Anteaterking 09/26/17 2:51:36 PM #13 | They should have the vote anyway. Give most of their members a nice participation trophy for voting to repeal Obamacare. --- |

Anteaterking 09/26/17 1:47:49 PM #22 | byron posted... Black people who protest. I was going to say "Other black people", but basically this. --- |
Topic | Has anyone else noticed that republicans are more friendly over all? |
Anteaterking 09/26/17 1:45:47 PM #56 | ShotOJameson posted... Anteaterking posted...In a small rural town, you "know" everyone so it appears like everyone is friendly to their neighbors, but anyone who is somewhat abnormal essentially gets ostracized. I'll slightly disagree. I don't think it's that city people are necessarily more accepting. It's that if I have an altercation with my neighbor, the whole city doesn't find out about it. --- |
Topic | Are America's problems Income based or Racial based? |
Anteaterking 09/26/17 1:44:01 PM #16 | The problems in our country aren't one dimensional. Your income may lead to more disadvantages, and if you look at a fixed income, your race may lead to more disadvantages. --- |
Topic | Has anyone else noticed that republicans are more friendly over all? |
Anteaterking 09/26/17 1:38:40 PM #50 | KILBOTz posted... all things equal, no. I have noticed that rural people are a lot friendlier than urban livers. As someone who grew up in a small rural town and now lives in a reasonably sized city, I would disagree. I think it's along the lines of what @pinky0926 is saying. In a small rural town, you "know" everyone so it appears like everyone is friendly to their neighbors, but anyone who is somewhat abnormal essentially gets ostracized. Whereas where I live in the city now, I barely know any of the people on my block, but I also don't have much animus towards any of them. --- |

The problem with GoFundMe as a way of paying medical expenses is that it turns the question of who gets healthcare into a contest of who has the biggest sob story or knows more people. --- |

Anteaterking posted...pinky0926 posted...It's difficult to keep identifying as liberal when there's a distinct anti-intellectual element to a lot of liberal dialogue now. I sort of disagree with that being anti-intellectualism (even if I agree that it's a problem), but I'll accept that as the working definition for the sake of this topic. --- |

Topic | So it looks like the NFL ratings/viewership are not actually declining much. |
Anteaterking 09/25/17 7:58:56 PM #22 | Like I'm trying to imagine not watching a TV show that I used to love because something in the theme song bothers me. I would turn it on after the theme song. --- |
Topic | So it looks like the NFL ratings/viewership are not actually declining much. |
Anteaterking 09/25/17 7:50:17 PM #14 | EternalDivide posted... Thanks to the Rams and Chargers being here I've taken up watching way way more college games on Saturday. Usually I just watched USC. And honestly it's been like an epiphany. There's no political kneeling bs. There's bigger plays. There's not the talking heads bemoaning concussion drama. No flags left and right for damn minor everything. It's football. Like, it's real football. Remember when the NFL use to be that? I get about 30 games across a dozen channels from morning to midnight. Literally thinks college football is better to watch. --- |

Anteaterking 09/25/17 7:13:41 PM #10 | Bagamak posted... they are addicted to football and it's taking time for them to wean off it and give it up. but there will be a drop in numbers if they keep kneeling forever. imagine if they just kneel from now on at every game for years and years. people will get sick of it They'd probably stop showing the anthem first. Like it used to be. --- |

If only he could see the irony in his actions. I think cosmic irony applies. If we knew at the beginning that he was going to get in a car crash, it would be dramatic irony. --- |

Anteaterking 09/25/17 12:34:43 PM #7 | TheJBD posted... Anteaterking posted...I don't know why people keep equating the flag and the anthem. That's like saying that disrespecting the British national anthem means you are disrespecting the Queen. --- |

Topic | My thoughts about the "kneeling" situation the NFL is in |
Anteaterking 09/25/17 12:23:21 PM #160 | TrollSlayer11 posted... Right and kneeling on the grass is a step forwards. Swear this is the generation of Instagram activism. Act all indignant and morally outraged about something then continue on as if nothing has changed. It's not like these players are doing a REAL protest like Muhammad Ali in the 60s who actually sacrificed his career over the immoral war in Vietnam. I'm not even trying to argue with you about whether the protests are "worthwhile". I just called the idea of "making our own league" naive. --- |
Topic | 'Hepeating' is the new 'mansplaining' and it's definitely happened to you |
Anteaterking 09/25/17 10:39:49 AM #30 | Doesn't roll off the tongue as well as mansplaining. You sort of what to emphasize the "he", but then it sounds less like repeating. --- |

Anteaterking 09/25/17 10:06:24 AM #157 | TrollSlayer11 posted... Anteaterking posted...TrollSlayer11 posted...What would be strong is if instead of kneeling for a song and then going to play the game anyway, black players formed their own NFL and pretty much took over. Black teams, black coaches, black owners. Take all the talent from the NFL and just form our own league owned by us and force the media and corporations to fall in line with the talent and the big names. It's obviously not easy to form your own league, even if you have the star players going along with it. Are there a lot of wealthy black people who are just waiting to invest a large amount of money into a protest league? Can you fill a league with just black coaches with NFL experience? Are all of those players going to take huge pay cuts to play in a segregated league? It just seems like it would be a step backwards, not forwards. --- |

Anteaterking 09/24/17 10:44:29 PM #39 | D-Lo_BrownTown posted... BLAKUboy posted...As always, conservatives magically don't care when it's their people doing the things they crucify the left for. Plenty of liberals said what Hillary did was reckless and dumb. It was still a deal, just not compared to how much coverage it got. And it becomes more of a deal now that there's precedent. --- |

Anteaterking posted...Nomadic View posted...Were they marked with the "[C]" symbol to convey classified information, like the emails Hillary destroyed? Right, I know that some things are classified in some sources after being published unclassified in others. There's also the fact that some of the emails in question were improperly classified, in that they contained classified information but didn't properly add the classification banners at the top and bottom of the email. --- |

Anteaterking 09/24/17 9:46:21 PM #6 | Johnny_Nutcase posted... I hope people are finally realizing the commercial breaks are god damn ridiculous. The "picture in picture" they are doing in some games for what would normally be full commercial breaks are improving on that front. --- |
Topic | They penalize touchdown celebrations, but kneeling during the anthem is allowed. |
Anteaterking 09/24/17 8:45:09 PM #31 | Another reason they were cracking down on TD celebrations is because they disrupted the flow of the game. --- |

Anteaterking 09/24/17 8:18:35 PM #7 | The first two are taken competently, but the subjects aren't that great. (Also, using black and white or sepia just says "I'm trying to be artsy") I like the cake one. --- |
