blankfistsays...*promote
siftbotsays...Self promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued Sunday, July 28th, 2013 5:15pm PDT - promote requested by original submitter blankfist.
pumkinandstormsays...*quality
siftbotsays...Boosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by pumkinandstorm.
Drachen_Jagersays...Yeah, darn people actually know the definition of fascism because the news they watch doesn't simply throw it at anyone who disagrees with them.
Have you seen the things people say at Tea Party rallies? Or, Republicans say in Congress? They're a lot dumber than the people interviewed here.
articiansays...I wonder if politicians ever watch these videos and just laugh with glee at how easy it all is...
kir_mokumsays...false dichotomy implied. the person making this video is a vapid ideologue trying to find counter vapid ideologues to structure a meaningless ad hominem argument. basically a circle jerk of stupid.
VoodooVsays...we already did this and FAR more evenhandedly:
(apparently the sift versions are dead so here they are from youtube, @Phreezdryd feel free to replace your embeds with this)

I can agree that both parties are shitty, but again, this argument that they're equally shitty is bull. one is a little bit less shitty than the other. I'll take lazy freeloaders looking for food over racism any day.
Phreezdrydsays...Thank you, @VoodooV.
vaire2ubesays...Here's a good one:
Gays are allowed in the military not because of ethics...
its because only 23% of recruits can pass fitness standards on entry, and pay is frozen.
Eyes Wide Shut.
shagen454says...Think this guy is now in jail. He kept posting DMT videos and who would have thunk it, the cops came busting down his door.
But yeah, these people remind me a lot of the supposed "right wing", lot's of religious banter, misinformation and a general in-eloquence on any topic brought up. They really have us all programmed like a well oiled machine, see what I did der?
siftbotsays...Moving this video to blankfist's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

My_designsays...Most Politicians are shitty at the federal level. Some People are stupid, some people are lazy and some people are racists. But MOST politicians are shitty.
As far as the parties go, neither of them represent the overwhelming will of the people - so they are both EQUALLY SHITTY. Hence shitty politicians.
Did I mention that I think most politicians are shitty? Oh and by the way there are plenty of racist democrats out there too. Just like there are freeloading Republicans.

VoodooVsays...I'm hearing a lot of "mosts" and "somes" there.
Yeah it's easy for the mouthbreathers to whine and bitch about gov't who hasn't? Even when they do their jobs well, people still bitch. Even if the IRS did their job perfectly and completely fairly, people will still whine. Even if the supporters of flat tax got their way. people whine. When you have that sort of phenomenon, ultimately that means you need to tune some of that bitching out and learn to discern the valid complaints from the bullshit ones.
So whining about politicians are what people do in the cheap seats. The armchair wannabes. They're currently known as Libertarians.
If you actually give a damn about how things actually work and actually give a damn about making things better. That requires actual critical thinking. That actually requires picking a side and doing what you can and actually get involved. Something the wannabes and pundits won't actually do, because you know, that actually requires effort. Can't have that now can we.
You have two organizations and they claim their goals are to represent people in gov't. Now hey, I agree, I have long argued that parties should be abolished. I'm an independent. I owe no allegiance to either party. I think parties are....bad.
That said, I definitely lean toward one more than the other. since government is made up of....people. Parties are also made up of....people. Regardless of how you feel, there is going to be one group of...people you find at least the slightest less detestable than the other group.
To argue that they are completely the same is what we call a fallacy. And since it's the Libertarians that typically make that cop out, err I mean claim, then it's on them to prove it and going a little bit further than anecdotal evidence is required.
