You know, CNN… I’m American. I don’t really know the Celsius temperature scale all that well. But at least wait until the body before you assume I’m too stupid or lazy to just look it up. Either that or just use Fahrenheit in the headline.
More than a million customers in Texas were without power Tuesday as powerful storms delivered another round of violent weather to the state still reeling from an almost unrelenting parade of destructive and deadly storms in recent weeks....

The U.S.-built temporary pier taking humanitarian aid to starving Palestinians will be removed from the coast of Gaza to be repaired after getting damaged in rough seas and weather, the Pentagon said Tuesday....
This wasn’t supposed to be that quick though, was it? I thought this was going to be the primary way aid was going to get into Gaza. It could potentially need to last a very long time.
We could start with the racism. Let’s start with the fact that there’s a beloved monument to Confederate generals on the side of a cliff within view of many black Atlanta residents…
Sorry… you’re claiming that when I say that Southerners sometimes live up to their stereotypes is the same thing as racism?
I mean I gave an example. Or are you going to claim that Stone Mountain, pride of Georgia, is not a big racist symbol that everyone has to look at all the time?
I really don’t think I’m wrong, but if you don’t want to believe that black people don’t think the South has a reputation for racism, you go ahead and believe that.
It really doesn’t. But then I looked through your comment history and I’m not really interested in what lessons someone who promotes the fossil fuel industry and Facebook might want to teach.
Ah, you’re doing the “I’m rubber, you’re glue” thing. Let’s go through your previous statement and show all the personal attacks and lies, shall we?
Can you link whatever comment(s) you misread to mean anything like that? Also thanks- weirdly flattering you’re that obsessed with me [Personal attack and lie]
Also not saying this is what’s happening but your behavior seems exactly like what you’d expect from someone that identifies as socially enlightened but knows they just got called on casual bigotry. [Personal attack] Extreme defensiveness and attacking the credibility of the person that made the challenge. Just saying you fit the profile pretty exactly. [Personal attack]
But that could be a good sign. You’ll never admit to me what you learned about yourself today [Lie, I learned nothing about myself from you] but a decent person will learn and make adjustments anyway. I think there’s still a chance you’re a decent person and will do just that after you get over being angry at me.[Lie.]
I’ll just start flagging you for the personal attacks and lies, shall I?
You’re welcome to not like our rules, but neither disinformation nor misinformation (which is what you called it when you flagged it) are disallowed in comments.
You can call it whatever you like. It is not against the community rules to say something untrue in a comment and we mods do not have the time to vet every flagged comment for veracity.
