This is why @Bill Carson fails all of his high school tests. He cannot answer the basic questions. Is there a thread for all the unanswered federal fuckup fetus posts?
Friendly reminder: I don’t owe anyone an answer to anything. My participation in conversation is completely voluntary.
Then why should anyone talk to you at all if you get to play "peek a boo!"? How are you not just a troll?
typical conservatard/libertarian (as the two are practically indistinguishable in many ways). make a mess, expect others to clean it up, refuse to pay/accept liability.
Oh no, the guy who won’t debate in good faith might not take me seriously. I will suffer both loss of status and the ability to engage with a towering intellect. How will I ever recover? Truly, I’m heartbroken.
Order2Chaos is probably the most genuine and easy to take seriously person on this board, because he's honest and explores his ideas completely. Reading his posts, whether or not it's something I personally agree with, it's never once doubted that he sincerely believes what he is arguing, and that he reached that belief through rational means.
I don’t come to that same conclusion because he attempts to pass himself off as some sort of independent or libertarian, yet from what everything post I’ve read from him indicates that he’s a leftist. Therefore, he’s not being honest. Same thing with Shooter.
It's a matter of perspective. You're far enough right that O2C and I appear to be far left, which isn't the case. I think my taxes are too fucking high and I own enough guns to make you wet yourself.
I’ve remained steady in my beliefs. Only moving ever so slightly to the left. It’s the country that has moved way more to the left than I’m comfortable with. https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2014/06/12/political-polarization-in-the-american-public/
What I'm hearing is "I was always a cunt, but it didn't matter because everyone else was too. But now they've all stopped being cunts and I hate them."
Assholes can't fuck assholes. Don't make me break out the Team America clip again. You purport to be in your forties, you should know this shit by now.
If those taxes went to things you approved of or actually went to what they're supposed to would you be less annoyed at them?
If this guy isn't FF in a rubber mask, he's doing a damn fine job of the impersonation: https://crooksandliars.com/2022/11/republicans-disarray-chapter-zillion-full
Yeah no, not seeing it. The closest recent things to leftism are my voter guide where all but one of my votes are (mostly reluctantly and/or disgustedly) for Democrats (in the partisan elections), or in the CRT thread where I’m attacking the moral panic over it as unfounded. But sure, if you have a few particular posts in mind that really demonstrate that, I’m all eyes.
The death penalty shouldn’t be made easier to impose; it should be banned. Never trust the state with this kind of power. Death penalty advocates talk as though the accused is always “obviously guilty,” but people are often convicted without direct evidence and later exonerated. https://twitter.com/justinamash/status/1649108806440198144 A nice thing about someone with principles is that it is possible to agree with them. Sadly the current Republican Party has eschewed principles (see lack of a 2020 platform) for oppositional defiance.
You aren't batshit insane. Therefore you are no true scotsman. There's only the batshit insane and leftists now.
AAAANNDDD DeSantis has just signed a bill that lessens the requirement for the death penalty to 10-2 in jury cases instead of needing a unanimous decision. This was over the Parkland shootings - so Republicans are fine with killing people after birth and in fact want to make it easier, but they're not down with stopping them killing born kids in the first place.
I'm glad you finally remembered that my posting history does show that I'm not in lock step with Republicans. Hopefully you will continue to remember this.
