  1. Do you miss the hair or do you just love the crazy?
  2. You got me all wrong. I don't side with the Dems or the Repubs. They are two sides of the same coin as far as I'm concerned. Do you ever think that the issues of race, religion, abortion, immigration, entitlements, whatever.. are just ways to hide the actual divide: rich vs. poor? I think, with few exceptions, the media is controlled by the ultra wealthy and corporations. We are being fed a stream of 24/7 "news" to keep us occupied while the rich keep us enslaved by debt, poor, powerless, and ignorant of how they might be fcking us over at any given time. We've become this outraged, bi-polar society hyper-focused on what we're told the issues are. Meanwhile, our pensions and retirement accounts are getting skimmed, our money is being made worthless by an endless money printer and nobody in Washington gives a crap about anything but their campaigns and personal wealth. Our politicians sell their souls to corporations for lobby money, which is allowed because these same politicians make the rules. Look at who owns these "news outlets": https://projects.iq.harvard.edu/futureofmedia/index-us-mainstream-media-ownership It's a joke that we think we can expect unbiased journalism from any of these places. They all have an agenda. All that said, I think BBC News is pretty good and I think NPR can be excellent at times, though most here probably don't like that one. Neither is privately owned, which I think should be a prerequisite for trusting the information you're consuming. The truth is, nobody gives a crap because most seem to just want to have their biases confirmed in their echo-chamber-of-choice these days and happily become brainwashed lemmings, hooked on MSNBC or FOX or *take your pick.
  3. Wow @B-Man you REALLY like Tucker Carlson! (not that there's anything wrong with that)
  4. Your family members are not interesting. My behavior in my life has also been uninteresting for the most part and I believe I probably have less to justify than most. You seem like an intelligent poster. What makes you so sure some crazy ***** in a book written by men has it right? Like seriously, dude came back from the dead.
  5. Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? -Epicurus
  6. Texas banned abortion immediately. Google it.
  7. How TF would YOU know anything that isn't said by one of those outlets?
  8. I'm probably older than you think. You propose that everyone talks themselves back into the fairy tale in the end like you? Are we talking deathbed conversions? The world is too interesting and life is too short to waste my time worrying about some god that is up there judging me. I've got too much ***** to do and have no time or energy to try to convince myself that the Jesus freaks are right. Do you think that the circumstances that led you to "find Jesus" again are inevitable? Look into the changing views of the younger generations on this matter and you will see a country that is becoming steadily more secular. The fact that aging boomers are trying to control what's to come after they're gone is - well, it's a bit sad, really. Belief is slowly being cast aside in the name of science and progress, and that is a good thing. We are witnessing the death rattle of failed hippies who have become what they once hated most.
  9. Hint: you won't find this on realclearpolitics or redstate or OAN. Probably FAKE news. What does your twitter feed have to say?
  10. I mean, that fetus is a human being with a Constitutional obligation right to bear arms, right? Are you trying to take away its rights?!?!? Freedom ain't free, bro. Trust me. It's the ultimate concealed-carry if you think about it.
  11. Sky fairy guy calling me primitive? lmao
  12. Nobody's making you get an abortion. Stay out of other people's business - but you just can't, because your book says it's wrong.
  13. The concept of god is dead, you simpleton. We don't need that crap anymore. I have something to tell you about Santa Clause, too - long overdue. Are you sitting down?
  14. It makes them feel morally superior to protect life from conception to birth. After that, you had better grow some "personal responsibility" quickly! Learn to code, cut out the avocado toast, make your own coffee - stuff like that.
  15. This is how they control the unwealthy portion of their base - with religion. It's a tale as old as time.
  16. Do you guys still believe in Q? 🤣
  17. Well, I suppose once the fetus is viable on its own, you may have a point, but that's not the scope we've been given. Texas just outlawed it completely, with other christo-dominated states to surely follow. Legislating morals... will not end well in 2022. Welcome to America's version of Sharia law.
  18. We're making crackers illegal now??? Wtf
  19. The lesson is that our country is under attack by by a well-coordinated minority effort to push a 2000 year old text as law. God is dead and you are a dinosaur. I hope you live long enough to see and fully comprehend the backlash from this insane overreach. The Supreme Court and the Republican party are completely tone deaf to the pulse of the people. Those who normally don't care to bother are suddenly at full attention.
  20. Clarence Thomas literally wrote that he wants to revisit those two specifically. Say what you want about Thomas, but he's never been afraid to lay out his agenda.
  21. In one case, the woman makes a completely personal decision, about something that's on with her body. In the other case, someone else makes that choice for her (much like decrepit boomers are doing now). Charge that person with whatever you like, but it's still super schitty and that person should be locked up. I think what you're missing is the idea that the person with the thing going on in her body should be able to decide what she's going to do with the thing that's going on in her body. That's it. It's simple. Wtf do you care what somebody else does? Why do you get to say? So you can sleep well? Piss off.
  22. Brilliant. No surprise.
  23. Let's arm the unborn babies. Thoughts?
