not just that you *shouldn't* annihilate someone's life with a couple of keystrokes as punishment for being rude to you; if you *can* do this, if this option is available to you, it should trigger some introspection as to where the power in that interaction was actually located
Can you think of a single time in your life when you were persuaded through mockery, belligerence, and condescension?
I’d wager that you can’t.
And yet it’s the strategy many of us adopt in our attempts to persuade others on the most consequential topics of our time.
Why?
There is no such thing as “non-consensual sex.”
That is RAPE.
There is no such thing as “sex with a minor.”
That is RAPE.
There is no suck thing as a “child prostitute.”
That is a RAPE victim.
There is not such thing as a “underage woman.”
That is a CHILD.
For people coming to this tweet from others who have twisted it: the point is not to excuse the appalling scenes in Washington today, which I’ve already condemned. The point is to say that violence, lawlessness, destruction has to be categorically rejected, period.
I don’t know how to say this because I’m so frustrated: A lot of voices on the left were talking romantically for months, all damn summer, about the righteous virtues of property destruction and “mostly peaceful protest.” This was playing with fire.
A long form debate with a neutral moderator.
No fake audience reactions.
No biased questions.
Neutral camera positions.
No sound bite length responses.
Just their respective policies explained to us.
Please @realDonaldTrump and @JoeBiden make it happen. #debate#joerogandebate
On my podcast with @joerogan he offered to moderate a debate between @JoeBiden and @realDonaldTrump It would be four hours with no live audience. Just the two candidates, cameras, and their vision of how to move this country forward. Who wants this? #debates#Election2020
@Fortythievez No hostility intended at all, just trying to respectfully push back on what seem to me like distortions. We definitely should catch up! Hope you're doing well also.
Kudos to whoever made this. The brilliance of finding the perfect song for each fall was outstanding. I laughed so hard at 1:00 and then at 1:33. Thank you for making this. https://t.co/CevrZT0rOv
In this episode of the podcast @chriskresser breaks down all the things incorrect or deceptive in the documentary “the game changers.” SPOILER ALERT: it’s a lot. Almost everything, in fact.
