This might apply if I said I think you support the Proud Boys. I didn't. I didn't make an assumption about your thought process. I don't need clarification about the way you FEEL. My post was in regards specifically to you posting or not posting something. I didn't need clarification on a post you made, because you didn't make a post specifically discussing the events of yesterday only. You both sided it with discussion of the summer.
Maybe lots of things, but it's not our job to coax your beliefs out of you, it's your job to tell us your beliefs. If someone seems to be getting the wrong impression from what I'm saying, I attempt to clarify, I don't get upset that they didn't take me out for coffee and interview me thoroughly before responding. And I don't really believe your current take anyway--if that really were your concern, you wouldn't have spent all summer railing at BLM and violent protests. It would have been a smaller part of your outrage. The larger part would have been, you know, the injustice they were protesting. And you wouldn't be equating them now to the white nationalists who attacked the Capitol. And I did actually ask ABM some questions and he made it clear he didn't give a shit about BLM or what they were protesting. He just didn't like them protesting, even peacefully.
i call bs. If someone makes a statement you just assume everything the believe based off that statement? You don't ask for clarification? you can believe what you want. I posted many things in support of blm as well but it seems all you saw or chose to see was my... outrage? Lmao. yeah its on you to ask for clarification of my beliefs prior to making a judgment. its nit up to me to figure out what is clear and isn't clear to you. Thats for you to define and me to then expand upon. Come on man. Good Communication is based on asking questions. Not making judgmental statements. Abm is his own man and im not going to speak for him. Ill keep it to my thoughts moving forward. Why? Because i dont know all of abms thoughts and im not going to pretend i do just because of some statements he made online....
let me clarify as well. I don't get upset. I mock. Because when im not clear its usually an attack type of response instead of asking to clarify. So when i get attacked without being asked to clarify i just return the same aggression back. Its. Ot me being upset, its me treating those as they are treating me. Nothing more. Though most aren't able to see they come at me first. And thats why the bs gets crazy from then on.
I think trump might very well be impeached. And it's important to remember he can not pardon himself out of impeachment. And he does not have to still be president to be impeached. The goal would be to prevent him from ever holding federal office again, and there would be several repugnican senators who I think would vote in favor of impeachment now, or after Biden is Prez
Making judgments? If you post something, it's perfectly legitimate to respond to it based on what it actually says. If you post lots of things, let's say over a summer, it's perfectly legitimate to form judgments about what you believe. Lots of people challenged your views, which you responded to. If you couldn't make your actual beliefs known in the millions of posts you generate, that's on no one other than you. We know you (those of us who aren't real life friends) through what you post. Maybe think through your posts better rather than complaining that people didn't take the time to spend time learning everything about you. There are a lot of people here--nobody's going to learn everything about everyone else. I haven't judged you as a good person or bad person, a good musician or bad musician or anything else. I've judged your positions based on what you've written. Write what you believe and, if challenged, explain more about what you believe. Yeah, your positions are going to be judged by what you write. Welcome to internet forums--that's how they work. Your real life friends and family are for being understood down to your soul.
This could help. You may know, The Iranians have sued him. It would be understandable if they would abduct him, shave his head, duct tape his mouth and parade him around the streets.
okay. But i have posted my beliefs. Got the tl/dr and crickets. you really think i need to write a thesis of my thoughts for you instead of just asking for clarification? This is the internet. No one writes out all their thoughts and beliefs to make sure they are understood. Come on man you know this....if you know the internet. Also. Most here dont recognize my green font most of the time.
If we’re being honest here, we are “manipulated” almost every hour of every day. Our spouses “manipulate” us. Our kids “manipulate” us. Our parents “manipulate” us. Our friends “manipulate us. Every day events “manipulate” us. It all boils down to what your definition of “manipulate” is......and how willing and able you are to use your own free will to think for yourself in those instances. The truth is always out there if you look long and hard enough. Some folks are smart enough (or at least think they are) to separate the wheat from the chaff. I like to look at myself that way.......but then, maybe I’m self manipulating.
