I still don't understand why some people think it's a good idea to speak from their ass.
Whenever I start talking out my ass I quickly get embarrassed and usually hide and shame myself for hours.

Totally agree- but I know why people think it's a good idea: school. School favors guessing and lazy certainty over honest ignorance, because the latter begets critical and independent thinking, which doesn't fit into the system. Most people buy into it and by the time they are grown up they are still living out the teacher's pet archetype, where they get to pick a simple answer to a multiple choice question (e.g. dem or repub candidate) and then are rewarded and told that they are "right" and get a gold star from the media machine that is aligned to the answer they gave, and by all their friends. Nothing is shunned more throughout school than plain ignorance, and most carry this into adulthood and the workplace. Too bad, because openly admitting ignorance is the quickest way to learn, and also to not be made a fool of or manipulated like the broads in this video.

I'm tired of this slanted shit being posted on here. I guaran-fucking-tee you there are republican supporters who support slavery. Just because a small sample of Hillary supporters have some right wing idea does not mean Hillary herself supports that agenda. OP you are a faggot and you need to actually think about shit, instead of just blindly shit-posting stuff that you think supports your political agenda. This makes you look bad, not Hillary, because I now know how shallow of a thought process you have.

You're not tired of slanted shit being posted you're just tired of it not coinciding with your views. Lets be fucking real here.

No, I'm tired of slanted shit. Look at /v/news and tell me most of the posts are not Republican leaning from extremely biased sources. /v/news should not be used to push agendas, it should be used to post facts about the entire political spectrum. If you don't believe me, look at my post I did on /v/news of the Benghazi incident. I posted only facts and got downvoated. I'm fine with people not agreeing, but when they are using downvoats to disagree, rather than discuss the issue, and continue to publish their own views, again, without willing to discuss them then I get sick of the circlejerk.
I actually have views that agree with some conservative agendas, but no one here knows that because they're too afraid and/or childish to actually discuss the issues and ask questions.
In addition, this video is very clearly edited to just show people who have no idea what they're talking about after being asked a loaded question that simply is not true. But everyone here is too afraid to ask a question for fear to gaining any knowledge and insight. If I told these people Obama was a jellyfish, they would probably believe me. Shockingly enough, this is the exact tactic that SJW's use, so I guess voat and Reddit agree on something. How to not listen.

Your use of "faggot" makes you look worse than the OP. But please, keep it up. Makes it easier to know who to ignore. Thanks.

I wonder if there are Bernie Sanders supporters out there that will nod and agree without understanding in front of camera.

The first girl doesnt even know what the fuck he's saying. She just doesn't want to embarrass herself by asking "What's sharia law?"
In the end she looks dumber for just going along with it. Im pretty sure this type of behavior is why politicians get away with so much shit.

Right. The people who think that the US is a "Christian Nation" and support laws that are based on Christianity are exactly the same as the people who think that Sharia law is a good idea. There are a few parts that many Muslims ignore, just like most Christians ignore the bits of Leviticus that ban wearing clothes made of more than one type of fabric, or eating fish of Fridays.
Likewise, the Kama Sutra isn't just about sex. It's a how-to guide for living, but people assume that the whole thing is about sex. The bible was partially about local laws at the time it was written, and partially about "god's laws". The two get mixed up far too often. The Koran has the same sort of mixture, and the fundamentalists try to move the grey area around for the same reasons that Christian fundamentalists move the biblical lines around to shit on Harry Potter.

Hahaha. Your biblical knowledge is fascinating.
