It's what Russia and China are doing to us as well. That's how there is such an effort at spreading misinformation...
Well, I can't say we don't deserve it. We have done it to other countries for decades. It's quite ironic that it is being used and is working so well against us.
Your only come back is basically what ive been saying to you. You aren't even aware of how polarizing and uncommunicative to someone who doesn't agree with you, you are. its more than startling. Its scary. You try to blame me for the very thing you have been doing from day one, I've been calling you out for the whole time. I don't post people should die on a regular basis. Thats you. Look in the mirror man.
Lol. Cmon I don’t want a lot of people to die. Just a select few. “A regular basis” ha. I have and always will own everything. People can hate me or think I’m crazy for hating certain people. I’m perfectly fine with any of it. I truly do not care. I’m so confident that the only people I would ever be ok with dying would make the world better. I’m over it. My patience is DONE. I have no more leeway for the bullshit and am not gonna pussyfoot around worried about saying the wrong thing. Fuck every single one of the ass kissing trump fuckers. Go play in traffic every one of them.
and you are as entitled to that thought as a racist is to theirs. But don’t think for a moment your position isn't tossing fuel on a fire instead of trying to put it out.
It wasn't directed at you personally... Just interesting that nobody can say a time frame that was better, yet seem to support the MAGA movement.
The reason democrats are where they are is they fight fair. Meanwhile republicans have zero regard for anything or anyone and look where we are. I remember being in college and we studied the Old Testament. I’m not a religious person - it was required for us at my school. But the one thing I did take away from the Old Testament was an eye for an eye. It’s about time democrats and liberals manned up and started playing the game. Trump set the tone. And here we are. It’s unfortunate but we either sit by and watch Republicans - no scratch that, that party is extinct now - Maga completely fuck everything about the country forever or step in and try to stop it. It’s a long shot but time to play the game their way. Block everything. No negotiations. Enforce everything. Put people away. Fuck them up so badly they’ll be done forever.
okay then, you know what else you can take from the old testament? That its a sin to work on sundays, that homosexuality is an abomination, that handling pigskin is unclean(do you like football?) oh aNd another thing to take from the old testament is that its ooooolllld. so are you really gonna sit here and cite the old testament as a reasoning for your behavior when that same testament demonizes many of the behaviors and lifestyles you also fight for?????? i cant take this serious. Im missing the green font right? be careful what you wish for. Being on the losing end is gonna suck…. Just because you want a war doesn't mean you will win. the morrally correct lose in battle all the time..
I’m not saying I follow anything in the Bible. I’m saying that when we studied it, it was the one thing that I believed in and agreed with. The rest of it I don’t care. Went to Catholic schools and spent more time talking about the Bible than I care for. But once in a while something would be discussed that resonated. And eye for an eye was one. But yeah pigskins.
and how about abortion? Maybe what is resonating is no more right than many of the other so called atrocities the bible claims to be so? im sorry but using the eye for an eye “resonated” from a book that is considered near fantasy by those of your social/political stance is about as hypocritical as it gets. And a direct example of my claims for a while now… when it fits the narrative, Its okay to claim/use it(whatever stance or position). When it doesn't, cry holy hell!
and lets takecit a step further. Do you not rail on @ABM for his stance on abortion? How do you know the old testament regarding abortion didnt resonate with him? How is he not allowed his rights to feel that about abortion, but your allowed something to resonate with yo and its okay and justified???? Man… you really need to see this from outside of yourself. Its extremely hypocritical..
That's not untrue. The Dems in the house and Senate have been like naive children who believe if they play nice, the Republicans will play nice when it's their turn. That hasn't been the case. There is no fairness of bipartisan way in politics anymore for the most part. One side wants one thing and the other side wants the other. No middle ground anymore. The Dems have learned a little anyway and are trying to get as much through as they can while they can. They have reached a block in the Senate with two Dem senators who are really Republicans. The Republicans will sooner or later take back control and cram everything they can through. And the thing is both sides waiting and cramming things through, and constantly reversing what the other side has done really gets nothing done. One, because everything just keeps getting reversed and two because neither side is taking the time to put together quality and constructive bills that truly can effect things and actually help. Breyer is waiting to retire from the supreme court when the Republicans get back control. The SC should be balanced so it represents everyone. Just as should the Senate and Congress, but it's not. The system is set up for a never ending game of keep away. There is no working together. There is no fairness.
and everyone drawing a line and saying no more discussion is just feeding into this perpetual political insanity.
ABM has every right to his opinions and stances. He is allowed. No one has disallowed him. When he make threads and posts that are controversial in a forum he opens himself to dissent. Just as all of us do. My views are controversial to some and I have taken many railings over the years. It's part of being in a forum.
I do not agree with his stance on abortion. People can disagree with my stance on an eye for an eye. What people cannot argue is that I have an opinion. You sound like I cannot believe what I believe. Instead you should be arguing that an eye for an eye is wrong. I’d be all ears.
Agreed. I think we are finding more and more in this moment of time how important discussion and middle ground really is. People are so stuck on one way or the other or afraid of what consensus means. Sacrificing things we may not want to. We all don't have to agree on everything; that will never happen. It's about reaching understanding. It's about getting as close as possible to agreeing, coming together on what we can, finding common ground. But, people are scared of that, if common ground. They see the worst in each other and don't want to believe there can be common ground, that they can share any attributes with the other side. You and I are on somewhat opposite parts of a spectrum. We are both closer to the middle than we are to the ends. But, he we have different ideas of how things should be. And that's ok. We have understanding though because we share a common decency. We care. We feel. We are affected much the same way when we see things like this car incident today.
an eye for an eye is wrong. Violence begets violence begets violence and the endless cycle continues. you advocate for behavior that does nothing but continue the spin.
No. Sometimes doing the right thing requires violence. Not often, not always, but yes, sometimes you have to drop a fool.
