  1. 100% agreed...but in his, defense they're all on the same line in the Fox News Thesaurus.
  2. I first got off FB a few years back. It used to be a great tool to keep in touch with people all over the world. When I started to see the politicization, I thought "great, this is valuable to see the perspectives of people from a different political leaning"...I think that was worthwhile, but it quickly devolved into dozens of posts showing two ex-coworkers rant posting memes at each other intertwined with updates on various ex's and ads for hoodies with my last name printed on them. As fast as I could unfriend the ex-coworkers, they were replaced by angrier ones! As my Mom has developed health issues, I've gotten back on as a convenient way to keep tabs on all the family stuff back home, then gotten frustrated and suspended my account. That cycle's gone a few times, with the 3rd account suspension being about 3 months in right now.

    As always I really enjoy your posts...The question of his available realities really is the ace up his sleeve, isn't it?
  4. There's not a medicine cabinet big enough for all the hair product....
  5. Peter isn't minding his pockets 'cause he's too busy looking for the trickle-down
  6. Maybe it’s just‘cause I’m up past my bedtime, but I don’t think that post makes any relevant points like you think it does
  7. Many on here don't have the Fox News talking points decoder ring...I think you're referencing the "if Biden hadn't canceled Keystone, we'd be producing more oil and Russia wouldn't have as much leverage in the energy game" talking point....Is that what you're trying to say?
  8. I do see it, and sometimes I roll my eyes as I think often SkyDekker oversimplifies and over-demonizes certain things...but he's at least sharing an opinion that he's crafted himself and not just regurgitating what he saw on Fox last night.

    Ukraine

    Even if your exceedingly generous interpretation of her not being sympathetic to Putin is taken at face value, what she’s damn sure trying to do is tie this conflict back to the culture war that the GOP really wants to be fighting. It’s in poor taste at best. BTW, you should ask Winsor for a refund on the writing classes.
  10. You dual as well? I'm NS born and raised, been American since 2019
  11. For the most part, I only see BH's posts in the quotes of people replying to him...Fucking classic BH that he's explaining Canadian politics to 3 Canadians!

    covid-19

    I see what you’re saying, but at least he’s coming back for conversation. Pop over to the Fox News comments section to have any remaining faith in humanity knocked down a peg. The way those people talk about Democrats reminds me of Borat’s views about Jews. In my useless opinion, Bill and Airdvr are fairly far right but at least our common affinity for falling out of planes has us viewing each other as human and keeping a dialog going.
  13. No foundation??? Google 'Peppermint Patty' and see the results of references to conservatives mocking Psaki for her appearance. Pop into the comments section of Fox news on any story related to the Biden administration and see how long it takes to find a reference to Peppermint Patty.

    Ukraine

    Yeah if a black leader tried to pull this shit it'd slide...it's not like Vlad wore a tan suit.

    Ukraine

    Poutine!?!? That’s a Canadian autocorrect if I ever saw one!
  16. If you can’t think of anything else to say about her, just go with ‘Peppermint Patty’. Conservatives love going after women for their appearance.
  17. You do realize that two of those links are about false claims that were made about Psaki, rather than made by her, don’t you?
  18. Did the other side hold press briefings in the Trump days?
  19. Stop being lazy Joe! Go over to Foxnews and get that info yourself
  20. What you're describing here is somebody breaking into your home and pointing a gun at you. There's a whole debate about keeping a gun beside the bed for self-defense and I'm not touching that with a 10' pole, but isn't that somewhat separate from SYG? In my understanding, and I could very well be wrong, SYG is essentially taking the undisputed rights you have to protect yourself in your home, and extending that to the Denny's parking lot. And the threshold for feeling threatened and 'standing one's ground' is a helluva lot lower than having somebody pointing a gun at your head.

    Ukraine

    If only you'd picked up the phone when they called to ask you how they should have handled it!!!! When did Washington give you the impression they thought the Russians were bluffing? When they advised Americans to leave Ukraine? When they broadcast, step-by-step, the steps that Putin was going to take to 'justify' the invasion? Are you suggesting that they fact that they left a door open for a diplomatic deescalation means that they didn't take the threat seriously? For somebody who touts his centrism and arrives at all of his conclusions through thoughtful conversations and careful research, you seem to arrive at some damn stupid conclusions. As BIGUN noted in another post (BIGUN correct me if I'm misrepresenting you), it seems more often than not you get to the same talking points as Ted Cruz, what a co-inkidink!
  22. I dunno, the right seems to be considering this a constructive agenda.
  23. Yeah high school kids do stupid shit. Some of them are misguided, some of them are attention whores, some of them are straight up fucking idiots. So is your point that this girl in Sacramento, the kid in the other link you pasted above and Jussie Smollett completely canceled out racism between the three of them?
  24. John Oliver kicked off his new season last night with a show about CRT. Youtube link to the CRT segment below for anybody interested who doesn't have HBO for the full episode. I figured its about time we had some jokes going with this thread. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EICp1vGlh_U
