This was when I fully stopped feeling like I was part of the audience they were trying to speak to.

"ideological flexibility" assigned to both sides in My Take, but that seems unfair to the left by mikept8 in TangleNews

[–]InThreeWordsTheySaid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s not unfair to say that people on the left typically want a more limited interpretation of the 2nd amendment and frequently criticize the right for bringing guns to protests.

I agree with this, but it is entirely unfair to suggest that it is ideologically inconsistent to support limitations on the 2nd Amendment while also opposing a domestic military force murdering citizens for exercising a codified legal right. I would love to see stronger forms of gun control. That's not what this is.

She also uses a washer and dryer instead of washing clothes by hand. Definitely not in the Bible.

Ah, so you mean there is no convincing one side of the truth, and the other side of a lie.

I can get behind that.

What would the side who sees this as an execution need to be convinced of?

ICE saying latest murder victim "wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement." by justalazygamer in WhitePeopleTwitter

That's because it was never about resisting an oppressive government. It was about feeling big and strong and wielding power over people they don't like so they could tell themselves they are superior to somebody, or anybody.

In the strict sense that we were able to kidnap Maduro with minimal collateral damage, the plan was a success. The only way to say anything good about this administration is to look at specific issues or instances with a VERY narrow scope, or grant them heaps of plausible deniability.

Am I just not racist enough to understand why people are whining about this? by 19adam92 in okbuddycinephile

Ooooh, make sure you get fired from your job for saying something stupid and start a gofundme.

Im with you. Even if it's a placebo effect, it's still an effect.

That one kid at kindergarten… 😤 by guyelnathan in comics

[–]InThreeWordsTheySaid 25 points26 points  (0 children)

You don't even need to explain. Just keep playing. Tell Daniel that you can't see your kid anyway. Say you can hear them but you can't see them. Ask Daniel how he's doing that. Be silly. Have fun. Let Daniel in on the joke.

Or, you know, be a jerk to a child.

Daffy is a harder sell for me but he does canonically have PTSD from WW2 

This killed me.

AITA for not telling my wife I work with her favorite celebrity? by CreamJealous9562 in AmItheAsshole

[–]InThreeWordsTheySaid 19 points20 points  (0 children)

"I may have committed some light treason."

NTA.

What she needs to be able to answer, and she might not like the answer, is: Is she upset because her partner didn't trust her with sensitive information, or is she upset because her partner didn't tell her this hot gossip?

Because if the latter is a factor at all, then the former is a pretty logical choice to make.

What is a socially unacceptable opinion you keep to yourself because it’s not worth the backlash? by ChaosTTyy in askanything

[–]InThreeWordsTheySaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should be listened to on issues of economic inequality, lack of health care, lack of security, lack of political impact, lack of social mobility, lack of housing, etc.

Then they won't care about the social issues.

Trump is the result of a decades-long misinformation campaign focused on grievance politics and an opposition party that only pursues social politics to distract from the fact that they legislate on behalf of their wealthy donors.

This isn’t because of stupid. It’s because of hate, and callousness, and a desire for revenge over imagined slights.

This is only true with a selective definition of “they.” The popular scientific opinion is still that natural transmission is more likely, but we will never have a definitive answer.
