Logic for why he shouldn't be impeached: Trump has taken a hard stand against China. If he's impeached, then the Chinese will just sit on the trade wa...

Did you know that if you poop on your chopsticks before you dig into to the cat food, it sort hides the rotten taste?

Worse. He was responsible for Syria's implosion and he knows it. He was still a good man.

You're entitled to your opinion.
October 03, 2019 at 18:18
This is 1000% correct. But imagine having a leader who you know is a fundamentally good person. I had that: Barack Obama. There's nothing like it. It'...

Unity vs. Disunity. Two sides of the same coin. It's here that the mystic realizes she's on the boundary of mind: where it can go no further. And so t...

Too aggressive. You're headed back toward the stone age.

I'll have to go with Barticks the Banana-head on this one. Experiencer and experience are two sides of the same coin. They imply one another. You can'...

But also the character of society, right? In a theocracy, Trump would be a bishop (if possible). In a military state, he'd be a warlord. He's in the U...

True, but he's also put women in significant roles of authority even 30 years ago when it wasn't so popular. His philosophy was that you get more for ...

I don't think the impeachment inquiry is going to focus on Mueller's report. It's going to be a narrow look at the attempt to use executive power for ...

I was going to say something close to this, but thought I should defend my view for a change. Plus the UNC professor and all the others like him. They...

Economic conditions in the South coupled with an establishment that fought vigorously to avoid reform left the white population psychologically vulner...

Yes. Yet Jim Crow only existed in the south. There is racism that leads to violent segregation and racism that doesn't. Maybe because there are other ...

Cattle farming is immoral. How could you not realize that?

There are a lot of people who are going to vote for Trump. They're not lunatics. They just think that overall, he's done a good job. They especially l...

Back off, or I'll sick the deep state on you. The NSA is watching your bathroom as we speak.
October 02, 2019 at 16:07
Ok. But I think you would agree that the majority of Trump supporters are a little more sensible than that. But maybe I just get your answer first. Do...

I'm glad you're in a good mood. You're still obtuse.

Increased storm volatility is the forecast for this century. Further out: it depends on how much more CO2 and methane is emitted.
October 02, 2019 at 15:11
It's been commented on repeatedly. Michael knows. It was that one pre-recorded post I objected to. Per usual, you're maximally obtuse.
October 02, 2019 at 15:09
Ok. I just don't like people being taken in by a troller. Can you at least change his status to "suspected troll"?
October 02, 2019 at 14:56
@"Baden" I think the above is spam that shouldn't be allowed.
October 02, 2019 at 14:32
It's all about paranoia, then. The clouds are full of static paranoia looking to be expressed somehow. Trump wants to be a lightning rod.

The American head bites it's own neck in half. Ahhhhhhh!
October 02, 2019 at 14:05
Many American leaders consult their guts, but not like that. I recently saw The Thing. You're not helping my sanity by bring up head/intestines.
October 02, 2019 at 13:55
Oh. They're playing to militia-types. "It's a Soviet takeover! Just like in 1955!" Do you think this will work for or against Trump?
October 02, 2019 at 13:53
Or he's just losing his mind. He's not an evil genius.

If Christians want to worship statues of Micky Mouse, the First Amendment guarantees their right to do so. How is it a problem for you?

In the coming millennia, humanity, which came into existence out of a multitude of different hominins, will fragment. Homo technologica, powered by fu...

A Chinese friend tells me there was never any chance of that. Do you disagree?

I thought you were democracy-boy. What about rule of law?
October 01, 2019 at 17:56
That statement is standard mysticism, really. It's funny that out of it comes interpretations that reflect individual personalities. :strong:

Who here has a vote that matters? Who's in a swing state? (I am, btw).

If you wanted to be in keeping with the thread title, yes.
September 30, 2019 at 18:15
The present vein of discussion started with an emotional message from Maw about the cuteness of the OP's strategy. From there, we left off from the to...

Thread title versus discussion

I think the lesson here is that it only takes one emotion-injector to deflect logic. Emotion always wins.
September 30, 2019 at 16:13
I think a lot of Americans would say that the benefits of Trump as a president outweigh his faults and lawlessness. For instance, even if he killed 50...
September 30, 2019 at 13:16
Good question. But could we go back to establishing priorities for a second? In your view, are there times when breaking the law is ok, for instance t...

It depends on what's at stake. If it's a package deal: A. cure the disease, win the war, accomplish the goal, AND criminal activity, or B. failure and...

By getting away with it.

This would be an interesting conversation. I could write out many paragraphs explaining all the reasons that what I said is true. You're not worth it.
September 30, 2019 at 01:25
They can be. Can you give me an argument for why they shouldn't be?
September 30, 2019 at 01:22
Must? No.
