This shows a fundamental lack of understanding of how geopolitics works. For example, America is the largest petroleum producer in the world. We are not particularly dependent on other countries for oil. Yet, we still import oil from other countries while exporting much of our own. This is because global economies function in symbiosis and cannot operate independently of one another. We are, and always will be, dependent on other countries. That's how the global economy works.

Of course, I totally agree. First, we need universal healthcare, subsidized daycare, a $50 minimum wage, free housing for the homeless, fair taxation for the ultrawealthy, and a blanket ban on billionaires. But somehow, I don't think that's what you mean.

You don't know what that means. The term "legal citizen" doesn't even make sense. Are you implying there are illegal citizens? You also don't understand what a secure election process actually entails. What you really mean is that you want only the people you approve of to vote. So, no minorities, no people of color, and no young people. I think we all know who you want voting. Let's not beat around the bush.

Right... Universal healthcare. That's what you want. Also, foreign aid and healthcare are not interconnected. I'm not sure where or how you're drawing a connection between the two.

Immigrants aren't citizens. They might want to become citizens, sure, but that's an entirely different matter. I actually agree with this point. If someone enters the country illegally, they have broken the law and are subject to prosecution. However, when and if they are arrested, they are still entitled to due process, fair hearings, competent legal representation, humane conditions of incarceration, the right to face their accusers, and protection from being arbitrarily separated from their children and families. Also, fuck the wall.

Your God doesn't exist and can go fuck himself. Your opinion on who people love is meaningless and ultimately pointless.

On a personal level, the transgender movement doesn't really stand up to scrutiny, at least based on my current understanding. But that's just my personal perspective, which is probably flawed and potentially incorrect. I acknowledge that. And as much as I might not understand the whole transgender experience, everyone should have equal access to gender-affirming healthcare, regardless of their mental health status or circumstances. I'm interested in the content of someone's character, not their gender. I respect people and their pronouns because I care about people. You're worried about the wrong things.
