@martyrmade@BasedTorba Atheism is simply the absence of one very specific belief. Anyone who purports to add on any other set of beliefs to the label is actually representing something different.
@schotts So how do we change the dynamic? I love this state but fell powerless as it’s being railroaded by those who don’t understand what makes it so great.
One of the most toxic ideas in politics: You shouldn’t criticize your own side because it helps the other side.
That’s how a party devolves into a mess that demands compliance instead of excellence. If you can’t ever criticize, then you can’t fix things that are broken.
@Deplorable_Mi@ZubyMusic The broad brush argument is what bothers me. That certainly applies to some, maybe even most, but it’s definitively not true for all. One doesn’t have to plug that hole in the way you imply.
There has to be recognition that physical capability falls on a distribution curve and SOME women are very fit for combat roles. Just not many/most. In those cases where a fit woman is more fit for service than many men, you still have to account for the dynamics of sexual attraction and how that impacts combat readiness.
This isn’t complicated.
Separate the bills and vote on them individually.
one vote on the clean CR
one vote on the debt limit
one vote on disaster relief
one vote on farm bailouts
Radical right? Individual bills for each issue.
@redheadranting Fundamentally, they were unimpressive , uninspiring candidates. The best run campaign in the world (which it wasn’t) can put enough lipstick on those pigs.
What do you mean "he sees you when you're sleeping"? Is it metaphorical? Because that's a hell of a thing, man. And as far as being "good for goodness' sake," that's a bloody rat's nest. What do you mean by "good"?
Anthony Fauci funded dangerous gain-of-function research in Wuhan that ended up killing 20+ million people worldwide.
That's not a small slip-up.
That's Hitler numbers. Stalin numbers. Mao numbers. Genocide numbers. War crime numbers.
One of the biggest mass deaths & one of the most shameful cover-ups in human history.
Disagree. I believe the Electoral College is what is holding this nation together. Without it, there’s high risk of the Union breaking apart, which would be devastating and incredibly bloody. Maybe I’m wrong but why risk it? Our current system isn’t perfect, but it’s held us together for 250yrs.
