Good point, and this is exactly... EXACTLY... why I've been meaning to rename this alt since it turned 10 but have failed to do so because once in a great while, now for example, it just is too fucking relevant for a name chance :P

I completely forgot about ERB.


Fun facts...
(Mal might HATE this because it is so anecdotal and so irrelevant to the topic)...

In high school or Jr. High, I went on a field trip to the local college (main one out of three) and saw a collegiate improv group called "Mission Improvable" perform. I thought it was neat. Whose Line Is It Anyway was popular then and I was a fan of both the U.S. and British versions. This local college group was decent, but local... and college... and amateur.

Fast forward to late 2017 (literally a few weeks ago). I have been an ERB fan for years. I've watched all episodes. Got into it during early season 3. Found out that the main rappers/founders/people got their start at a local college as founders of an improv group called "Mission Improvable" and they attended said college when I was in Jr. high and high school and would have been there when I went on said field trip.

For context, I am now 35, and ERB founders Nice Peter and Epic Lloyd (as well as 3rd member Zach Sherwin) are all in the 37(38?) to 40(41?) range.

He didn't influence their employment practices. Tax reform influenced their revenue.

So in other words, Trump directly influenced their employment practices through his tax reform. Therefore, the tax reform broke the ethics law as you have interpreted it. Correct?

Seems like this got lost in the confusion of an active topic, but you did in multiple posts accuse me of calling your "comment" hyperbolic. I did use the term hyperbolic but not toward anything you said. It was quite the opposite actually. Would you like to address what you thought I meant, so I can clarify? I did ask you for clarification earlier when I allegedly "fucked up," and you did (accidentally) clarify, so I feel you deserve that same courtesy from me.

Can you state which comment you made that you concluded I was calling hyperbole on?

Normally I would let it slide, but you did accuse me of "fucking up" when I was unsure of something you said and may have incorrectly interpreted your words, so I can empathize and I want to make sure the air is clear both ways. Can we bring this discussion back? I can see you are involved in other conversation now, but unresolved business... I mean... do we really want that?

If Trump ends up being a monster he will be his own monster he won't be Hitler. Only the future can tell how Trump will be remembered. Honestly its too early.

Also why I hate to play this card republicans were saying the same thing about Obama. I can give you huge detailed lists about how Obama will be a worse monster then Hitler. It's dumb when ether side does it.

Hitler is a singular monster. Trump will never be Hitler.

I wasn't even asking about "them." I asked for citations of liberal CE users because you quoted a CE user and suggested that "we all" did something.

Question: why would you count yourself among those I accused of likening Trump to a fascist? Isn't that a tacit admission on your part that you HAVE done such a thing?


I'm anti-Trump. Were you talking about a more specific group than "anti-Trump"/"liberal"/"progressive" and neglected to clarify the demographic?

Don't ask me to clarify my post now after it's become apparent to you that you fucked up. You counted yourself among those who say Trump is a fascist. Why?

Sounds like you're putting words in his mouth. Reading his posts, he simply responded to "you all" as if you were criticizing all left leaning CEmen

He's the one insisting that I meant the hyperbolic comment absolutely literally. I referenced no specific group because it's just that: hyperbolic. So now I'm asking why he assumed I was talking about him, because it seems like he's on the defensive because of that and I'd like to know why.


I never said that anything you said was hyperbolic. You are not reading correctly.

Do I think Trump is a fascist? I'm not sure, TBD, already said your cited public figures don't speak for me (this is the 4th time I think) so do I count myself as them or are you extrapolating, considering I myself did not use the word fascist before you did just now, claimed only to be anti-Trump?

Basically, what you are doing is saying "random well known(?) people on the left said Trump is Hitler. They are anti-Trump. If you are anti-Trump, you agree with and share their sentiments and are just as accountable for their words as they are because I've labeled you the same as I've labeled them... so now, because their words are now also your words, I expect you to try and back them up or admit that you personally were in the wrong for me having attributed their words to you which is your fault for being against the person they are against."

Or you can not be an insufferable literalist and admit that yeah Trump isn't nearly as bad as they all said he would be.


I wasn't even asking about "them." I asked for citations of liberal CE users because you quoted a CE user and suggested that "we all" did something. How am I supposed to to interpret "we all" as "random public figures, some of which I have literally never heard of," fella? I'm sorry I can't be as obtuse as you and interpret "show me where we said that" as " show me where random Mexican presidents, Cher, a director of <acronym>, a crackpot and other public figures that you might not even know of or care about." I don't have to admit anything.

Those people do not speak for me and have not ever spoken for me. If Glenn Beck said "Trump has literally murdered several septillion human beings with his penis," I do not provide any validation that it's not true nor am I obligated to, as I have not ever claimed to buy into what Glenn Beck has to say. The only admission I have any responsibility whatsoever to offer is this: "I do not believe that Donald Trump is any worse than I believe him to be, and I am not making any claims about him that I am not making."

No other human being speaks for me without my permission or acknowledgement. Had I ever said "if Cher claims Trump is as bad as Hitler, I agree with her," then yes, I would admit that I agreed to something I should not have agreed with and I would explain why I did and that I was wrong to... but I have not put myself in that position. If I had, and you could prove it, I would give you the validation that you want, but I haven't because I've never believed Trump to be as bad as Hitler because that's just hyperbolic.

