2020 US Election (Part Two)

[Estebonrober]

How nice of you both declare, in colourful ways, any weight and validity to your posts and the views presented therein, to be effectively irrelevant. Thank-you both for the honesty, and for doing that job for me. Now I can focus on sober and meaningful posts.

only in your mind

I have a different view of the relationship between cops and prosecutors than you do.

That's okay. I'm not really opposed to law. When I am my opposition tends to land on the lawmakers and the people who keep them in office. I'm extremely opposed to people who color themselves as the heroic enforcers of law and then proceed lawlessly...for them, sure I don't cry when their buildings get blown up.

Does the relevance of your posts - which have gotten really stuck in a wrongheaded and erroneous rut in the road, and then childish nattering at me when I try to push you out, even if somewhat roughly - matter to me outside of my head. And I think you're highly overvaluing the relevance of your quotes because you refuse to see, accept, or even believe possible, the greatest errors and flaws - crippling flaws - in your rhetoric.

O.M.G. WTH even is that post?!? 37 quotes!?! TLDR.

I get to feeling bad about my relationship w the internet sometimes. Guys like Patine make me feel a little better about myself.

But they might be kinda like a 300lb dude thinking he's not doing too bad cause over there is a 500lb dude

I'm not sure, but this may be a new peak of surreal: Trump supporters gathered outside Walter Reed showing their support by not wearing masks and breathing all over each other. It really is like a Jim Jones thing with these people.

There maybe should be a rule against quoting stuff that was posted while you were banned. It would let folks come back fresh and move on... I mean most folks just do that automatically but some just don't have what it takes to be able to do that.

My statement on you and @Estebonrober is further vindicated. Keep up the good work of destroying your own credibility.

I missed this, I really did. wb Patine!


I'm not too concerned about my "credibility" on the gaming forum. I come here to learn and rant. It serves its purpose.

I find something in, without any sense of irony, declaring Republicans “fascists” and then condemning other posters for going overboard on language.

Or maybe I don’t. Either way, it’s an electronic distraction from all of my unelectronic real-life things.

What statement?

 

[Timsup2nothin]

So people paid $250,000 and had to be covid tested for Trump's protection so that they could rub shoulders with him Thursday at a fund raiser where he deliberately exposed them to covid.

You see, the thing is, that "Fascist," and "Nazi," have just become, notably among a certain cabal of OT posters, used in the same way as, "Counter-Revolutionary," during the French Reign of Terror, "Anti-Social," by Lenin in early Bolshevik Russia, "Anharmonious," in Maoist China, "Un-American," by the HUAC and McCarthy during the Red Scare, "Coup Supporter," for a while several years ago by Erodogan, and other such politicized slander, defamation, and character assassination terms as those, not in they're proper definitions.

O.M.G. WTH even is that post?!? 37 quotes!?! TLDR.

I simply ignored everything but the part where I was quoted and don't have much to add to it that hasn't been said already on the subject.

 

[Timsup2nothin]

Covid test, required for protection of the president: 37 dollars
Flight to New Jersey by private jet: 2,472 dollars
Ticket to dinner and photo op: 250,000 dollars
Being intentionally exposed to covid by Donald Trump: PRICELESS

You taking pride in apathy, like @Sommerswerd and @Estebonrober, doesn't give you the higher ground you seem to think you deserve. It makes you all look shallow and pretentious. And probably completely unable to see that, as well as all your other flaws and mistakes, as well.

I know, everyone I tagged and responded to far prefer to run others and their points of view into the mud - whether fairly or not - than have their viewpoints, which they expect to treated as sacrosanct and always correct, and built up through whirlwind circles of thoughtless, hive-mind "likes," to ever be called out for the tragic flaws and wrongheadedness they are rich in.

/found a Patine in the wild.

Fwiw I'm pretty sure no two people here agree on everything. The fact so many of us agree on the state of the US political reality right now is probably because the themes are pretty universal.

Ffs you have a group of people running the US who openly espouse racehorse theory and are being cheered on by 40% of the population. That stuff is the foundation of arguments for lebensbraum type national projects and with the worst depression possibly hanging over the world like a sword of damocles I'm concerned and so are a lot of others. but never mind the reality of it go on beating your horse about technical differences.

 

[Phrossack]

One has to wonder why someone who does literally nothing here but accuse and scold others, all day, every day, keeps coming back. Sadism? Masochism? A simple desire to worsen the experience of CFC for everyone? Whatever the reason is, it sure isn't for enjoyment of the community.
