No.

I have some regrets on some of my actions in high school, but despite those regrets I'd love to go back.

Now my life at home while in high school is another story....

So is this another soapbox topic for religious types? A topic trying to act like atheist are some big bad oppressor on theists?

I love how atheist are the "edgy ones" when basic history has a very colorful history (to put it nicely) for religious types.

and I point out that no one said these things, but you then reply:

Saying a person who doesn't like dogs, is "a person not to be trusted" is saying they are a bad person. An untrusted person is not a good person.

Your dedication to pretend you're right by playing dense is more admirable, but misguided.

Kloe_Rinz posted...

thats bullshit and you know it

Bullshit because it doesn't fit the buzzword bingo?

Those 3 discussions in this topic are not the same discussion.

TheOtherMike posted...

So they didn't actually call anyone "bad people." And that's still nothing compared to the s*** anti-dog clowns said. Thanks for proving my point.

You're being dense pretending "a person not to be trusted" is a good person. My post was never about the literal word being used, but you knew that.

You're point wasn't proven. You got both dog fans comments and anti dog comments using some hyperbolic like insults to spark a reaction.

TheOtherMike posted...

Quote them.

Them too. Either way, no itt has been more insulting than "brain dead morons who are obsessed with a fucking farm animal."

Looks like you have selected reading or purposely ignoring posts that called those not a fan of dogs bad people. Which btw doesn't mean literally using the word bad. You can someone a bad person any number of ways.

"People who don't like dogs are not to be trusted" - ergo, a bad person.

"If someone had a bad or traumatic experience with dogs I can understand them not liking them or being very wary, otherwise there is no good excuse unless the dog in question is dangerous like a pitbull or a rottweiler."

"Dogs are better than people."

"If youre not a furdad or a furmom youre not a real person, IMO"

"theyre crotch fruit people"

This is all just within the first 40 something post btw. If you are going to use thr posts like "dog haram" which were obviously seeking a reaction....the above are just that as well.

TheOtherMike posted...

Literally no one said these things itt. The closest was one user saying an author identified "villains" by establishing that the character didn't like dogs.

Meanwhile, we have users calling dogs haram, saying they have no self-respect, and calling dog owners "brain dead morons who are obsessed with a fucking farm animal."

That would be literally a lie as theres several who called people who did not like dogs bad people.

If you want to get into dog haram jokes, there's definitely several of the opposite in this topic as well.

ZMythos posted...

Within the scope of this thread the "dog fans" have been entirely mild.

If you don't like dogs you're a bad person, evil?

Those aren't any worse than the anti dog comments.

Bullshit.

Depressed and poor vs Depressed and rich. I'll take the latter hands down.

At least I have the money to go possibly address the problem.
With the former I have to wish upon a star nothing happens to me that sends me in even more debt and depression.

The poor person isn't fixing jack shit if it requires money they can't afford. That or take an even more depressing alternative, drowning debt.

Kloe_Rinz posted...

The fact of the matter is they are making decision to punish users based on whether they are posting pictures of women or men even if the subject matter is exactly the same. You dont get to call that a buzzword.

The fact of the matter it's still a buzzword you are throwing around.

The discussion you had about men's tits vs a woman's tits is not the same discussion as Thor's ass in a movie, and is also not the same discussion as Gfaqs modding posts or not on both a man and woman's ass.

You're mixing up mutually exclusive things into one, then throwing around the buzzword "sexism."

ZMythos posted...

Some of the people ITT are trying way too hard with their hatred of dogs lol.

Between cats and dogs I lean more towards dogs personally but both pets are great.

I don't have one personally because I can't afford the time and money to properly care for them.

To be fair, the same can be said about the dog fans. Like let's be honest.

Kloe_Rinz posted...

sexism is not ok.

Words are losing meaning lately. Buzzwords tossed around anytime a disagreement is heard.

If you were to see people naked everyday through this magical power, it wouldn't be this fanfic awesome ability you think it is.

Several job professions see naked bodies often. Do you honestly believe they are giddy everytime they see someone naked?

Guide posted...

Majority of the board doesn't care, it's a few really loud and unstable people that make a big deal.

She's 19 barely out of high school and just checked out a mental hospital per the TC.

TC is a 32 year old preying on someone nearly half his age who isn't fully matured and apparently has a mental condition.

He's made it very clear this for him isn't just platonic, he's open to much more. As he's gushing in so many words of how he feels the half aged barely out of high school with a mental condition is starry-eyed about him.

This is definitely on the down low side of things. Although the story is so low and pathetic I'm having a difficult time even believing this story is even real.

Forest_Temple posted...

Yet most people here will still eat from fast food restaurants even though alot of meat is from tortured animals.

Because those people don't care their food came from tortured animals?

