Is It Even Possible To Make America Great Again?

Leave a comment

The phrase “Make America Great Again” means different things to different people, some believe that is exactly what Trump is doing and others feel he is doing the exact opposite and then there’s some that just think america was never great so how can we make it great again? Racism, crooked politicians,crooked police and lobbyists lining the pockets of our politicians to get whatever they want. Perhaps ask yourself when exactly was America great?

With MAGA trending on Twitter today I thought it’d be interesting to see what people are saying about it, so let’s take a look at some tweets.

Both these people have valid points, Trump has made nothing better and Democrats always seem to pick sure losers for candidates for whatever reason.

Just like magic, poof the virus will just vanish…or not.

Whoever you want to blame for it our country is a dumpster fire now and anyone who denies that is fooling themselves, Democrat or Republican.

Personally I don’t think it matters who is president, they are all corrupt and none of them give a single fuck about any of us.

Change starts with the citizens and we’re all too busy fighting with each other over everything to make any real changes to the country.

People fighting over political parties and and politicians when it’s not the Democrats or Republicans to blame, it’s both, this country no longer works the way it was intended to and needs a full reset if it’s ever going to get better.

Yes because of the pandemic there are many people in dire need of financial help, the thing is there are so many people in this country that always need that help and never get it, it’s always been the rich VS the poor and it always will be.

I certainly don’t see anything about this country that is better than before Trump was president, I don’t put full blame on Trump like some do but still…he hasn’t made shit better.

It’s a fair point, slavery existed in this country from day 1, racism has always been at the soul of our country…maybe america seems great to the upper class but to the rest of us it’s never been great.

It’s scary to think there are people so ignorant and blinded by their support of a political party that they are okay with US citizens getting basically kidnapped and held with no reason given…that was Nazi Germany was like and if you support that you aren’t a fucking American.

Lies from both sides, that’s all politics and media are these days…lies.

What are your thoughts? Do you think american is great? Do you think it was ever great? Is it all Trump’s fault?

Lead Designer for Guild Wars 2 Falsely Accuses Man of White Supremacy and Then Tries to Play Victim

Leave a comment

On July 4th as protesters walked down the I-5 Freeway in Seattle a lone car would come barreling through hitting and severely injuring two people, a horrible act in it’s own right and deserving of it’s own article but this article is about the accusations and tweets that came afterwards from lead game designer for Guild Wars 2 and ArenaNet Jennifer Scheurle. she would tweet out to her followers accusing a man of white supremacy and of being the one who drove through the protesters.

Her first tweet ,although incorrect, wasn’t all that bad as it didn’t accuse anyone specifically.

She would go on to blame the act on right wing extremism and Trump supporters.

I actually don’t disagree totally with her statement but do disagree in this situation.

Although much of her statement may be true it doesn’t apply in this scenario.

She goes on and on about it being a white supremacist that did it.

A fair enough statement…If it were actually true! except it very much isn’t as the man arrested at the scene and allegedly responsible for the vehicular attack is a man named Dawit Kelete.

Just an assumption on my part but I don’t think he’s a white supremacist…

Now once this info came out rather than admitting she jumped the gun Scheurle doubled down and tweeted out some kind of conspiracy theory type craziness, claiming the images of Kelete were “false images” and accusing a whole different man of being the attacker.

Her “evidence”

As you can see above she even released this man’s name and deemed him as “dangerous” which clearly put a target on this man and his family. she then posted what was basically a call to arms of sorts.

But the attacker wasn’t white…

She just refused to admit that she got it wrong so the accused man had to start speaking up for himself, tweeting out to her place of employment.

And then tweeting out to her directly.

He has also started a Gofundme in order to seek legal action…something a guilty man wouldn’t be doing by the way.

Scheurle has a bit of history with accusations and providing no proof at all and just last month caught some backlash for a tweet implying men that can prove their innocence when accused shouldn’t be believed.

as of writing this there has been no more public responses from Scheurle and the man actually responsible for the attack is being held on $1.2 million bail.

I try not to judge people as you never know what they’re going through or have been through that might twist their views and opinions on certain things but false accusations like this are very,very dangerous and could get people hurt or worse, she put this man and his family at risk and in harms way by making these very public accusations.

False accusations should be treated the same way racism is and I fully believe she should lose her job over this as it’s just as serious as making a blatant racist post publicly…in the latter case the person will always lose their job. There needs to be a penalty for false accusations like this or people will just keep doing it, you see it time and time again, people’s careers ruined over accusations that have zero proof backing them.

We live in a world now where you are guilty until proven innocent and people believe whatever they read without ever looking into the facts.

I want to thank The Quartering on Youtube for his video on this as it is what brought it to my attention, great content creator, check him out sometime.
