I just had a realization based on your comment; Their boots are dirty because they are walking through a world of shit. That is a core tenant of Christianity. They get to cop out on trying to make anything better by just saying “oh well, the world is shitty, get believers to make god daddy happy and then die.” That lines up with Trump’s thematic message of America being some over run, crime infested wasteland. It is the hook by which Trump catches the Christians.
Then they bail and leave him for the next drone, or to burn alive… With friends like these, who needs enemies?
What’s next? You going to tell me Alta Vista doesn’t do search anymore?
No, learning sandwiches canals into indifference chismo. Instead pirouette inside astro turf. Realizing really way, like she said.
Both of you can GTFO with your negativity, imo.
a lot of stupid Americans that buy into Trump’s crap.
True. Unarguably.
Counterpoint though: There are a bunch of Americans that do not. I know many. I know Republicans that are voting Harris.
Harris by a landslide. I’m optimistic and am choosing to have faith in at least some of mankind.
Trump is power hungry while simultaneously old and simple minded. I remember Jan 6. I followed live feeds throughout and immediately after. I watched Trump’s speech, the riot it caused. I watched Ashli Babbitt die on some guy’s go pro.
I keep asking myself how in the hell Trump is even still in the running. What the fuck is wrong with his supporters?
Please get out and vote Harris! Harris is the way forward. She’s not Trump but also SHE IS NOT BIDEN. We need women in power. Look what men have done <gestures broadly>. She happens to be a good one, of course a politician, but she’s won my confidence. Over Trump it was an easy win.
What if we had given them an iPad aith CandyCrush that just works
We’ll know the answer in just a few more years here. Whole generation growing up that way currently.
The original joke from the link above:
It is 1939 and a Soviet army is marching on Finland. As they pass the border, they hear a Finnish voice over the hill; “One Finnish soldier is better than 10 Soviet soldiers!”
The Soviet general laughs, as he sends 10 men on the hill to capture it. There is gunfire for a minute and then everything goes silent for a moment, and they then hear the same voice; “One Finnish soldier is better than a hundred of yours!”
Annoyed, the Soviet general sends hundred men to capture the hill. There is gunfire and bombs going for ten minutes, and everything goes silent again. Suddenly, the same voice yells out; “One Finnish soldier is better than thousand of Soviet soldiers!”
Enraged, the general sends a thousand men, accompanied with tanks, artillery, mortar teams, and tells them to not return until the hill is theirs. For half an hour hell breaks loose, bombs and explosions, gunfire, screams and death all around, and then it goes silent again. One Soviet soldier crawls back, severely wounded and battered. Before the general could say anything, the soldier says;
“Do not send more troops, comrade general, it’s a trap! There is two of them.”
I hope they elbowed the person next to them. “Hey, look, look!”
Robinson was making an appearance at the Mayberry truck show in Mount Airy when he was injured…
didn’t immediately respond to texts seeking details on how and where the burns occurred.
My money is on; He burned his lips on a truck tail pipe.
Yes.
The more important question is which religion are you? Because you will agree with me that all the others are crazy AF, but you will still somehow think your religion is not ridiculous.
So, what religion do you believe in?
I said what I meant.
“Next week on Religion is Stupid…”
“I once had to sell an emerald at half it’s market value just so I could afford to pay the maid service at my third home” 🙄
This is the way. It’s a ton off work and often, you have to be willing to be wrong about what you thought you knew going into a subject. Approaching news from multiple perspectives reveals your own biases too.
The perfect news source for me would be a single, trustworthy aggregator that showed me several perspectives on every story, all in the same place. That doesn’t exist though.
