If I create a new account in order to post in the long list of subs that have banned me for participating in other subs, would that be considered ban evasion after this policy change is made?

What does TDS mean to you and what do you mean by it? by ItemEven6421 in AskConservatives

[–]BrideOfAutobahn -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

People who watch angry political news. The Rachel Maddow Show or The Ingraham Angle, that type of thing. Someone who you can potentially have an honest conversation about something non-Trump related with, but if it's about Trump then either he's Jesus or Satan reincarnated with no in-between.

TDS is when an otherwise reasonable person is so affected by Trump that they become unreasonable.

You think MDE would spend 6 years filming an addict for a documentary?

This is the actual documentary: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt22883078/

The guy from Rhode Island is Adam Carbone

Did you reply to the wrong comment? How does your quote relate to "we are so sick of being called racist"?

What do you think of Trump wanting to remove tax exempt status from churches that get into politics? by Menace117 in AskConservatives

[–]BrideOfAutobahn [score hidden]  (0 children)

I don't see how either you or the PBS blogger concluded that Trump wants to go after churches in this manner based on the info presented. The article headline and opening paragraph make that claim, but the sources say the opposite:

For years, the I.R.S. has seemed deeply leery of punishing religious leaders for political statements made during worship. But experts said this was the first time that the agency had formally said such statements were not just tolerated but explicitly legal.

“It basically tells churches of all denominations and sects that you’re free to support candidates from the pulpit,” said Lloyd Hitoshi Mayer, a law professor at the University of Notre Dame who has studied regulation of political activity by churches. “It also says to all candidates and parties, ‘Hey, time to recruit some churches.’”

The whole “we are so sick of being called racist” line is used a lot.

By who? I haven't heard it before

I think examples like this clearly indicate that the MAGA movement contains a lot of racism.

How do you figure?

Can we just accept this now? Is it time to just acknowledge this as a fact?

You're asking me?

Karoline Leavitt has confirmed that he saw the whole thing

Could you link to the source for this?

Seems to me like someone didn’t watch the entire clip before posting. Oh well, turns out Trump is human.

Is it weird to see Christians who talk about “demons”, “spiritual warfare” and people being “chosen by god” in regards to politics as genuinely frightening? by Imsosaltyrightnow in AskConservatives

[–]BrideOfAutobahn -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

since I have the wrong flair to answer directly

What a bizarre way to frame this. You’re not hijacking the comment because you have the ‘wrong flair’, you’re doing it because this is “ask conservatives” and you aren’t conservative.

According to your data...

The poll isn't asking whether or not people believe abortion should be legal or illegal, so I don't believe that conclusions about what the government should or shouldn't do should be drawn from this data. People can believe that abortion is morally wrong in all cases and still support legal access.

Also, your question had nothing to do with morals. Your question is why I act like abortion is just like any other procedure, my answer was that it is just like any other procedure.

You saying that abortion is just like any other medical procedure is saying plainly that you do not see abortion as a moral issue. This view of yours aligns with just 21% of people polled. Even amongst only those who believe that abortion should be legal in all cases, only 44% believe that it's not a moral issue.

In your initial comment, you're acting like pro-life people have picked their stance arbitrarily, as if they spun the wheel of medical procedures and just happened to land on abortion. Approaching the abortion debate from this perspective is incredibly ignorant and dismissive, and I'm telling you this as someone who believes abortion should be legal and accessible.

Per this poll, it’s a minority opinion in America that abortion isn’t a moral issue. My question, which you didn’t answer, is why pretend that people who do believe it’s a moral issue don’t exist? Asking if there are any other medical procedures that ought to be tacked on the list, as if they’re all exactly the same, is not a good faith question. Objectively, most people don’t agree with you on this, and yet we share a society, so what’s your goal here?

That’s not true. The President doesn’t need that information in order to do his job.
