If your position is "X is bad, and you should do your best to deviate from it" people will always try to find new ways to deviate and get bonus points. Versus "X is good and you should do your best not to deviate" makes it such that you can't really get more X-er than X.
I hope that makes sense

Yeah. That's what I thought you were saying, just wanted to be sure

Now I'm not entirely sure that the progs have gone so far as to say that heterosexuals are bad, giving rise to the "LGBTQIAA+" mess, but the logic seems like it would match

I don't think they need to say heterosexuals are bad. They just need to say bad things are acceptable.

Pedophilia, supporting the likes of Desmond

Puberty blockers.

There will always be some new sexual deviation that they need to "liberate"

I could *try,* but I'd have to start with the worst sin of all- I'd have to **LIE** to you, and worse I'd have to tell you a lie I already know you know is a lie.

*"They love their Handmaid's Tale references as of late."*
¿Are they **STILL** on that shit argument? Take that worlds, replace *'Christian'* with *'Muslim,'* and you have at least a half-dozen real world countries ***RIGHT NOW.*** Not some hypothetical future, right now, today- Up to and including execution of lesbians (an otherwise historical outlier). 😠😤🤬😡

It's not so much the lie that pisses me off... It's the fact that they think we're too stupid to know it's a lie that does. 😤😡😠🤬🤬

I don't think they think it's untrue, thus it wouldn't be a lie

I think they've worked themselves into a frenzy over an ebil Christian patriarchy that won't happen

Willful ignorance of simply verifiable facts is also lying.
And that's not even the extremism... The extremism comes at **"When you don't verify a claim before presenting it as factual based on your supposed professional credentials, you're lying"* (coughcoughShannonWATTScough)...

We're talking about speculation. There aren't simple verifiable facts

Omission is no sin!

Blasphemer!

Because you got caught.

No getting caught.

Just people getting shhhhmmmaaarrtt.

What about her?

Slippery slopes go both directions. That's why both sides fear them because the truth is compromise is a temporary solution

@TheCompanyMan
She's not that smart. In fact, she's not as smart as her degree supposedly says

Well boston college isn't even the best economics school in boston. If that tells you anything

... Huh. I thought her degree was in advertising.
That does explain a few things. But not enough.

Oops she went to boston university, the best economics program in boston

Ok.

She graduated cum laude from Boston University's College of Arts and Sciences in 2011, majoring in international relations and economics

Per wikipedia

It was an econ minor

I minored in pseudocode

BigDaddyTraivs taught me

Probably took marxist econ and a dash of Keynesian.

Haha that's right

UofDiscord is a super reputable school

Cutting edge

I thought it was some kind of fake double major that she had.

That I'm pretty sure she earned on her back.

haha well international relations sounds like some sort of communications derivative, aka a bullshit degree. the econ minor would only require a few more classes, probably like 4 ish. plus two of those econ courses can be used to satisfy general education requirements.

shop around for easy professors, then flirt with the genius incel in class to get him to help you
