| Topic | Political Commentators that are better than Stephen Colbert |
| Hexenherz 08/07/17 4:11:39 PM #48 | Not reading this whole topic but Colbert has writers who write his material, so to call him a "political commentator" is a bit of a stretch. |
| Topic | Who will be the Democratic candidate in 2020 |

| Topic | My grandma was telling me about communist Romania earlier today |
| Hexenherz 08/06/17 8:16:28 AM #53 | JE19426 posted... Transcendentia posted...Really? So what would a communist country look like then? Oh god I should have expected the high school junior explanation. |
| Topic | WB confirms Shadow of War WILL have microtransactions |
| Hexenherz 08/06/17 8:15:44 AM #28 | Tmaster148 posted... Unless the microtransactions literally have things you can't unlock without spending money, I don't particularly see the issue. It's a way of exploiting the mentally infirm. |
| Topic | If WW3 started, would it be in poor taste to make video games based on it? |
| Hexenherz 08/06/17 7:48:56 AM #6 | World War 3 will be a video game. And the players will be the soldiers. |
| Topic | ROFL, almost 60% of Americans polled support Transgender Military service. |
| Hexenherz 08/06/17 7:45:27 AM #39 | LordZangetsu_LZ posted... Why are people opposed to it? I don't think you really should have a choice in the matter? People are signing up to fight for your country, and you're not going to support them? That's silly. Basically for much the same reason as why there was opposition to the repeal of DADT. |

| Topic | What is your Religion? |
| Hexenherz 08/06/17 12:04:20 AM #44 | Why is there no "Other" option? Why does this list have Mormon and Christian but not Catholic I'm so confused. |

| Hexenherz 08/05/17 11:52:33 PM #16 | Skye Reynolds posted... Cracked? Is it an old article? If this is new, it's pretty out of character for them. They're usually far enough to the left that they'd give us 6 reasons why we need to stop fearing the communist boogeyman. 2014. But as already pointed out, there's a big difference between socialism/hybrid capitalist-socialist societies and flatout Soviet-style communism. |

| Topic | Realistically how long would have Mulan remained incognito? |
| Hexenherz 08/05/17 11:50:48 PM #8 | There were women who fought in the Revolutionary War as men, and probably in other wars, too, so I guess it wouldn't be too impossible ... but lmao @ that gif. |
| Topic | My grandma was telling me about communist Romania earlier today |
| Hexenherz 08/05/17 11:49:33 PM #12 | Transcendentia posted... some Cracked stuff is interesting ;_; It used to be good, it jumped the shark a few years ago. I think I stopped going there indefinitely after the article titled (paraphrasing) "Why Wikipedia is sexist against women", followed by a four point article where the first two points described how the author discovered Wikipedia and started editing and creating pages there, and the second two points were about how the Wikipedia community hated transgender people because the author of the article was actually transgender. |
| Topic | Christians, do you believe Scientology has ridiculous beliefs? |
| Hexenherz 08/04/17 7:37:19 PM #32 | How often do Christians sign themselves up for living in a church for the purpose of being an indentured servant receiving enough for a few cups of Ramen a week? |

| Topic | Another police body-cam video shows officers planting drugs |
| Hexenherz 08/04/17 12:17:47 PM #12 | Twin3Turbo posted... Wait so this makes 3 against Baltimore that have come out in the past month or two? As far as I know it's the second one to come to light, and this one isn't as clear cut as the other instance because there's far more circumstantial evidence than hard evidence. But... there is a TON of circumstances surrounding it that leave a lot of questions. So far the officers here haven't been suspended but they are under investigation and any criminal cases they're involved in have been postponed. |
| Topic | Another police body-cam video shows officers planting drugs |
| Hexenherz 08/04/17 11:53:54 AM #4 | This one's apparently from November; I wonder why it took so long for it to come to light. |
| Topic | Christians, do you believe Scientology has ridiculous beliefs? |
| Hexenherz 08/04/17 11:15:32 AM #29 | Is it? Is it not ridiculous to spend tens of thousands of dollars for something that you are never even given a chance to fully understand? In addition to signing a contract for a billion years of service and a 30 dollar a week salary? |
| Topic | I wonder why is spanking not illegal in every country |
| Hexenherz 08/04/17 11:13:29 AM #38 | BalloonBattle05 posted... Hexenherz posted...Dude, there are countries where beheadings because you said something bad about the "president" are still legal. Do you expect countries that make it legal to beat your wife, or execute capital punishment for someone who stole a banana from a market, or where you can't say "I don't like our prime minister" are going to ban something like child spanking? |

| Hexenherz 08/03/17 7:53:02 PM #6 | I don't get why it's a white family and then there's a black car that they drive by and the black people are laughing but I don't think physically the black people could have heard them. What does this have to do about cars. What the hell. |

Tezlok posted...Mike_Stanton posted...You know guys, stuff about aliens is actually more plausible than a guy ON EARTH having magical powers. Think about it. But a lot of world religions, even some that had no connection at all to modern society until the 20th century, have beliefs similar to this. In response to your follow on clarification of the question - the point is that the majority of Scientologists just believe in what amounts to paid motiviational / self-help programs. |

