RockLobster Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 21 hours ago, RockLobster said: First - you replied to your own post (look above), which is kind of weird in the US. We get it, you have the Chinese opinion on gay Americans. Which is that it is unacceptable. Being gay is OK. You better hide in the basement if you think activism will make you gay. Or maybe in a closet. Or maybe, just maybe, activism will bring the discussion to a higher level where we realize being gay is OK. 15 hours ago, jross said: Another misconstruction... joining WKN and Bernie... What part of my words said gay is unacceptable or that activism will make you gay. You try so hard to right, yet being wrong just keeps slapping you in the face. I never claimed that you said that activism will make you gay. Read it again to be sure. I specifically used the word "if", which is a conditional clause. In other words "if" you think that way - then <what follows> This is NOT the same as claiming that you actually think that way (None of us are mind readers.) I agree with your other point. Activism has brought in more gay characters. Maybe not a bad thing. You'd do well to take a time out when your emotions cloud your ability to use logic.

People's reading comprehension is atrocious! It is such a weak and tiresome approach to any debate, take what someone has said/written and twist it to try and mean something it absolutely didn't in order to make a stupid/idiotic point. SMH I long for the days of when people would just listen and try to understand what someone is actually saying. You may not like it, but you move on. My favorite on the last couple of pages was how someone was belly aching that "conservatives" were trying to cancel them for being "pro-Palestinian"...never mind the fact that he was camped out on a campus (illegally), chanting hate speech and probably leaving a ton of garbage and causing damage to the campus...NO, that isn't why he is going to get canceled, it's because he is just "pro-Palestinian". Absolute idiot! Oh boy. You are one special kind of numskull. When you read 'your pages' you should think seriously about separating the comments made from one poster to the next. If you lump them all together... then you get the kind of nonsensical post you just made here. It's 'shouting at the sky' type stuff. Read my post just above about reading comprehension. It applies at least equally to you. I'm criticizing you, but I'm not condemning you. You're OK, you're fine. But there is clearly space to learn. You can be a much better poster.

Let’s be honest here Willie. If you’re voting for either one of these clowns, it’s a matter of which lies, corruption, and self enhancing grifting you are okay with to cast your vote.

A couple of thoughts: You are right that when presented with two, and only two, choices you often have to hold your nose and choose the "less bad" one. The first two in your list (college resume fabrication, plagiarized speech) are yawners for me. I am not sure what you are getting at about the 1994 crime bill. But if it the mass incarceration issue, at the time it was supported by the Congressional Black Caucus (2/3rds of members voted for passage). While in hindsight it had flaws, it was supported in its day. (https://www.brookings.edu/articles/did-the-1994-crime-bill-cause-mass-incarceration/) Biden's history of racist remarks certainly does bother me. When I voted for Biden in 2020 it was a vote against Trump, rather than a vote for Biden. I felt strongly enough about this that I voted against what I believed to be my economic interests. While I like a tax cut as much as the next guy, and worry about the Democrat's penchant for expanding the government through taxation and entitlement payments, I was willing to take a hit in the wallet to vote against Trump. That I have never been wealthier than at the end of Biden's first term is pretty shocking to me. I know inflation is a hot button topic for everyone, and it is for me. But this is not either a Trump or a Biden induced problem. The money supply grew astronomically under Trump, and then it grew by a similar amount under Biden initially. Against that reality, inflation was inevitable. Rather than putting it on a single politician, it is down to an exogenous shock. Shutting down the economy due to COVID is the proximate cause. Who do you blame for that? Democrats for pressuring for it, or Trump for agreeing to it? Yes. Finally, my third rail is January 6. I cannot, will not, vote for someone who attempted to cause an insurrection. 1 1 Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
