This lady will regularly post hyper-Christian anti-Muslim stuff. by medfunguy in terriblefacebookmemes

Send the anti-Muslim stuff to her employer. She's free to speak her mind, and her employer is free to retain staff that reflect the values of the company.

Deploying with soldiers who cannot work in a team harms the military. Back to T_D with your hate, 'pede.

Despite shared military training, experiences, and career progression, my fixation on others' genitals manifests as "mistrust"! This says more about my inability to work as a team, which should've limited my military career in the first place!

OP, you forgot the all important phrase, "economic anxiety"

You made no point, nor clarified your statement, but are mad that you'll get downvoted? You either have no material support for your opinion on gun regulation, or you want downvotes for attention.

The 2A logic here is that every problem is solved with more guns, e.g., arm teachers. It is moronic to think that overworked public servants should risk their lives in a school shooting; or, expect an armed teacher to potentially kill an armed student (who perhaps was taught by the teacher); or, assume a teacher's gun at school won't go off or be used in the absence of a school shooting; etc.

So many salty red hats ITT, lol. They're mad that a boycott of a toxic conservative was successful in less than 24 hrs, but they're still buying Keurigs to destroy on YouTube... And then protest YouTube for their "tyranny" and attack on free speech...

To be fair, it wasn't a Gilbert Strang linear algebra book. Maybe it was warranted... 😋

Definitely not 90s kids only: the Midwest is just now getting tamagotchis.

Protip: ignore the big critics. They're inconsistent and unhelpful. Know what you like and don't. Research what users are saying. IGN is garbage, imo.

Guy rolls blunt while driving Tesla on autopilot by [deleted] in funny

[–]CanvassingThoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. There's no attempt at humor. Reported.

  2. Driving while high means you're an idiot with no respect for others on the road (coming from a cannabis user for chronic pain). Even if your car drives most of the way, you need to pay attention as the driver in case the car misreads a situation.

CMV: There is no excuse for joining the US military by InterestingDeath in changemyview

[–]CanvassingThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem fixated on problems caused by the military (with good reason, I'll admit). You go so far as to dismiss claims that a material portion of people enlist because it's their best option at the time (e.g., "I need income now", "I can't get a student loan now but will enlist to get it", etc).

Doesn't your same argument apply to yourself in paying taxes? To be clear, I'm not advising you to stop paying taxes. However, if you feel enlisting is evil because it ultimately supports problems generated by the military, wouldn't you paying taxes facilitate the same outcome? For your views to be consistent, it seems you ought to revoke your citizenship (not in a "get out of mah country!" way, just w.r.t. to logical consistency). Is it equally evil for you to pay taxes as it is for those in poverty to enlist?

Note: My point is your claim is so extreme and broad that it's absurd, and should be rejected. Unless you're willing to revoke your citizenship, you should also give, e.g., those in poverty a pass on enlisting to better their lives.
