OK Dems, my 2028 vote is up for grabs. I know it’s early, but here’s how I see your opening offer… Vote for you and I get:
- The elimination of the US border, bringing in tens of millions more illegals. Anybody who can get to this country automatically gets taxpayer funded social services.
- Fraud at an intergalactic scale. Politicians, government workers, government contractors, and entities affiliated with the government stealing hundreds of billions (if not trillions) of taxpayer dollars, a portion of which is funnel back to the Democratic Party to fund campaigns and election rigging.
- Completely unsecured elections. Anybody with a pen can mail in a vote. No matching signatures, ID, or even proof of citizenship needed. No questions asked.
- Censorship of any non-state approved media (propaganda) outlet. No access to counter narratives and coordinated suppression of facts that don't support the government's official position.
-Gender insanity where we can’t define what a woman is. There are no such things as women’s sports anymore and kids not old enough to watch the Avengers without parental guidance can destroy their reproductive organs without even notifying their parents.
- State and local prosecutors that are brazenly soft on crime and treat criminals with more respect and dignity than victims.
- Endless wars with no effort to negotiate peace in any of the hotspots around the world - just more weapon sales and laundered money.
- No FDA or CDC oversight
- More negligently negotiated trade deals that are completely one-sided in favor of our competition.
- A return to the manipulation of economic, and crime statistics to tell us the economy is doing great, and the streets are safe when we can see with our own two eyes the opposite is true.
There’s more but I think that’s a good summary. I’ll admit it a tempting offer, but, like I said it’s early. I think I’m going to hold out to see if you can sweeten the pot a little.
@clem014@JFreshHockey Finding a way to get through to a team that no one has ever been able to and have them win the historically toughest division is COY deserving, The Pens are in a much weaker division and have leaders so seasoned they are essentially assistant coaches at this point.
@JFreshHockey Lindy goes from last place in Dec. to winning the historically competitive Atlantic with the BUFFALO FREAKING SABRES and you casually dismiss it. Then go on to say Muse took a team from the basement to "home ice" (in a crap division & with Crosby / Malkin) like its hero work????
@RobertGKepes@Crypt0_Facts@oliverburdick If you are seeking answers I’d suggest a non-denominational church. Not all of them are great but there are people there who can go deep into the beliefs. Or you can DM me and we can chat somehow live.
@RobertGKepes@Crypt0_Facts@oliverburdick I have wrestled with all of these questions and I have a satisfactory understanding of the “why”. This will sound like a total cop out but the answers to these complicated questions are not something that can be typed in a short tweet.
@Crypt0_Facts@RobertGKepes@oliverburdick I’d ask, without any condescension, have you studied the Bible? I used to think I understood Christianity, but until I really read the books and then had help understanding the context and meanings, I wasn’t really educated at all. It’s vastly different than I thought.
@Crypt0_Facts@RobertGKepes@oliverburdick It’s a valid question. I’ll never be able to “prove” any of what I think I understand. I do know that when I focus on Jesus and his teachings my life seems to be filled with real joy. If I practice his teaching all of my relationships improve.
@Crypt0_Facts@RobertGKepes@oliverburdick Sorry for the delayed response. I don’t spend a lot of time on X and you are the first person I have responded to in ages. I find it to be mostly Ia cess pool in here.
@Crypt0_Facts@RobertGKepes@oliverburdick There is so much more, but that's the shortest answer I can write. I encourage anyone to open their mind. It can start with a simple sincere prayer. "Heavenly Father, I struggle to believe. If you desire me for your kingdom, I ask that you show me the path. my heart is open."
@Crypt0_Facts@RobertGKepes@oliverburdick I shared with you there have been many miraculous prayers answered including medical miracles with no explanation - not in some fantasy world - right in my own community. Also my own personal experiences with holy interactions verified by others with similar experiences.
