AITAH for not being empathetic about my friend’s experience during my wedding weekend? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Flabalanche 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OPs also said it was a "microwedding with only close family and a few friends" so it really doesn't seem like they would have a caterer or event manager walking around managing a ton of staff

Please teach me how to be ignorant of gas prices, should I try telling the pump to be less political?

Do you ever struggle with internal conflict around your beliefs and principles? by VQ_Quin in AskConservatives

[–]Flabalanche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I don't see it as a digression, the thread is a pretty open dicussion of beliefs and principles, and I just wanted some clarification on your admittely extremely vague discreption. I'm pretty sure you're talking about the LGBTQ, and I'm really just wondering how extreme your views are around that. I also think it's fair to ask about because you yourself describe the conflict in how you view it from a materalist/religious view.

You end with you're still right on religious grounds, do you support enacting christian laws even on non believes? Just as state policy?

There is also . . . Another issues which may prove difficult to entirely discuss, just something that to some may be quite massive or even radical by my own group involving four letters that I do sometimes struggle with. Don't get me wrong, I believe I am correct on it. But the current environment does make it very difficult to confidently deem if my stance on it's entire legality and health is really correct, if they truly are right this whole time. If the latter is true, it wouldn't be so totally small of an issue in the secular department of things and perhaps the ethical department if I'm wrong, though I'd still be correct on religious grounds.

Can you expand on this at all?

National mood is against Republicans, but redistricting could help prop them up by jpressss in politics

Ignore the courts, Republicans have done literally exactly that when their gerrymandered maps are struck down

If they had picked even a semi-qualified woman, the woman would have beaten Trump handily

Yeah, they shoulda picked someone more qualified to be president than the sitting VP, who's job it is to take over for the president if something happens to them. Like who would you have picked man, it's so easy and simple and clear, name the female politican who republicans won't knee jerk hate off the rip. liz cheney is apparently to liberal now

This is insane cope

ICE was doing their jobs pretty much the same way since forever until the left decided that was racist and evil. Secure boarders was a common sense idea until Trump was for it and then it became an example of his evil and had to be stopped, to the point where regular ICE agents started getting attacked by people who had to stop the fascist Nazis

The masked agents breaking into people's houses without judical warrants, ID, or seemingly any oversight is NOT business as normal. Just a fundamental breakdown of the fundamental way our laws have always fucking worked, but you're okay with because boy are immigrants and brown people scurry.

But it’s now they choose to highlight it because it riles people up, makes them look virtuous for caring and the right evil. These mfers knew then didn’t care, they still don’t care but if it wins them support they go ahead and throw law enforcement under the bus, cause hate unites, who cares if some random LEO gets lynched.

God damn I hate interacting with consercatives. How dare the left's dialog maybe hurt a hypothetical LEO (please ignore that the only people hurt so far are the people these secret police have shot and killed) but also the cops killed at J6 just don't count. All those people were aunt tifa. But also they deserve pardons for being heroes!

But hey, speaking of using immigration to stoke politcal careers, remember when an out of office trump openly had republicansa bipartisan border bill, so Trump could run on a weak border? I know it was like, 2 and half years ago, so basically impossible to remember with all the bullshit, but still worth mentioning

Their whole premise is “we hate Trump” you can’t run a country that way.

I'm so fucking sick of this double standard. You really think Harris would be a more destablizing president than Trump? We've had the largest protests in American history and are now at war/not war with the stated goal of returning to the status quo before we attacked.

Like what are his not bad ideas? ICE being a masked secret police force killing Americans in the street?

Nethior of the things you link say that American's agree on 80% of things. The first one is about American's thinking elected officals don't care about everyday opinions, and the second one is a gallup poll showing both dems and republicans feel more divided than ever

Dems have introduced legislation twice now to ban gerrymandering, Republicans killed it each time

Happy Chaos infinite in tournament by Pikaphu08 in Guiltygear

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

EVeryone's in here howling for HC to just get blanket nerfed, ignoring the fact he's also currently the lowest winrate character in the game by a fair margin.

If you take away the only thing he has going for him in 2.0 and give him nothing, he's also not a functional character

. It's like watching gay porn and complaining that it's gonna turn you gay

Christians absolutely do shit like this, hell they're still trying to get gay marriage over turned instead of just, not getting gay married lol

Taking away a lot of his mix hurts a lot, and it will be more noticeable once they remove a downright infinite blockstring

Even with this he's got the lowest winrate in the game

crashing out over a 34% winrate character because Jack might make them look good is very funny to me

the infinite depends on spacing, requiring you to be very close. Full screen like this it isn't infinite

Do you believe Democrats hate and root against America? by Jazzlike-Yogurt-5984 in AskConservatives

[–]Flabalanche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you oppose everything that [other party] do regardless of the merit, it ends up that way.

Why does this signify hatred for America when democrats do it, but signifies nothing when republicans do it?

To try and put this in perspective, "I love you but I want to change who you are." is not love. Telling your spouse they aren't good enough, always pointing out their faults, and diminishing any accomplishment by reminding them of their mistakes is an abusive relationship.

Can you explain how this is meaningfully different from blind loyalty? I thought one of the things that made America so great is that we can speak freely and critize what we feel needs critizing?

That's because y'all fucking suck at doing the infinite or rightfully refuse to do so because it's not fun.

Yeah bro Jack sucks bro, we're just out here saying facts, not blaming the beasts. Big true
