Polls: Society & Politics

Half of true crime shows seem to be victims out drunk at 1am. I get being out and with friends. Even into the wee hours. But dead drunk? No…

There’s even a conspiracy theory called Happy Face Killers that link drunk college guys drowning. But they’re drunk…and they drowned. Case closed

Any actual evidence? I mean they have hostages so they’re shitheads. But baby beheadings sounds a bit propagandish.

Ian Cranston sentenced to 10 years in prison in Sept. 2021 fatal Bend shooting of Barry Washington, Jr.

On the night of Sept. 19, 2021, Black guy complimented his white girlfriend and continued to harass them. When the white girlfriend rejected his advances and said enough, he attacked them. White guy panicked and defended his girlfriend and himself by dislodging his fire arm and killing him.

Media picked up the story as "white man killing black man for being nice to white woman" and public opinion then ran with it and saw the white guy as just some racist supremist who killed a black guy for no reason. aka "He a good boy. He didn't do NOTH'IN"

So i need a sanity check. i've been living my entire life untill now assuming you shouldn't flush these cardboard cores down the toiled cause it has a high risk on flushing them. i live in EU

i just caught my flatmate flushing one of these down. upon being confronted, he said "ah shit i didn't know, in america we always do this".

is he right? do americans do this or is he lying again (wouldn't be the first time).

According to polls, most people think so. A recent CNBC survey shows his disapproval rating at 58%. https://nypost.com/2023/10/18/bidens-disapproval-rating-hits-record-high-58-poll/

And that he would lose to Trump if the election was held today, despite all Trump's legal and ethical problems. https://www.cnbc.com/2023/10/18/biden-would-lose-in-match-up-vs-trump-according-to-cnbc-survey-israel-funding-has-strong-support.html

I more and more people are recognizing the fact that if we had a strong POTUS, Russia would never have invaded Ukraine and we wouldn't be on the verge of WW3 as we are today. The world is testing the US and they obviously see weakness.

Thoughts?

As an American, I'm honestly sick and fucking tired of both political sides wasting my tax dollars on stupid shit that I've never voted for in the first place (the left squandering tax dollars on Ukraine, while the right squanders tax dollars on Israel).

I'm no fan of Hamas or Palestine by any means but wtf has Israel ever done for the American taxpayers who have been funding them for a while now? Arms dealing doesn't count because that only ever benefitted American career politicians and the military-industrial complex, not the American taxpayers themselves.

It´s a though experiment and I just want to see how people on here think about that. I lately thought of it while arguing with a colleague about tolerance is supposed to look like. If you want to give a comment please be polite.
