It does make denuclearizing North Korea a bit harder. Even if Trump holds his end of the deal, what's stopping a future president from reversing that position?

We'd be clearing one hell of a bar if our future presidents are worse about holding to deals.

So basically your proof that he sexually assaulted women is... him saying he didn't sexually assault women?

Aka the same as Trump?

that's not the same as trump at all

for instance, trump also said that he did assault a bunch of women

This is the one joke Wolf made about Huckabee I kinda hate, because it insinuated white women don't support Huckabee when she is the face for Donald's press and more than half of white women voted for Donald. It's hardly proven that Huckabee's disappointed enough white women to make that joke.

I dunno about this. There were apparently enough black men who agreed with Uncle Tom to warrant the character. I don't think the term is supposed to imply "a disappointment to all/a majority of [in-group]", though I'll admit that raises the question of how exactly the status is earned.

You're right that she made white women out to be way more anti-Trump/GOP than they are though

I mean LGBT history is inherently, by default, less valuable than history in general, because it's very exclusively limited in scope and scale.

But you just defined history's value as its ability to provide perspective, and LGBT history is definitely not limited in scope or scale of that -- particularly in comparison to plenty of other topics that are more or less mandatory.

Also what is "history in general"?

Yes, aside from that, since that pretty much describes K-12 history as a whole and LGBT history a lot less so than tons of other topics that are covered.

If we get better birth control, the debate will just shift back to birth control. It's not like it's really about altruism towards children or the sanctity of life right now (despite the framing of the debate as around that).

Right but the trick is this - even the Catholic church is relenting on birth control and rank and file Catholics use BC. The debate is well and truly lost there.

Sure, it's lost on stuff like condoms -- but complimentary, woman-controlled, side-effect free BC? Better morning after pills? I don't buy it. That's gonna renew the debate because it'll be compartmentalized as part of the socialism debate and the abortion debate, not the BC debate (which is "won").

I don't expect Catholics to be leading the charge though, I agree with you on that.

It is why I think many start liberal and become conservative later in life. You start full of hope and change and unaware of the realities of life. As they set in and you understand them, you become more conservative in how you view things.

this is the most backhanded compliment to conservatism i've ever seen lmao

And before someone points out I called yinz insane above, yeah I did. It was poorly worded. I meant insane in regards to politics. I try to ignore all politics outside of these topics as much as possible (unless politically related) when discussing with yinz. It is something I have suspected some of you fail to be able to do. I seem to remember being attacked quite a few times in other topics by members in this group for differing political opinions elsewhere.

I am able to cordon off politics as a subject that generally gets over exaggerated responses and sometimes nasty responses because people care too much about it, sort of like religion and a few other topics. I try to talk to all of you the same outside of these topics in other topics. Whether it is star wars topics, video game topics, movies, mafia, etc.

I wonder how many of you that is actually true with in reverse. I suspect there is at least a couple here it isn't true of.

Weird, it's almost like contemporary politics actually affect us and the people we care about, so we can't just treat it as a fun hobby that we can ignore whenever.

Meth and heroin are absolutely horrendous for you. I've seen cases in-person of people who had their lives entirely ruined by it. Putting them in the same breath as alcohol or weed is both ignorant and dangerous.

I think it's weird to imply here that the average person doesn't see way more cases of people whose lives have been ruined by alcohol.

Like I don't think any of us are going to have a representative sample from anecdotal experience but still, alcohol can definitely really easily ruin someone's life.

It goes to show how toxic being recklessly "tough" on illegal immigration can be - oops accidentally deported a bunch of legal immigrants who had been here their entire lives. You need to be careful about this stuff.

It's a feature, not a bug. Like take the US, historically we definitely don't check to see if Mexicans are legally here/native-born before deporting them. Or if they're even Mexican before dropping them off in Mexico.

Yes, I think the overwhelming vast majority of people who think it is good for them to be released either supports legalization of weed, uses it already, disrespects the legal system, or just supports a political party that generally supports the idea.

I mean, yes, kind of. Like if you start taking them away, clearly you hit a point eventually where it doesn't qualify as a human anymore.
