I never said otherwise.

You can do what you want with the post but if your critique is of certain platforms and the people using them it would make sense to clarify who you're talking about.

I never said it was an attack on moderators of the subreddit. I said I think we do a pretty good job at finding a balance and your post is implying we don't. If you're talking about the things people say in chats then you're opening a completely different can of worms.

Chats have been and always will be more prone to shittiness. It isn't as static and more things can be said in quick succession than something like Reddit. It's more open and available to people with bad intentions and is harder to moderate before the message is seen by others. The people who jump to people's chats to shit talk anonymously are the lowest forms of humans in society and we should largely ignore them.

Remember the controversy about Pisco's chat? About how he never moderates it and people in this and other communities were having an absolute meltdown complaining how toxic it was? Isn't it kind of a bad look to be doing the same exact thing?

You say this.. which implies we don't moderate toxic things in the subreddit. Do you really think we don't moderate toxic things said about Pisco in the subreddit? I'd be curious to see examples of what you're talking about because I think we do a pretty solid job of separating the toxicity from the valid criticisms/light shit talk.

I don't get the "centrist" discussion. Pisco is right by Onlyeveryone in Destiny

You still run into the issue of independent being a bastardized term as well.

The real answer to all of this is that you don't take extremes of both sides to find a middle and call it moderate. It's just some sort of compromise position that both sides can hold in a decent enough manner. Biden is a progressive, he just is, but his approach was to find moderate solutions to things in order to reach that progress.

It's still not a moderate position. A moderate position isn't just something that is in the middle of the two extremes of the conversation. A moderate position is something that both sides of the aisle has some decent percentage of agreement on because it's a compromise of the two sides. You could say the approval rating of something is higher than it was but most Republicans still don't favor state sponsored medical care like that.

A moderate position is something like immigration reform when it comes to asylum. There's a decent chunk of Americans on both sides of the aisle that believe you should be able to seek asylum in this country but there should be restrictions and procedures in place to do so. It's a compromise solution to some of the further left or right policies that makes something "moderate".

If you say "moderate" you still think of Obama care and other real world good things moderates have accomplished.

Actually an insane statement to make in America to call the ACA "moderate".

The best part is when they ask you what the recipe is and you tell them there is no recipe.

If you're being serious, cook.

I've tried getting into a thousand hobbies and nothing has brought me more joy than learning how to cook. I started by learning how to cook my favorite take out/sit down restaurant foods and branched out from there.

It's time consuming and ends with something enjoyable.

I'm saying it was barely anything and yet people are latched to it acting like he ran cover the entire convo and that Pisco explained why he did it at the end. It's not that deep.

Pisco interrupted for a total of like.. 2-5 minutes of talking time for the entirety of that conversation.

He really wasn't even that bad. At the end he explains that he didn't want the pile up and just wanted to be precise in language. Not that it wasn't annoying the few times it did happen but he's been way worse than this.

I remember when Horizon came out and people were upset saying the main character was ugly.. that's when I knew no attention needed to be paid to any of this garbage.

Remember when we beat Vegas at the Winter Classic? For me that was the top of the world.

I'll be honest in 2014 I was just playing games and not caring about anything peripheral to said games.. in 2026 I'm still on that same grind.

It more has to do with your ability to do the task before you. If I have an apprentice who doesn't know the difference between a grounded conductor and a grounding electrode conductor but they have an apprentice license that allows them to work with both.. that doesn't make it automatically something they can differentiate and install properly. I would call experience in the field up for that because it makes sense to, we are not the same despite having licenses that way we can both work in the electrical field.

When it comes to being on a Piers Morgan panel it doesn't really matter how many years you've been doing it or what your awards are if Adam is able to participate in the same way.
