1) I don't know what you are referring to and as such, I will not/have not made a value judgement regarding it. 2a) Again, the fuck is this take? I didn't even use the word "activism" or "activist" so what the fuck is this? Like, explain to me how you think this is a logical response to what I posted. 2b) As for "Protected class", you clearly don't know what that phrase means. Here is a list of what is considered a "protected class" within US law: Race, religion, national origin, age, sex, pregnancy, familial status, disability, and veteran status. You will notice that "President of the United States" is not on that list. 2c) I also did not say that PC people don't care about sports. I said that it is a stretch to take a large crowd of sports fans and just arbitrarily label them as the PC police. 2d) Again, if the whole world thinks that the US is crazy because people bring attention to the shit Trump is doing, don't you think thats on Trump and not the people criticizing him for it? Also, activism largely involves spreading the word and getting information to people so they can make more informed decisions. So yes, getting attention is important. 2e) This is a smokescreen, but the reason is in order to make it more difficult to coordinate testimony. However, the inquiry is moving into its public and phase and that info will come out. Don't worry your pretty little head. 3a) Have you read anything I've said? At all? If you want a response to this, simply read what I've already said to you. 3b) There's so much to respond to within each of these little paragraphs. How do you even? Lightning round: -Even if she is guilty there are cons to the Executive Branch pushing charges. -There was already an investigation into these issues, so it isn't like no one was investigating them. -Intimidation can work even if it isn't legit. A lot of damage can be done through bullshit. That is the whole reason Trump asked Ukraine to publicly announce they were investigating Biden. The result wasn't the important part. -Clinton is still a political opponent, and jailing her can have a boosting effect for Trump and a cooling effect for those who want to go against him. 5) Do you think that an approval rating is the same thing as a TV rating? You do see the ridiculousness in drawing an equivalence here, right? 6) No. Lets read that back: My point: "It doesn't matter what Trump says, he has to act" Your response: "So it doesn't matter what he does" Just, go through those sentences real quick. Let me break it down some more and rephrase: Me: Actions matter You: So what you are saying is that actions don't matter? Like, are you trying to make bad points? You are explicitly implying that I am saying the literal opposite of what I clearly said. |
6) No.
Lets read that back:
My point: "It doesn't matter what Trump says, he has to act"
Your response: "So it doesn't matter what he does"
Just, go through those sentences real quick. Let me break it down some more and rephrase:
Me: Actions matter
You: So what you are saying is that actions don't matter?
Like, are you trying to make bad points? You are explicitly implying that I am saying the literal opposite of what I clearly said.
What you said prior:
"You asked if Trump talking to these chanters would lead to a constructive outcome. I said no, because no one cares about what he says, when 99% of what he says is bullshit. Same with the apology. I don't believe an apology would change anything, unless he acted in kind, in which case, yes, I would accept that apology."
How I replied:
"Your answer was, "no, Trump cannot talk himself out of his actions. He needs to act." So in other words, it doesn't matter what Trump does, he's getting treated like dirt regardless, unless he does exactly what the naysayers tell him to do. Don't the naysayers also believe in democracy? Hmm..."
Doesn't seem like you remember what you've already said, so there's no point in trying to re-explain 1-5 as well.
