  1. Because some people don't have the mental acuity to think and work these things out for themselves, and need to be told what their opinions should be. And that's fine, until they try and legislate it, or push other people to follow those same opinions.
  2. Ahhh - cherry picking translations. The usual then.
  3. Hey Wendy I'm curious. In your opinion, is that because they genuinely don't believe that he could have lost, or that they viewed fox as "their" team and that it should have stood by the lie to try and force the coup?
  4. Can't say the same for that cybertruck horror show
  5. It doesn't. And even if your warped analysis decides it does, who cares. The bible says I can't eat shellfish either but the chowder on my stove smells really good.
  6. Can you not just trim florida off and float it out into the ocean? Seems like you'd get rid of a lot of the crazy.
  7. The bit I don't get is how the GOP have managed to market themselves as the party of the blue collar, traditional, working man American while simultaneously legislating against, ridiculing and mocking people who actually are (or were - AOC as an example). I get why they attract support from all of the worst bigoted groups, that bit is apparent.
  8. The outside US news is full of the bit where Biden made them all look like amateurs with the SS and Medicare trap. It's hilarious to watch.
  9. I remember hearing stories about how good the Buccaneer was and (almost certainly exaggerated) stories about another plane being on a low level run and finding out there was a buccaneer basically underneath them.
  10. Plus, you could do all of that and they could still beat you to death for no reason.
  11. Ahh that old nonsense. People with guns kill other people (and themselves) much more quickly and easily.

    Q

    Thankfully, I don't think its anywhere near 50 per cent that fell for it. Just the extremes of the bigoted, the gullible, and the not so bright.

    Now I have to go look that up and I'm not sure that's a good idea
  14. Greta Thunberg skewering Andrew Tate today, in a roundabout way leading to his arrest for people trafficking has been kind of delicious.
  15. I worked with a guy years ago who had his entire career mapped out in terms of what car he was going to own at what age and stage. I remember thinking even as an early 20 something that was pretty pathetic. A lot of my uni peers got caught in the cycle of "keeping up with the joneses" in London as well. I just don't work that way.
  16. Good. Killing people in the name of "justice" absolutely should NOT be easy. Particularly given the chances of getting it wrong.
  17. Thats always going to be a tough one, but there are loads of situations that are much simpler, where people have mental capacity but such a low quality of life that this can be a much kinder way out. We shouldn't try and solve for every situation from day one.
  18. It's a barbaric, mistake prone process that serves no real purpose other than to "punish" someone to make the victims relatives and bloodthirsty onlookers feel better. It's more expensive than life in prison I believe, It's irreversible and I suspect the wrong people get caught more often than they should. All civilised societies no longer do this..
  19. Considering you predicted a red wave and it was the most successful midterms for an incumbent president in decades, you should probably sit this one out before you embarrass yourself.
  20. Aww bless. It's funny that you think that's the case.
  21. One that splits the vote for 2024 would be just lovely.
  22. particularly when they claim to be "Christian"

    That's nothing - he also claims to have no dog in the political fight and is an independent.

    Nah - Ron may be misguided but at least he has an IQ into 3 figures. This troll, I'm not so sure.
