Polls: Society & Politics

Just to clarify this for the education you received in grade, middle and high school. Not college education.

In general universities are notoriously biased in their education programs (and only getting worse). However college is also an optional education program and most college students are legally adults. Technically they should be able to make your choices whether accept ideologies as valid or not at that point in their life.

Still though I will argue that most 19 year olds are more impressionable than 35 year olds. Most people don’t start college after 30

Anyway I have been doing more research about the ww2 along the societal impact of Capitalism vs. Communism over the last two centuries. I am finding myself getting more and more pissed off at the education I received as a minor. I was never taught about the atrocities of ww2 imperial Japan, the Stalin era Soviet Union, the transatlantic slave trade or even dissenting opinions of how FDRs “new deal” prolonged the Great Depression.

I did (rightfully) learn all about the horrors of Nazi Germany, slavery in the America, the atomic bombings of Nagasaki/Hiroshima. I have no qualms about that historical education But there was so much more to the story that was at best ignorantly left out. However it seems like it was purposely left out to serve an agenda.

For example George Washington himself felt very conflicted about slavery despite it being a common and popular practice at the time. I remember he was immediately introduced as a “slave owner” in a biography my class read about him in the 8th grade. While that is a true fact it was also obvious in retrospect the textbook author was trying to poison the well.

Anyway I’m no spring chicken. But I got to imagine this crap must be even 10x worse nowadays.

I mean if obese adults have children, will the kids even have a chance in life? And unfortunately now we all get to share in their healthcare cost.

I would like to know if you think Biden is a weak president or Strong president. I personally think he's Weak in so many ways. His mental capacity is nothing but a 50.

Michelle Obama only got where she did by sleeping with a man. Sorry not sorry

I was truly shocked and disgusted by how the Dodger team has formatted their big "K" letters. Six Ks, one reverse K only to get three more Ks to lead the line. I commented on them saying hey what the heck you just lost my respect, then I unfollowed them and exposed them for the true racists they are (though I did not directly call them a racist).

I was a longtime Dodger "fan" due to family background and peer pressure. They've literally lost my respect AND my support. I am renouncing this garbage sports team known as the Dodgers. Actually I don't even think there are any good sports teams out there today.

This one dude considers himself "AF" (that stands for America First) and he is part of a "College Republican" club that he wrote in his bio. He saw my story but I don't see a reason why he unfollowed me?

Let's see how good the people of GAG are. Here's a list of simple questions any morally decent person can do. How many of them do you pass?

1. Do you try to be a good person daily and help others in any small way you can?

2. Do you usually treat others, especially strangers, with respect (until they give you a reason not to)?

3. Do you try to understand other people's point of view at times, especially when you disagree with them? (Empathy)

4. Are you the type to stand up for essential freedom and speak out against evil, tyranny, and oppression of others, regardless which side of politics it comes from?

5. Do you positively contribute to society in any meaningful way? (Teacher, doctor, lawyer, nurse, assistant, donor to charity, etc.)

6. Are you a person with a clean lifestyle? (No smoking, vaping, drug abuse including marijuana, alcohol, gambling, etc.)

7. Are you a sexually clean person? (No promiscuity, no sleeping around, no STD's, no degeneracy like an al sex, rim jobs, etc)

8. Are you a decent partner or potential partner to others? (No hitting, no abuse, no insulting)

9. Are you monogamous and loyal to your partner or would-be partner? (No cheating, no disrespect)

10. Are you against the death or killing of others? (Whether that be by "Constitutionally-protected" firearms or pre-childbirth; I'm not getting into the political argument crap)

Note: Being religious or heterosexual/non-queer is not required to be a good person, but it may sometimes help, depending on the circumstance.

Let's just arbitrarily say, you need 7 or 8 of these to pass as a good, decent human being.
So... ARE YOU A GOOD PERSON OR NOT? (I'm option B, for what it's worth.)

And yes, I left anonymous opinions on, even though I know that's how all the trolls and jerks on GAG only ever respond. I guess I'm opening it for the good people, even if some cockroaches also slip in through the door.
