    You are the worse type of person if you actually believe that. You fell for your political overlords telling you that you are smarter because you believe what they believe and that the other side is wrong because they are dumb.

    You example is also a simplified soundbyte politicians use to rally their base.
    Nobody argues the merits of health, education, or taxes.
    People want to change education in the US because it has become the norm to blindly go to college with no endgoal and end up tens of thousand of dollars in high risk debt with no collateral. Students are literately encouraged to go to college first, then halfway though, decide what they want to do. In addition, most college professors are actively and violently against right-winged ideology. Everyone politician touts value of STEM education.
    Government programs in nature will always grow unless specifically made to be limited. Taxes and debt grow because spending is ten times easier to introduce than cutting. Once people start taking advantage of a program, it becomes harder and harder to repeal a program politically no matter how much damage it has done. Government programs easily become too big to fail, and are encouraged to spend all of its budget lest it receives less.

    Get your head out of your ass.

    Actually Grover Cleveland still holds the record for fattest president.
    Trump takes the cake for dumbest though.

    The people who voted for him are just as dumb as the president, a leader of morons is still a moron. I voted 3rd party because I didn't feel like supporting shitty candidates. Now I regret it because Hillary wouldn't of tried to fucking defund the Department of Health and Human Services. She would of kept the status quo of everything is terrible and change nothing. I rather have that than murdering a shitload of american citizens because they can't afford good healthcare.

    It's only a matter of time he goes after state insurance as well. Good thing I rarely leave my fucking house nowadays, avoiding getting hurt or sick.
    I just want people to stop trying to kill me for just existing for once. Bad enough I have Jewish heritage and native american blood.

    facebook is garbage. instagram is normie. twitter is the real unfiltered shit

    its part of the reason why its completely unprofitable. its usefullness by extension makes it impossible to monetize

    Dismissed. My overlords are decidedly right wing and therefore are dumb.

    People who genuinely believe that capitalism works for society are on the same level as flat-earthers and climate change deniers.

    political compass exists separate from any nation's politics. Ideas are still inherently liberal conservative statist libertarian.

    Thats some utopian thoughts right there.
    The leftist ideas of the major democratic party in the US are barely leftist in Belgian politics. You're talking about the broader left vs right political theory which completely differs from practical real life application. Nice try though
