  1. I'll take your deflection and projection to mean that you know your position is untenable.
  2. I'm wrong about selective outrage? I'm sure Ross has a nice AI list he can post that shows all the grievances conservatives have about whatever they're supposed to be upset about this week, but that doesn't mean selective outrage is a one-way street. To argue otherwise might be the most intellectually dishonest position anyone has ever tried to take on this board - and that's saying something. https://archive.ph/fsOoa - Not that I expect anything to satisfy your standard of proof, but I sidestepped the paywall for you. Even hyper-partisan Ted Cruz knows what it is. Maybe you prefer Fox News, who classified it as a threat: https://www.foxnews.com/media/fcc-chair-levels-threat-against-abc-disney-after-kimmel-suggested-charlie-kirk-assassin-maga Feel free to use the Google machine for countless other reports.
  3. Acting as if selective outrage is a partisan issue is laughable. Did you forget Bud Light, Coca-Cola, Cracker Barrel, Taylor Swift, Megyn Kelly, or anything related to a rainbow? Or do you just ignore that because it's from people you like and agree with? Kimmel didn't get fired for anything he said about Kirk - watch the monologue, he doesn't really say anything about him, but rather he makes fun of Trump's reaction to questions about it. But just like you, I don't care if Kimmel got fired/suspended, whatever they're call it. I do have an issue with the administration using the FCC to threaten networks for a comedian making fun of the President. That is not the same as Roseanne being an overt racist on social media and a network canceling her show.
  4. Roseanne made a post on social media saying a black woman was the offspring of planet of the apes and the Muslim brotherhood.
  5. You most certainly are.
  6. There really isn't any need to compare Helen with any of her male counterparts.
  7. This speaks to how competitive the spots will be if we're writing off Mendez three years out.
  8. The real question is what ages you faster: Hookers or blow?
  9. World-level wrestling is hard.
  10. How do we feel about Team USA’s performance so far? Spencer: 1-1 (eliminated) - Disappointing. Jax: 3-2 (5th) - This feels really good, especially when you consider that he (arguably) should have been a medalist. Real: 1-1 (still hope for a bronze) - About what I expected. Duke: 1-1 (11th) - Can't be mad about this effort. Carr: 3-1 (going for bronze vs Sidakov) - About what I expected, but in retrospect it feels like he could have been a finalist. Haines: In the finals - Better than I expected. Zahid: Champ - Not a surprising result, but his dominance was at least slightly more that I expected. Hidlay: In the finals - Feels about right. Snyder: In the finals - Snyder just medals in world/Olympic events. Hopefully he can get another gold. Wyatt: 0-1 (17th) - Not that surprised, but slightly disappointing.
  11. The video I saw had the takedown about 15 seconds in. I don't think there was much striking beforehand.
  12. It really is ok to say that you liked the way Obama handed immigration. He's been the best Republican president in a long, long time.
  13. Trump also undercut a bipartisan immigration bill that would have provided more appropriate resources to work through the years-long backlogs of immigration cases so he could play political games with people. For all of his tough talk and his supporters eating it up, Obama's deportation rate was higher and more targeted to people with actual criminal records. I really don't understand why Trump supporters didn't love Obama. He did all the stuff Trump talks about. Must have been the tan suit. Bill Clinton literally signed a law that expanded the crimes that were grounds for deportation and saw a 4x increase in deportations during his last term after the legislation was passed. Hell, that legislation got the ball rolling on deportations.
  14. That's a red herring. Why would anyone support of the deployment of the United States military into the streets of its cities so it can act as a police force? It's amazing to me how many people support and cheer on the erosion of their rights.
  15. There's no room for sensible takes on this forum. You're supposed to ignore evidence or make up your own to support whatever your favorite media outlet tells you to support.
