wirinet: The conservatives/liberal labels are problematic, as they are relative. A Massachusetts Conservative - Republican governor like Charlie Baker is probably an Alabama Liberal or Dem. As to the Original Abortion Ruling Roe v. Wade. That decision was 7-2. With 5 justices appointed by Republican Presidents joined with 2 Dems ruling for it and one nominated by a Republican and one by a Dem against. So yes, this MAGA version of conservatism is more extreme than those Republicans in 1973. 3 Likes |

SlyFoxxEternal: Nairaland reminds me of the good old days of the internet. You can speak your mind and get the true pulse of the people. Where you can call someone a 'figgernaggot' and they'd just insult your mother in return, rather than get you banned and fired from your job. SlyFoxxEternal: I sincerely believe that the culture war is a distraction for both establishment Dems and Republicans use to score points with their supporters while the middle class continues to suffer. Kind of like how in Nigeria, the ruling class has divided us by tribe and religion so that we can elect the next murderous thief because of the name they give the Jewish deity that they follow. SlyFoxxEternal: You have to understand that these people are used to screaming down their opposition along with a bunch of other like-minded people all while fully backed by the social media platform. Furthermore, some people have replaced their religion with leftist ideology. SlyFoxxEternal: I just don't have it in me to get too upset over comments by faceless people on the internet. Maybe it's because of my time on 4chan (mostly just the anime and comics boards) or whatever but I just don't really care if someone tells me to kill myself on the internet. Like, sometimes I'll find myself typing multiple paragraphs in response to an argument only to delete everything and drop a single joke and go somewhere else to talk about anime. Occasionally though, I do little trolling... |

CoolUsername: So I generally care about issues that affect me. I'm Nigerian and American. So Nigerian, American and the intersection of Nigerian/American issues affect me. And what do you know, this is a US Politics thread on a Nigerian site. Let me ask you, why are you here? 3 Likes 2 Shares |

SlyFoxxEternal: They do. It's just that their ideology is not personal but tribal. The north is a feudal society and feudalism is ultra-conservatism. It is socially, culturally and religiously conservative. Literalism has no place in the north. Aminu Kanu tried to introduced socialist policies to northern nigeria in the second republic, but his party The Peoples Redemption Party failed woefully at the presidential elections. 1 Like |

IjeBos: Why is it always about white people for you? You are obsessed with whitey. You believe that I think the way I do because of white people, while you do everything to toe the line of acceptable black thought because you won't be seen as pandering to whites. I don't care about their race, tribe, religion, gender, sexuality, or politics. As long as there's mutual respect, we can put our differences aside and vibe. All I care about is family and friends. Nigeria's leaders have always looked like us but they don't love us. The different tribes don't love each other. Christians don't love Muslims and vice versa. They use our different identities to pit us against each other. I don't care for it and I won't participate in the bullshxt.

CoolUsername: Both of your comments get back to my point. You don't live in the US and so have little understanding of it's culture. If you did you would understand the reference to both. But your frame of reference is what you get in your conservative ecosystem. So you can sit here and say the most offensive things to African Americans without any cultural sensitivity of the lives they actually live or trash Omar without understanding the hypocrisy of that vote. https://news.yahoo.com/marjorie-taylor-greene-tries-squirm-005914269.html 2 Likes |

IjeBos: "Dindu nuffin" really got you pressed. Funny thing is that I was saying it in reference to a white man. Also, MTG said some frankly insane things about Roger Kimmel, PG&E, and Rothschild Inc. While stupid, how did this become Jewish space lasers? Now, I won't be surprised if she actually said anti-Semitic stuff but this is a reach. 2 Likes |

SlyFoxxEternal:I don't know why you singled out Biden. MAGA Republicans is also a word often used by Republicans that have not embraced trumpism. The ones MAGA love to call Never trumpers and many other names. As per meaning of MAGA Republican/trumpism/ American far right e.t.c, here is a list compiled by the Hill, a conservative leaning media: https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/3696121-six-ways-trump-has-changed-the-gop/

SlyFoxxEternal: “The Real Donald Trump,” plays on two separate occasions a clip of the billionaire candidate saying that he “lived in New York and Manhattan my whole life” and that “my views are a little bit different than if I had lived in Iowa.” Trump has said many times he is Pro choice, He is for single payer healthcare He has never attended a church in most of his adult life. His favorite bible verse is "Two Corinthians" |

SlyFoxxEternal: Going by their personal lives and personal beliefs Biden even Obama is probably more conservative than Trump. Biden Obama Clinton had a church they identified with, Trump probably spends Sundays recovering from Saturday's hangovers. He was basically an enjoyment man. But he wanted to win a ticket under the Republican party and has to say anything to win I remember in the 90s to mid 2000s. Trump was the darling of the liberal media, He often appeared on WWE, Rap lyrics even host a beauty pageant He was a showbiz man. Trump that was interviewed and said "Avoiding HIV in Manhattan in the 70s was the equivalent of his own Vietnam war". Now compare that to a traditional conservative like Mike Pence, Mitt Romney, The Bushs or John McCain He was simply a populist who cashed in n peoples fears and worries about the economy. That was why he was loved by the Union people the reliable Blue collar Democratic voters of the rust belt |

SlyFoxxEternal:That particular post was not an opinion post. I could care less about what Biden calls them as I am not fixated on Biden. I pointed out a Republican calling them MAGA Republican as well. I am sure if I google some more, I will find other Republicans acknowledging the Trump faction of the GOP. The GOP has a Trump faction and those are the ones being referred to as MAGa Republicans. 1 Like |

Texts of Right Wing Conservative Alex Jones revealed. Thousands of Alex Jones' Texts Are Now Public, and Yep, He's the Worst Story by Kylie Cheung • 2h ago As has previously been reported by Rolling Stone, at around the time these texts were sent, Jones oversaw an elaborate “spy ring” to surveil his ex-wife, Kelly Jones, and current wife Erika Wulff Jones. Jones went so far as to keep a GPS tracker on Erika’s car and required hourly updates on her location from Tim Enlow—a former cop and Blackwater spy—whom he’d hired to follow her. Yet despite his suspicions about Erika, at the same time that he was texting Enlow demanding updates about his wife, he was also texting an unnamed married woman with whom he was having an affair, “On my way. Pleas run me a bath,” per SPLC’s report. At another point, he asked his mistress for a “sucky.” https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/thousands-of-alex-jones-texts-are-now-public-and-yep-he-s-the-worst/ar-AA1730xT?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531&cvid=8e3b78f52358427e967758f034cc3aba#comments 1 Like 1 Share |
