    controversial to EH or to the wider world?

    world: idk… if i was a dictator, i would probably treat the tobacco plant like the taliban is treating poppy and outlaw the shit, then destroy any remaining crops. i have a feeling that would piss off more people than my anti-trans views.


    EH: i think usa should invade mexico, depose the government + cartel, and offer citizens to become 51st.

    pros: Mexicans tend toward Christianity and many are hard workers. Cartels outta bizness. We get more conservatives. Theres no more “work in the us, send money back to mexico” - money stays in the us.

    cons: 99% of the illegals become citizens and we would probably have to officially become dual-language. We would have to start over from square one on border security. we inherit all of mexico’s problems. if we invaded now, it could potentially present an opening for other enemies to strike

    I am not a huge supporter of guns. Yes, one should have them but they should be hard to get, but you should pass some mental stability test before you are allowed to own one.

    Maybe that is because I am from a country where violence and roberry aren’t a big deal.

    My most controversial take is that the animal rights movement is basically Ninety percent right. I eat as vegetarian as possible but I allow myself meat on like half the days but I try to minimize it.

    I also have this other view… That mass production has actually ended up breaking the world economy. Certain countries are damned to be just resource harvesters and others get to reap all the benefits. Neocolonialism is a real phenomenon…and it’s bad.

    So I actually have two views that alienate me from a lot of conservatives here…

    But my views that alienate me from liberals… They’re more obvious. But not controversial in the context of history. Like telling the audience of humanity past, present, and future that it’s bad to cut your dick off or for men to take dicks in the ass or women to marry other women is about as controversial as announcing that “pissing in a glass and drinking it isn’t good.” yes, some Indians will disagree, but life be like that.

    Probably that on average women vote more poorly than men (due to being empathetic ) causing societies that allow women to vote to destabilize. I think a better model would be house hold vote. A single vote per house hold. Must be married with biological children to vote. Man and woman have to decide together.

      Example of what i’m talking about in England.

      England is not a nation of migrants it’s a nation of long-settled indigenous tribes. And because half the vote is going to swing in the direction of “Compassion”. There will be no British people in two generations. But all the countries where those migrants came from will still be there.

      She is speaking exactly how her biology has programmed her to speak. “How would you feel if our children”. But it’s not her children, it’s millions of soldier aged men looking for economic opportunity.

        why I think the vote should come from mated pairs or widows or old grandfathers. Not to feminine not to masculine. Must have built something for society. I think it would yield a better society. To late now the west will be destroyed but in a perfect world that would happen.
