@BioLayne Shaming people for obesity seems to work in Japan and South Korea. High social stigma about being overweight, and as a result they have low BMI populations with long life expectancies.
@AuronMacintyre What would the GOP get out of making an amnesty deal? I don't see why they'd bring it to the table. Is it just lobbying from businesses that use illegal alien labor?
@csuwildcat I didn't ask you to take responsibility. It's a fact. You will live with the consequences of those who participate in politics because you will not.
@chaotichermes That's just self indulgence. To get anything done politically you need to work with others. The politicians having the biggest influence in America are either left or right. Individuals can have their own beliefs but they'll get crushed by those who join teams.
@AlexEpstein Your history is revisionist. The US was not built for anyone who wanted freedom. The Founders were very explicit that only Whites could be citizens. You are telling people to not be proud of and loyal to their lineage.
Here's a very incomplete list of a few of my favorite things from Trump 2.0
- Cutting LEGAL immigration even more than illegal
- Border sealed
- $100K fee on H-1Bs
- Cut 90% of new H-1Bs
- Banned the PERM visa for Microsoft and other abusers
- Cut asylum entries at the border by 99%
- Net-negative migration for the first time in living memory
- Deporting 50K a month - a new record
- Rents and mortgage prices dropping in areas where ICE has raided
- 70 million Trump Accounts started
- Sued Harvard for anti-white racism, settled with Yale
- The White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud has identified $250 billion in fraud
- $160 billion in recoveries and clawbacks
- Fentanyl deaths cut in HALF

- Protecting biological reality and women's sports
- Dismantling USAID
- Lowest homicide rate since 1900
- Fewest federal employees since 1966
- Abolished DEI in government employment
- Surging and surpassing military recruitment goals
- Locked in the 2017 tax cuts and added no tax on tips, overtime, and “no tax on Social Security.”
- Record domestic oil and gas output
- Record new business startups
- $1.6 trillion in new manufacturing investment since 2025
What I miss?
@JohnMHawk@memeticsisyphus So you acknowledge they didn't create the problems, you're just upset they didn't fix them. That's true with every generation. The people that gave us the policies I listed also didn't abolish the Federal Reserve, the income tax or birthright citizenship.
