Twitter is like a global pub where some people “solve the world’s problems” and others get into drunken bar fights.
All result in an empty sense of accomplishment
@pensandpoison@DavidDeutschOxf Here is a list of actual debates scholars had during the time of the Greeks and Romans:
- how many angels can fit onto the head of a pin?
- does the sun go out at night?
- is semen made in the brain?
- where is the soul located?
- do women have fewer teeth than men
And on and on
@AlecLace@RonFilipkowski Such a weird take…
This line of reasoning is ruining our world.
You are suggesting we ignore lies now because lies have been ignored in the past?
🙄
@soloman_kane@mattyglesias The response by authorities was not scripted.
Just like Jordan’s Bull’s game plans were scripted, Park’s approach was scripted.
@cnC4MylesnMyles@mattyglesias If we are “just asking questions,” why does it matter how long she had to wait for blatant racism to show its face?
Does it somehow make the law less racist if it took a week 🤔
@Charlaprivilege@mattyglesias I assume our current government must make you furious if lies fire you up this much!
I was not “lied” to when I went o school in the early 90s, and I never “lied” when I taught thousands of kids for nearly two decades.
@Rongwrong_@mattyglesias I taught high school American history for 10 years.
I taught this in my class.
Not once did I tell my students that the Rosa Parks bus boycott was organic.
Furthermore, it doesn’t make her demonstration any less heroic!
@SahilBloom You are either a bot or someone who is disappointed in their score on an IQ test.
There are a lot more successful people with high IQs and just enough courage to take a few mitigated risks, then highly courageous people with average or below IQ.
Enjoy your bankruptcies!
@charlesmurray These uber rich have access to streams of money (how many can borrow at 1%?)
No one needs access to over $100 billion to create companies which result in common good.
If we are being honest, consolidation of wealth only encourages monopolies and less competition.
@gmiller@JillFilipovic Odd response Geoffrey
It almost sounds like you agree with the Heritage’s premise?
Truthfully, I have not read the article, but subservience cannot be the best solution.
Prevent collapse by controlling women to have many children is an oppressive take 🤔
@charlesmurray I believe you are missing an important point. All of those billionaires can give significantly more away and still remain richer than nearly every king of the past.
Each of these men can both create companies that benefit society AND be greedy
They should be more like MacKenzie
@HealthRanger 1. Calling anyone a dumb ass will never help your position.
2. For someone claiming to have a 150 IQ, you quite atrocious at building an argument. The vast majority of LLMs trained on copyrighted material they did not pay for. That is the crux of the issue.
150 IQ…🙄😂
@trussliz@Bencjacobs@realDonaldTrump It’s crazy how you are so willing to throw the little credibility you have by saying something so ridiculous.
What are you gaining by this stunt?
“Right about everything”
Everything!?
I wouldn’t say this about a single human on the planet, let alone the world’s foremost liar
@gmiller@avidseries How can either party claim each of those past candidates?
The current Republican Party would call each R candidate a bunch of RINOs.
Same can be said for Clinton when compared to modern Ds.
The two parties today are jokes. It’s nearly impossible to define their positions.
