"I'm not trying to tell people to not vote for Biden, but they need to be reminded that they are implicitly choosing genocide and justifying an evil president" is a very weird angle if you truly believe people should still vote for Biden.

The US has been backing massacres since Vietnam. Are political memes never funny?

Obama has been president of the United States and facilitating weapons transfers all the last 15 years?

He was for 8 of them, and now people miss him. What makes Biden so much worse?

Trump's handlers are gonna post such an angry tweet in the morning

@Deutschenlied
Why are you talking like I said you should vote third party? I posted that picture because the response to me pointing out the Dark Brandon meme is in bad taste in the face of the atrocities he supports was whataboutism to Trump.

Have you spent the last 15 years reminding people that Obama is a war criminal when people miss him or call him a good president?

If its a democracy you can demand a candidate that aligns with your belief. Like yall wont even admit the system is broken and rigged.

It is broken and rigged, but my options are vote for Biden or die.

Completely transforming America into an entirely different country before the end of the year is impossible.

Thats every election in the US. Your country will always be one election away from destruction and the democrats like it that way because it means youll always vote for them unconditionally and they dont have to do a damn thing.

Call it a personality flaw that I won't sign my own death warrant in hopes that it somehow scares Democrats into being better.

We should not joke about Dark Brandon when the president is currently facilitating an atrocity in Gaza.

What about Donald Trump huh? You saying Trump never got anyone killed? You telling me to vote for TRUMP?

You get Biden or Trump. There is no other choice. We can stop it with this stupid meme getting posted.

You should hate Biden, but you must vote for him. Trump is worse and nothing else matters.

Chicken posted...

Is it really a democracy when your only two choices are an evil piece of shit or an even bigger evil piece of shit?

I don't remember seeing a definition of democracy where a "a bunch of viable choices that are good people" is part of it.

Lesser evil is still fucking evil. Dunno why people havent figured that out yet. Or maybe you do know it and you just dont care as long as its your team that wins. Politics is just a sports game to people now.

It's not a game. And that's why sometimes you have to vote for damage mitigation and continued survival instead of opting out and leaving everything up to fate.

Chicken posted...

voting for the lesser evil instead of voting for someone that wont fund Israel is still a stupid vote

Well then enjoy the greater evil winning and America being fucking destroyed for untold millions.

But at least your vote wasn't "stupid"

I feel like this discussion went off the rails when people started resorting to personal attacks and insults instead of salient points.

Point is, circumcision reduces the risk of certain cancers. And if I have the choice to reduce a child's risk of cancer vs. not reducing their risk of cancer, I'm gonna choose to reduce the risk 100% of the time. Not even a question.

Are. These. Cancers. More. Prevalent. In. Countries. Where. They. Do. Not. Circumcise?

But keep crying to the mods

And you watched it

It's 10-0. That would hardly be a shock

Gobstoppers12 posted...

It's a somewhat rare cancer, but research has shown that circumcision reduces the rates. It's not "rampant" anywhere.

Can any links be shown between circumcision rates and incidences of any known diseases? You are really trying hard to avoid explain it.

And even if the penis cancer is rare, it should be clear that there are far more cases per capita in low circumcision nations.

Also, America and a bunch of African nations shouldn't make up most of the top dozen STD rates.

The superbowl is on and yall are still talking about dick hoods >_>

DarkDoc posted...

Basically, a million people unemployed means there were a million people too many born 20 years ago

Basically the entire country is intentionally understaffed for service jobs and other low-level employment, not to mention how expensive education is for more advanced jobs.

Companies say no one wants to work and you're saying no one has jobs to work, and it's all a bunch of lies.

They keep making shitty apartments and townhouses slower than people can move in. That's all I need to know

And yet most of America is lightly populated and we have giant areas that are just wide open spaces.

The actual answer to this little homebrew experiment of his, is "if you're not used to the way your penis feels without foreskin, you're not sitting in ways that alleviate the friction."

It's not really a meaningful point, because it's just a subjective anecdote. "I rolled my foreskin back and the head of my penis was sensitive, checkmate."

It's sensitive for me, too, but for some reason or another it's not a problem day to day.

Cool. Now address why penis cancer and STDs aren't rampant in countries with low circumcision rates. Since it's so scientific and obvious the numerous health benefits only a circumcision could provide. There should be direct links one can make

There is one "truth" you have expressed in the past on multiple occasions that has been part of a rhetoric that has enabled the genocide of brown people in Israel and the Gaza Strip. I wanted to see you explain your way out of your bullshit moral high horse.

