This sounds very reminiscent of brexiteer arguments.

As brexit has proven, the majority voting for it doesn't mean the outcome isn't worth analysing

The other weird Brexit comparison I’ve noticed this time, is the Trump supporters still seem to be uniformly angry and raging at everything, despite winning. Chill and enjoy the 3 points will ya.

They will soon realise they are just angry and hate everything/one. Having spent years thinking it was the left, the foreigners, the gays, the vegans and the woke they hated, it will dawn on them that they are just angry tits looking for things to hate, they may even turn on each other.

Good ol' internet!
 
Aye sadly Mrs browns boys is the most popular comedy , Ladbaby got loads of no1’s , the RS have millions of fans and Brexit /trump win votes . All of it together doesn’t mean they’re the right choices , just means this is the world we live in .

You just have to do your best not to let it all make your view of humanity drag you down I suppose .
It's quite something to see the side that cheered on an insurrection play the 'you lost, get over it' card
 
Of course it is. Trump's a lunatic.

But you dont get shut of his movement unless you draw the right conclusions and unite under a clear set of principles.

The danger now is that the Democrats rally around and shift rightwards in an effort to pick up more working class votes. That's not where the working class are and it's not why the Democrats lost the election. They lost the election because they didn't maintain working class living standards and they lost their support - and they lost other sections of society too with a rank foreign policy agenda.
100% agree
They need to embrace the left of their party. Interestingly a lot of candidates were elected in 2020 running on some similar policies to Bernie, AOC etc without the socialist tag.
 
You clearly don't know what Asylum is, they are all 'illegal' until they apply

Apply in Germany, France or another country en route...

...if theyre genuinely in fear for their life.

Could you imagine being in genuine fear and wanting to claim asylum in a safe place...but instead forget that and decide to take a life risking ordeal by paying criminals to put you in a packed dinghy.

I cant relate to someone in fear for their life....not taking the asylum option somewhere and instead risking their life.

Nonsensical.
 
Every accusation is a confession eh!? Trump and Goebbel's playbook.
those posters aren't pro genocide

Wtf the only hateful posts in here are from anti-trump posters.

Fair but no one would know the outcome until they vote for it.

Was saying the other day I've never seen such angry winners, I think they expected Democrats to behave as poorly as they did

Que? The only people crying and complaining are democrats.

Otherwise its pretty quiet.

It depends on what you mean by left and right.

The Democrats didn't lose working class votes b/c of economic issues. That might be what those voters are saying, but what they mean is the Democrats lost them on social issues. Cultural issues. Them's the facts.

Democrats can move to the center on those issues while still taking a non-negotiable stance on things like no tolerance for nazis, racism, etc, etc. Democrats shouldn't be dying on the hill for boys at birth playing girls' sports in my opinion - it's such a niche issue it's just noise and makes Democrats look like they don't understand common sense.

We will have to agree to disagree on the economic front. Democrats never win on policy/economic type arguments b/c this stuff is more complicated and less based on emotion. While it's obvious to many that unregulated capitalism run amok will ultimately hurt the working class, their voters don't see it that way.

If you had a family would you not want the best for them? having been forced to flee your home would you settle for the first place you came across or the best for your family?? It ain't rocket science. To add most of these people have a connection to the country to which they are headed, family, friends, language or even colonial ties.

People like you think parents are putting young kids in dinghies in the middle of night in the winter for fun.

What’s your experience working with, or being around asylum seekers?

As @Noisy noise annoys has helped you out with some answers like family & friends let’s see about this bit.

Do you see the flaw in this proposal? Think about it just at a basic geographical level for a second.

You also seem to think all refugees still feel in immediate danger having left their country rather than the reality that they felt in danger while there & don’t want to return to that situation.

Many Brits think we’re exempt from global responsibilities by lieu of our geographical location.
People jump through hoops to be racist.
