Topic | The supreme court being a lifetime appointment is some bullshit |
Annihilated 09/19/20 3:31:51 PM #11 | Crono99 posted... Sure, that's the idea. In Canada they call it the dialogue principle. It's not that easy in practice though with how slow the legislative tends to move. Of all the things to criticize congress for, "speed" should be the very last. It's designed to be slow and difficult in order to protect against impulsive or radical new laws being passed. The representatives in government should take a pulse on the American public and find out if people actually support these things or whether it can be vetted by experienced people like scientists, local authorities, and business owners. Otherwise we might end up with a trainwreck like the Green New Deal or free college or some other horrible idea. Besides, congress has shown they have the ability to fast track certain bills like the pandemic stimulus if they are absolutely necessary and time critical. |

Topic | So now people riot for shootings that are undeniably justified I guess? |
Annihilated 09/14/20 1:25:32 PM #24 | VipaGTS posted... you act like this is an issue that just started 10 years ago. this is decades worth of unchecked abuse and decades worth of the police turning into a gang. No, not all cops are part of that gang, but the system doesn't allow those cops to stop the gang. Even if you want to go that route, there is no data that supports that narrative. Police kill about 1,000 people every year, in the whole country, total. That is not a big number. And most of those killings were at least somewhat justified. A quarter of the people killed were black (last year only 14 were unarmed), but that's because they largely live in cities and most crime tends to happen in urban areas. There are 12,000 police departments, half a million cops, and over 60 million police interactions per year in the country, and you're trying to tell me that they're murdering people everywhere and covering it up? |

The same thing happened in the Michael Brown case and the evidence and witness testimonies backed it up. All this anti-cop hatred was based on a media lie and many others since. |

Annihilated 09/14/20 1:00:10 PM #8 | I told everyone five years ago that this would eventually happen, I told them five months ago that this would eventually happen, and I'm now I'm saying I told you so. It was never about black lives, it was always about abolishing police. |

You cant tell me Trump is a regular republican There's also a reason why thousands of liberals and democrats have joined the #walkaway movement and why at several democrat politicians have switched parties this year. https://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/post-tribune/ct-ptb-snedecor-party-switch-st-0814-20200813-pe7rdcs6qfhnvetne4kmawvnr4-story.html https://www.14news.com/2020/09/03/sheriff-wedding-switches-republican-party/ https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/six-democrat-mayors-in-minnesota-endorse-trump-for-reelection/ar-BB18vpoF |

Well yeah, if you're a Republican that stands behind and supports the most blatantly corrupt, transparent liar and overall piece of shit president we've seen since Nixon, then your party deserves all the hate it gets. Yeah, keep telling yourself that. Just like George W. Bush was the worst ever, John McCain was the worst ever, Sarah Palin was the worst ever, Mitt Romney was the worst ever.... Even Bill Maher and other talk show hosts came out and admitted and apologized for doing this, and yet they continue to do it. Oh and how's Jim Crow Joe working out for you BTW? |

Annihilated 09/14/20 2:33:10 AM #9 | Damn_Underscore posted... Another one we see to this day is progressives being anti-nuclear energy. To be fair, those two incidents were pretty big disasters with long term consequences and can't be easily written off. It's like even though school shootings are statistically rare, when they do happen it's pretty bad. |

Annihilated 09/14/20 1:15:38 AM #15 | It's not even that they make bad calls. They get it wrong more often than they get it right. They delete tons of messages that don't break any rules, and leave ones up that clearly DO break the rules or worse. You don't get to be that bad at your job without actively trying. |

I just never heard of anything like that happening, there's almost always more to it. scaler24 posted... Is not wanting children to perform clearly erotic dances while a cameraman zooms in on their crotches and asses a conservative talking point? Because I'm a democrat and I thought it was just common sense. I think people saw "conservative family" in the description and thought "oh well then it's okay." Vox even has a whole piece defending it, blaming the backlash on QAnon culture or something. That's bullshit, it has nothing to do with QAnon... QAnon isn't even fucking real. It's only the fact that they used REAL children to perform sexually suggestive acts on camera and sold it for money. The film's message isn't lost on anyone, but there are a lot of other ways they could have gone about making the same point. |

I can only assume they are so dedicated to being contrary to QAnon weirdos that they'll just defend whatever QAnoners scream about. Well look at who they're backing for president. That way if he ever has a scandal like this, they can just blame it on this QAnon boogeyman they've created. |

Annihilated 09/10/20 12:22:55 PM #135 | Gainerama posted... Technically Daniel instigated every confrontation in the orig Karate Kid movie, thus why some people claim he was the true antagonist in the movie. In the show, personality wise he comes across as a nice guy but he still goes out of his way to disrupt Johnny's life when it's none of his business. Despite his good guy pretense, I find it hard to like his character and it's a lot easier to like Johnny in the show instead. Wasn't the whole idea for this show inspired by How I Met Your Mother? The two actors even appeared on the show as themselves. |
