Topic | My teacher friends be like 'We get no breaks or weekends or summers or anything' |
Anteaterking 12/16/19 8:59:08 PM #32 | "We have so much we do during the summer" has always felt like the wrong argument for teachers to make. My mom is a teacher and she works far more hours during the school year than I do, even though I make far more than her. If you spread out her hours over a 12 month period, she would still be working >40 hours a week. That seems more relevant when arguing being underpaid. --- |
Topic | Impeaching Trump is nice and all, but consider abolishing the Electoral College |
Anteaterking 12/16/19 8:43:23 PM #167 | There are three aspects of the electoral college and people tend to conflate various aspects of it when defending it.
There should be no arguments for (1) and if you care about (2) than you should be pushing against (3). --- |

Topic | Fox News poll: 50% say remove from office |
Anteaterking 12/15/19 2:58:46 PM #40 | You're claiming that they asked the question that way to get a result they wanted. Let's look at the topline question for other polls recently about impeachment. Civiqs (12/7-12/11): Should President Trump be impeached and removed from office? Ipsos (12/9-12/10): Which of the following comes closest to your opinion? President Trump should be impeached, President Trump should NOT be impeached, don't know YouGov (12/7-12/10): Do you think the U.S. House of Representatives should or should not impeach Donald Trump? Quinnipiac (12/4-12/9): Do you think that President Trump should be impeached and removed from office, or don't you think so? Is everyone in the tank for Trump? Guns_of_Verdun posted... Not really. Guns_of_Verdun posted... Was that question above the results the same as the one they asked? Idk man, "How do you define your voters", "Did they ask that question", etc. all seem like methodology questions to me. --- |
Topic | Fox News poll: 50% say remove from office |
Anteaterking 12/15/19 2:26:22 PM #37 | Guns_of_Verdun posted... And as I thought. Asking the question without mentioning Ukraine or treason is the neutral way to ask the question. I posted the link to the methodology because you asked methodology questions. --- |

Anteaterking 12/15/19 1:54:47 PM #31 | Guns_of_Verdun posted... I dont think its fake if that's what you mean, but you can manipulate any result you want based on phrasing and who you ask. Thankfully, they gave us exactly the question they asked. --- |

Anteaterking 12/15/19 12:45:13 PM #14 | Garioshi posted... Fox News's polling is usually pretry reliable. Still, 50% isn't exactly a mandate. Support for impeachment for Clinton barely hit 35%. --- |
Topic | In dating terms, when should a transgender person reveal that |
Anteaterking 12/15/19 12:41:30 PM #97 | asdf8562 posted... Claiming "insecurity" is a new radical hot take You're not insecure for not wanting to date/have sex with a transgender person. You're insecure for being worried you'll "accidentally" date/have sex with one to such a degree that anyone with a >1% of dating you should be outing themselves to you without you saying anything. --- |
Topic | In dating terms, when should a transgender person reveal that |
Anteaterking 12/15/19 12:39:08 PM #95 | The Trent posted... Having preferences and a selective process in your sexual relationships If your selective process is "hope that people who don't meet your preferences select themselves out", you don't have a selective process. At this point in my life, I'm not willing to date someone who has kids. That doesn't mean that anyone has an obligation to tell me they have kids. The degree to which it's a deal breaker for me makes it my responsibility to get that information. And if I'm going to sleep with someone and then I find out they have kids, it just means that I don't sleep with them and I don't continue the relationship. If I've stated that I wouldn't date someone with kids and they lied to me, that's a different story. --- |
Topic | In dating terms, when should a transgender person reveal that |
Anteaterking 12/15/19 11:46:33 AM #85 | The only bad faith arguing itt is people pretending like they care about fertility when they're picking up randos from the bar. You guys should just come to terms with the fact that you're insecure with your sexuality. That's the only thing you're actually worried about here. Like what are the actual consequences that you're fearing? If I hooked up with someone and we went back to their place and they pulled down their pants to show they had a penis, I would just acknowledge that we weren't sexually compatible and pass. I wouldn't lie awake at night worried that I had kissed someone who ended up being born biologically male, because what I was physically attracted to were whatever feminine aspects of them made me think they were a cis woman instead. --- |

Anteaterking 12/15/19 11:17:30 AM #82 | viewmaster_pi posted... I don't think I need to spell it out. She was obviously offended at the notion. I mean, you seem to think that she was offended because she was "clearly" biologically female, but yet you're worried that you're one encounter away from getting "fooled" into dating a transgender person. Why doesn't this random person on Twitter understand how very important it is for your friend to verify that he's not accidentally going to be sleeping with a transgender person? It's completely reasonable, right? --- |

Anteaterking 12/15/19 10:31:17 AM #67 | viewmaster_pi posted... Of course not, just the people they're pursuing romantically. So why is it unreasonable for me to ask you to ask just the people you're pursuing romantically if they're transgender if that's a deal breaker for you? --- |
Topic | In dating terms, when should a transgender person reveal that |
Anteaterking 12/15/19 10:21:18 AM #63 | viewmaster_pi posted... Lmao, I don't think it'd go over so well if guys just started asking every girl they meet "hm, are you transgender?" No transgender person should have to tell every person they meet that they're transgender either. Sorry, edit my post got cut off: In both scenarios, there's a point at which that information becomes relevant. It's not immediately. --- |

Anteaterking 12/15/19 9:35:20 AM #21 | UnfairRepresent posted... 37% just said that they did according to that poll What percentage of that 37% are Republicans though? Those same Republicans were willing to look past a lot of things that went against their cultural conservative beliefs to vote for Trump. It's easy for people to say they wouldn't vote for a gay president when they don't think it's going to reach a point where they have to abide by that preference. --- |

Anteaterking 12/15/19 9:04:26 AM #34 | Zikten posted... It should be illegal to betray your voters. You shouldn't be allowed to switch parties after people voted for you. This is like fraud This isn't like switching teams in a video game. They voted for someone who was ideologically positioned to possibly switch parties. --- |

Anteaterking 12/14/19 10:48:40 PM #24 | Gamerguymass posted... Anyone that thinks impeachment is only supposed to be used under the "rarest of circumstances" doesn't have a damn clue what impeachment is supposed to be about. Even if they believed that it should be under the rarest of circumstances, I feel like they're not even arguing for why this isn't that rare circumstance. They're basically just saying "Probabilistically, any impeachment is wrong!" --- |