You're simplifying it far too much. Christianity isn't a 100% pure religion which was formed out of an independent mythology and which developed exclusively through a singular teaching. Scientology is the complete opposite. |

Hexenherz posted...Smashingpmkns posted...If Scientology was created back when Christianity was, and vice versa, then Scientology would probably be the more respected religion. How many "21st century religions" can you even name? How much of Christianity and its traditions are even historically Christian? It's not how the religion developed and as has already been pointed out a few times in the topic it wasn't devised and propagated by any one individual in the span of a couple years. |

| Hexenherz 08/02/17 10:08:35 PM #10 | frozenshock posted... Scientology isn't really about "beliefs" This is also a very good point. 99% of Scientologists had no idea what the underlying concepts or dogma of Scientology actually were until people started breaking out of the "church" and releasing information under threat of relentless harassment and lawsuit. |

| Hexenherz 08/02/17 10:06:37 PM #7 | Smashingpmkns posted... If Scientology was created back when Christianity was, and vice versa, then Scientology would probably be the more respected religion. There's a lot of reasons why Scientology technically and philosophically could not have been created two thousand years ago. I'm not Christian but I believe that Christianity would still be considered to be a more serious and dignified religious institution if it had arisen in the mid 20th century, predominantly since most Christian churches aren't straight up cults. |

| Topic | Anyone check out the Netflix MST3K revival yet? |
| Hexenherz 07/31/17 12:28:22 PM #1 | I have a morbid curiosity about it. Netflix tends to ruin a lot of things it touches in my opinion, so I'm a little disheartened to see this being a thing. |

Most of any president's mistakes are spread out over the span of their presidency... Not saturated throughout the presidency from day one. |
| Topic | Liberal russia conspiracy = Conservative birther conspiracy |
| Hexenherz 07/30/17 11:44:51 AM #9 | PS: it's also a reflection of your poor understanding of domestic politics even. If 98 Senators and 419 Representatives come together on an issue, it's certainly not a "liberal" issue. |
| Topic | Liberal russia conspiracy = Conservative birther conspiracy |
| Hexenherz 07/30/17 11:42:35 AM #7 | Damn_Underscore posted... are they aware of this at all? It is not the same thing at all and your belief in this reflects just how little you understand of greater geopolitical issues abroad. |
| Topic | Only people who are mentally fit should be in the military. |
| Hexenherz 07/30/17 7:44:03 AM #15 | Dragonblade01 posted... To be fair, veteran suicide rates are largely due to the fact that America has had a habit of pretending that the reward for military service should be the opportunity to serve the country and nothing more. I think a lot of them are actually just due to the same factors that drive suicide rates in the civilian world. A study a few years ago showed that the majority of service members who committed suicide had never been to a combat zone, and many hadn't even been on a deployment. It also affects people who have been in for less than one full enlistment. So I mean, evidence supports the idea that it really is pre-existing underlying mental conditions and alcohol abuse that contributes to the suicide rate, not necessarily the unique challenges taht come from being in the military. |

| Topic | *Goes to foreign, exotic country* *eats at Mcdonalds there* |
| Hexenherz 07/30/17 7:29:09 AM #62 | Don't know if someone already said this, but two things: 1 - Things that are abundant in the US are still greatly different in other countries. For instance, McDonald's in another country might taste better or worse because of the quality of the meat, and they might have different things on the menu. It's just like how someone might drink Coca-Cola in another country even though they have their own sodas - yeah it's fun to try out those sodas, but it's also great to see how Coke with real sugar tastes (I know, they've brought back "Mexican Coke" a few years ago, but still). also 2 - You're on vacation, you've eaten out for a few days in a row for lunch and dinner, the food's kind of expensive and you've been trying new things out the whole time. Sometimes you just want to not spend a ton of money and just eat something you're a little more familiar with to let your palette reset. Those two points being said, I don't understand the people who go to another country and only exclusively eat fast food. |

| Topic | Why are minorities in the US more progressive than the white majority? |
| Hexenherz 07/30/17 12:08:24 AM #3 | Homosexuality has traditionally been frowned upon in the black community as well :\ I don't know if that's shifting at all but it was pretty heavily hated on in music in the 90s and early 2000s. |
| Topic | Have you ever CALLED 9-1-1 (The Police) before?? |
| Hexenherz 07/30/17 12:07:13 AM #4 | I called twice. Once was after I got rear ended. The police came and drafted a report. Paramedics came and checked out the lady who hit me and then they left without checking me out... Second time, I called because this guy was driving about 20 MPH on the highway swerving between lanes and erratically using his turn signals. They switched me over to highway patrol, I started explaining everything and they hung up on me. |
| Topic | Arkham Origins was a good game. |
| Hexenherz 07/29/17 11:27:54 PM #9 | I thought Arkham Knight was the weakest. Too much reliance on boring Batmobile mechanics, they got rid of a lot of the stealth puzzle rooms, etc. |
