That's a bit of twisting around definitions to give a low blow to his opponents.

A classic: "Everything I don't like is Fascism".

IMO: Every quote Reagan ever said was read from his note cards.

The guy was a dunce.

Reagan was literally a movie actor. Trump is also literally an actor.

The entire point of the president is to be a good PR guy for the military-industrial-banking complex and to take all the blame so we can throw him in the trash and start again on a new guy in 4 or 8 years. And the military-industrial-banking complex never sees any bad PR or penalties because it's blamed on one individual, who became president based on how good they looked on TV. As it ever was.

I wonder how many presidents have IMDB pages...

It's impressive that Reagan was able to do even that with early stages of Alzheimers affecting him.

People with dementia are amazing actors. They can forget who their children are, yet cope by pretending to know them.

I've seen it, and it's always tragic.

He summarized the definition of the word right there for you. Did you expect a history lesson in a single paragraph? Also, it's fucking disgusting that you are defending Fascism.

He summarized it as much as you can summarize Hitler in 'A man with a mustache' and goes on saying that 'This is what Freddy Mercury is, isn't he?' .

Also, you might check up on your reading comprehension ability if you think I defended Fascism with my post. I'm saying Reagan did the 'Everyone I Don't Like is LITERALLY HITLER'.

It seems to me that you lack intellectual capacity.

He's making good points, attacking his character without responding to the points being made isn't very high on the pyramid of debate. You can do better

[–]sawboss[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

I can, but why?

[–]magnora7 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

Because otherwise you will eventually be banned for dragging down discussion on the pyramid of debate, obviously

What the fuck is wrong with you? Wait, don't fucking answer because I don't even care. Considering the way you've described your interpretations of me at various times I don't know why I would expect a normal human being to exist behind your screen name.

"Now, watch this drive" - George W. Bush Jr. (after invading a foreign nation over false pretenses that ended up killing almost a million people)

The military-industrial complex owns both parties and has for many decades now. The difference between the two is basically window-dressing at this point.

The difference between the two is basically window-dressing at this point.

That's going to change.

Why would it? The control system is working wonderfully for those in control

I'm going to remember that this is the behavior you model for users of this site. Every thread I'll jump in with my own opinion however unwarranted and unsavory. Is that what you want?

[–]magnora7 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

You're welcome to all the opinions you want, as long as you express them in a way that doesn't blatantly violate the pyramid of debate. That's the rules. They apply to everyone.

"I told the American people I did not trade arms for hostages. My heart and my best intentions tell me that's true, but the facts and evidence tell me it is not.” Ronald Reagan, LOL

Fuck Reagan

That's pretty asshole-ish of you Mr. Sunflowers.
