Hi! Are you here because I said something you didn't like about the current discourse? Check out this list of 700+ republican creeps!

@agraybee honestly you're just cherrypicking, the mainstream dems and most certainly the right are full of pieces of shit.

Also, why are you putting Tara Reade (biden victim) and Tulsi Gabbard (defected to the republicans) on "the left?"

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@theglove205 @RegularEmperor @TheTweetOfGod which word did you not understand, I'm happy to explain.

THEO VON: then he took my nose. he took it. it was in his hand he showed me

JOE ROGAN: wow. i didn't know you could do that

THEO: yes it was right in his fingers. i swear to god

JOE: wow. wow

THEO: i started freaking out but then he put it back

JOE: oh thank god. thank god

@MarxistLabubu @GWAMtweets But...he didn't do that. He immediately said the charges were serious and credible, like...the second he saw the story. So it's really weird to go "but what if he DID defend him?" like this

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@theglove205 @RegularEmperor @TheTweetOfGod No matter how much you equivocate on normal, the point stands that the presentism charges are thin; slave ownership was not something a naive young society couldn't parse as wrong as per the presentism apologia.

@neeratanden You worked for bill clinton.

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@theglove205 @RegularEmperor @TheTweetOfGod marrying a 14 year old is legal in several US states, is it "normal?"

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@AndrewDrow @TheSalikino the people in the non-rich purple block work for who, andrew?

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@DomainDead Love that for him.

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@theglove205 @RegularEmperor @TheTweetOfGod What does the word normal mean to you? If it's controversial and people are fighting about it harder than they fight over any political issue in modernity and almost nobody does it, but you say it's "normal" what does the word still mean?

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@theglove205 @RegularEmperor @TheTweetOfGod Do you think 51 percent of people owned a slave?
a majority of people didn't do it
a significant plurality of people thought it was wrong
armed conflicts and civil wars were fought over it
Our government was bitterly divided over it.
You're desperate to avoid concession

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@theglove205 @RegularEmperor @TheTweetOfGod Now understand that slavery was more controversial than that. Enslaved human beings and their allies had this tendency to try to free themselves that occasionally made news

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@theglove205 @RegularEmperor @TheTweetOfGod That's simply ahistorical. Legality does not make something not controversial or accepted. Think about modern politics. Abortion is legal in many places. Is it, therefore, non-controversial?

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@TommyBOIss @ThomasJCarcetti Blaming the kicker for missing instead of yourself for being in a 3 point game is a classic cope.

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

the thing that gets me war" is: The DNC doesn't have to do this AT ALL. They could just say nothing & support candidates that ran as dems and won. They're more obsessed with ratfucking to keep their own little fiefdoms than with taking power. They're wasting their window.

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@theglove205 @RegularEmperor @TheTweetOfGod If you look up the history of abolition, you'll find out we took an extra generation to abolish it. There were armed conflicts over it. It was not "normal" at the time, it was quite controversial. The battle hymm of the republic references ARMED REVOLT to free slaves.

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@theglove205 @RegularEmperor @TheTweetOfGod Yes, it is literally the fault of the southern founding fathers in particular that the United states began as a slave nation. Are you serious in asking that question?

[The Bear Apparent @king_baffled]

@PostLeftWatch Guys im starting to think BE just likes infighting or something