God loves everyone unconditionally, and theres nothing you can do that will permanently seal your fate of not making it to heaven.

No matter what youve done, you can be forgiven.

It seems to come up a lot on CE. It's like the spotted owl cry for 80's enviromentalists.

virtue signaling

1. the action or practice of publicly expressing opinions or sentiments intended to demonstrate one's good character or the moral correctness of one's position on a particular issue.
2. "it's noticeable how often virtue signaling consists of saying you hate things"

Prodrivertn posted...

Your's is not the only time zone. Mid-day for me and I can't get a delicious chicken sandwitch.

So wouldn't the virtue signalling apply to Chic fil A?

The reason you can't buy a chicken sandwich from them is because it's Sunday. They're closed on Sundays to virtue signal at Christianity.

Most here aren't justifying violence, so point out who is. Most who responded to you are not.

I said that it's not kidnapping

Pretty sure the kidnapping reference is being compared to the being held against your will on a highway since the road is block.

Blocking people from getting to their job to pay their bills and support their families is going to make people angry regardless of the party affiliation.

Lol anime is filled with mega OP mary sue's

First to mind
Being Aizen and Madara.

Madaras character is OP the author by his own words didn't know how to get rid of him so he had to have a dues ex machina to kill him

Aizen and the Hokyoku(sp?) has the plot bending to his will.

The big bads in both their respective series (Kaguya and Yhwach) personify even worse OPness for their series.

Then we can take a trip over to DragonBall. DragonBall characters already hit OPness in the original series, Super introduced angels and destruction gods making things much worse.

One Piece at first started on simplicity in abilities, then went straight off the cliff. Look what Doflamingo can do with string and haki, Luffy and whatever his new revelation is, just to drop a few examples.

I topic proclaiming progressives are morally superior while judging another group is judging another group that they feel is "morally superior."

Oh the irony of this topic.

The moment they finally get their ball rolling again after all the setbacks, Ezra Miller begins causing problems.

It's like no matter how much money they throw at their franchises, fate has decreed that they will fail.

This is true as well. I see a lot of conservatives "concerned" about the student debt.

Cancel our student debt and we'll turn back

Not really shocked the group that's the most ignorant how government works is "turning" on Biden.

Biden can't wipe away our debt with a stroke of a pen, but grifters keep saying he can. Young voters keep falling for the grift.

The prices look insane to go to one. Not to mention paying for equipment.

Can someone working an Amazon afford it?

I haven't been on one personally, however an old buddy of mine went on ski trips at least once a year. This was back when we were in retail with a salary maybe 1 or 2 dollars above minimum wage.

I can't speak from experience so take what Im saying with a grain of salt, but I doubt it's an activity for rich people only.

The right wing obsession over someone (Brie Larson) they claim to hate, in their failed attempted to bomb the series (Captain Marvel was actually successful) on a franchise (Marvel/Disney) they claim to not watch (the MCU, and their constant crying every new movie is woke.)

Is it actually common though? The internet/social media may certainly give that impression, but I wouldn't call that the majority.

Scintillant posted...

Except they literally never do so

Pokemon are weak relatively speaking.

Except they literally do in the video games. In the video games they are literally capable of casually:
Small scale earthquakes
Drastically change the weather
Poison
Destroy big ass boulders
Slice up mediocre sized trees like butter.
Casually pick up humans (flying types, down to a fucking Pidgey)
Casually flash freeze
Etc.

I didnt even list all the casual shitthey do in the games. All those pokemon would be roaming around in the wild, and lord only knows what trained ones would be doing.

And that's not getting to almost each games legendary chaos pokemon threatening humanity.

Step into the anime, and the feats get more chaotic.

Your logic isn't based in realism at all. It looks to be 100% on, "it would be fun to have a pokemon!"

Scintillant posted...

They don't do any of that in the games. They just live in the grass. It sounds like you're treating the anime as canon which I wouldn't

Pokemon in the games can casually wreck havoc as well.

It just sounds like you are cherry picking away how realistically chaotic pokemon would be in the real world. Worse treating the Disney like nature of the anime and video games (that gloss over that chaos) while ignoring the capabilities shown just using the video games alone.

Both wild and trained pokemon in the real world would be chaos.

Scintillant posted...

the canon is that they are written by 10 year olds and if you thought about it none of them make any sense.

Even if you don't take the Pokedex literally, Guide still has a massive point.

The Pokemon we consider trash in the games would wreck havoc on lives and infrastructure in the real world. They aren't harmless animals, they are super-powered and actually pretty powerful creatures that are commonly roaming the earth. A fucking diglett could wreck havoc. The mascot of the series is known for frying people if you excite it. Even the pokedex hurricanes aside, the original birds (pidgy) can still casual create powerful gusts of winds.

