A knife has many uses. A knife can't kill a dozen people in a matter of minutes (unless they're REALLY good with a knife). You see someone attacking people with a knife, you can run. Guns have a very limited purpose - hunting, killing and providing defense against being killed. If someone's...

Never underestimate the power of fake internet points. Did my comment get more likes than theirs? I WIN!!!! I am so smart! SMRT! I think part of it is the same reason this forum exists in the first place. I have a few close friends/family I can discuss politics with but we're mostly on the same...

Saw an interesting take on this from Aiden Walker, via Tizzyent (I have no idea who Aiden is) What it boils down to is that we have a generation of people that feel like they're going to be alone forever and the world is just going to get worse. Tyler James Robinson spent most of his life...

This is why America only has two political parties. We have a few more options in Canada, but we're still basically stuck deciding between what condiment we want on our shit sandwich. I would disagree on the Hollywood LGBT representation thing. Hollywood is a business. 20-30 years ago, LGBT...

Sadly, yes I think so. I've been online since 1994 or so. I've had phases where I would debate people a bunch. I can't recall any situations where minds were changed. You're lucky if insults can be avoided and it ends with "guess we'll have to agree to disagree". If anything, the biggest...

Has ANYONE here every said "You know what, you're right and I was wrong."? Makes a person wonder why any of us, myself included, post anything to do with politics or religion. Boredom, I guess. And to see who we vibe with. Only times I've seen people change their mind on stuff like this is...

A lighter, in case they're a mummy or Frankenstein monster. A silver knife in case they're a werewolf. Pretty sure a knife will work. I'm not much of a gun guy. I don't bring anything to protect me from vampires cause I'm hoping they'll make me one of them.

No need to change your mind. Social media has ruined us. Everyone's an expert now because they saw a 30 second clip that "felt true" when they were doom-scrolling. It's only going to get worse with AI.

How exactly is Jan 6 random or irrelevant? BTW, at no point have I condoned any riots or protests. You're simply putting me into the "people I don't agree with" box and assuming what I think. I would love to debate more but we're unfortunately on uneven footing. We both post stuff each other...

Jan 6.

She wasn't wrong. Here's a collection of responses from Right wing folks before ANYTHING was known. They were blaming the Left immediately and calling for war.

Wrong place, wrong time. According to the article, he said this when all they knew was that a gun had been fired at the event. There was no report of injury or death. If they had waited 10 minutes before jumping on the story, things would be different. The blame should lie with the people...

This is what he got fired for. ...when asked by anchor Katy Tur about “the environment in which a shooting like this happens,” Dowd responded with the following about Kirk: “He’s been one of the most divisive, especially divisive younger figures in this, who is constantly sort of pushing this...

This is a bit of a long one, but I feel it does a good job of portraying most pro-lifers. “The Unborn” are a convenient group of people to advocate for. They never make demands of you; they are morally uncomplicated, unlike the incarcerated, addicted, or the chronically poor. They don’t resent...
