donald trump hillary clinton 2016 debate

Donald Trump & Hillary Clinton

This may annoy some, but I like both of them (though I've been voting for Trump since 2016). Much like me, Hillary is not mean enough to handle tremendous power, though I admire her apparent desire for fairness.

Brexit

While I think it was necessary to protect our independence, I also think we should eventually reintegrate with the EU, but only with new privileges and smart contract safeguards in place to make violating the new agreement impossible.

My Day with a Yorkshire Tramp

I learned about our conflicted homeless rehab programs in the summer of 2023 by spending half a day with a young man (proxy photo) living just outside York's Micklegate Bar. After treating him to lunch and some new shoes, he told me that the reason he was reluctant to work is because 70% of his wages would be withheld to pay for his lodging. Clearly, this incentives problem requires a legislative solution.

Mental Health-Related Gun Control

Preventing crazy people from owning guns would be easier if the definitions for craziness were less subjective. There are not many guaranteed, painless ways to kill yourself. If suicidal people feel their ability to purchase arms may be restricted, they could feel forced to conceal any issues they may have.

Animal Rights

Speaking up for those who can't.

Debanked?

Accountclosed.org helps Brits suffering political discrimination (though I cannot yet attest to their efficacy).

Credit

Some girls are upset they can't be the hero because they don't have a dick — but most dicked aren't heroes and many heroes aren't dicked. Turns out your genitals have little to do with it — it's more about doing your job — whatever that may be. Like Kirsten Dunst in Spider-Man: she played her role perfectly but never got enough credit, just like Parker.

Feminism

Sexism is such a dead giveaway for an unfulfilled love life and unbalanced personality.

Prejudice Definition

Prejudice is a universal cognitive function that means to make a judgment about something beforehand based on prior experience (from pre-judicium in Latin). But it's also a term whose meaning is commonly distorted as a confusion tactic in political conflicts. Preconceptions are ethical and useful when true, but bad when inaccurate, not because they're mean, but stupid and self-defeating.

Trailblazer

It's so ironic that anyone could ever think I'm close-minded, when I've been the one trailblazing things now considered mainstream since high school.

Is Too Hot to Handle Sexual Exploitation?

As fun as it is watching these pinheads get upset at each other for repeatedly failing to control their libidos — I have to point out something is wrong here.
