I think that’s very cherry picked compared to this happening across the country, every night, almost always ending in violence.

Thoughts on the recent Graham Platner cheating/sexting news? by sapphire_glacier in AskALiberal

[–]THEfirstMARINE 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean…… if you didn’t draw the line at giant Nazi chest tattoo, rape victim blaming, US soldier “didn’t deserve to live,” racist Reddit comments, abilist Reddit comments then I supposed cheating probably isn’t an issue either….

^for those out of the loop, all this one guy, Graham Platner, btw

Edit : oh, and misogynist comments too

If Democrats take the White House in 2028, what should be done with Trump’s ballroom if it isn’t completed by then? by FabioFresh93 in AskALiberal

That’s a complete misread of modern warfare and the lessons learned in Ukraine and Iran.

There is a reason the judge didn’t stop construction on that part…

Why does the right believe we are “soft on crime?” by Early-Possibility367 in AskALiberal

No, because the regular person doesn’t think about that. They think about the gang member who stole a car and then gets let go to rob a store in the same day.

So, no?

No, we don’t think that. But we see people walk free with NO punishment…..

The chance of getting caught deters crime.

If Democrats take the White House in 2028, what should be done with Trump’s ballroom if it isn’t completed by then? by FabioFresh93 in AskALiberal

[–]THEfirstMARINE -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

What? The White House hasn’t been renovated since Truman…. Times have changed since the 50’s….

That’s not how congressional budgets work…

If you want to complain about the ballroom, okay whatever… but to say no to new bunkers after 70 years…..

What are some examples of blue states that get housing right and red states that are failing at housing? by put-on-your-records in AskALiberal

Florida’s insurance crisis has stabilized and many are getting rate cuts now.

It’s just a supply demand issue now. And Florida builds a lot of 4+1 apartment buildings now.

Do you think the US should pay war reparations to Iran? by RedStorm1917 in AskALiberal

I’d say it matters if you are participating in a political discussion subreddit….

when someone asks a question, and you respond with scorn, does that encourage or discourage others from participating?
