The Left is Now the Right: We laughed at the Republican busybody who couldn't joke, declared war on dirty paintings, and peered through your bedroom window. Now that person has switched sides, and nobody's laughing

The left is way worse than the hard conservatives and evangelical christians of the 70s and 80s. They just wanted to ban shit like promo, D&D and heavy metal bands. They wouldn’t show up at some random guys job to get him fired because said random guy admitted that he liked to play d&d while listening to Kiss.

    I beg to differ. Many right-wing governments actually encourage severe defunding of governmental programs, police, fire, etc. Their belief in Latin America is that the people should fend for themselves.

    If the Mexican government was actually run properly, they would have put one guy in charge of the drug distribution trade. Their attitude however is of total apathy, which is why things are just insane there.

    The left in the US is insane however and wants to defund police because they believe this will somehow improve the quality of life for the poor in their cities. They're about to learn the hard way what a huge mistake this is. I work in the hood, they don't know what these people are like. They are the problem! Liberals, also know them too well, most are mentally ill. What I hope would happen is if they get their way, the Sheriffs, State Police and Feds would take over until hopefully the people vote these idiots out, or worst case scenario, take it over. I don't want to see something like this happen in America but maybe it just needs to happen. It pretty much did in Detroit. The Feds found charges on Kwame, forced him to resign and suddenly, Detroit wasn't putting ghetto candidates up for election anymore. First it was Dave Bing, then it was Mike Duggan, a white guy who has no business being elected mayor, but he's honestly done a great job. They might have to do the same thing in these nutty lib cities until they prove they can be taken off the "super-secret conservatorship." I don't know.

      I think a lot of the reason they support extremist socialism is because the leaders basically give them nothing and education is so terrible. I work in schools and whereas AAs are absolutely horrible human beings and do not value education, Hispanic kids and their parents are generally a lot better. Even if they're into the gangster life, they listen to you and can be controlled. Even the worst ones, you can see hope for them. A lot of the second and third-gen ones are a lot better. They're basically indistinguishable from white kids.

      AAs...how can they improve in life when you have some effing NY liberal calling people a racist for trying to address problems with their culture? Seriously, I've scolded so many of these smug elitists, just schooled them. I'm like, you've never been in their areas, never been in their schools, giving them more money isn't the problem, their attitude and culture are the problem. They respond "You're a racist!" and I just light into them. I don't even care anymore, I'm so sick of enablers.
