we see an idealized past in Back to the Future, I wouldn't automatically assume it is touting segregation. That would be a reach of all reaches. Stuff like that. The last thing that ever crosses my mind is segregation. Can't we basically talk about any time in the history of humans before 1960 and say there was either slavery or segregation in some form? So to associate the 50's with a longing for segregtion seems captain fucking insano.
Btw, this is why the left fucking sucks/has gone too far. Instead of the 50s being a wholesome idealized era, now someone is a creepy segregationist if they say it was a nice time in America. The right has its issues but the left is mentally sick.

Tracey, buddy/darling, this isn’t even remotely what anyone is saying. You’ve gotten yourself worked up about imaginary issues about how the Left is mentally weak. I stated actual positions people on this board have. Please show us who is mentally sick here.

there are Christian Nationalists.

Texas will require public school classrooms to display Ten Commandments under bill nearing passage

The House has approved Senate Bill 10 even though a similar Louisiana law was deemed unconstitutional. Supporters say Christianity is core to U.S. history.

SHARIA LAW THO!

 

[Irish#1]

. Me being emotional? Tracey, you should look back through these threads and see who’s freaking out about “the west is falling” etc.

Who would that be?

 

[TorontoGold]

Who would that be?

Do you need to ask? Yourself, Cal, Sea Turtle, Blazers.

I have you jotted down for more anti-muslim than the West is falling.

One insulted millions of Christians under the guise of artistic expression. The other is a digital meme — satire, symbolism, maybe even what some call a joke. But because it’s Trump, the left clutches pearls and spews nonsense.

It’s not blasphemy. It’s Photoshop. Calm down.

I see.

Mocking a specific religion is only mocking a specific religion when the person doing the mocking is not on your “team”.

That is rather convenient.

 

[Bluto]

Does anyone on the left have a sense of humor anymore?

I see.

“Piss Christ” is a pretty great photo in my opinion. US Christians lost their minds over it.

The Trump meme is lowbrow mockery and US Christians are defending it.

I’m not really offended by either.

 

[Bluto]

It's very funny that the catholics who are up in arms in offense over the Trump photo also think that abortion is a right that should be protected by the government lol

Or those who support the “sanctity of life” while at the same time cheering on Israel in Gaza which includes the starvation of children.

I think I’ve met two people during the course of my life who did not engage in some form of cognitive dissonance when it came to their religious beliefs.

 

[Bluto]

Gee, I thought it was only the extremist that didn’t like western culture.

The current administration seems to hate “western culture” in my opinion.

Let’s see, they really hate Europe in its present form, they hate the conclusions reached using the European style scientific method, they really hate western academia and various strains of western philosophy (post modernism is kinda stupid I’ll given them that) as well as economic theory, and they seem to increasingly hate western medicine.

They love Christianity though, which ironically enough did not originate in Europe and the center of which it could be argued was in the Middle East for a couple hundred years and then replaced actual indigenous European culture(s).

The point is that the 50’s weren’t great for a lot of people. So when MAGA claims that things were great, some people are going to bring up the facts. Women did not have rights, blacks did not have rights, poverty was outrageous, etc.

Best part about the 50's. Insane asylums. At the time they were cruel, and a bit unethical. Today would be a great time to reopen a few, only for the completly insane people. I'm sure Fauci would be a great first administrator. He could do all of his experiments on the legally Insane, Instead of the the public.
Let's start with the people who want to traffic children, and have children change their gender.

 

[Polish Leppy 22]

Don’t be obtuse. You know goddamn well what a whataboutism is. I was speaking about segregation in the 50’s and you took a detour and some how ended up at Democratic pols supporting terrorism. But at least you admit you can’t defend MAGA.

Good job naming a Democratic pol. Now prove she supports Hamas. Make sure you supply receipts.

It's not obtuse at all and wasn't a detour. It was a simple comparison. You struggle to put things into context, which is a you problem.

I can support some policies of MAGA while disapproving of others. Another wild concept, right?

There's a reason Tlaib was censured last year. Go check it out.

 

[Polish Leppy 22]

You need to stop putting words in my mouth. You’re becoming pathetic.

Those were exactly your words. I'm simply referencing them in terms of how moronic of a statement it was and, again, how it lacked context.

 

[Irish#1]

I have you jotted down for more anti-muslim than the West is falling.

No, as I’ve said before I’m not anti Muslim. What I’m against is their unwillingness to accept our culture and blend theirs into ours. Catholics, Baptists, Lutherans, etc. all adapted, but Muslims don't need to? I would say what is happening in Europe is a bigger issue than you'd like to admit, but there are instances in the U.S. to start the same thing. Have you heard of "Epic 2/ Epic Ranches City"? There's already a group planning/trying to build "Epic Ranches City" in the north Dallas area that is restricted to Muslims only and ruled by Sharia law. How is that blending, assimilating and adopting to the culture and laws of the U.S.?

Cornyn Calls on DOJ to Investigate EPIC City Following Accusations of Religious Discrimination, Sharia Law | Senator Cornyn

News AUSTIN – U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon urging the Department of Justice (DOJ) to open an investigation into the East Plano Islamic Center’s (EPIC) planned Muslim community...

She used the term "from the river to the sea"...which both sides have used in different ways for the last......nearly 100 years. In fact, Jewish people were the original ones to use the term. Since then it's been used by various groups for various reasons with various meanings/extremes. Interesting though that you can't provide simple proof of her supporting Hamas.

