A little tough and certainly premature as suspect he'll do better this time, and last time was wasn't shabby. Forget his stupid comments. Believe he's got a better measure of how to run things, likely more stable & loyal advisors with the house & senate behind him. Also suggest the left loves tokenism way more, e.g. BLM, MeToo, Free Palestine, 100% renewables by 2050.

Yup another left leaning media outlet trying to frame the election disaster as only due to cost of living from inflation. Nothing to do with extended lock downs in left wing states, excessive bureaucracy in so many areas, (DC voted 92% Democrat), environmental extremism, pithy foreign affairs, woke everywhere including education and porous borders. The left induced media continue to shoot own goals with their hubris, e.g. Biden was mentally fit as a fiddle, until everyone could see he wasn't and by then it was too late.

The Dangerous Prospect of RFK Jr.'s Influence on Global Health
Donga replied to Social Media's topic in World News
One huge area not even mentioned in the beat up is that RFK intends to reform packaged food, which is largely responsible for alarming obesity and climbing diabetes, worldwide. Well overdue. Big pharma needs a big stick taken to them and I do disagree with taking fluoride from the water supply, let's see if that comes about. The shrill emanating from the hypocritical Left and the complicit media is breathtaking and will take years for the average voter to put aside. But that tide is turning and Trump and Republicans just gave it a major shove 🤗 -
Think you need to consider the Left went too far, which Trump could see along with the impact on the economy and workers' lives. People who really care about the tenets of the left should look closely as to why the Democrats now represent the urban professional class - lawyers, professors, activists, public servants and care about "progressive" issues more than the economic realities, with their righteous posture, e.g. DEI and associated tokenism, environmental extremism, anti-west sentiments etc. Tend to find cancel culture more pronounced when trying to discuss issues with people who are stuck in their "left" mindset - they often can't articulate, is something they glean from various headlines and protest movements. No matter what their education, and as an old Leftie, I find them increasingly shallow, devoid of contextual history (e.g. western colonialism & slavery, where the West were late in the trade and the first to ban it) but above all seem to think they hold some moral or intellectual high ground. The Republicans now stand for the workers and Trump was able to achieve that despite being hounded and villified by most mainstream media. He's turned into a hero despite his obvious character shortcomings, which media highlight ad nauseam.

Trump's Climate Rollbacks and Renewed Fossil Fuel Push
Donga replied to Social Media's topic in World News
You crack me up Lacessit 😅 You started this with "I understand thermodynamics. Clearly you don't" , so yep, I responded on your "little word". Like a good new Leftie (in days of olde, Lefties cared mostly about workers and general equality not the crap of today) you say I'm shooting the messenger - where did that come from? Are you truly an oracle? More like a rabid sheep, amid tales of doom & gloom. And then you assert I'm as "dumb as a can of soup". Incredible. Btw - I believe we should do what makes sense to mitigate global warming but with some caveats: 1. Ramp up nuclear energy and recognise the limits of intermittent renewables 2. Stamp on the media, professors and teachers from their wild assertions, often far more alarmist than the IPCC 3. Foster more debate instead of the BS, "science is settled" oxymoron - lets start with temperature records and weather events -
I don't know nor really care about whether "he did it" - kept some files. I also don't think 34 payments to keep some high class hooker quiet should be termed 34 counts of felony. And morally believe Bill Clinton, who I admired and still do, did far worse with a recent uni grad in the White House. He paid the price you could say with impeachment, but find the constant moral barbs directed at Trump a tad shrill.

Trump's Climate Rollbacks and Renewed Fossil Fuel Push
Donga replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Haha so proud of your little word are we? -
Except all outgoing Presidents have done it to some degree, Biden on much the same level as Trump for Pete's sake. https://www.forbes.com/sites/brianbushard/2023/05/17/not-just-trump-and-biden-every-administration-since-reagan-mishandled-classified-records-national-archives-finds/ The Democrats don't get it - their abuse of the legal system and thinking celebrities would get them home, just shows how out of touch they really are. They got smashed, and not just in the main race.

Trump's Climate Rollbacks and Renewed Fossil Fuel Push
Donga replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Keep the reading The Guardian, BBC, The Economist, ABC, Sydney Morning Herald, CNN, MSNBC, NPR, The New York Times and all the other mainstream left media and you'll wallow in doom and gloom until to you shuffle off this mortal coil - likely believing Western civilisation brought this calamity along with slavery, and all the other miseries of the world. And please don't assume any moral high ground or intellect - totally unwarranted hubris. Or others might say... useful idiots. -
Four Thai Nationals Killed in Attack Near Israel-Lebanon Border
Donga replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Moderate Moslems must disassociate from the extremists, not just in Gaza but everywhere these cretins are allowed to wield jihadist power - Iran, Syria, Afghanistan, Somalia, Yemen, Iraq and in the West where extremist moslems are emboldened. Moslem extremism, i.e. doesn't recognise any other religion and sometimes against either Sunni or Shia, must be eliminated. People not seeing this are naive. If they're backing Hamas, or Hezbollah, or even some notion of From the river to the Sea, they are truly useful idiots for the extremists. -

Pardon? Israel withdrew from Gaza nearly twenty years ago, as agreed. Hamas brutally beat Fatah in the 2006 elections, on the platform of eradicating Israel - so tunnels, weaponry, command centres in schools, hospitals, one command tunnel was just below UNRWA Gaza HO. The UN is appalling useless at best, complicit at worst. Do you remember when Egypt occupied Gaza? You ought to read up a little more. -
Not terribly smart, cunning not savvy, hoping the TikTok younger folk will outweigh the experienced older folk and she's losing ground - including Black, Hispanic and male voters generally. The creative talent is wasted, and can be seen as patronising - the vast majority of peeps don't give a toss who Bruce or Beyonce vote for. Dems are done this time. Been too weak on many fronts. Trump will win but relax, only be for one term.

Murdoch empire influence is exaggerated continually by the left. In Australia, Sky News on TV is subscription, same for their website news, and have no radio. The left/Green/Free Palestine/Woke ABC have free to air TV, free web access and radio throughout the country. Fortunately their regional radio is not as biased as the capital cities. Sydney Morning Herald and The Age in Melbourne are not as biased as the ABC, but certainly not given to conservative views. The Guardian in Australia is not far removed from Al Jazeera in their view of the world. In US and UK there is a range of left wing media - BBC, The Guardian, Washington Post, CNN, New York Times. Murdoch knows his market and reaches out to them just as the others reach out to theirs. So why do left wing folk blame Murdoch when they lose an election, but unwilling to credit the support of the many friendly media when they win?
