@ryangrim So many people claim this was justified bc they have guns, while they have "pro-2A" in their bio.

This country is fucking embarrassing.
@taylorjharris@HumairaWajahat@ryangrim You mean you'd rather be a slave to "Christians" than let Islamists have Freedom of Speech or the Right to bear arms?
Just got a letter from Social Security saying they're stopping payment of SSDI as of March 2025. No reason given. It just arrived. I last received $900 on 3/3/25, I have a 3mo old son, and I have bills due in a few days.
Fuck you @elonmusk!

That whole "47% of ppl don't pay taxes" BS is based on Federal Income Tax ONLY! It ignores payroll taxes, SS & Medicare taxes (FICA), state income tax, and sales taxes in order to push a bigoted lie.
A whole lot of ppl who repeat this lie are among that 47%.
@Nahanchi7068@internetuserf12 The human body was made to withstand injuries from blunt objects and sharp claws or teeth. So why would anyone put on armor before going into battle? Why wear a bulletproof vest when you can get shot in the face?
Same level of logic.

Imagine: Beer poisoning kills a few thousand.
Gov declares beer to be highly addictive & dangerous. They implement gov database monitoring of sales & restricting access to beer, you are monitored through your DL. DEA put restrictions on sales & commercial production...
@trampas@goldflakecake@ywomendeservles In dealing with trolls, I've noticed plenty of patterns.
1. Extensive use of logical fallacies while,
2. Immediately pointing out the slightest perceived logical fallacy by their opponents -- see "Fallacy fallacy."
3. Claiming "satire" or "comedy"
4. Intellectual laziness
@Baldurdash50@emilykmay I was in a small town managed to find someone when I was older than him. If he's willing to consider women just a couple years older, he can find divorcees/SMs with kids who are 15-16yo & barely at home. The last thing they want to do is hang out w Mom's bf.
@floridaexisted@aodanhill@StatisticUrban The rate of measles and polio sharply declined along with fluoridation (and now they're coming back ๐ฑ). Did Fl control polio, too?
Maybe it was doctors washing their hands? Or Electricity? Or...๐ค maybe dental health improved w indoor plumbing, dental plans, & education?
@abby_cringe_god@aodanhill@StatisticUrban British dental health is actually better than American dental health. They're just less obsessive about having perfect teeth.
@aodanhill@StatisticUrban Most are minor, if you even notice it. But occasionally they can puncture organs. The spurs growing out of my C1 & C4 vertebrae have made my life hell.
@aodanhill@StatisticUrban For one, large parts of the US have naturally high fluoride rates in the soil (mostly the West Coast, Rockies, & Mississippi Valley).
The strongest evidence linking excess fluoride to problems is for the growth of bone spurs, which can cause a number of issues.
@jacobyjim27036@dianapalo@JackPosobiec@PeteHegseth I'll never get ppl who understand that if you break into someone's house, no matter the reason (u wreck ur car & injure urself, phone smashed, no answer at door & u want to call 911), they can defend their home w lethal force. But a Police Officer protecting Congress- Murderer!
@dianapalo@JackPosobiec@PeteHegseth And Ashli Babbit should have complied. Trumpers know all about "castle doctrine" & "standing your ground," yet somehow don't understand how trying to break into a restricted area where the Secret Service is protecting elected officials can get you killed? Are you serious?
@dianapalo@JackPosobiec@PeteHegseth It's not hard, unless you're trying to divert blame for the death of Brian Sicknick & other Capitol officers.
Roseanne Boyland was killed by crowd crush, something that happens at concerts, sporting events, anywhere there's a crowd. It's tragic, but it's not murder.
