Game Changer! - Page 14

Wrong answer Carlin, you did't say that none of his plans will be implemented, you specifically stated that he's not saying them and being accusatory of anyone who says otherwise of being partisan and misconstruing his words! You are claiming that he's being misunderstood and he doesn't really mean what he's actually saying. I don't haunt only left wing sites, I find the right wing sites much more interesting, so my "news" sources are pretty well rounded. Along with that, someone else suggested that people hear things differently, depending on their bias toward any given candidate or situation, which actually explains a lot considering, but that person is operating from her own bias and using projection.

He either said those things or he didn't and parsing it as, "Oh, he can't do that and everybody knows it.", as the crowds cheer and people are being assaulted, while then denying that he's racist, based on the things he says, depending on the source reporting it, is some of the most jaw dropping cognitive dissonance I've ever witnessed, lol. Just wow!

Meanwhile, back at the ranch...

People who just don't know how to play a winning game strategy with their own lives often will display false confidence in their own abilities. One reason could be because they are applying their own rules, which have limits, inappropriately. Unfortunately, they then will be doomed to make the wrong conclusions, time and again.

Projection, my LOL.

Travels - you should go back and re-read carefully because your conflating two separate issues I've touched on. The first is the ridiculous racist narrative woven by the media, and the second is in reference to your Muslim issue which just isn't happening. If you'd like to assert racism due to the Muslim issue, you're going to have a difficult time. The bottom line is that he's a prick who doesn't care what's cultural acceptable to a contingent of people who believe hurt feelings are some sort of crime against humanity. That doesn't make him a racist. Although I agree that people hear things differently, it only reinforces the idea that we ought not leap off the Golden Gate when we get our feelings hurt. This is why the first thing I said to VK was in reference to the potential cultural difference between here and there, for example. A great deal of my point is that agenda-riddled journalists will take the opportunity to frame the narrative, especially if they can poke the most sensitive of areas. There's a lot of talk about "inciting". Personally, I'd like to see the politicians and journalists held accountable for the needless deaths that have resulted from their contrived "race war" over the past 3+ years.

I guess I'm the only one here who really didn't believe I was going to be able to keep my health plan?

"I don't think Carlin would recognize a "plain language
statement" if it stood up from its aisle seat and whacked
him as he walked past."

Hello there Hund -hope all is well.

Uh, guilty?!? Although not much gets by me in terms of language, I have been accused of missing the painfully obvious on more than one occasion. :)

Seems like Trump is a threat to those that hold the purse strings.  Which tells me he's NOT part of the establishment.   Good thing he wears a bullet proof vest.

I don't understand why Carlin defaults to agenda ridden journalists and framing narratives or whatever. I have never read an article on trump or care what journalists say.

I listen to the words out of his mouth that he repeats to different audiences, same sound bites reinforced multiple times.

Why Carlin keeps avoiding this and inserting framing narratives and agenda ridden journalists.....blah, blah, blah just seems like a diversion and a school of red herrings.

Go ahead Carlin talk about everyone else's failures to decode simple direct messages from the primary source. Makes me wonder what stunt you are trying to achieve.

Sounds like Carlin is the one reading journalists' contrived interpretation.
I don't need to read what anyone writes after listening to the live broadcast of trump's spewing bs.

Please post links to these reputable stories. You know the non-contrived ones. Would love to see you back up the bs you spew.

I don't even own a TV but I do listen to Trumps speeches online. So, my opinion of him is formed from what he has said and what he doesn't say. Plus, I thought he was an ass on his reality show but that hasn't caused me to attach the dreaded ism to him and his followers. Just listening to him is enough. Plus, when you look at the states that are really going for him, well, it isn't real hard to figure out unless you are blind in one eye and can't see out of the other.

I would also like to know how Christians can justify supporting someone who is pro choice. I would also like anyone to answer what he supports. What are his proposals beyond building walls and excluding people. He has to be the biggest bigot I have ever seen. But that is okay because he really doesn't mean what he says. Really? Just one proposal, anyone? If the man doesn't have visions beyond walls and exclusion, then why are we voting for him? Someone please give me one concrete thing he has said. Or are we only voting for him because he is a racist, bigot, misogynist and a buffoon?

 

So, someone please tell me why you are voting for him? What is he going to do to turn things around, since it is so bad out there surely he has ideas on how to go about this turn around or are you guys just following along because he says it????????????

 

 

An Open Letter to Donald Trump:

Mr. Trump,

I try my hardest not to be political. I’ve refused to interview several of your fellow candidates. I didn’t want to risk any personal goodwill by appearing to take sides in a contentious election. I thought: ‘Maybe the timing is not right.’ But I realize now that there is no correct time to oppose violence and prejudice. The time is always now. Because along with millions of Americans, I’ve come to realize that opposing you is no longer a political decision. It is a moral one.

I’ve watched you retweet racist images. I’ve watched you retweet racist lies. I’ve watched you take 48 hours to disavow white supremacy. I’ve watched you joyfully encourage violence, and promise to ‘pay the legal fees’ of those who commit violence on your behalf. I’ve watched you advocate the use of torture and the murder of terrorists’ families. I’ve watched you gleefully tell stories of executing Muslims with bullets dipped in pig blood. I’ve watched you compare refugees to ‘snakes,’ and claim that ‘Islam hates us.’

I am a journalist, Mr. Trump. And over the last two years I have conducted extensive interviews with hundreds of Muslims, chosen at random, on the streets of Iran, Iraq, and Pakistan. I’ve also interviewed hundreds of Syrian and Iraqi refugees across seven different countries. And I can confirm— the hateful one is you.

Those of us who have been paying attention will not allow you to rebrand yourself. You are not a ‘unifier.’ You are not ‘presidential.’ You are not a ‘victim’ of the very anger that you’ve joyfully enflamed for months. You are a man who has encouraged prejudice and violence in the pursuit of personal power. And though your words will no doubt change over the next few months, you will always remain who you are.

Sincerely,
Brandon Stanton

Oh, now that's pretty damned funny (or should I say rich )coming from one who only knows existence on an internet forum and can't possibly step out into the world and actually live. The saddest part is the denial and projection with no self reflection, a legend in one's own mind. There's a whole, big, wide world out there and life is built upon living, laughing, loving and being happy in your own skin. Some feel the need to build themselves up by thinking themselves better than they are and tearing others down (or so they think), but that's okay too, have at it :)
