can't help but notice you weren't so eager to argue with that second meme i sent, might it be because you thought it made sense?
you're literally talking to a conservative that was born to a low medium class family so...?
also y'all claim conservatives are uneducated poor people one day and then rich people the next, i would ask you to make up your minds but we all know that liberals shift opposing points on most issues based on what's convenient at the moment.

the second part is you wanting me to argue with you about abortion, which your truth czars won't let me do, so i direct you to the options i gave adjl.
if you wanna argue which states are better though shouldn't you look at the fact people are fleeing california which is the state closest to you politically and moving to texas and florida which are the states closest to me politically? why is that

I mean you didn't address anything I said, unless you want paragraphs of walls of text here, I don't think you can justify Republicans denying the science of greenhouse emissions, nor can you really defend

Creationism in schools
allowing bans of first-trimester abortions
declassifying CO2 as a greenhouse gas
gays not being able to marry
abolishing anti-discrimination protections
Anti-union
(Not exclusively but explicitly Republican) Pro-health insurance

I'll just be charitable and say you wouldn't support half those things if it was up to a direct ballot initiative, but until then I'm sorry but the Republican party stands as a death cult and the sooner the party is locked up for the 2020 election coup treason the better.

you seem to have missed the pun in the meme, here is a less complicated meme for you

Wow, those first-trimester fetuses look really happy! You can't be honest about what Roe Vs Wade is really about though, religion and control over women, making sure sex is a committed thing, ending promiscuity because it doesn't fit with your beliefs, or most likely, old people/virgins pissed off they can't have sex anymore, using religion to enforce their own selfish desires, as they have been doing over the millennia.

from his leftist strawman kit

Creationism in schools, allowing bans of first-trimester abortions in cases of incest rape and threat to mother due to health reasons, declassifying CO2 as a greenhouse gas, gays not being able to marry. Not exactly strawmen, those are more like objectively terrible things the Republican party does that you gloat about.

Be careful you don't get banned due to your homophobia.

I mean we live in a time where CO2 gases are an existential threat to the human race, and what's your response? Protect the corporations. You're just a natural product of expensive paid propaganda.

because i tilt people from left to right on a weekly basis while you guys can't tilt 1 person from right to left to save your lives?

Haha you think you sound reasonable to a moderate that's funny.

Conservatives are created when kids are born into a rich family of 6, when people commit themselves to a physically attractive person and have to concede talking points lest they lose their fucking minds, or they have nothing better to listen to than Fox news. It doesn't exactly hold up to scrutiny.

But hey, why don't we discuss anything on Texas's official Republican platform and try to wrap our minds on how they aren't anything but evil?

https://www.texasgop.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/PERM-PLATFORM.pdf

Among these things;
Having an educated population, with parents having the freedom of choice for the education of their children: Creationism in public schools! Popular.
Abortion ban (first trimester embryos) cool, pretty sane stuff here.
Declassifying CO2 as a greenhouse gas: That's convincing. Better than science because I say so.
"Protection from Extreme Environmentalists": Something that really needs worrying about.
Employment Non-Discrimination Act and Laws: We oppose government regulations that coerce business owners and employees to violate their own consciences, beliefs, and principles: We fight to allow discrimination!

I mean I'm not even 1/4 the way through.

Last one;
Self-sufficient families, founded on the traditional marriage of a natural man and a natural woman: We are a hate group.

Well when leftists protest the riot police and snipers show up, we don't exactly have the privilege of walking into the state capitol like some people.

Yeah ok first off one of those is a regulation and the other is a ban and second you'll be so dehydrated from all the liberal tears you'll be chugging for the next 30 years that you'll have the freedom to pay $40,000 for an American IV bag because single payer is more of a dead pipe dream than abortion rights at this point.

Well, let's be honest, neither one of you would ever benefit from the right to choose not to go through with a pregnancy with a spouse anyway.

BeerOnTap posted...

I didnt mention religion. Youre shoehorning it in because thats your go-to talking point.
In fact, theres a very good argument to be made that atheists can be pro-life as well. If you only live once, and there is not afterlife, then snuffing out a life in the womb and taking away its only shot at existing is all that more consequential.

The immediate knee jerk reaction to inject religion is not a winning strategy. You should rethink that one.

No, it's not a strategy, it's the root of the problem and I'm just explaining it.

I'm listening to my 90 year old grandpa remember the times when people did abortions themselves and hurt themselves.

This is the great future @BeerOnTap is bringing back.

BeerOnTap posted...

