Yes, I know that's what your wife tells you to think.

Here's my one attempt at a straight forward question: Can you not imagine a "progressive," i.e. a Keynesian who thinks that some folks systematically get the short-end of the stick, with good intentions, relatively persuasive arguments, and Achillean self-confidence?

Here is my best attempt at an honest response:

1.  Most modern "progressives" absolutely do NOT agree with the traditional Keynesian view that the economy should be primarily governed by the private sector.  You're about 30 years out of date.

2.  Their arguments are rarely persuasive and typically rely on emotional, ahistorical views dividing all people into "oppressor" and "oppressed" classes.

3.  Any "progresive" male who has actual self-confidence and is not simply virtue-signaling to make himself feel better or seem more aligned with liberal women is vanishingly rare.

I honestly think…..  All joking aside.  Political stuff should be avoided at all costs here in the wrestling forum(s).   If it gets invaded by political topics, without moderation, the possibility of staying on wrestling topic in here will go way way down.  
 

The Arguing of politics should be done in the non wrestling forum.  
 

we all know we seem to have lost the moderators at this point.   

I... I agr... I don't disagree with Caveira on this subject.

I think Henschel will make it closer than you'd think. 

But Bassett will wear him out... probably. I don't know, it seems like "Henschel has wrestled and beaten really good Wrestlers, but was he an AA? 

Not taking a shot at him... I'm just looking at the NC's Bassett has beaten.

Pretty sure Henschel never AA’d in D2 although I believe he was ranked #1 for a time.  Bassett will kill him IMO.

I’d like to see Henschel vs Georgio.

Henschel never aa'd. At one point he was ranked number 1 in d2, but he failed to make it out of super regionals. 

 

It wont be close.

I agree...I really like Henschel and think he is a gamer, but I too think Bassett will wear him out.  I'm looking forward to the match.

Bassett won't get a chance to wear Henschel out. He will tech or pin him way before that. There are levels to this and Bo teched Beau Bartlett recently.

Agree.  Not to mention Henschel is graduated so probably isn’t even in as good of shape as he was previously

He was ranked #1 a few times I thought... but lost in the most ridiculous ways. I think there were back to back years he was up by 3-4 in the last 30 seconds and he took a shot and was put to his back and pinned.

Well see. As I said, Henschel has wrestled Sr opens and scrapped with some pretty good Wrestlers.

He's one of those guys who will beat the NC during the season, lose to the 8th seed by getting put to his back in the last 30 seconds...twice, but when there's really nothing on the line, he's pertty solid.

 

We'll see. I don't really have much of a rooting interest other than upsets are always fun to watch.

I don't have a rooting interest either just noting the fact that there is a big difference in beating the d2 NC during the season and beating the D1 guys.

Patel never said the Kirk shooter was trans.  He later said the shooter's partner is trans, which is correct.  But the following shooters are trans or non-binary:

The Aberdeen/Perryman, MD shooter

One of the STEM school shooters in Denver

The Club Q shooter in Colorado Springs

The Covenant School shooter in Tennessee

"Robin" Westman

Dylan Butler

The individual who tried to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh

 

 

Maybe you should pay attention a little better.  And educate yourself, so that you realize that mental illness can often result in violence. if not treated.

I agree with the others that have said what this thread turned into shouldn’t be on this forum.   But just want to point out that if you think the Colorado Springs shooter was non-binary…lol.   He clearly made that up to try to get out of hate crime charges.

Well...as expected...Henschel with the first takedown and then Bassett destroyed him

Oh look, another mentally ill trans person shot up a bunch of people in Canada. Shocking I tell you, just shocking!
