Here's the part where I think you missed my point a bit. Short term you don't really 'compromise'. You say that you compromise to get elected, then you implement what you want anyways.
You tell the people what they want to hear, and then you do what you need to do.
Imagine looking like that, and thinking a famous actor thinks you're attractive. And even though you've never met them, you're in a relationship with them.
Then taking your story to the news, and allowing them to publish your picture...
Her kids are going to get relentlessly bullied for life now. Anyone who googles their mom, this is going to pop up.
All because she's hoping someone will start a gofundme for her or some shit.
The complete lack of sense, shame, or anything remotely redeeming is honestly astounding.
Heard the guy learned how to troll in the early hours of the morning from his mom.
Hear! Hear!*
Holy fuck you're dumb. You think people are pointing out a place when they're shouting agreement to what they're hearing?
Would you rather capitulate on your moral compass and win, or never compromise and lose utterly?
You can't fight fair against and adversary that refuses to do so.
Devil's advocate, came here from another commonwealth country, and the people who left when her parents did (and came to Canada or the UK) did so because they actually thought british rule was a good thing.
However, I'm super wary of any politician who doesn't have a family or children.
Why would they really care all that much for the future?
I'm going to take heat for this from this group, but what ever. In the current political climate, I will not be able to vote for a leader who shares all of my values. That's just reality. They will not win.
I would rather get 40% of what I want than 0% of what I want. I don't think that makes me a sell out. I don't think it's a mistake either. There are certain people who will not be able to become Prime Minister. My vote isn't the only one that matters.
We need to be Machiavellian. We need to do what the left has done. Infiltrate corporations, infiltrate academia, give money to causes we support, and if those causes don't exist, create them ourselves.
While I fucking hate Gandhi, "be the change you want to see".
I'm not risking my livelihood by screeching on twitter. I'm high up enough at a massive corporation that I get to decide who to hire. I give money to causes I support, and I continue to try to drive my net worth, and influence how I can.
I agree with a lot of Sloan says. However, Sloan is too straightforward for a politician. You think Trudeau says what he thinks or means? The king of black face really care about racism? The emperor of ethics breaches really care about 'open and transparent' government? The man who sexually harassed a reporter really a feminist?
He is literally more racist, more corrupt, and less feminist than I would ever be. Yet all those groups would call this conservative any name in the book while giving him a pass. Because the man lies. That's what politicians have.
I respect honest people. Politics isn't the place for telling people how it is. Hasn't been since ancient antiquity, isn't now, and never will be.
The masses will always prefer a sweet lie over a hard truth. This is far more complicated than anyone would like to admit, and we need to be far more strategic than any of you would like. To win, we will all need to compromise on our beliefs. It sucks, because the reason most of us have been banished here is because we're the type of people who are unwilling to do so. Stuck right between a rock an a hard place.
Nice to see Penguin didn't actually die at the end of batman returns...
Every single woke liberal doesn't realize that the actual elite are on their side because they look a 3rd world labour as a get rich quick scheme, not some noble cause.
They'll be their maids, make their mcdonalds, hand them their timmies, and work the fields. At rates far below market value.
Then they'll turn around and say that they're trying to give these people better lives.
They look at the as second class citizens they can abuse to lower wages in 1st world countries. The outcomes from it are never good. Rise in crime, loss of societal cohesion, etc.
But we're racists for not liking it.
Then there's no one working in large percentages, tax dollars dry up, and you guys end up back in tipis and mud huts.
Honestly, decent outcome.
Just goes to show, no matter the situation, don't talk to police. The police won't do it when in trouble. What does that say?
Libs got thrown out for corruption when Harper got elected. The electorate is too fucking stupid to care, they just want the libs free shit.
That's 10k more than she got paid for the rolling stones running train on her.
You seem really obsessed with men who like men.
Which one's aren't pedos would be a shorter list.
Found the faggot. How little do you have going on in your life that internet arguments are this important to you?
Fuck em. They've all been for this, until now when it's turning against them. It's going to happen to anyone who's prominent and speaks out.
There has never been a time in human history where being Machiavellian is more necessary.
Play the game their way. We know the rules, and we'll be better at it than they are. We really going to get outsmarted and outworked by a bunch of starbucks baristas?
Noticed you got suspended on reddit today. Finally deactivated my account. Not giving another penny, or any advertiser clicks to that fucking cesspool of faggotry.
They won't answer a single question in a straightforward manner, I guarantee it.
