Man Miura needs to release more often. It’s like I only read 5 pages.

It's the bi-annual weekly release!

I’m really not into politics. Since it’s mostly just a puppet game IMO. I tend to vote for smaller parties in my country so that my vote doesn’t go to the bigger parties automatically when I decide not to vote.
I was just wondering for you Americans. Are there really only 2 options for you to choose from. Democrats and Republicans? Biden vs trump (in the end). Isn’t this like extremely narrow choice. There a so many things in between. You can be democrat while also agreeing with points made by the republican parties.
I just find it really weird that there aren’t more parties to choose from.
In the Netherlands there so many parties that range from left to right and everything in between.

there are 3
..but since the big two get 95% of the votes...a vote for the 3rd party is generally throwing away your vote

generally people are not well educated an ALL of the issues. People tend to be single issue voters and then just vote down party lines

There are a lot more than 3, and you can run independently of a party, but the bigger two parties manage to quash most of them with ballot requirements until maybe one other party sneaks onto a ballot. This year there will be 4 candidates (including Trump and Biden) on enough ballots that they could theoretically win enough electoral votes. The success D's and R's have had pushing out all of the other parties is so immense that every other party gets lumped into the moniker "third party" like they're third-wheeling on the relationship. San posted a video link a while back in here that explains it pretty well - but essentially since two parties run our system, they govern the rules and get to choose who we get to vote for. The way primaries are established also tends more towards extremism, which is why practically every non-Sanders Democratic candidate had to withdraw just to make sure Biden and not Sanders won even though Sanders isn't popular. Trump managed to find a loophole that I think will be hard to replicate if Republicans actually do a lessons learned, but even that loophole still had him going through one of the two major parties.

Normally I'd agree with your last line Killa, but honestly this time there's so much misinformation floating around that I'd say that generally there are people not well educated on ANY of the issues. If it's on Facebook, it must be real!

Man I haven't watched Coming to America in a million years (from beginning to the end). Movie is fucking awesome, I think I heard that they are supposed to make a remake or sequel.

Its already confirmed and its coming direct to Amazon if I’m not mistaken.

As for politics, @Xx and killa, being misinformed is exactly why bullshit groups make it that far.
Most people don’t even know what they’re voting for. If there’s one thing that they don’t like and the other party is against that certain point they tend to vote for them.
Just look at 50 cent for example.
Biden wants like 60% tax for rich people or something like that. 50 who isn’t a trump supporter said fuck that I ain’t paying 60% tax. I’m voting trump.
Simple as that.

Which goes back to misinformation, since Biden's plan isn't to put in a 60% tax. The top earners could hit 60% tax on their highest incomes if they live in NYC and if you tally all of their taxes together AND take no exemptions.

Of course even if Biden did add a 60% rate, it's still lower than rates historically.

And make no mistake - 50 cent is perfectly OK fucking people over to get more money. Biden's plan cuts (permanently, unlike Trump's) taxes for those making under 400K annually.

@Haoh and @xx @killa the other option is Kanye West (I'm some what being serious too).

Joe Rogan and Kanye West interview: https://youtu.be/qxOeWuAHOiw

Kanye made me wonder what he would/could do as President, he's definitely not crazy though just out there lol.

Interview is 2.5+hrs long but really good.

Assuming I didn't think he was trolling (according to a Fox headline, he's doing it just to hurt Biden) he's not on enough ballots to win. He can't win the minimum number of electoral votes required unless enough people in different states wrote his name in, and that won't ever happen.

You got me, it's a non-zero chance.

Fuck You -- San

I listened to all 3 hours...that mother fucker is crazy! NOTHING about that interview changed my opinion about Kanye. STFU and make music [that I like] or clothes [that I don't like].

BUT I will admit that I was surprised he has BILLIONaire status (I've seen 3 though he repeatedly said 5).

Noooooope. Not one bit.

Though I guess in theory it means he doesn't owe a few hundred million to who knows whom.

The type how power you see in SCANDAL with Olivia Pope, the kind of power I want lol: https://youtu.be/Wuul_R-vwhI

It happened again? I had a bunch of documents that proved that Killa is actually Hunter Biden, but they all went missing too!

No wonder Fox argued no one would take him seriously.

Drunk out of my fucking mind and missed a ton of meetings for work.

... No ones noticed at all

.. My job is really essential
