Once a upon a time I was minding my own business having a cone of weed in peace enjoying the sun rise when suddenly i was approached by two men i had never met or seen before, and they took me by force against my will, and then locked me inside a cage.

According to there rules i was not kidnapped. They did release me after a time but that was not the end of the situation.

Hypocrisy. In our world we've seen plenty lately.
  • Mayor of Chicago visiting a hair salon during government ordered lockdowns earlier this summer, claiming she has special needs that are above the law.
  • House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visiting a hair salon during government ordered lockdowns, claiming she was setup by the salon owner. Apparently she didn't know better.
  • Joe Biden claiming president Trump failed by not ordering a national mask mandate back in March while he has not put himself on a mandate during the same time period. Apparently it only matters if it is government ordered and not necessarily if one believes it is the best thing to do.
  • Groups like BLM claiming to be fighting for racial equality when in reality they are fighting for black supremacy. Case in point. Hawk Newsome, the founder and president of the greater NYC BLM organization is quoted saying, "If this country doesn't give us what we want, then we will burn down this system and replace it. All right? And I could be speaking ... figuratively. I could be speaking literally." and "I just want black liberation and black sovereignty, by any means necessary." (Recorded interview with Martha McCallum of Fox News)
  • People supporting government health care while doing nothing themselves toward helping others in need of health care. Apparently it only applies if government does it but doesn't apply to the individual. Jesus never addressed using government for social needs but rather addressed individuals to do the work.
  • People supporting socialism while they wait for government to act rather than doing what they can themselves to help the less fortunate. Using government to take from the rich and give to the poor is a form of theft and again Jesus never advocated for socialist ideals but rather each individual is commanded to take care of the sick, homeless, etc. This is emphasized in Matthew 25 when He used the word "you."
“When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’" Matthew 25:31-36 NKJV

We sure have seen plenty of hypocrisy, but why is it you can only manage to see the hypocrisy of Democrats? Surely there has been plenty of hypocrisy on both side of the political spectrum. Is the hypocrisy of the Republicans any less a double standard?

I am pro Trump. Do not judge Humble or anyone else who don't agree with me. Don't think everyone here does either.
Judge yourself before you judge someone else.
Double standards. We all have got them.
Let's learn to leave them.

Trump is the 4th member of the Trinity apparently?

Those were just some that are fresh in my mind and any relation to a political platform is purely coincidental. Personally, I don't consider myself to fall in line with either Democrat or Republican. My political views are very near the middle, leaning toward the left in some things and toward the right in others. For example, I could support some form of socialized medicine but I would not support a more socialist agenda and I have my reasons for both views.

When was the last time you criticised Trump or a Trump policy? I haven't read one yet. Those who identify as moderate may not realise , they are anything but.

I wouldn't ,

there are moderates ,I know a few that aren't here posting .
biden will keep fauci,whose policies trump followed .you can't just override state laws on a federal level easily.the scotus will kill that ,the left tries this often ,it eventually gets killed .

not all it but yes a lot . there are overstepping of the right ,lately in,the form of unnacountable bureaucrats that were put in place by the left and the right pits their man in .
case in point the atf vague definition on assault weapons ,so vague a shot gun is one!

you only know what the media says or the internet tells you



i will use my own first hand knowledge what the media doesn't say much about on Medicare and social security

one ,I work ,I make and have made enough a few times ,my,wife's disability is taxed.my parents both on it ,are taxed because they saved and mom pension is that much but she isn't even a millionaire ,they don't make combined over 80 grand a year ,perhaps 60 at the most .I'm not much lower then that ,because of the left's love of taxation ,persons like us who saved,or receive trust money despite said income pay more in income taxes . my dad has earmy signs of dementia and has been disabled before my mom retired .

Biden was in Congress both times they decided to raise taxes on ss,ssi if you make enough .common sense says you better save because out of you ss,ssi check will come your Medicare insurance fee ,something you bought by working each year and had 6.4 percent (employer matches your 3.2 percebt unless you get self employment or dividends )of your taxes paying towards .
 
I think from tommorow Qurenslan is opening its boarder to NZ but NZ not opening its boarder back. Its amazing because i you look at the stats population, cases, an so on, Queensland as a state has done better than NZ as a entire country when it comes to covid. Yet we get praised.
