You've got some sort of vendetta going on here, so I'm sorry for whatever burr you have in your britches. When someone says "you are misinterpreting what I said" perhaps you should…

Great. Restrict the handouts to Type-1 diabetics. They certainly didn't get the disease by choice.

You mean like that time four Republican Congressmen were shot during a baseball practice in 2017? [1] [1] https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/congressman-steve-scali...

Even if by some crazy implausibility it was the "greatest threat to our democracy since the Civil War", that's like saying, "Man, I just got a paper cut and that is sure the worst …

It was an insurrection in the same way that any other large scale protest was an insurrection. It was not, however, "the worst attack on our democracy since the civil war" like Bid…

Perhaps in the future you could avoid leading with things such as: > that's about as useful as a story of how someone prayed and their mom's cancer went away. All I did was comment…

> IMHO, I think a flag-waving socially-conservative socialism could be surprisingly successful in America, if someone could get it off the ground. I think that's basically Trump's …

> You're being downvoted because these arguments are so bad as to almost clearly be in bad faith. I'm being downvoted because some subset of people here view down vote as "I disagr…

> The divide is on topics like anti-vax, nonexistent election fraud, et cetera. IE, actual lies. It's funny that the party of "my body my choice" is so against people wanting a say…

It's weird to think of Facebook as the reasonable people in the room. The left wants to own online political discussion in the US, and they are very bothered that the right finds a…

> Either everyone has been blind for decades or the current narrative about racism is a lie meant to achieve some political purpose. I think it's a bit of both. As the saying goes,…

My understanding is that it's pretty common on the US coasts (i.e. the major metros where housing is super unaffordable). I imagine it's a self feeding cycle. Young adults can't pu…

I agree with everything you said. I guess the point I was trying to make is more that doing these things is not impossible. It is just a matter of being properly informed (which is…

> It has everything to do with their income being 80% of their essential bills. There is some truth to that, but there is also a fair amount of truth to the fact that a lot of peop…

You can gain the acquaintance of quite a few strangers by joining groups. My town has a general discussion Facebook page. I don't know that any of the people would recognize me on …

Fair enough.

> Although I hope you are ready to meet lots of Christians and a few alcoholics every year. Always good to lump the Christians in with the alcoholics.

I don't have a side project, but this is basically the approach I take at work. Try to do one useful thing each day. Doesn't even have to be a big useful thing. It adds up. I guess…

> In your other comment, you wrote in a kinda magic-wishful-thinking way "you can only get pregnant if you really want kids". I really think you are all just intentionally misunder…

People don't like the government telling them how to live their lives. They especially don't like the government telling them how to parent. And they extra especially don't like th…

I am not up on niche keyboard lingo and assumed this was advertising a keyboard where 40% of the keys were mechanical. Really was wondering what advantage that would have since mec…
