@lightblight1@AthletesInSpace If "he's old" is a good enough excuse for someone who had access to private chefs and trainers his entire life, then your comment about average working people at Democratic town halls being overweight is worthless.

@lightblight1@AthletesInSpace The current Republican President is an old hag man with a pear-shaped body. He's literally rotting live in front of everyone. Lead by example.
@O__C___D__@brad_polumbo@TheOmniLiberal@BlaireWhite Republicans (reminder, the VICE PRESIDENT was part of this) cannot manufacture the idea that there are hundreds/thousands of Epstein clients in every part of the government, run with this for half a decade, and then act surprised when some people on the left follow through.
@O__C___D__@brad_polumbo@TheOmniLiberal@BlaireWhite Republicans reject rational conversation in favour of conspiracy theories (Pizzagate and Epstein hyperbole) and emotion and inflammation (Trump every single day for the last decade)

@rsb_realslim@trouble_man90@AuwaerterD9040 Because that was the height of a global supply chain shock happening in essentially every country regardless of ideology and this price spike is entirely self-inflicted by the current regime?
Biden left office with higher GDP growth and a lower inflation rate than right now.
@MagaBob8080@trouble_man90@AuwaerterD9040 If the Iran war ends without any changes to Iranian leadership (keeping in mind that the current Ayatollah is even more radical and brutal than his predecessor and will almost certainly crack down even harder), will you consider it a failure?
@Holdtoacc@hutchinson He was radicalised by Trump's constant lies about stolen elections and COVID-19 (he directly mentioned both).
Just to be clear, since you haven't directly answered, do you believe it's okay for Donald Trump to make fun of Paul Pelosi having his skull bashed in with a hammer?
@Holdtoacc@hutchinson Why would either of the two differences you listed make it okay for Donald Trump to make fun of the attack on Pelosi?
Also just quickly, it is not true that Pelosi was a "random event". DePape had a list of prominent Democrats that he wanted to target.
@LuckyKnotai@Majorf_ckingH@adhdrunsme@ZeeToTheHill This isn't a response to anything I said. You should probably take some time away from the internet if you're physically incapable of responding to people's arguments.
Have a lovely day.
@Holdtoacc@hutchinson If the moment "wouldn't be as heavy", then it seems like you *would* be okay with people making fun of Charlie Kirk had he simply been smashed in the head with a hammer, as long as he didn't die?
(If not, please list a meaningful difference as clearly as possible, ty)
@LuckyKnotai@Majorf_ckingH@adhdrunsme@ZeeToTheHill And Obama was called a communist for years. The difference (which you ran away from) is that, like the person above you said, *there is not a single political figure with rhetoric as divisive or inflammatory remotely comparable to Trump*.
@ProfitTakr@agnfalls@ColtonTV@hodgetwins@TheOmniLiberal This isn't even true. The original post was specifically about Donald Trump. Hodgetwins brought it off topic by making vague appeals to 'the left', the next reply brought it back on topic by mentioning Trump, and then you derailed again, also making a vague appeal to 'the left'.
@Holdtoacc@hutchinson What's the relevance of any of this?
If Charlie Kirk had simply been hit in the head with a hammer by 'some crazy guy' (which DePape wasn't, he intentionally targeted Pelosi and others), you'd be all over social media excusing anyone making fun of him? That's obviously not true.
@ProfitTakr@agnfalls@ColtonTV@hodgetwins@TheOmniLiberal The topic was 'political leaders praising authoritarian leaders', not 'praising dipshit foreign leaders' (?) Ridiculous framing.
As far as I'm aware, Biden/Obama/Clinton never praise authoritarian leaders the way that Donald Trump does constantly. Do you disagree?
@ProfitTakr@agnfalls@ColtonTV@hodgetwins@TheOmniLiberal Sure, here's him directly praising Xi Jinping for his ability to rule China with an 'iron fist'. Hard to say it gets more obvious and to-the-point than that.
(Keep in mind that this has happened over and over again with his praise of Xi and Putin)

@RanMah10@crazycoop323@realnikohouse You can debate if it was a justified genocide? Is your position then that genocide isn't necessarily wrong?
We could think of genocides that are not just acceptable, but maybe even moral imperatives?
@ClanPauli@cremieuxrecueil preventing autism by preventing other negative environmental diseases/conditions that could cause/make autism more likely.
- Families of vaccinated kids may make different choices in the raising of kids (food/exercise choices)that may impact the development of autism.

@ClanPauli@cremieuxrecueil Vaccination is negatively correlated with autism =/= vaccination is a direct preventer of autism.
There are plenty of reasons why it might be negatively correlated:
- Vaccination could be a direct preventer.
- Vaccinated kids could be healthier in general, indirectly --
