Then just answer the question, people wouldn't have to guess at what you mean.

Like you answered all the questions I asked in the other threads, eh?

Type, or copy and paste, what you didn't understand and I can hand hold you through understanding.

Be specific - I don't have a lot of time for generalities.

I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama

Yet you used a lot of words for "no".

You are like Trump, you flap your gums a lot, but nothing makes sense and you contradict yourself constantly.

Everyone knows that you know what he's asking.

No-one is fooled by your efforts to dodge the question by being a dick about it.

Answer the question or don't - but be aware that if you don't want to answer it you'd look a lot better if you simply refused or said nothing at all, rather than doing what you're doing right now.

Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Entirely untrue and incorrect.

No, we don't. It reads like it was typed with one hand while the other was opening the evening's third bottle of wine. Quite aside from the mispellings, wrong words and grammatical chaos it is simply too vague and too confused to convey what it is that you actually meant.

And lets face it, if we try and reply based on our best interpretation of what you meant and get it wrong, you'd be the first to piss and moan about words being put into your mouth.

So if you want to contribute to the discussion then just explain what you meant. If you don't, then just stop. But again, all this deflecting that you're doing right now fools no-one.

Of course he will! But let's make the effort just for fun:

"I believe more critical thinking about our government, and is status quo, is much more than just needed by you and those that are like minded."

Translation:

"More critical thinking about our government is status quo." Translation - people are always thinking critically about our government; indeed, it is done on-line ad nauseum every day.

". . . is much more than needed by you and by those who are like minded." Translation - you think we need less critical thinking.

"We need to separate business from government as much as we can." - Pretty clear.

"That means dissolving anything tha s socialized." - I am going to go with a missing T and a missing apostrophe.

To paraphrase - Turtle is replying to someone, saying they think there is less critical thinking needed, despite all the endless critical thinking about the government. Turtle wants to dissolve the US highway system, the military, air traffic control, veteran's hospitals, fire departments and police because government and business must be kept separate.

(Smug, belittling reply from Turtle in 3, 2, 1 . . . )

I thought he was going to educate us because we don't comprehend his words.

I believe more critical thinking about our government, and IT'S status quo, is much more than JUST needed by you and those that are like minded.

Translation:

"More critical thinking about our government is status quo." Translation - people are always thinking critically about our government; indeed, it is done on-line ad nauseum every day.

". . . is much more than needed by you and by those who are like minded." Translation - you think we need less critical thinking.

"We need to separate business from government as much as we can." - Pretty clear.
>>>>Agreed and kept in context

"That means dissolving anything tha s socialized." - I am going to go with a missing T and a missing apostrophe.
>>>>Correct

To paraphrase - Turtle is replying to someone, saying they think there is less critical thinking needed, despite all the endless critical thinking about the government. Turtle wants to dissolve the US highway system, the military, air traffic control, veteran's hospitals, fire departments and police because government and business must be kept separate.

No, the paraphrase is incorrect.

Basically, you need to think harder about what is going on within the Republican power structure AND the democratic power structure instead of letting your bias get in the way of your critical thinking abilities.

It was a very short post. Lets just go with 'all of it'. Explain or restate all of it.

That makes no sense. Anyone whose critical thinking abilities exceed those of a turnip is going to be biased against the current incarnation of the GOP and its current standard bearer.

It makes perfect sense, only to those who just believe their critical thinking skills exceed the those of turnips.

So, you just believe your critical thinking skills exceed those of turnips? Seems a low bar to set for yourself, tbh.

So black guy sits during a song and the conservatives get all outraged, but a white NFL player beats up an old man and the conservatives say nothing.

Well, given that he was arrested for it, and fired from the team, perhaps they feel that justice has been served.

Had Kaepernick been arrested and fired, the conservative response would have been similar.

People who live in this country, draw huge benefits of all our wealth and then sit and whine about the flag suffers from mental illnesses if you ask me. Most of them would never have the opportunities here than anywhere else.

Maybe I am not spoiled enough; maybe I have lived in real shitty places in the rest of the world; maybe I just am sick and tired of phonies looking for their 15 seconds of fame.

If you are an American skydiver and one of those flag-burning spoiled kids, you should be banned from all DZ's, IMHO. Go anywhere else in the world and you will see hundredfold of whatever you are complaining about.

Finally, not standing for your national anthem to make a point?!?! Why not streak across the football field in the break instead?

There is still lots of time to learn it..

The First Amendment should never be considered a mental illness.

And what about someone who lives in your country, draws huge, continuing benefits from its wealth and then bitches that the country isn't great anymore?

Someone like Ron, or Trump?
