He’s not wrong. It pays much more to be on the political right because it affords more of soieties’ resources to large corporations and/or their CEOs, which is of course who pays lobbyists. Being more left means trying to get more money distributed to the poorest echelons of society, which is of course not very lucrative for everyone else.

Bernie was ultimately defeated by superdelegates, not by people voting in the primaries.

I personally don’t care for Gervais because he does shit like this and his face and voice make him unable to not be snide about it. He’s left a bad taste in my mouth for a while now.

Maybe if you were a bit less defensive and aggressive someone would’ve informed you that it’s actually spelled “pansy fucks” and you would be able to more successfully insult and fear those you don’t understand.

ITT: Dave Chapelle, man who left his hit show abruptly because he was concerned about the audience he had cultivated comes back to America to live with old white people and cultivate a new audience that’s much worse.

“Rational people grow out of far left academia” - what a provable statement this person said. Certainly doesn’t sound made up in the moment they were writing the comment.

Personal responsibility has been an excellent tool for large corporations who make deliberate business decisions causing their manufacturing process to be worse for workers and the environment. Belief in personal responsibility as a serious value is what allowed a scam like recycling to be knowingly pushed by polluters for decades as a consumer-driven solution that requires little to no work from producers even though most products can’t be recycled anyway and recycling is, in fact, not a solution to anything in and of itself.

Actually I’m down here and you’re absolutely insufferable. How you think it’s okay to take personal attacks at several people across these post comments just because they don’t think it’s feasible to completely conquer the idea of violence before coming up with some common sense regulations is the craziest thing. You’re coming off like a crazy person.

Double response to the same post. Unnecessary.

I agree. This guy’s been all over this thread and all he’s really said is “wouldn’t it be better if nobody died?” Yeah of course it would. No one can argue with that and no one should argue with the poster above you because it isn’t productive at all.

Lol, gl with that. In the meantime other people are still allowed to set more reasonable and feasible goalposts.

Man you must really hate jokes.

Who let the boomers in here? Why are we talking about communists?

I hope you one day get to live “wontonly” as you’d like to. Then maybe you too can die in the street, addicted to drugs. Either way, maybe you’ll spell wantonly right the next time you try to use a semi-large word while trying to sound like a blowhard intellectual.

Dude, the US was grown out of the blood of the people who were already living in whatever place they wanted to be at the time. Every president has done something horrible to people who were just trying to live their lives. Kennedy did an exceptional amount for the average worker despite that and if other presidents had followed in his footsteps, we would probably have a more egalitarian society today. Being a hard edged absolutist and unable to see in shades of gray and take into account the prejudices and circumstamces of the time period does not make you correct. Especially as all of your posts (apart from quickly googling a definition) have been very low effort and provided no candidate for who you would say is better, even though the other poster asked you for one several posts ago. Try being constructive instead of destructive, if you even know how.

I wouldn’t say it’s necessarily that too many people shouldn’t have a voice. Just that too many of the people who shouldn’t have much of a voice or any at all are the ones who really want to have one, often times.

There’s no drag queen church to protect them from their crimes and shuffle them around to another diocese so that they can continue hurting children. I would say that’s the most glaring difference here.

I’ve only responded to you one other time here and let most of this go but this comment is absolutely heinous. “Runs equally”? That’s just disgusting. Drag queens walk around with a target on their back for this kind of thing nowadays partially because of people playing devil’s advocate or whatever this is that you’re doing here. All three of the people in your stories were charged and fired, if employed. The church protects these clergymen from the consequences of their crimes and they’re held in high regard, generally. The worst they have to worry about is kids cracking jokes they probably won’t hear anyway. I don’t care if you’re an engineer or what your deal is but this comment is just problematic and your whole attitude isn’t convincing me that you would be much better in a different context.

It isn’t misinformation, you’re simply making inferences that aren’t inherent to the post you’ve read. Exactly what the post title and text says is true. You’re either unable to cope with something like OCD (and therefore unable to accept the post as anything other than what you personally would consider ideal) or you’re being obtuse in order to derail the post as much as you can. But really it just seems like you just need to maybe chill out a bit, have a chuckle or don’t, and then move on.
