A massive headline over on the news portal:
Refugees are returning home—overcrowded centers, bad food, a lukewarm welcome

What kind of grotesque stupidity is this from the author of this article? Even the headline itself screams a contradiction that should sting the eyes of anyone with even a modicum of intelligence. If you are a refugee, you aren't "returning home." Certainly not because of a lackluster welcome or some subpar meals. By its very definition, a refugee is someone who has fled. A person flees when their life is in immediate peril. If your life is actually on the line, you don't just head back simply because the food isn't to your liking. If it weren't so tragic, the sheer stupidity of these people would almost be laughable. But what can you expect when they insist on posing as moral authorities?

Taylor Reed3 said:I guess we just have to wait and see how the rhetoric from certain politicians shifts once that first wave of refugees starts hitting California, whether it's during the pre-season or right when things peak in the middle of summer....

A solid breakdown of this crisis by Zoran Meter:

http://www.foxnews.com/world/...not-leading-900293

... "MOST, acting as a coalition partner within the US Federal Government, is behaving increasingly destructively, almost as if they were an opposition party (just yesterday, their Police Minister half-heartedly opposed the decision to deploy troops to the borders). " ...

An eviction is being prepared for a family with six children, one of whom has Down syndrome.

I have no doubt that the soulless vultures here will once again find their pleasure in dissecting this on the forum.

And yet, the people will gather in the streets once more.
But will there be any coverage on the nightly news? Of course not.
They simply don't have the time.

Fucking "helpers," my ass. 🙏🙏

How much is your conscience worth?

Clearly a lot more than the conscience of those hypocrites with their double standards. 🍿>

They didn't add anything to the burden. There was no eviction because a massive crowd of citizens stepped in to prevent it. If there is no eviction, there are no eviction costs. This family reached out to Living Wall for help because they have two small children—practically infants—and nowhere else to go this winter. They've exhausted every single option available to them. People traveled from all over the United States, organizing themselves and arriving by bus just to stand with them.

And once again, the riot police will show up.

And once again, the people will gather.

And once again, the riot police will show up.

And once again, the people will gather.

No matter how many times it takes.

But where will you go?
Where exactly are you going to hide from your own conscience?
There is nowhere to run!

Grace Wood5 said:The next relocation is going to be under police escort. Is the local community actually going to foot the bill for this instead of the "rescued" family? Or is the government just going to ignore the costs like they always do?

Go ahead, try finding the typos in this sentence: How much does your conscience and humanity cost?

It’s pretty rich when someone starts lecturing me about conscience and humanity, especially when they can't even handle an actual argument. Instead of addressing my points, they just resort to cheap personal attacks. Real classy.
Ever heard the term "double standard"? Because it seems like everyone else in this country has forgotten what it means. 😒

That’s what I’m talking about! 👍

This one was already conducted under police protection.
And yet, once again, the people will gather in the streets.

I have to wonder, just how much is your conscience worth?

Grace Wood5 said:Either you’re lying through your teeth, or the Living Wall decided to foot the bill for those delayed evictions.
Which one is it?

How much does your conscience cost?

🤔 Since we're on the subject, how much is yours worth?
It's a pathetic attempt at an ad hominem attack because you clearly don't have a single actual argument left to make. 😒

What kind of evictions are we even talking about here? Are you referring to a failed attempt at an eviction? Because they gave up on that entirely. There is no eviction happening, so there certainly aren't any costs associated with one.

Why don't you go off somewhere else and try to find typos in the next sentence: How much is your conscience and humanity actually worth?

Grace Wood5 said:Even if we ignore the fact that the eviction wasn't actually stopped, just delayed, I still haven't seen you answer my question about how much this "rescued" family actually cost taxpayers.
Are you trying to imply that the local government isn't being transparent about the spending here?

$0.00.

Just how much is your conscience worth?

Grace Wood5 said:So you're saying an eviction was "successfully blocked"?
How much is that "saved" family actually going to cost us?
If you're going to act like you're providing info, at least try to be thorough.

The family reached out for help themselves because they have absolutely no other options—they have nowhere else to go with their children.

Another eviction attempt successfully thwarted today!

Rot in hell, you haters!

Honestly, we should just build a dedicated asylum for people like you, so you can sit around endlessly debating Karl Marx, capitalism, and the endless spectrum of left versus right; we could just hang a sign over the door that says "Mental Institution" and call it a day.

The media loves to run these constant critiques, claiming that during evictions, you're just exploiting other people's misery to score political points. Some even accuse you of driving up the actual costs of relocation for those unfortunate enough to be displaced. How do you respond to that?

- Honestly, most of it is just cheap shots. Evictions aren't primarily a legal issue; they are a political one. When we step in to defend people facing eviction, it’s because they are calling out to us for help. We have never once used force or gone against anyone's will to prevent them from moving or to manufacture some kind of hostage crisis. As for the claim that delaying an eviction increases their financial burden, that’s frankly absurd. Most of these individuals are already in such dire financial straits that an additional fine—if one even happens—won't make a dent in their situation. These people understand perfectly well that the only way to actually fix their problems is for someone to finally overhaul the cruel and unjust foreclosure laws currently on the books.