Relax sweaty. Nobody is coming for your abortions. We just want to pass some common sense abortion control laws that will save lives.

Fundamentalist Religion has damaged your brain and you need medication.

Maybe you can explain to us why you're so excited for the world to end again? Something about being given a perpetual orgasm for being a good boy?

You're talking about saving souls, which is nonsense.

Well they did explicitly say they were going to go after gay marriage and anti-sodomy laws, so you're right, they will.

wolfy42 posted...

You can't get pregnant from a sex toy. Fuck men (or literally don't), no more sex with them, easy solution.

Yeah, and what are you going to do when they come after your dildos?

Dems fucking suck. The only response they had to Republican death cult eroding our rights is "nancy pelosi reading a poem" and standing outside singing "god bless america". They did nothing. They are fucking trash. This is their fault too. They stand around acting indignant like they are the serious players who make deals to work in the system, blocking anyone further left than them from entering, and then they stand around jerking off. There was so much they could do. I hate them.

They are coming after gay marriage, contraception, and reinstating anti-sodomy laws next, btw. They explicitly stated this.

A political party based on a cult... who could have seen it coming?

Tutoria posted...

as a non american can someone explain to me please why the scotus has so much power, it seems nuts that they can just make and repeal laws on a whim without any checks and balances. is there any prominent call to abolish the supreme court?

Yeah in some circles. They are just partisan and shouldn't be trusted.

DC movie actors

He punched that guy in the chest

I think people will talk about it (the media will push it) as long as there's nothing more shocking happening.

It's like my opinion on my friend's stomach ache.

Yeah my opinion is kind of irrelevant.

Pretty sure Apu was almost universally loved by Indian-Americans

We would need some statistics on that but who knows. I can pull up 50 anecdotes yeah "I'm an Indian and I loved Apu" but nothing really certain either way.

Yes along with the rest of the Simpsons season 52. They all deserve a respectful cancellation.

Apu is just lucky enough not to be desecrated anymore.

Fun fact: the term "tankie" was coined to describe a liberal that somehow got tricked into supporting fascist regimes because they say "Socialism" a lot. Mostly appeared in the 80s, now popping up again with Ukraine and Russia.

THEGODDAMNBATMA posted...

Mostly because I just want to see what it is actually like.

People in America act like it's some awful place, but I have never met a single person who lives there or has visited there that can confirm any of the anti-chinese propaganda we are told. In fact, most people who have been/lived there will say most of it isn't true.

Yeah I'm sure they do, but sites are literally blocked over there, and their government literally controls what the media can and cannot say, hence the danger of trusting everyone with a seemingly convincing argument.

And they did that genocide and covered it up, I forget the name of it, with the protest. Yeah if you went there it would probably be fine because life does in fact go on without a working democracy. Doesn't mean their government doesn't suck.

You can play a ftp game without paying. It's like watching a great movie and to see the last 1/3, you gotta pay about $3000.

If you're a posting on the internet you have no excuse. This shit is meant to trick the Facebookers. You traded your soul for a brain though, you know better.

They certainly aren't at their peek popularity like they were in the late 90's - early 00's. But I don't think any video game genre truly dies.

I just got addicted to those old games and it's not fair, there's nothing like them anymore... Maybe they should go back to cheesy prerendered animation if that's what sells

To recap, Kyle went to his place of work to protect it as riots were going on in the area, people got belligerent with him, he fired to protect himself. BLM supporters got in a twist over it as "their own" got shot until it was outed they were absolute degenerates, then only the most hardcore nutjobs kept paying attention.

His case became a big deal to the right as it affirmed self-defense rights with firearms, and so he keeps being brought back up over and over when he's just a boring ass kid that went through an unpleasant experience.

Small correction, he did go to another town (and state), not his place of work.

To recap on Kyle in my own head, he went to a BLM protest in another state armed with some big gun with the intent to "keep the peace", got into a spat, and ended up shooting like 5 people who thought he was a spree shooter, immediately doing the opposite of what he set out to do.

Is constantly made the center of politics but has no real solid political opinions. I don't know I find him kind of uninteresting tbh. He just seems like a dumb kid who made dumb choices. I feel like the main takeaway is "what not to do at a rowdy protest", but people keep painting him like he's a blank canvass.

DirtBasedSoap posted...

you dont know all the details so saying she sucks cause she broke up with you on a video call isnt true

Sorry I'm only trying to put together by what you said, there's really no magic words I can say that will make you feel better.

DirtBasedSoap posted...