 

[BuaConstrictor]

Followed by...

THAT IS NOT A REQUIREMENT TO LIVE IN THE UNITED STATES.

Catholics, Baptists, Lutherans, etc. all adapted, but Muslims don't need to?

No. They do not.

I would say what is happening in Europe is a bigger issue

Literally nothing is happening in Europe. You keep saying this asinine racist thing but all you don't ever actually provide any proof of it besides racist Twitter accounts that claim Muslims are trying to lynch Jews in Bern (they aren't)..or England has more brown people now.

The horror.

are instances in the U.S. to start the same thing.

No. There isn't. There are more instances of CHRISTIANS trying to implement their belief systems than Muslims. You ignore those though..I wonder why?

Hmm....

"Epic Ranches City" in the north Dallas area that is restricted to Muslims only and ruled by Sharia law.

1. You're wrong. As usual. You're just fucking lying.
"EPIC's attorney, Dan Cogdell, says the proposed community is open to anyone, and residents would not be required to adhere to Sharia law and would be free to practice or not practice any religion."


Fun fact check for you...since all you fucking do is post incorrect shit, you fucking idiot.

-Abbott said: The development will impose “Sharia” law. Community planners say no, it won’t.
On Feb. 24, Abbott posted about the project on X. “To be clear, Sharia law is not allowed in Texas,” he wrote. “Nor are Sharia cities. Nor are ‘no go zones’ which this project seems to imply. Bottom line: The project as proposed in the video is not allowed in Texas.”

"Yasir Qadhi, resident scholar at the East Plano Islamic Center, is involved with the EPIC City project. Qadhi told The News in February that the only laws the community will enforce will be Texas and federal ones. They are not seeking to impose religion on anyone.

“Sharia” is the name for the moral rules laid out by God in Muslim Scriptures, and there is no universal agreed-upon list of “Sharia” laws."


One would think that if you truly cared about this issue you could spend...oh...30 seconds researching it at all and find out if your fears are valid. Instead, you don't research anything, post fear mongering shit, and continue to be a vile piece of garbage. Not only are you an idiot, ignorant, and racist...but you're also just fucking lazy. Killer combination.

Go fuck yourself.

2. Minorities always have have and still have enclaves in major cities. This isn't new. It's not controversial. China Town still exists. Large portions of NYC are still Jewish enclaves and even still use rabbinical courts. We've already covered this.




Congrats on continuing to be a racist piece of shit though.

"Their" - That is literally branding the entire religion. What is 1 good thing that you think that Islam does for the world? That chicken is literally you freaking out about Muslims lol.

What would you say that culture is? Because it sure as shit isn't based on religion. The US is amongst the most diverse countries in the world. I would say the US culture is one of enterprise, and it seems like Muslims are doing quite well when they immigrate. They come over and contribute to the economy and they get educated. Republican's are supposed to be the ones that "don't see color" and "stay out of my business and just work hard", why does that change when someone isn't Christian?

Thanks for joining the discussion. Plenty on here really illustrate your closing remark.

Wait! What? When did that happen? Now I'm against Jews? lol

Which is worse? Being mentally ill or being an awful parent? We know what your children would say…

The great thing about children growing into adults is when they start to acknowledge their parents were right on so many things. I am very anti-bumper sticker but my daughter put a "this car is fueled by liberal tears" sticker on her car anyway. When her window got smashed at school by some SeekNDestroy type loser she got a taste for why you keep your politics off your unattended property. Derelicts love to operate in the shadows and you will never see them coming. Don't make yourself a target and be vigilant. This is why Kyle Rittenhouse was not surprisingly 3-0 in degenerates on the other end of the barrel and why your ilk were so bent out of shape over his actions.

I should’ve known Kyle Rittenhouse was your hero. And speaking of not making yourself a target, you should probably heed your own advice. Every little tidbit you reveal about your life enables someone to get one step closer. You never know what could happen. Maybe somebody has watched Inglorious Basterds (sic) one too many times and wants to go hunting? Or maybe someone wants to free some children from their abusive father? Who knows what goes through the minds of subhuman, mentally ill, greasy “imp?”

Inshallah.

The kids would be better off.

You do know that’s a ridiculous statement don’t you?

This Is the UK. Once the financial capitol of the world.

 

[Gladiator]

This Is Insane. Democrats In some states want small sharia law cities in several areas of the country.
Trump bad. It's all we hear, while this is coming to America.

 

[Gladiator]

Nice whataboutism. Now, show me proof that ANY Dem politician supports Hamas.

She doesn't condemn

 

[TorontoGold]

If this Is a team you are fighting for. No words can discribe the reality.





This Is the religion that Americans can't stand for. They want their own cities In TX, and they want Sharia law, In those specific walls.
This Is the land of the free and a melting pot of minds that come together to become 1 nation under whichever God you choose.
When they involve children. Some would say that's a crime. I guess some would argue this, and that's insane.

Why do you believe all Catholics support kids having kids at 14? Why are these nasty people supporting wedding off their kids just like Mary had Jesus at such a young age. I can’t believe you would defend such a thing. I guess you believe in kid moms.

See how stupid that type of argument is making? You probably can’t see it, but those that read your insane posts that think that Muslims support children marriage should probably understand how stupid it is. You like a few others on here, think Muslims are just sharia law freaks who want to bang kids, but if anyone applied your logic to other religions you’d lose it.
