I'm Voting Republican - General

[QUOTE=LarparNar;25265973][/QUOTE] Look I can edit things. It makes me edgy and cool. I TOLD you everything I said was [b] supposed [/b] to be taken to the extreme. So all this about Canada's free healthcare being total shit and taking forever to get anything done or treated is infact a total lie? Socialism okay? [editline]08:52PM[/editline] [QUOTE=imasillypiggys;25280208]im voting republican because the poor should just eat each other so that way i dont need to pay taxes [/QUOTE] People who DO work for their money should not need to pay for those who sit around a reproduce.

[QUOTE=DSG;25262344]Let's perform an experiment in which this video is presented to real republicans.[/QUOTE] I'm Republican, and I'm also a humorist who knows that two keys to comedy are exaggeration and finding a grain of truth within the jokes. Many of the jokes (I know they're making a statement, but they elicit a laugh, so I'll call them jokes) are based on Republican ideas, but heightened to such extremes that they become funny. For example, a normal statement such as, "I think America should have a reasonable self defense," becomes, "I think America is the greatest country on Earth and I think we should start as many wars to keep it that way." However, if you subdued the satirical nature of the video to a subtextual level, you could pass it off as real, since nobody would say, "I may be right-wing, but I'm not THAT right-wing." In short, the Republicans presented in this video are about as accurate as the Democrats in this video. Again, the statements presented in the "Why I Am Voting Democrat" video are so exaggerated that they become funny. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPG25Wf0aa4[/media]

[QUOTE=amcwatters;25264035]Facepunch is a pile of left-wing liberal teenage angsty dung.[/QUOTE] and your a right wing dumbass whos slower than fema, your point?

[QUOTE=Dan The Man;25280735]Left-wing is generally an idealistic view. If everybody was left-wing, the world would invariably be a better and more supportive place. Right-wing is a realistic/selfish view. It's impossible for everybody to be right-wing as it exists solely to demonise those who are less esteemed and commonly relies on scape goats to push political agenda. Right-wing is common among those who: a) know nothing of politics b) make a lot of money out of private companies c) are obscenely rich d) are racist/bigoted/religious None of my friends are right-wing. I have never got along with a right-wing person. I find their views are often silly.[/QUOTE] tl;dr If everyone has the same opinion the world would be alot better.

[QUOTE=FPChris;25289092] If everyone has the same opinion the world would be alot better.[/QUOTE] which really goes without saying. it doesn't matter if it's liberal, conservative, whatever.

[QUOTE=FPChris;25289092]tl;dr If everyone has the same opinion the world would be alot better.[/QUOTE] Right-wing cannot exist if everybody is right-wing. The fundamental principle of right-wing idealogy is selfishness. If everybody was selfish the world would be a much more contested place.

[QUOTE=FPChris;25289092]tl;dr If everyone has the same opinion the world would be alot better.[/QUOTE] thats horrible and that would mean nothing would ever change

[QUOTE=imasillypiggys;25292762]thats horrible and that would mean nothing would ever change[/QUOTE] if literally everybody had the same opinion then there would be no need for change

[QUOTE=Doriol;25293249]if literally everybody had the same opinion then there would be no need for change[/QUOTE] well it depends on what every ones opinion was

I lean towards democrat but that genetically modified shot in the video is bull. Most people eat Genetically modified things more than they realize and then proceed to go crazy after hearing about it thinking that the modified product is going to spew out some super virus. They should be more worried about the chemicals and pesticides used to preserve there veggies

It sounds like republicans are allowing arranged marriages. What?

[QUOTE=hhcheese;25265556]It's the ridiculous exaggeration and it total bullshit. See, I can do the same I'm voting as a Democrat because... I'm a communist. I want the government to do everything. It's cool. Obama - he's black. I love socialism. I mean, look how well socialist Healthcare has worked for Canada! I think I'm the smartest coolest guy ever. I'll talk down to you. I love to think all Republicans are retarded asshole hick fucks. Not hard. Stupid Video.[/QUOTE] oh wow
