How do you do

Hopefully not relating to the virus 😳

Negative in that case my friend

Ah.

Anyways, the rules here didn’t exactly specify

I’m not a trump supporter, I joined to try and get some insight on why some people are as upset as they are

So you feel like you don’t really have a say in national affairs

So you’re for the belief that the voting was tampered with, or votes were added, really anything under that particular umbrella

As most people are in here I would assume

The interesting thing is that most of the people in the U.S want the same thing. Freedom, enough security to be comfortable but not overbearing, a reasonable amount of public service.

Obviously wages sufficient to live on, friends to be with, family.

I’m speaking on the bare bones basics, the direct needs of the people. A strong economy facilitates what I’ve listed (wages, security, freedom)

Anyways, back to the election. I think it’s a pretty big risk, especially so if you’re for the will of the common people, to challenge the integrity of an election. It’s important to consider what it means should you be wrong; you’re potentially stripping the freedoms of millions of other people who votes for their candidate

Which is exactly what’s sparked the outrage on this side of the seesaw from what I can tell

Didn’t that already happen though? I know there were recounts in the key states and even hand counts with non partisan witnesses

I’m fairly sure the point of the discord is networking.

I suppose that depends on what expectations and beliefs you came in here with.

But to keep it simple, I guess it’s a pro-Trump far right Conservative party.

To be clear, I’m a progressive.

Come again? That’s not familiar to me

Alright I know vaguely of that

Yeah, so you’re definitely further to the corner than I am.

As I was saying, generally you aren’t going to find people who share similar opinions at each other’s throats.

So the server is pretty calm.

Most trump supporters are people who are looking for support for the lower classes, oppose elitism, and want to work towards free and fair elections.

And I’m of that opinion as well. But they aren’t, so I stick to common ground.

Makes for more productive conversation.

What dude?

Your profile picture?

Oh

It’s interesting, I’ll give you that

Got a reason for it though?

I thought I came off as pretty open

Sure

There’s a difference between saying and doing though, so be careful

Anyways I’m not your enemy

And you’re not mine

You’re just a dude on the internet who has a different opinion

Or woman for all I know

Fair enough

Why do people wanting there to be multiple genders upset you?

Why is that a bad thing

So?

So it’s not a slight against you. Why can’t the meaning of a word be changed?

Words change all the time, it doesn’t harm you any to run with that here and there.

Forced to say what?

That’s a shame

Ok. So why should I engage in any discussion revolving around morality when you spit on it like that? Or even take any of your arguments seriously?

And by the way, it is in the rules to be civil. Calling someone “it” isn’t civil.

Just relax.

I’m not here to try and cause discourse.

But is it such a bad thing if that changes, Slash?

It was modern to use “thou” at one point in time

Now I think you’ll probably get laughed out of a McDonalds if you tried to order in old English

Even out of respect to the person?

By what law?

It was a rhetorical question. You’re right, there is no law for language.

?

I guess I’ll take that as a compliment.

I assure you, I’m a person. No worries on that end my friend.

You do sort of imply that my responses lack creativity and my thought process is narrow when you say that the way I talk is generated.

Glad we’ve got that resolved

I’m going for an English minor at university, this is just how I speak at this point.

Well

Biology for one has proven that a man can be born with a brain that wishes to be female

And vice versa

Right, I think that’s correct

^

It isn’t everyone of course.

Size doesn’t have any contribution towards chemical changes and gene mutations.

Yeah I didn’t know that

It is, though. There are entire paths in science now that revolve around it.

Ah, be very careful when trying to paint something in just black and white.

It used to be fact, now it’s been evaluated to be more complex.

It’s not

Maybe the gen Ed

Certainly not anything past that

Possibly

Everything is interdisciplinary at a certain point

Ah, take a shot at it man. Nothing to lose, no?

You might read something interesting

Depends on who’s posting

I’ve used Twitter quotes in academic papers

I mean, it is. I got an A.

Damn that woman loves her jellyfish

The problem with those papers is that it’s in another language

Academia

Is not English

That’s not legible to someone who wants to learn about the subject, that’s written expressively for peers in the field

Which I find irritating

Anyways I’ve had a pleasant conversation here, it’s quite late and I gotta sleep at some point

Those are her papers, not the link Suzu originally posted

Which was relevant, the papers were just to establish the biologist as credible

Appreciate it.

Keep an open mind all. And have a nice day or night wherever you may be.
