Nothing at all to do with fake news. Everything to do with forcing services that post links to news articles as part of their business model to sell advertising to share some of the cash with the news providers. Another attempt to do something about the current model that is forcing news providers to lay off reporters.

How you could draw either of those conclusions from the headlines is beyond me. Although I will agree that people in general, especially on social media have responded in a very cold and callous way to the death of Trump's brother. But once again, have you made any effort at all to confirm that this meme is accurate?
-
I'm not sure how you see this as an example of left wing hypocrisy. I see it as an example of the ignorance I just spoke of. It is simply a repost of a meme. With no way to check if it is accurate, no link, nothing. It's just something that caught your eye, offended you, and without any research you have decided to accept it as fact and to post it here with no context and no comment at all. That is ignorant in my view.

Airdvr seems to be a pretty intelligent guy. He also often appears to be ignorant in the literal sense of the word of many things he comments on. Just an observation. Words like ignorant should be used very sparingly in a forum like this.

I agree with the current system. It does enough to lower my irritation level. Brief quotes from trolls being answered is really a small price to pay, and sometimes the answers the trolls get are entertaining in themselves. I don't need for their existence to be completely denied. And when one of them is quoted and it is clear that they have answered something I have posted but I did not see their drivel of an answer it is pure gold for me.
-
Or, you could block anyone who ever quotes the person you have blocked. But it could get lonely pretty fast. Personally, I just shake my head when people engage with the trolls.

That's the slightly funny thing about this thread. Everyone knows and understands the basic hypocrisy of the right wing. It needs no special thread of it's own. It is understood. Indeed, that this thread even exists is part of it.

I'm in Omaha and the mid-west in general this week.

If anything they would likely hope for support from the many times larger Indian community in the USA. Harris would not be the first bi-racial POTUS if that were to happen. But she would be the first one who was not half white.
-
This is largely true. I've delivered and picked up at a couple pretty large companies this week. Mask wearing is down to near zero.

You will note that I did not say I would depend on the USA FDA alone....
-
Compared to when? Income and wealth disparity is at near all time high in your nation. This is the result of political power and influence being concentrated in fewer and fewer hands.
-
Not much of a new deal guy then are you? How old are you anyway? Those battles were a long time ago. Your side lost.
-
Are you kidding? Jamaica? I suppose you think Bob Marley was not a black man because... he was not African. Come on man, you can do better than that.
-
Hmmmm..... I'll go with the WHO, the FDA, and The Canadian Health agency and how they have balanced the risk/reward ratio. Thanks anyway.

Liberalism is the foundation of our society.

Everyone needs heroes.
-
Fair enough. What is not so fair is that you seem to think that this is somehow a left wing position. Because of course everything that is evil is of the left. Right?
-
This is getting tiresome. The people in the video you posted are not trying to legitimize pedophilia. They are trying to grapple with the problem of pedophilia.
-
I’m aware that there are people out there advocating for acts of pedophilia. I find it more than a little offensive that you are saying that it is a left-wing position. It is not some thing that is inherently part of liberal philosophy. The taboo against sex and sexual exploitation of children crosses all political boundaries. Do you get that?
-
For you to say that face to face to a person who was your friend make sense. For you to issue a public statement as a public official wishing her well is a completely different matter.
-
Are you kidding me? She is charged with corrupting children for rich men. Are you saying you wouldn’t disown her? Do you think wishing her well is appropriate?
-
Which of course brings up the most important factor in American presidential politics. What church does she go to and can she show her self to be a Christian?
-
Seems both deceptive and hypocritical.

I’m listening to Joe speak right now. If the R party was hoping he would sound weak and feeble they are going to be disappointed.