This is what you posted:

I disagree with you because I believe Biden needs to stop supporting Israel and needs to call out the Palestinian genocide. According to your post, my opinion is going to "literally hurt innocent people or worse". Care to explain how I'm doing that?

Palestine is screwed because supporting Israel is a bipartisan stance by American politics and has been for decades.

My opinion is that you have a moral imperative to save as many people as possible. Letting an entire neighborhood burn because it's fair to the one building already engulfed is not a morally or logically correct stance. Not making a choice when presented with the trolley problem doesn't make one just.

Gob not so covertly avoiding quoting parts of posts he can't address.

I own several, but I guess I'm a CEgal now

89% of Florida could vote to keep abortion legal and their government would come up with some excuse for why the vote was rigged, and then make it the death penalty to even consider an abortion.

Personally, between my strong disdain of tip culture and the clown world takes coming from the pro-tip culture advocates here ITT I'll always tip no matter what, and always willing to tip generously for exceptional service.

People like that Omega guy, hockeybub, and that Erica person are just debasing themselves and making everyone in the industry look like entitled, elitist, greedy brats. At that point it's not even a matter of helping out people who make less in hourly wages, they actually think that waiters/waitresses are somehow entitled to more money than everyone else struggling in minimum wage jobs.

Working class traitors, I'd say.

I'm not sure why illiterate people think they have the right to share opinions on the Internet. You'd have to have read a single post from this topic wrongly and then ignored my entire posting history to come to the conclusion you just did.

One worry I have with this sort of thing is that doctors will happily sign off on it for things like chronic diseases that don't have an effective medical treatment, even diseases that have a psychological component.

Many doctors see these people as a problem they can't fix and some doctors think that medically assisted suicide is a solution to the problem. Its a mistake to think that the profession itself confers people with some special sense of ethics.

Uh this is exactly when assisted suicide should be available. If your problem can't be fixed and will only get worse, then why shouldn't you be allowed to die? It's cruel and unethical to not allow someone that option.

If you can't be saved, why should you be be forced to live?

DarkDoc posted...

It's not compulsory. Stop tipping and see what happens.

I didn't say it was compulsory. I said not tipping will not compel employers to pay their employees more. They'll just fire waiters that don't make enough in tips. Not tipping exclusively hurts the workers and does nothing to force the employer to change.

Employers need to be forced by law to change.

Irrelevant. I think this is about it from this topic.

Why should someone guaranteed to die horribly be forced to live until then?

SHRlKE posted...

What about if they have mental health issues and dont have the capacity to make a rationale decision?

This is like hearing someone defend adults' decision to have consensual sex and going "But what about children?" Clearly it wouldn't apply to those situations!

IHeartRadiation posted...

You think a physician is the same as a psychotherapist? OK.

Does a psychotherapist make terminal medical diagnoses?

If someone is guaranteed die in terrible circumstances, we don't need to evaluate their mental state. Of course, it's compromised. They are scared out of their minds at the prospect of dying in agony or having completely lost their sense of self.

Stop acting like there will be a future where doctors recommend suicide for curable/treatable ailments.

Kurt_Russel posted...

You know who else burned books?

I can't see what you are saying

IHeartRadiation posted...

This is a compromise I'm willing to offer even though I dont believe in assisted suicide at all but at minimum mental and physical health professionals who after a series of coordinated attempts at treatments were left with no other option.

What should a person with an increasingly debilitating disease leading to a guaranteed miserable death do if you don't "believe" in assisted suicide?

Omega posted...

I wish all American restaurants would just add an automatic 20% gratuity to every ticket. It would solve all of this bullshit.

Would it? Now they'd be actually obligating customers to pay their staff.

IHeartRadiation posted...

Yes. And this changes what?

There's still something unsavory about leaving the decision of "is this person's death worth it" to physicians (whose job is to keep people alive) and people who are literally ill.

uh who should make the decision? And doctors' jobs are to treat people, to help them. If there is no cure and things will only get worse before a horrific death, then assisted suicide would be ethical if the patient chooses that.

The response is just don't eat out and let the businesses die for it.

So we aren't eating out to pay waiters, but we are eating out to save businesses? Bad businesses should die. They can be replaced by good ones.

Oh good. Can't wait for a puff piece on a murderous dictator that paints his invasion of another country as good.
