Right. Keep "owning the libs," Assi.

Why don't you tackle what I just said instead of mocking me?
I get when people are younger and idealistic but at a certain point you start asking yourself "what is better for me and the people around me?" And this is where there is such a great disconnect between the majority of the left and the rest of the country.
When I talk about Brazilian politics in here the first thing I get as a pushback is some racist innuendo "Oh you don't care about the people that will be hurt by this" What fucking people? Most people get hurt in this country, and the criminals in the favelas are in an all out war and that war spills into society where normal people go to work and come home to their families. My taxes need to continue to support these fucks?
When should I stop to care about criminals? Or the wives of criminals? Or even the children of criminals? At one point or another the hammer needs to come down for the betterment of the country.
In the states I can only imagine what it is like for marginalized groups that aren't part of the protected minorities - turning the tv on everyday to be mocked and then to have race baiting bullshit shoved down their throats. What do they do?? They turn to Fox News and then you blame them for it and the cycle continues lol
Because people like myself want more centrist levelheaded leadership and dialogue but we can't have that because we are ripping at the poles.

Practice what you preach.
I am a centrist. You think the bore is in the middle? Maybe compared to REEE but you guys are definitely far left, majority of you
