Was Kamala's latest interview really so bad, or are the prediction markets overreacting?

>>14578>just no one is actually going to change their mind. Eh, maybe 95% of people have made up their mind. But the election is so close that just a small percentage of people can flip it. Plus, there is the issue of turnout. People might just stay home.

>>14581This is not new, it is and remains a small minority of people that get amplified because it makes people like you become entrenched in your xenophobia/self-hate of Americans.
This type of conspiracy theory is present in every single nation on earth.
Also, what does this have to do with the OP? Is it just the image, not the substance of the question? Tell me you don't understand polls and US demographics without telling me you don't understand.

This is a even kind of election, and anybody who claims otherwise is either deluded or lying.

>>14590I don't think most people across the world and even many in this country understand how much the average American maybe hates individuals based on their race, their religion, their gender identity, their sexual orientation, their ethnicity, and so on.
Political campaigns based on hatred, especially on using the iron hammer of government power to hurt transgender people or disabled people or some other minority widely viewed as inferior, have power now in the U.S. for the same reason that they've had power in other countries such as in Germany and Italy in the 1930s. By popular acclaim. Some individuals just really, passionately hate their neighbors. And there's nothing that you can do about that.
Some people would rather live with more unemployment, more crime, more poverty, more inflation, and the like if it means not having to live with Jews, or with gay people, or whomever else offends their conservative sensibilities.

Whatever happens in November, I keep wondering whether or not those that think of themselves as a kind of "master race" or whatever else should just get to have their own nation inside of what's now America, with the multiracial, multiethnic, multireligious, etc majority escaping from them.

>>14604>the Trumpists take people like me and put numbers on our arms.Despite the Second Amendment, our arms are already required to have serial numbers engraved in them. When I made a Form 1 sound suppressor, I had to get it engraved with my name, city & state, and a serial number.
No.14606
>>14605Why don't other amendments matter besides the Second Amendment?
Why doesn't an abusive Big Brother government otherwise taking or misusing people's private property matter when it applies to anything other than guns?
Why doesn't it matter when the state decides to censor, ban, or otherwise restrict everything from certain foods to certain video games to certain books to certain contraceptives to certain musical pieces and the like?
Why is it tyranny if men in jackboots take my firearms for no valid reason but normal government practice if men in jackboots use civil asset forfeiture or any other such measures to take my car, my laptop, my apartment, and so on?
Why is the government being inside of my personal life in every single way possible in terms of nanny state regulation only a problem with firearms and not with any other aspect of my life whatsoever?
Why do none of the ethical principles of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States matter other than gun rights, and why does the moral value that "the government is best when it governs least" hold no worth on any political issues besides gun rights?
I will never, ever understand you conservatives and you libertarians.
No.14607
>>14605>>14606I'm racking my brain to understand why people such as yourself find no fault with an omnipotent government imposing draconian restrictions on every single other form of property (including, to an extent, making actual demands on people's own bodies) that's
not a gun.
I don't get it. I just don't. I really don't.
If a criminal psychopath surprises you and steals a firearm that you're carrying, then that is an evil act. It is an equally evil act if he sexually assaults you. It is similarly evil if he steals your wallet or some other possession of yours. It is likewise evil if he ends your life and kills you.
What applies to a street criminal also applies to a tyrannical government. Unjust harm is immoral. This is a simple moral value to have.
"Fuck Your Freedoms", the motto of Donald Trump's supporters, is something that I don't just disdain but find horrific.
