Queen & Trump - or: An Open Letter to Dr. May and Mr. Taylor

So glad you are here and you are not spreading any misguided ideas....

Queen fans are from everywhere and not just from your "side".

Sounds to me you can't accept arguments or beliefs other than yours, but i'm glad you can make an account on queenforum.

You haven't put forward *any* arguments, just abuse and accusations.

Looks like Trump boost Queen record sales in jolly old England this week. Greatest Hits at 39 GHII re enters at 88. Youtube hits of their main songs have skyrocketed. Dr May cries about it buy I'll bet my boy Mr. Deacon is saying cha ching!

What is my "side" ? I haven't said anything about the way I think or what my political leanings are. All I did was counter your ill-informed partisan talking point about food stamps by providing facts. All you are left with is a feeling that I'm wrong, but it's not informed by any kind of verifiable evidence.

This mentality of seeing only two "sides" is the product of country with a two party system, whereby one is convinced that there are only two possible ways for one to think (i.e. "not my way" = one giant umbrella of "wrong").

Nowhere have I stated or inferred my inability to accept "arguments or beliefs other than mine." Nobody with an IQ over 90 will fall for such a simplistic and predictable straw man argument.

I don't have a problem with ambiguity of ideas. I have a problem when people peddle misinformation as if it were facts. Let's quote Isaac Asimov:

“Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'”

You've received about three minutes of my time. If you wish to have any more, then simply put forth an argument worth defending, and maybe we can have a healthy exchange of ideas.

Well, in his foreign policy speech he did say he would sit down with Kim Jong-Un over tea to discuss diplomatic relations. That'll end well.

If (when?) Trump loses, it won't hurt him - he can lay the blame elsewhere, and strengthen his 'brand' much like other right wing populists who consistently lose do (Geert Wilders!). I would not be surprised if this whole campaign is a business move to attract free publicity and a politicized consumer base. We know for a fact that a large part of the campaign finances flow right back into Trump's coffers through payments to businesses of his (he's essentially laundering his own money), so the campaign isn't costing him as much as would appear at first sight. His business ventures had been doing rather poorly for a number of years, so this might just be a marketing move - that would explain the extreme amount of 'advertising' for his products he snuck into his campaign so far.[/QUOTE]
Very interesting and plausible stance. You're probably not wrong.

Despite what some right wing trolls here have had to say about you, you are absolutely one of the smartest and wisest people I've ever had the pleasure of coming into contact with.

Read an article about George Harrison's estate bashing the use of 'Here Comes The Sun' being used before Drumpf's daughter's speech.

And you have to love the estate's sense of humor

Being anti-PC is just a dog whistle term for being a racist, homophobic piece of shit these days. It's what weak, hateful people claim to be as they see their antiquated way of life being destroyed.

^ Thank you.

"Political Correctness is fascism pretending to be Manners"

RIP - George Carlin

I wouldn't vote for anyone part of a political dynasty on principle. How does such a big country get father and son, husband and wife getting the presidency. It reminds me of a small ,incestuous company I used to work for.
Whatever Trump comes out with at least he isn't part of the political class and that is a plus
