I screenshot Google's definition of fascism a few months ago to mock a liberal on FB who kept using the term. There was no mention of "right-wing" anything.
Now. There it is.
That is quite fucked up.

The one link was to a dubbed version. I can't stand that, so I went to the actual French website and watched it in French. Well look at you understanding French  |

Have the 'polls' moved at all in France? slightly towards Le Pen, now instead of needing 87% of the undecided vote, she'd need like 80%. Though her biggest benefit is that it is starting to look like a low voter turnout which works in her favor. |

Elizabeth Warren has a very solid voter bloc, but a rather limited one at that while only having expertise in one area. She's destined for Sec of Education for the next Democratic President or possibly a moderate Republican. She'd be slaughtered in the primaries. Seth Moulton very likely could wind up a VP candidate, but again he'd be slaughtered in the primaries. He doesn't have much personal fundraising power, and really he has only won against a scandal ridden Dem and a gay Republican, so he never has shown the ability to win an even footed election. DNC still wants Howard Schultz to step in, and his stepping down from his CEO spot may be a precursor to him throwing his hat in the ring this time. Now Tulsi Gabbard can and would win. She actually quit politics at one point to stay on deployment in Iraq. She is a moderate Democrat, Women, Military, Smart, and brilliant foreign policy stances. Get these on record. You're the Cal Ripken of getting shit wrong and your streak shows no signs of slowing down. Jackel the "iron man" of inaccurate political predictions. I'm not saying any of them are gonna run, just what would probably happen if they did. You really believe Warren stands a chance in the Primaries, much less a general election? Moulton, a nobody with spotty political history? Schultz is the Dems version of Trump, and Gabbard is like a golden child. |

Well look at you understanding French That's what happens when you grow up bilingual  I learned to read in French before English. Like most bilinguals, I didn't speak until a bit later than most children, but I was speaking in complete sentences when I finally started. |

Good for you. I'm still learning how to speak English LOL
So what did you think of the debate. Who won in your opinion? I watched very little of it, the dubbing did suck. They could've atleast used a woman for Le Pen voice over. The comment section on youtube had a lot of Le Pen supporters.

I didn't watch the entire thing, but what I saw definitely made Le Pen look better. From what I watched, Macron just kept spouting platitudes and repeating the same thing. His answers seemed vague. Le Pen seemed more eloquent and prepared. Based solely on the portion I caught, I'd say she won, but I could have missed some significant exchanges.

Why is that? I tend to agree but am setting you up a little bit. Slavery was banned a while back... ;-] Let's say we decide healthcare is a right. Working as a RN or doctor would be no different than being a worker at the magistrate office or teacher. Nobody is forcing you to be a teacher but you cant discriminate on who you teach or deny a gay couple their marriage license because it is against your religion so there are plenty of examples of providing labor (or services) regardless of how you feel. It isn't slavery to make a doctor care for a patient,he can do it or not be a doctor just like you can teach a Muslim or not be a teacher. |

If the machine that is trying to turn this country into a socialist Hell Hole is successful, and I'm still in an industry that is forced to be entirely cash based-
There is no fucking chance I'm honest on my taxes. Literally, no fucking chance. I will rob those motherfuckers blind, of my money. If Trump is a sign of things to come, I'll pay happily.
But if the Left comes roaring back and swing that pendulum so far to the left that we can never make it back....Fuck their funding that comes from me. They aren't getting a dime.

I'm starting to get a sneaking suspicion of who the next serious democratic presidential candidate that you die-hard repubs need to worry about is It's not Michelle Obama. Not because I don't think she can win, but that she won't run. I did enjoy scaring you guys with her though. It's not antiques like Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden etc. It's someone from Massachusetts. And no, I'm not talking about the one you guys are thinking of. The feather headed princess, who always sounds like she's about to break down and cry when she talks about all the mean old social injustices of the world It's a 4 tour, decorated Iraq war vet / graduate of Philips Academy and Harvard University / U.S. State Rep at the mere age of 38. And he even has a cool sounding name....Seth Moulton This guy is Fox News' worst nightmare. He's young. He's got a nice big square jaw, like Sean Hannity. He's highly educated. He's a poster boy for valor, bravery and service to his country. He has political experience, but he's not some old washington elite, lifer that can pointed to as "the problem." He's well spoken and likable. He has no scandals or controversy to speak of, as of yet. If he runs, he's going to be very hard to play the usual tear down game with that partisan political pundits are so fond of I'm not just trying to mess with you guys, like I was with Michelle. This is the guy. If he decides to run, be afraid. That's all I'm sayin.......fuck, I hate that phrase. But it applies right no Seth Moulton 2020, could be the ticket that grabs Trump's re-election chances right by the pussy   Lol at that guy making it through democratic primaries. Literally, lol. BJim Webb is an older, more credible version than that guy and I think OMalley outperformed him |

Watching the final debate before the French election: Le Pen is making Macron look like a fool. She was sorta hot in her prime.  |

Emergency meeting at Buckingham Palace. Almost the entire royal staff called in it seems. Everyone is speculating either the Queen, Phillip died, or she's abidating the throne.

Various media reports out of France and a few places are saying Prince Phillip died. There will be no confirmation though until about 8am UK time.

His old imperialist/non-pc quotes would live forever. HAHAH yeah shit he said was hilarious. Because of protocol there, it'll be the BBC that announces anything official at like 8am their time I think. Everyone is assuming it is one of them, but with everything on lockdown who the hell knows what it actually is. Given that both him and the Queen were seen in good spirits and healthy early, some are thinking it may actually be Charles now. Well we know for awhile, the Brits are amazing at preventing leaks related to the Royals for extended periods of time, much more something short like this. |

'who the fuck is prince phillip and what the fuck does he do? He doesn't have any power, but the Queen actually still has a fuck ton of power in the UK. While the government has removed most of the monarchy powers over the years, they've still have yet to remove some drastic powers that she has. What's getting weird is French media reporting Phillip is dead, New Zealand media reporting that the press office is saying neither Phillip nor the Queen died. They've pretty much taken her abidating off the table given the timing of the meeting though. |

Well that was anti-climatic. Turns out Phillip is basically stopping public engagement from August on, effectively "retiring"
