@JC_Christian@dcpetterson “lesser of two evils” is a false dichotomy in politics, a catchy lie amplified by the right to the left as a propaganda tool that discourages voter turnout, promotes civic apathy, reinforces a self-centered approach to voting, and creates the trap of the 3rd party candidate.
@Food36Food@Rainmaker1973@grok lol such an old clip, but yeah: they didn’t stop him, they tackled him well after he dumped the contents, no indication of a weapon on him, and the tackle didn’t clear the risk—it made everyone hunker down in the blast zone. Lolol clearly they weren’t scared.
@MzRell@beyoncegarden Well you’re not describing any situation or concern that has anything to do with either argument. So I’ll leave you and your strawman alone to scream into the void together.
@smallishbrina@ceeyoulaterrr Legit. And same, no idea. But love the position to make it rain in fanfic while curtailing any queerbait. Bc the latter is the worst. This is the way to go.
@MzRell@beyoncegarden You want the government to tread on free speech and take responsibility for raising your children and making the decisions for them? You deserve tyranny.
@Coach_Yac@joe_papi23 Guess his new team better keep this in mind when it comes time to pay him next… so they don’t end up mad at themselves. 😑
What a bummer situation.
@lehansmosh Yep. I’m all in defense of enjoying the ship to an extent (whether you think there’s an element of reality or pure fiction), bc they’ve said and indicated they’re ok with it. But incorporating secondary, real family members is a non-starter. Immediate fun/mood-killer.
Blow: The is a news show on a news channel and I have an ethical responsibility to say you are lying.
Lambert: Do not call me a liar on national TV sir! You are a liar!
Blow: You are liar.
@silveryzen@krimsstix What’s even the difference if for fun or for real? Maybe it is real. Point is they’re fine feeding it, and nobody can say it’s NOT true any more than speculating if it is. So just enjoy what they share. Wild to see a post of a delicious pie and be told HOW DARE YOU ENJOY THAT.
@haymitchodair Meaning, the speculation doesn’t bother them: Amanda has said many times she’s fine with it, and clearly even actively feeds it. Having fun with what they’re willingly share is harmless. Those trying to police and judge and speak for her are actually way more disrespectful.
@haymitchodair Those weirdos have no more business calling them platonic than anyone else thinking the possibility of some kind of open relationship. Who knows. They’ve also never actually denied, so it’s just as rude to shame her if it were so. They’re having fun, we’re just enjoying the ride.