If you had provided the actual citations I asked for instead of tangential stuff that random "high profile" people had said, maybe you would have examples of people within the demographic (CE users) that I asked about, that YOU referenced with your perception of the post of the person you quoted, using such rhetoric, I would respond as I would respond, admitting to agreeing or disagreeing with any provided statements.

I ordered a pepperoni pizza and now you're calling me a literalist because I'm not satisfied with the pineapple pizza you erroneously delivered.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2016/09/13/dont-compare-donald-trump-to-adolf-hitler-it-belittles- hitler/


You said "we all"

How does that cite anything "we all" do?

It's starting to get annoying how "you all" will take all statements in the most literal possible sense in order to win points in an argument; points nobody cares about because the principle remains. Trump was widely regarded as Hitler by many left-leaning public figures, and it's pretty embarrassing for them (and you, presumably, since you're defending them) that Trump is actually unlike Hitler in more ways than Hillary Clinton (the candidate they supported) is.


I don't care what a small handful of of random people think. They don't speak for me, nor do they speak for any group I associate with. I don't support Hillary Clinton and I'm a registered Independent.

I don't care how many arbitrary points I earn while arguing or how those points are distributed or who decides how many I earn for each thing I say, so I agree with you about "points nobody cares about." What? Is an argument a competition? Am I arguing in the hopes I have a good enough record to make the argument playoffs? No. That's asinine.

I take you all/we all/everyone literally, yeah... when people are foolish enough to assume I'm spoken for by others or other groups just because I happen to agree or disagree with a specific premise.

I'm not defending "them." Who even are they? Cher? A Mexican president? Glenn Beck (lmfao that guy is a fucking tool)? I don't even know what the ADL even is. At least you said presumably. You are capable of learning things. Before, you would have just accused me of defending them without using "presumably" as an escape plan. I do appreciate that and respect you for it.

Basically, what you are doing is saying "random well known(?) people on the left said Trump is Hitler. They are anti-Trump. If you are anti-Trump, you agree with and share their sentiments and are just as accountable for their words as they are because I've labeled you the same as I've labeled them... so now, because their words are now also your words, I expect you to try and back them up or admit that you personally were in the wrong for me having attributed their words to you which is your fault for being against the person they are against." That is not any form of logic. It's... I don't even know... Psychologically unhealthy.

Hitler was pretty evil. I don't think Trump even comes close to that guy (although he is pretty stupid at times, I have to say).

This is "Trump may have been racist, but at least he wasn't Hitler" : the topic


You know he's a piece of shit when you have shills like Mal actually make topics to try to prove he's not exactly the same as Hitler. That should tell you something.

"I know we all called him Hitler a year ago and he hasn't done anything even remotely similar to Hitler's atrocities, but come on pointing out that we were miserably wrong just reeks of desperation"


Who called him Hitler? Citation needed.

demonizing the free press that criticizes your dear leader is taken out of "Dictator / Tyrant 101" handbook.

Even when the "free press" (read: press owned and operated by people who are Democrat shills) is engaged in a campaign of lies to attack their political opponents? It's wrong to demonize them for that?

I hate the cherry. Strawberry are okay. Lemon are my favorite, then Orange.

I disagree with trump in regard to taste in starburst candy. I am a liberal, or progressive. I do not feel that trump's taste in starburst candy, which I disagree with, is indicative of racism in any way, shape or form. @Mal_Fet

Cherry is best, heathen.


I like actual cherries, but cherry flavor I can't stand. Same with grape. Actual grapes, good. Grape juice, not my favorite, but will drink. Grape flavored stuff? Nope. (Edit: wine is also in the inclusion list for grape)

I'm glad that you are acknowledging and appreciating that I'm not accusing trump of racism simply because I disagree with him on something.

A holiday that no one celebrates isn't a holiday. It's a fake holiday to appease a certain demographic


Just like St. Patrick Day. So what's your point?

But people celebrate st Patrick day. If you don't wear green on this day you get Pinched.

People don't do anything for juneteenth. Its pointless. That's my point. At least st Patrick's day is fun.


I rarely wear green on st Patrick's day. That being said, what's this about pinched?

The people who think President Trump is a racist are the same people who get confused about which bathroom people should use

The only people who don?t realize Trump is a racist are his cultists whose heads are so far up his butt, they couldn?t tell you if it?s day or night


It's day
Not racist

The left has a fundamental misunderstanding of what racism is. They think racism means "something that hurts my feelings"


Literally no one thinks that.

Progressives will use any excuse they possibly can to call someone they disagree with a racist, even certifiably true statements.


This is true. I've never seen feeding frenzies of progressives crying racism quite like the ones that happen in discussions about whether or not pineapple is acceptable/good as a pizza topping...

LOL yeah it's not the people running around calling everyone they disagree with a racist that are abrasive.

So you're admitting that those shithole countries were abusing the Democrat's Diversity Lottery Visa program to send us their criminals and degenerates, and then you're wondering why Trump wants fewer people from those nations?

Someone has reading comprehension difficulties. As stated, ?winning? the diversity lottery only got their application for US citizenship entered. They still have to go thorough rigorous months-long vetting after that point, so no, criminals and degenerates aren?t getting through thanks to the lottery.


But the governments of the countries were specifically only selecting criminals and degenerates to send. Good people, law abiding citizens were denied.

tldr.

He's a racist for the birther shit, the other 99% of the "racist" stuff is xenophobia or nationalism.


Is Hillary Clinton a racist too, given that she started the "birther shit?"


lol "but hillary"

The whole Elian Gonzales thing got the Clintons some flack, so she could be. *shrugs*
