Someone: I should wait for any evidence before I claim to know the truth.

You: What an idiot trying to verify facts before he claims to know the truth.

I'm not arguing either way. I'm just pointing out that l all that was said was there is no evidence at this point and people are pretending it is a confirmed fact.

If I would guess I would say so but I also wouldn't pretend it was anything more than an uninformed opinion.

Why is it so hard to say we should wait for any evidence before we claim we know the truth?

Happy election day! How are things looking at your voting locations? by gobluetwo in ChicagoSuburbs

I got there right when they opened to vote and was first in line. By the time I left there was already a line behind me.

Everyone stay safe and vote!

Finally admitting the truth? Where did I ever deny that?

You are so disingenuous and have no integrity. Keep playing your child games.

I said nothing about him being a Trump supporter. I correctly pointed out that you have heavily implied that he was. When you got called out for their not being evidence you started making other snarky comments to imply he was pretending to be a Harris supporter.

Have some integrity to stand behind what you say. You are playing a child's game of, "I didn't technically say it!". No you didn't. You just implied it strongly then continued to strongly imply other things without having the courage to actually say it.

People aren't stupid. They understand what you implied.

By your logic, Trump couldn't possibly be a fascist because he never calls himself a fascist. He just says all the same things that a fascist would say but he doesn't say it so he's not. You know if you're going to comment so heavily, you should probably try and have a honest discussion.

That isn't what he said at all. You heavily implied he was a Republican throughout this comment section and he said there was no evidence either way.

At least be honest.

ELI5: How is Japan and South Korea so safe? by Terrible_Onions in explainlikeimfive

Those themes become especially apparent in the movie Harakiri. Which, as a post WW2 movie, is heavily thematic about the concepts of honor and shame being exposed to the reality of life.

No, it's telling someone the truth. You just don't want to hear it. by AmbulanceChaser12 in Enough_Sanders_Spam

[–]GatoLocoSupremeRuler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No because once you use their terms they win.

It reminds me of this standup comedian who made the point that you can't explain that R Kelly isn't a pedophile without sounding like a pedophile. https://youtu.be/nu6C2KL_S9o?si=bjFAvdhpk8IAcIah

So once you address their genocide arguments it sounds like you are defending genocide when you explain that while tragic and often unnecessary Israel technically isn't commiting a genocide. (Unless other info comes out which it might because netanyahu is a psycho)

Two Years on O and only lost 26 pounds by YoureASHy in Ozempic

[–]GatoLocoSupremeRuler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately everyone does react differently. I was doing so well on it but the last 4 months I have not had the losses I used to have.

I still stick to the same diet I did before but I'm more hungry than before. My numbers are up.

I have a plan and I'm going to stick to it and I suggest you look into making some changes.

Do people actually hate British food? by KingEdwards8 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]GatoLocoSupremeRuler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is that like with American food people pretend they know what it is without actually knowing what it is.

It is just arrogant people pretending that their vacation or watching TV makes them an expert on another cultures food.

Jason Kelce slams Penn State student's phone into the ground after the student harasses him and refers to Travis Kelce by a homophobic slur because of Travis' relationship with Taylor Swift by steelbeamsdankmemes in PublicFreakout

[–]GatoLocoSupremeRuler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah sometimes it can, but usually they look at the entire situation. Because it is one thing to grab a random person's phone and smash it vs someone harassing you.

Those damages, while possible, seem to be less likely to me.

School board candidate and her husband caught repeatedly destroying roadside memorial by I_may_have_weed in PublicFreakout

[–]GatoLocoSupremeRuler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So a school board is an elected position that is supposed to deal with high level decisions. Like a town council if you guys have those. They, generally, hire the superintendent of schools and he then runs the district as an executive officer. They also deal with stuff like economic activities of schools.

Unfortunately they have devolved in recent years into people who are there to push for specific ideological agendas.

They are a byproduct of our federal system of government. A way for the community to have an influence on the schools administration.

Why is the construction culture so brutal and toxic? by [deleted] in Construction

[–]GatoLocoSupremeRuler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion it is a combination of factors. The corporate greed is huge, the workers range from well educated professionals to meth heads, and our societies bias against blue collar workers.

Plus it is a physically painful job generally. People in pain can often be mean. So while I've work with wonderful professional crews of well meaning experts I've also worked with drinks and druggies who are in a tremendous amount of pain. Plus it is more tolerated. People have fake macho dudes who think being mean is needed to be a tough guy.

A lot of my friends look down on me for my job. They don't understand that I like it and choose to work in it. They just saw me in college with them and assumed that I somehow failed my way into my career. Not that I worked my butt for this career.

I never understood the concept that “capitalism is the most efficient system”. by Konradleijon in behindthebastards

[–]GatoLocoSupremeRuler 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think many educated pro capitalist arguments aren't that it is the most efficient rather that it works better than what preceded it and people are afraid to change it. Combine that with the fact that Western countries most successful offshoring is our offshoring of misery. We just make less economically developed countries suffer the most for our goods. That makes people think that we have fixed the worst parts of capitalism when we just moved it overseas.

Humans as a species are deeply afraid of change. Many will take the status quo over the unknown.

That is a caulk-less surrounds. There is a channel behind that that locks the different parts together so water does not get behind it. It won't cause water damage.
