It’s full of bad faith arguments, putting rules before humanity, the strictest possible interpretation of those rules, and they LOVE to put words in your mouth or waste your time asking for resources that they won’t read and will just respond “What are you even talking about?” because they’ve already moved the goal posts. Their newest mod spent his first hour as a mod getting in fights about Hunter Biden’s laptop and is so vehemently against tax increases because he’s one of the rich whose taxes would probably go up. He’ll gladly tell you that the rich are already paying TOO MUCH and they wouldn’t benefit from paying more.
But, hey, at least they ban the R word and homophobia.
Tell them I sent you. That’ll probably be enough to get you banned for “Ban Evasion” because they think somebody’s running a sock puppet thing or whatever. I don’t know, I was permanently banned for that reason when I pointed that Obama actually WASN’T separating children from their parents under a blanket policy at the border. Being right really triggers them.
It sounds like the police are incapable or unwilling to protect a US representative. He’s getting death threats for voting a particular way and I don’t care what party you’re a part of, that shit is not cool.
My oldest friend is gay. We met in kindergarten I think. I don’t remember meeting him, he’s just always been there. Cut to last year when my parents were saying they “don’t approve of that lifestyle” and I asked them “Well, what about [this friend]?” They know he’s gay, but since he doesn’t have an accent or a limp wrist they don’t seem to care. He lives down the street. We both went into the tech field. We hike. We’re each married to our own spouses. We have pets. I pointed all this out and told them “if you disapproved of his lifestyle, you’d also disapprove of mine. It’s not the LIFESTYLE, it’s the IDENTITY you don’t approve of.” I haven’t talked to my parents since. I’m ashamed to be related to them.
Quentin Tarantino is no longer planning to make “The Movie Critic,” which he had earlier said would be his final film as a director. It was confirmed Wednesday that the director had given the project a thumbs down....
Hey, numb nuts, what ban was I evading? Nothing stopped me from posting in your little clubhouse of a shit show. You lose an argument and you ban the other person? How republican of you.
Because when you’re a criminal, that’s all you are right? Other. You’re not a parent with no legal options, you’re not a provider doing whatever it takes, you’re not even a person being held for a non-violent crime, you’re a criminal and we don’t want you here. Remember that long talk about calling people “illegals?” You’ve lost your humanity for the sake of following the rules. It doesn’t get any more fascist than that.
Who was saying anything about Obama when you brought him up. You don’t have a leg to stand on here. Come back when you manage a positive vote score ya troll.
The 2 states I always saw as retirement states, Florida and Arizona, have become hotbeds of the stupidest legislation I’ve ever lived through. The whole generation just needs to go.
At this point it’s less about trusting Snowden and more about not trusting Russia. I wouldn’t put it past Russia to find a way to speak on his behalf and say what they want with his voice, power, and reach. That’s tantalizing. AI, Photoshop, social media posts, whatever. He’s under their control willingly or otherwise.