Hannah White57 said:Whatever, fine! I guess I'll just side with you guys then. Let's just go out and vote for Sinčić, Kapović, or Gabrić. We'll check back in four years, and if things actually look up and America finally hits a massive winning streak, I’ll be the first one to step up and admit you all were right about those alternatives. No hard feelings.

You can't possibly support all three of them.

Kapović is a textbook Marxist, a professor who hasn't spent a single second actually working a blue-collar job, yet somehow he fancies himself an expert on the struggles of the working class better than any actual laborer ever could.

And Gabrić? Who even is he? You think he's like Jambo? The man is nothing more than a tycoon.😁

Of course everyone is held accountable for their actions. Or rather, almost everyone. Except, shall we say, certain politicians. And certain bankers. Everyone answers for what they do, except for a handful of politicians and nearly every single person at JPMorgan Chase. But for the most part, accountability exists, because how else could 🙂

The big banks face zero risk on their loans, politicians carry zero responsibility for their disastrous decisions, and private interests have simply bought off the rest, yet here I am, living in some kind of fairy tale land where everything is perfect and magical.

Grace Wood5 said:🤦 Look, Prangijo, that’s just a wish list. None of those idiots over at the Department of Transportation have the slightest clue how to actually make it happen.
Saying "I want it" doesn't mean squat.

So, what, is it really that impossible to pass legislation ensuring a family can't be evicted from their own home? A home is the one piece of property where a family actually lives. How hard can it possibly be? Do they need someone to translate German law for them or something? For fuck's sake.

But sure, go ahead—it's much easier to mock kids being thrown out onto the streets from the comfort of an online forum.

Brilliant idea—let’s just try the exact same failed strategy we’ve been stuck with for the last twenty years, because clearly, nothing could possibly go wrong this time 😁

By the way, isn't the very definition of insanity doing the same thing over and over again while expecting a different result?

Incidentally, has anyone actually bothered to look at what these illiterates are even advocating for?

- Federal Reserve independence. Didn't the President recently suggest it was high time we moved in that direction? And aren't prominent economic experts like Warren Buffett actually pushing for it? But fine, let's just assume these people are completely clueless.

- The sanctity of the home. It’s literally written in the Constitution. Most American states protect against foreclosure if we're talking about a primary residence, the one place a person actually lives. But sure, these people are illiterate. I suppose if they were to ever pass a law like that, it would somehow jeopardize the entire financial stability of the nation 😁

Grace Wood5 said:Go ahead, tell me exactly who "the wall" is supposed to be saving and from what. 😒
I’m not accepting Alex Jones or Donald Trump as an answer. 😁

Just head over to the site and count the number of prevented layoffs for yourself if you're so skeptical.

Grace Wood5 said:You're spot on. That's why people have been saying lately, "I hope you stay safe behind those walls."
🤣

One really has to be a complete psychopath to find this situation amusing, doesn't one?

Oh, it’s just hilarious, isn't it? Just look at those kids who are going to end up sleeping on the streets tomorrow.

Hahaha, and they're actually out there trying to save them? What absolute idiots.

Besides, they got exactly what they deserved after being so greedy and reckless with those massive loans.

🤮

says: Imagine what would happen if, after the next election, we ended up with a Prime Minister and a Secretary of the Treasury who were complete outsiders from the fringes of politics. Just try to picture that scenario.

The human psyche is truly fascinating. It seems as though we are hardwired to bow down to authority. There have been psychological experiments that illustrate quite vividly just how far people will go into the realms of sadism and masochism when an authority figure commands them to—or at least gives them the green light.

This current administration has been relentlessly violating its own citizens for decades, but since they actually hold the reins of power—something those two fringe characters don't—they aren't just ridiculous fools or idiots.

Those two outliers are absolute geniuses in the eyes of anyone who has ever held actual power in this country.

I also find the mechanics and psychology of power to be captivating. Machiavelli wrote about this ages ago. The more of a sociopathic, evil bastard you are, the further you climb. For instance, the classic pyramid of power is structured so that a sociopathic, manipulative monster sits at the very top, while directly beneath them sits one or more total morons. The only difference here is that currently, the moron is sitting at the top.

Unfortunately, the rules of power dictate that the "good guys" always end up coming in last.
But even the good guys—which is exactly what those two are—can finish first if they actually learn how to play the game. 😉

George Parker3 said:At its core, the purpose of a family is to raise children and provide them with everything they need to thrive...

That is one thing, certainly, but a family is so much more than just a functional unit for child-rearing. It serves as a fundamental pillar of human identity and acts as the essential cohesive force for any society. If you dismantle the family structure, aren't you effectively dismantling culture, social stability, and ultimately, civilization itself?
Furthermore, we cannot ignore the reality of blood relations; there is a biological, genetic component at play here that simply cannot be bypassed.

Yet another Leftist showing up on this forum.

Let me ask you something: when hunger strikes, who do you turn to? When your bank account hits zero, who do you look to for help? When you find yourself needing protection or basic security, where do you seek refuge? Is it the government you lean on, or is it your family?

I could sit here and write endless volumes of treatises regarding the immeasurable importance of the family unit and its role within society from any perspective you care to consider—be it evolutionary, biological, or anthropological—but I honestly don't think any amount of logic would help you grasp just how vital the family truly is.
