C'mon bro don't let the opinions of a 60 year old white dude decide on your bucket list items. Thats YOUR life and you are letting it be warped by the internet. You could go to a Metallica concert sometime, enjoy the music, knock an item off your bucket list. Or you can just be with this miserable group of people on the internet. Don't let the echo chambers on the internet decide your life! Go enjoy yourself homie, go see something you've always wanted to.

It's called having a consistent moral structure with deeply held ideals. If a guy touched kids, I wouldn't go out and vote for him just because I liked a show he did. As an example

You’re comparing someone wanting to keep politics out of their concerts to a pedo touching kids?

I'm comparing not supporting someone based upon a conflict between my morals and my interests, to not supporting someone based upon a conflict between my morals and my interests.

The two can be compared. One is more extreme. Also, in my experience, the people who respond to people choosing morals over interest with "come on, don't let your MORALS stop you from enjoying something" are the kind of people who voted for Trump.

The pedophile in comparison was Trump BTW if you aren't aware.

My point is that you might not fuck with politics, but politics will fuck with you, and I will never fault someone for making a decision that is consistent with their morals regardless of what level of extreme it is applied to.

"when someone is neutral, then he doesn't pick my side of my beliefsystem, therefore i hate them". This is your reasoning

Comparing this to a pedophile shows how deranged you are

Neutrality on politics is brain dead, politics literally shape the quality of your life and the lives of those around you. Care a little more.

The problem with politics is that both left and right only care about their positions and wallets. It's the elite vs the poor and middle class. Always has been. Why does is always have to be far left or far right? You can also just have common sense...

And no in my country extreme left or right never gets in power. We have a wide variety of politic views without the extremes. But nothing changes, doesn't matter which party is in power. They make a lot of promises prior to election, and once they get chosen, nothing changes. The only change i see, is the fact that everything gets more expensive, and that we need to pay more taxes. While the filty rich politicians travel and live in luxury. Wake up

"Kamala would have been worse than Trump" ass take right here.

I am neither far left or far right in my political views, really. I'm left of center. American politics are just so far right that we can't have a proper left without it being labeled that way.

Also, I love that the extremes never get power where you live, but I don't have that luxury.

I agree that politics are more about the elite versus the common folk, but you can look at Trump and any of his possible political opponents and easily see how each will effect that divide, and the right is definitely fa r worse.

We shouldn't care about a party taking a dive into dipshittery just because the other side is there to soak water at the steps? Equality amongst classes is a subjective goal, but one of the parties is objectively better for not worsening our chances of reaching that goal

Oh i'm sure kamala would be better. No doubt about it. Nobody can do worse than trump

I'm center too. I'm not a racist, but i do acknowledge we have an illegal migrant problem. Our country and other countries in Europe are getting too crowded because of them. Do you understand what i mean with this? It's neither left or right. Not racist, but i do realise there is a problem. Has nothing to do with racism. Now if i make claims like this,people tell me i'm racist. Bullshit.

Center is what i mean with apolitical

At this point anybody would be better in power than trump. He set the bar as low as it gets znd i feel sorry for the US citizens, and even more for the people who still vote for this guy, because they are clueless what's going on
