As someone who's a right-leaning Libertarian, Conservatives glorify and worship Ronald Reagan as if he were America's messiah. Reagan has said a lot of things that sound like America first Conservatism, yet Reagan has passed a lot of bills that contradict his claimed political views. Reagan was the very reason why no-fault divorce came into existence, gun control laws have completely taken over 2nd amendment rights in California, and the list goes on.

A lot of the bills Reagan has passed both in California and Federally, goes against conservative traditional values. Funny enough, the very same conservatives who trash on Donald Trump so much for banning bump stocks, worship Ronald Reagan, who has done far more damage to 2nd amendment rights than Trump has ever had.

Historically citizenship and the right to vote was reserved for those who committed to the defense of the state. Is it time to do away with this concept

Yup you are reading that question correctly and no this is not a troll post. a Ron Desentis appointee to new Disney oversight board, Ron Peri in Florida, who is also an Orlando-based former pastor thinks the tap water holds so much estrogen that it will make you gay!

“So why are there homosexuals today? There are any number of reasons, you know, that are given. Some would say the increase in estrogen in our societies. You know, there’s estrogen in the water from birth control pills. They can’t get it out. The level of testosterone in men broadly in America has declined by 50 points in the past 10 years. You know, and so, maybe that’s a part of it.” -- Ron Peri

and jic there's people here who think this guy is speaking any kind of sense whatsoever. news flash, he's nuts:

Conclusions
The consistently large MOEs and MOSs strongly suggest that prescribed and total estrogens that may potentially be present in drinking water in the United States are not causing adverse effects in U. S. residents, including sensitive subpopulations.

Ron DeSantis Poses 'Danger to Democracy,' Kirschner Warns - www.msn.com/.../ar-AA18vB06?ocid=sapphireappshare

Perhaps I am wrong, but why does it seem that Women are so much more obnoxious than men? Don't get me wrong, I definitely believe in equal rights regardless of gender, but there's something I just can't explain about women. I work a lot with people, and for some reason, Women tend to act way more dramatically, or act more obnoxiously than men do... And for some reason these Women tend to be middle aged. You dont need to do too much research to conclude this either, just enter in your search engine "Man refuses to" and "woman refuses to" and you'll see what I mean.

(For me the first 3 results for men are refusing to sell old house, host his cousins wedding, and give up plane ticket, but for women it is refuses to pay rent, refuses to serve black man, and woman refuses to vacciinate kids)

Pope Francis: 'Gender ideology' is one of 'most dangerous ideological colonizations' - www.msn.com/.../ar-AA18v5iY?ocid=sapphireappshare

"Why is it dangerous?" he continued. "Because it blurs differences and the value of men and women."

Serious thought. From my hyppie brain.

But billionaires can’t possibly use it all. The top 3 American billionaires have more than the bottom 50% of all Americans.

Not saying corporations…I think innovation should be limitless, like Apple. As long as they pay correct taxes (they don’t).

And of course the “how” is problematic. But just a thought…

Thats correct, despite all the contentiousness and far right anger Fifty-six percent of those surveyed say the term 'woke' actually means "to be informed, educated on, and aware of social injustices." That includes not only three-fourths of Democrats but also more than a third of Republicans. so yeah when you hear the word 'woke' tossed around... maybe they are complimenting you or something? ;)

To you far right types... well maybe its time you found a new term to chastise people you don't like anymore since this one has proven ineffective for your ends. im sure you'll find it. Get creative!

‘The View’: Jane Fonda Under Fire After Suggesting “Murder” Could Be A Way To Combat New Abortion Laws - www.msn.com/.../ar-AA18ttM7?ocid=sapphireappshare

I am American and I identify more with race more then nationality or ethnicity.
The reason is because as I see it America is too culturally diverse and lacks any real core identity or social cohesion, my ethnicity is a mix of European ethnicities so I can’t really identify with a single ethnicity.
Now I identify with white peoples over the world more then non whites in America.

I have always loved my country. I would stand for the flag and take it very seriously. Nowadays, I don’t see any respect for the country whatsoever. Kids are not standing for the flag and are degrading the country. What are the reasons why?

“the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them.”
