If you want to wear a MAGA hat then do it. I'm left leaning libertarian according to the political compass quiz and I really see no need to say that "wearing a maga hat is asking for trouble"

what is bess kalb

Nuclear weapons are supposedly real, but I get that you are referring to personal sized nuke launchers.

like anyone who obsessively replies to his tweets with a verified checkmark

i guess people do pay attention to them

it seems to me to just be another troll on the internet

wait, did Tim reference this?

haha

glorious

i should be surprised

gotta laugh

defending an idea is not necessarily defending all that it may entail imo

for example claiming we should respect each other

there are limitations

same as free speech i suppose

although i do defend the right of someone to say what they feel no matter what

i just don't necessarily defend their opinion i suppose, so nevermind

i might actually

it depends on what is going on in the religion, or what they consider to be

for example, Muhammed supposedly had married a wife that was not even a preteen when he was around 50

and many muslims defend that

yeah i just think that you can't paint a broad swath over all religion being equal or free

there are cults and nasty ones

there could be a religion that is literally made to be satanic or evil to a cartoonish degree

so they can preach and defend it but it's okay as long as they aren't proven to copy it?

golly

i agree with your principle

but then we would be justified in watching people who identify with crazy ideas like that

ergo, we are justified in spying on all muslims if they say they worship a pedophilic warmonger

yeah

but there is a downside

I'd base it on what I'd be okay with being punished on

That is, if I suddenly decided to rape a child and force them to marry me, and guide an entire culture and religion to worship me

i'd also expect a very harsh punishment

against me?

is there some sense of self preservation in our ethics and logic?

i thought it was all about the greater good

as in democrats?

right

so, social justice warriors gone fascist

it's hard covering stories where i'm basically not allowed to have an opinion

i envy tim for that

right.

"people of color" is the most blatant anti-white bullshit

they may as well say "non-white"

fucking psychos

Rye when's the last time you saw a college's PR

I'm a journalist at one right now and I realized how bad it was when I had to cover my college's club organization

since they handle all events

they have events every month that are basically SJW recruitment/brainwashing

it's so bad

it doesn't matter

listen

I'm not sure what to do

I was able to track the college president's facebook

by their own lack of awareness, they left many posts public

they also happened to like and post many anti-white things

such as

"I wish these white people would not show up to our event"

it was an event about sharing black culture and history

this person became our school student president

I told my boss and he said "we don't wanna seem like 'poor whitey'"

and he told me to drop it

i was shocked but backed down because i want to have this job on my resume and move on with my life to a career

okay?

are you drunk?

what do you mean then

you just represented two extremes in a span of 10 seconds

that would have helped

to see that photo instead

anyway I joined here because I like Tim who is a leftist that is reasonable with the right...

I thought I was far left 10 years ago, then I realized what happened after Obama and suddenly see my old party as batshit

I'm in Washington State, PNW

but, I still think the Right is idiotic when it comes to taxes and the vastly wealthy

however, the reason I think Trump will win a second term is because the current left is unable to deal with their neurosis about SJWism

I laughed when he got elected and I'll laugh again

Basically I just don't care about the vastly rich.

That's a main part that makes me Leftist

I think they could lose a big portion of their money and be fine.

I disagree, of course

However

I do think it's a big problem how most people think that money be spent

Frankly this is how I see my political views: I'm libertarian socially (for people's rights); and I'm frankly authoritarian when it comes to business and capitalism because of the absurd imbalance of wealth

Honestly I am in favor of forcing businesses who have created an empire of wealth in our country, forcing them to stay and keep paying in to the country that made them

That seems like common sense

Then we can expect the tax to balance out and expect them to not ruin us based on a 3% tax increase

If these patriots would leave America because we want to raise taxes on them, they may as well be hung

That would surely solve all our problems

You're welcome

hello

oh hello

how are you

finally, a friend

i'm so lonely

😢

I am currently wearing a black beanie

but i didn't realize i was co-opting tim

until now
