Re: The Politics Thread 2025

Has any right wing supporter been able to string two posts together even attempting to defend their position since Trump was inaugurated?

Seems like a few have attempted to fire a single shot and then disappear again as soon as it’s deconstructed as nonsense?

Gutless - you’ve been told what he said and you have no way you can rationally defend your position. So you resort to feigning being above it all and that people worried about ethnic cleansing are overactive in their concern.

Now all we do is wait for the troll clown car of samvucago, PNG, Boomercm et al to roll in and explain to us all why, in fact, ethnic cleansing is fine and everyone who disagree just has TDS.

Careful there Zaius, fact checking is on the fast track to illegal these days. You’re likely to be rounded up for gagging freedom of speech under the heinous guise of preventing the spread of ‘misinformation’.

No, I asked if you agreed with it.

Separately I was saying I would not agree with that phrasing without considering the context in which the public service has increased. Including where it is replacing expenditure on consultants.

“Huge blow out” - I agree they’ll say this, are these your words also?

To be convinced of that I’d be keen to see the spending and outcomes versus what was happening before with consultancies where we had a huge case of how that was being used against us.
