Polls: Society & Politics

I wonder if students in other countries are like this too?

Trump freezes for 34 seconds mid-speech

Is part of the reason because people find the theory that we came from primitive origins believable, and people associate black people with being primitive?

Basically I’m saying that people’s perception of black people can (to a certain extent) influence their believability of the theory even if it’s only half consciously thought of. (And maybe only thought of when the discussion arises)

And of course no one’s just going to say this thought out loud, for couple reasons: it’s weird to say this out of context, and fear that other would think it is offensive.

June 27th, CNN is hosting a presidential debate, and the requirements for participating in the debate is to be polling at least 15% in 4 different accepted polls and to be on the ballot in enough states to win 270 electoral college votes. Funny thing is, they forgot both Biden and Trump won't be on any state ballots till after their parties convention meaning the don't meet the requirement of being on enough ballots to win 270 electoral college votes.

you either have to hate your home country enough to leav it behind for good, or hate the country you're moving to to bring your country's culture, food, flag, language, and ethnicity with you

Last year some Democrat politicians from Washington state (not D. C.) were enamored with Australia's compulsory attendance to voting booths on election days, and decided to take it upon themselves to try and make it illegal to not vote. This proposal died in committee last year, but apparently that wasn't enough to deter them from pushing for it a second time.

The Democrat's official reason for pushing for this is that it will "enable people to vote who currently cannot" and "make people more informed by giving them no choice but to vote". But knowing that a good chunk of Democrat voters often don't vote either out of laziness or out of protest, the more apparent motivation is that this bill is geared towards self-interest.

Representative Sam Hunt claims there will be no consequence for violating this law by not voting, but then why would you pass a law if there are no consequences for breaking it? What's going to happen if people break this law anyway? Fine them like in most countries where not voting at all is a crime? What's going to happen if someone gets fined and decided not to pay the fines? We already have people disobeying speed limits, but there are tangible consequences for that that range from fines to possibly imprisonment depending on how serious the infraction was (as well as the demeanor of the police involved).

A common argument that mandatory voting will lead to voters being more informed... this is just a dumb, baseless claim that has no merit to it whatsoever. Plenty of people who reliably vote already are dumb as a brick. I have been in electoral politics in the past, and holy shit have I run into people that make Patrick Star look like a genius without the brain coral. People who don't do basic research or are easily duped by ideologues, as well as people who blindly vote for candidates of a specific party regardless of what they will do once elected.

Is there anything I'm missing? Tell me in your replies below!

If we were to ever have a female president someday, do you think anyone who criticizes her the same way they would any male president would be labeled a misogynist, and/or an incel and their manhood ridiculed and made fun of or their “pick me” status ridiculed and made fun of if it were a female who criticized the first female president regardless of party affiliation?

It is very likely that Biden will not survive another 4 years as president of the United States of America. So if you really think about it, the democrat nominee is technically whoever his vp is and right now it is still Kamala Harris. If you honestly believe Trump is also somehow unable to survive another 4 years as president, than the same can be said of his vp (whoever he ends up picking) technically being the Republican nominee. There’s also the possibility that both could survive another 4 years, but for this hypothetical question, let’s assume Biden is in the hospital and will not make it out and unable to continue his run for a second term while Trump is still for the most part healthy enough to continue. Who would you vote for?

I strongly believe Caucasian (white), straight, Christian (and now also Jewish) males are hurt the most. Really think of the sociopolitical movements that have swept the US in the recent decade or so.

LGBTQRSTUVblah... encompasses sexual and gender orientations other than being straight

Liberal feminism... address issues pertaining to women with emphasis on woman

Gaza Riots... emphasis and support for Islam and its regimes with antisemitism

Race initiatives to promote those of "color":... races and ethnicities other than white.

Christians largely support Isreal. The Christian faith prohibits LGBTQRSTUVblah causes. Christians have been subject to threats of violence, government surveillance, and the cancel culture.

The two-teared justice system penalizes conservative activists more harshly than leftist rioters.

They are about to remove "Boy" from Boy Scouts. Woke ideologies are now ruining an institution over 100 years old.

I am a white, straight, Christian male. The only "protected class" I may belong in is disability. Although, I don't see any hot-topic movements to address mental health and disabilities. In fact, I face more hardship, no matter what political ideology the companies I work for have.