Im just sitting here taking sleeping pills, falling asleep and then waking up and taking more so i can just sleep and not think about this

Don't go and poison yourself dude

Think about how someone who breaks up with you over a video call twice is not really a good catch.

Yeah literally anything you can do to get your brain not to feel bad is worth it because in a while you're going to look back and laugh about it. What I mean by that is don't buy into the "I deserve this" mentality.

That's funny, I've downloaded that with my friend (who was a girl, btw) and we ended up "verbally abusing" the AI because she was just annoying and boring and it was funny. Most "cleverbot" convos end up with the human getting really pissed off at the incoherence of what is obviously not a person with a working brain.

I've never spoken like that to a real woman or bragged about any fake screenshots though, lol. I know people who do and they make me sick.

I'm a heterosexual pervert, I've got an idea, I'm going to take estrogen, and permanently surgically alter my genital area, so I can use the woman's bathrooms and fear for my life. There's no way I could be a pervert more effectively.

I will be the evil trans person from JK Rowling's last book.

Like seriously, do people think liberals alter their hormones for some short-term gain? Of course not, they just hate trans people and want them dead. No trans person transitions for some manipulative reason, it's just too fucking inconvenient.

Jen0125 posted...

But they're definitely NOT predators that think too much about kids in a weird sexual way

Yes, it is the trans people that are groomers. Source: JK Rowling.

No but seriously I am seriously disturbed by the overt anti-trans legislation sweeping the nation. They're not even trying to accuse them of being mentally ill anymore, they're just trying to harass them at this point.

Anything that's not 3 inches taller than the average height of a man apparently.

We like that nice round number.

For kids in school sports.

https://ohiocapitaljournal.com/2022/06/03/gop-passes-bill-aiming-to-root-out-suspected-transgender-female-athletes-with-genital-inspection/

To their credit it has to be done by a pediatrician, not some creepy coach. Anyone can raise an accusation, the school can mandate the child get a very invasive genital examination if they want to continue to play in that sport, which will probably cost hundreds of dollars.

All in the name of excluding the 8 trans kids in Ohio that want to play sports.

Unless you are also a dick it seems like she's not really worth it.

If you're not a jerk then breaking up with you over a call is something a considerate person does.

Wolfenstein could have been a classic movie. That Hitler scene was hilarious.

In 20 years back problems are gonna be the least of her worries LOL

Those suckers are going down to the floor.

Apparently those people are aware that a lot of people find them gross and don't care because of the hordes of people who go crazy for it

Back problems though.

Bacon makes you feel gross
Steak is not enough food

Both cost too much, are pretty unhealthy, make you feel gross, and don't even taste that much better than something cheaper. They'll make you fat and give you heart problems, if you ate something with rice in it you would be full with less calories.

Pizza is top tier, very cheap for the food that you get. Sushi is great if you want something healthier. Sushi doesn't have to have raw fish, it can have cooked shrimp or no meat at all and it still tastes great.

I like how "edgy sexism" became funny recently...

Related, Idk if any of you are fans of Vaush but his beef with JK Rowling pissed me off. JK Rowling is a terrible person but you can't be misogynistic against her because it sets a bad example.

Also if it wasn't clear that was sarcasm and I disapprove of sexist jokes

Amber is a real victim too. A court in the UK found it factual that Johnny Depp choked her and he admitted to punching her at least once.

Idk why you guys keep ignoring that. This was two toxic drug addicts victimizing each other.

Yeah there's going to be a major bias towards Jack Sparrow... that's when people who's driving force is "what is cool" drop off.

I mean I've been ignoring the whole thing so I don't really know. I don't really care either, they're so rich it's just a slap fight.

Get one of those bug zapper tennis rackets, where you electrocute them when you hit them.

That's exactly what I used, haha.

I broke it into 5 pieces when I hit something and had to retreat, but I came back.

Do what I did and kill them all with a tennis racket. Surprisingly effective and fun.

No, but knowing our government Elon Musk himself will probably push that by making AI that is just as intelligent as a human and making it suffer infinitely intense suffering to increase its efficiency by 2%. Can't just have an intelligent and useful tool, it'll squeeze the profit out of it until everyone dies.

No. The liberals do not address the ails of the working class, they do not care about the rust belt. The Conservative party is a criminal organization made of Fascists. They want to overthrow Democracy because they are evil. People choose the Fascists over the Liberals. A two party system with the lesser of two evils.

It doesn't matter what your opinion is because the fact of the matter is that Fascism always starts the same way, with extreme wealth inequality.

I don't know if you've ever been to the south, but they aren't exactly doing well in terms of "wealth" or "schools" or "jobs".