Thank you.

Saying "why isn't it okay to be transphobic/racist/sexist/etc. about this person? They're a shitty person!" is just another way of saying you don't understand why those things are wrong.

Then talk about other non vile people then.

This discussion needs to be called out for what it is. A topic seeking for any reason whatsoever to claim someone hates trans people. TC could have used literally a non vile person and the message would have been just as good. Instead TC chose someone that regardless if they were lbgt or not, would have been called names.

Some book made a claim so I should just believe it.

OudeGeuze posted...

I don't give a shit about the problems of people worth half a billion dollars and to be completely honest I only hope worse things happen to them.

Logic of someone deranged.

Will doesn't have some history that I'm aware of to simply hate him for existing. His mental breakdown at the Oscar's certainly isn't enough to act like he deserves a life of grief.

There's plenty of reason to eat meat. If you don't want to eat it, then dont.

That's it. Full stop.

When that mentally ill is in a government office voting on laws that affect the entire country, with a following that believe her conspiracy theories, on top of GOP leadership failing to condemn her wild behavior....

She's 100% fair game.

Fony posted...

The guys here who keep crying "who cares" and "stop talking about it" are just upset that the narrative is not one of simping and defending the worse person(Jada). they were quite happy to have 100 Will Smith topics when people were clowning Chris Rock.

Definitely projecting there.

People have this poor habit of boiling down every incident into two sides, black and white scenario.

Like there's too much to unpack in this post. The long and short of it is, you are turning mutually exclusive positions on a complex topic into a simple black and white side scenario. Categorizing mutually exclusive positions on specific issues and categorizing specific positions with mutually exclusive issues.

Like some aren't even mentioning Jada or Chris, but somehow people are inserts positions on arguments, no one said.

Guerrilla Soldier posted...

i think the overall situation brings to light a lot of subjects we think are taboo. "it's not our problem" or "who cares they're rich" or "we always knew they were crazy" responses as a way of avoiding the situation entirely.

the entire world is watching a man be manipulated and controlled in what is clearly a toxic relationship. but it's not anyone's problem? is that the lesson we're teaching each other? turn a blind eye? "if he's not man enough to deal with the situation then too bad for him"?

why doesn't he leave the relationship? does he not see how clearly he's being manipulated? isn't it unhealthy for this person to be in this situation? but most are too afraid to approach it, to talk about it, question it. is this type of manipulation ok, then, by our standards?

not our problem...until we deal with it ourselves, and then, still not anyone else's problem right? this type of thing should just be allowed because it's no one's business?

The issue is this is turning more into a tabloid story, entertainment drama into Wills life.

Will going through something doesn't mean it needs or should be our business. Especially if it's a discussion he doesn't want into a public entertainment story.

It is not always our business. If Will wishes to make his troubles public that should be up to him. Not the paparazzi looking for a story to entertain nosy people.

Hoodroar posted...

If you assault someone on camera you clearly have some sort of problem. People are just trying to get to the bottom of it. >_>

People are definitely over blowing this.

Is what Will did bad? Yes.
Is mean words justification for violence? No
Is Wills mental breakdown that one night as crazy of a big deal that this should still be news, especially on a political board? No.

You have people acting like the man is crazy over this.

He slapped another man on live TV and clearly had an emotional breakdown/meltdown on live TV. The person he slapped did not wish to press charges which squashes the "concerns" why Will didnt walk out in cuffs.

Will doesn't have some long history of crazy violent outbursts/stunts, yet some are acting like it's came out that the man always had violent outbursts, or some other violent behavior.

Also like someone else pointed out, it's looking more like the people who want to get to the bottom of this, only want to for their own benefit. Not Wills.

What Will did was bad, and Im sure embarrassing soon as he calmed down, however this emotional meltdown he had is to the best of my knowledge a small blip on his record.

I never feared their army. Going to go on a limb here and assume most were not afraid. The nukes are the problem.

Scientific studies all say that meat kills you, so idk what you mean Crazyman93.

It is useful to be able to eat bone marrow above all else, for brain development as a ancient hominid.

Omnivore is useful in times of scarcity, but we 100% don't have to eat meat, nor is any of that meat "healthy."

This is not entirely accurate and more along the lines of misleading.

It's more to red meat, how you cook meat in general, and how often you eat meat that can make meat bad for you. This idea that eating a properly cooked non processed chicken will kill you is misleading at best.

Also I hope you aren't applying we can match a gorillas strength if we changed to their diet...

Her rhetoric is what's actually troubling. She keeps spreading this false idea that the President can force the 50 GOP members and 2 Democrats in Congress to vote for a bill. The president cannot.

At worse it's feeding ammo to this idea that Biden is doing illegal underhanded things to force people to do what he want. Or in this case promoting the idea.
