    What an absolutely silly remark. Humans have been in existence for tens of thousands of years and have never ceased killing or otherwise shitting on each other. So to answer your "question", yes, in general it is too difficult for humans to learn morals. But some us try on an individual basis. Maybe someday we will ascend to your lofty plain.........

    If you are an absolutist, you'll never be happy with any political party or system of government. Which is fine, you don't have to be.
    Politics is, by definition, a series of compromises. That's what it is.
    If you expect it to be something else, you are the one who isn't understanding the situation.

    I've never used the ignore function. On any site. I don't hold grudges or judge people based on their Internet posts.

    I don't need a safe bubble which only reinforces my personal views. I appreciate and enjoy discourse and debate with those who have opposing views. The only way society can improve itself without debate among opposing views is authoritarianism (even though it likely wouldn't be better and it certainly wouldn't last and would devolve into a horror story).

    I oppose authoritarianism more than pretty much anything else and that's why I vote.

    You don't see peaceful protestors on campus getting beaten and arrested? Neo-Nazis have been protesting on campuses for decades without an issue. In fact, they were protected by police for exercising their freedom of speech right.

    As far as I've seen, that's local, not federal. Biden doesn't run the NYPD.

    Not by federal agents. If you have some evidence of that please share the link.

    The examples I shared were federal agents under the direction of the president of the United States.

    A recent poll came out about Biden's historically low 38% approval rating. But the fact that 38% of the country is stupid enough to still support him is a sign of how fucked we are.

    It's sad that we are so stupid we can't understand that we need a sociopathic criminal as dictator. SAD!

    So why is he calling everyone antisemitic then? He's the President. Show some leadership.

    I know - I'm thinking about getting professional help so I can understand why it is that I don't understand. I mean what's not to like about a misogynistic, racist, egotistical megalomaniac who want's to be president?

    Eric Trump said he can't find the skin lotion he wants in New York and it's Biden's fault.

    There are actual, tangible, real life issues and policies that affect people outside of your own personal disdain for one man’s unsavory character flaws. It may not be ideal, but some people are willing to sacrifice good character in order to afford groceries and a place to live, or not have to watch an old racist stumble around while his handlers push him (and us) down the path to ww3.
