I used to be a card carrying Libertarian Party member. Years and years ago. When most didnt know of them. But this isnt 1776 anymore. And I....anyways. Yep. I kinda still do like Johnson. I remember his High Times interview years ago. He ahright. At least vote third party I say. Iam with Sanders myself. But at anyrate...prostitution is a no brainer. Should be legal and regulated. All drugs as well. Obvious. But dems and repubs i dont think want a revolution at all. They want the status quo. The money train to keep chugging along. I say if you want real change...support the Progressives.

Until they're dragged kicking and screaming off the corporate and donor SuperPAC money tit, both the Republican and the Democratic Party establishment
WILL.NOT.GIVE.ONE.SINGLE.FUCK
about the middle class or anyone else. It's so obvious that it goes undiscussed and unreported.

Speaking of reporting, it's also shockingly obvious to anyone who pays attention to the news that the half dozen major media outlets lie by omission on a constant basis. They don't change the truth, they just don't report it. This I have seen with my own eyes.

I'm wondering if you could please explain how not talking about racism will fix some of the problems we have in this country regarding racism.

Yet another strawman..

Nobody said "don't talk about racism". Literally what we've said is "Yes, racism is a very important issue, and not just the blatant, overt racism in society, but the systemic, economic, legal aspects of racism, too.". That it's important to address each of these in order to limit it. I think what people like you do actually exacerbates racism. One key element of racism is poverty. Raising wages, providing free child care, etc. are economic solutions that would actually help fix the problem. Setting up civilian review boards like there are in other countries to bring charges and convictions on police officers who commit crimes is a way to help solve the systemic racism minorities face.

We said "Just talking about it, like you want to do, isn't enough.". Talk is cheap. Action's expensive.


You should try facing our actual arguments head on instead of relying on strawmen

I actually voted for Johnson and I'm pretty much libertarian but the left wing looks worse than the right wing IMHO.

I just want our whorehouses, opium dens and cannabis coffee shops back honestly but the Democrats and Republicans want a revolution.

Meanwhile in the news... crickets

What argument are you talking about?

You and tty keep running away from people who literally quote your own words.

Pad or @ttystikk , What does this even mean?

"I think that if everyone quit talking about race, part of the problem would be solved."
