Racist people. DEI would just give them more justification you just got said education because of your race. Not saying you did, just that they wouldn't care how truly qualified you are.

I think everyone else has well debunked your points and arguments, but I'll just throw in one more thing: DEI policies can also negatively affect minorities who are actually qualified and deserve these positions because it can lead to them being falsely accused of being unqualified because of their race/gender/sexuality/etc. The only people who benefit from DEI policies are politicians and activists.

Cool iceberg. If I could suggest anything (assuming I just completely missed these), could you add BlitzStep and "Starbright"? Former is a lost GD level, latter is a song used used in a level at some point who we don't know who made.

Reminds me of the time I dreamed I saw this one lostwave song that started with some typical rock instrumental before the instrumental muted, but then the lyrics started. They were something like, "I hate all these damn people, I was born in Silverspoon, Germany." (I think the last part is a subtle nod to the now solved "Will The Real Slim Shady Please Shut Up").

The guy in the background and the skeleton from the Fofo clip.

It's pretty crazy how a newspaper dissed a school in one of their articles led to the students and teachers in that school making a whole documentary which included at least two uncredited soundtracks which a bunch of internet nerds have been obsessing over for a few years at this point. Hopefully we can get this solved this year (and maybe that other one mentioned in the Strange Australian vid).

At this point I think we might just have to agree to disagree. For me, it's hard for me to believe most of the left's accusations against Trump because a lot of the time it's been debunked. How many times has Trump been falsely accused of being a Nazi, fascist, dictator, white supremacist, etc.? Enough times for me to believe it's likely an exaggeration of an out-of-context quote. I don't think Trump is a perfect president, far from it, but so many lies have been told about him and so many politicians on the left have accused him of things they do themselves that I can't believe any of it.

Hopefully you understand, but don't expect me to respond to anything further. Not out of disrespect, I'm just a bit burnt out.

Sorry it's taken me a while to respond, I've been busy.

My first point was that the current GOP in congress and the current Admin's values align more closely with Russian Values and those values are White Christian Nationalism, which include attacks on LGBTQ, POC(DEI) and Women's rights.

Glad you clarified a bit. Still a bit vague, but that rolls into completely different territory of discussion that I think for now we agree to disagree.

He made Kash Patel the head of the FBI because he is a Sycophant first and foremost.

Not going to bother, since, in retrospect, a better example of Trump not being a white nationalist would be at the state of the union when he honored a black cancer survivor. Not to forget this clip everyone on reddit has been forgetting about:

Although I'm sure there's some truth to some of the things the article states, it doesn't give actual, cold, hard proof that Trump is actually aligned with Putin in any way aside of an admittedly irrational dislike of Zelensky. Plus, the beginning of the article is clearly trying to get an emotional reaction out of the reader.

Lastly, some advice: if you or anyone reading this reply plans to do another CMV, please do it one point per post, this one throws a lot at the reader which each have varying importance and effectiveness.

Alright, starting from the top.

The GOP “values” align with Russian “values” more than democratic values.

You have conveniently left out what these values are. By all accounts, GOP is significantly closer to democratic values than that of Russian oligarchs (assuming that's what you mean by "Russian" values) purely due to the fact that they participated in the US election and won not only the electoral college but also the popular vote. Russia's oligarchy clearly doesn't support this.

Promotion of White Christian nationalism

Come on, explain what you mean by this and give examples.

attacks on lgbtq

This is a whole different debate alltogether. Besides, even if you disagree with transgender women not being allowed to compete in women's sports, how's that oligarchical? Same with the white Christian nationalism argument.

and POC(D.E.I.), etc.

Easy debunk. DEI policies are harmful to basically everyone. People who are white or Asian are discriminated against due to factors out of their control. Unqualified POC will have to work that's far above what they are capable of and thus causes unnecessary stress, and POC who actually are qualified might experience actual racism because they will be assumed to be unqualified. Not only that if Trump really hated people of color, why did he make one head of the FBI?

Removing all government oversight and consumer protections from the oligarchic Billionaires financing the politicians.

Here's a nice tidbit of info: regulations do not stop monopolies. In fact, they actually help start monopolies because big corporations will be able to comply, but anyone trying to get into the same industry will be unable to due to the unnecessary amounts of red tape.

The trade war with democratic countries that were once our allies along with threatening their sovereignty.

Okay, I'll admit, the tariffs are not a good policy. Still, how's this oligarchical?

An unabashed support for Putin, the authoritarian war criminal who invaded multiple countries. While parroting the same propaganda as Russian state media.

I'll also admit the right in general has been a bit too antagonistic against Ukraine. Still though, a dislike for Ukraine does not equal fanboying over Russia. It would also be nice if you can give some examples of the "Russian state media" propaganda Trump is supposedly parroting.

The attacks on the courts, judges, lawyers and the rule of law that our democratic nation was founded upon.

Even if you think the judges making all of these rulings are in the right (personally, I don't, but I suppose we can agree to disagree), how is any of this oligarchical?

The fact that the GOP congress is supporting him while all of this occurs is the final proof I needed.

Defend this last point factoring in my input.

In conclusion the only way you can continue to support this admin is if you are willing to give up your democratic values and individual liberties for an authoritarian oligarchy style of dictatorship.

In conclusion, you have not argued your position very well.

One thing I think you're forgetting is that heaven and hell exist in the bible. Assuming believing in Christianity is true, then those who do stuff on the level of genocide are not Christian and thus will burn in hell for eternity as punishment. Millions of good Christians have suffered at the hands of all sorts of regimes, but under Christian beliefs they will experience eternal bliss.

I admit this doesn't really cover all of your points, but I'll end with this: while lots of injustice exists in the world, there will be plenty who will try their hardest to fight it and bring good to the world.

I can think of three: Let's Get Up, La La La, Touch My Heart, and Twilight Memories and Give Me Your Wings probably are in this camp too.

Good question. I'm not super old, only 17, but I've been reading since the series inception and have all the books in the main series (and CKCC). I've read all the books multiple times and analyzed effectively every little detail. My opinion? Weeeellll I can't really say much because I'm making my own ranking of them but what I can say is this: some have held up wonderfully and others, not so much.

Serious answer: Leslie Nielson. Joke answer: the alive one.

I'm here hoping for drugs is bad.

*Violin Solo*

They are all disney characters, they are all guys, they all have eyeballs, idk what else is there to say.

Nice work, whoever solved this.

Anything?

I hope this is it. I haven't heard anything about it in a while.

Awaken by Creo.

That's a weird name for a movie.
