The government has destroyed people's lives for over eighty years with cannabis criminalization. They've raked in untold trillions off fundraising, scare tactics, donations and lobbying.

Libs are already negotiating against themselves by saying that. They think the government is going to tax the weed and somehow not use the money for the defense budget?

I can't really pinpoint why this one really sticks in my craw.

Its like the old saying goes: "give a liberal a magic lamp, and they'll negotiate down to one wish and use it for something they think Republicans would like"

        They can only pretend to have compassion for other people when it results in theoretical treats.

        Every time they bring up inviting more Ukrainian refugees to the US, it devolves into "Mmmm yes I love Ukrainian food!"

        Liberals - even at their most multicultural and pluralistic - can only imagine immigrants and refugees existing to happily and obediently serve Americans snacks.

              when the Ukrainian war ends, and libs have to do the whole "stabbed in the back" narative, do you think they'll rename Chicken Kiev to Freedom Chicken? Because I don't really see a way for them to get out of the contradiction, but Libs have shocked me before, so what do i know.
