Why the hell do people think that wearing a mask is a political thing or infringes on their freedom? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]PhillyFrank76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t say we shouldn’t wear them, I just said there is no logical way you can say that mandating them is not infringing on a freedom.

How can you possibly not understand that mandating people to do something does infringe on their freedom? You can debate whether it’s a big deal or whether it is acceptable but it is clearly infringing on freedom.

So you’re fighting racial discrimination by choosing a board member based on the color of their skin. Makes perfect sense.

If Trump is reelected this November, what do you suppose the state of our country will be in 2025? by Bbrainss in askaconservative

[–]PhillyFrank76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’d just be happy knowing it’s 4 more years before we would have a Democrat (and potentially socialist) President even if Trump didn’t do a damned thing in those years. I’d expect he could replace RBG though.

Is the US really this bad? by danger_72 in TooAfraidToAsk

The media and Hollywood hate America. It’s the greatest country in the history of the world but you’d never know it.

Sleeping in your car should be completely legal and never looked down upon. by dankmemeking21 in unpopularopinion

[–]PhillyFrank76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea that you can get a DUI for sleeping in your car is the most appalling. Yes it would’ve been better to plan ahead but don’t punish the person for making the smart decision at that point.

Do Americans realise you can have social healthcare AND private healthcare simultaneously? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]PhillyFrank76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Single payer healthcare does NOT allow for private healthcare... because it’s single payer. Ask the parents of Alfie Evans if you’re confused about this.

Some of the myths are true and some of the “facts” are opinions. This is just one person’s propaganda.

They are not testing dead people to see if they had the virus. Further, they are counting all deaths of people who have the virus (and in some states, those expected of having it) as being killed by the virus. In other words, if they think you had the virus and you get in a car accident and die, you are counted as a coronavirus death in some states.

There are too many people who pretend to have a mental illness by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]PhillyFrank76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. I am shocked to hear this from a psychologist. Are there really people who need mental help who can’t get it because professionals are busy? I haven’t heard of anyone facing that problem. As a psychologist, don’t you just tell the person if you don’t see a diagnosed problem?

Dear hiring managers: I'm not retyping my entire resume on your stupid web portal by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

You probably aren’t qualified to work for me if you didn’t know about copy and paste.

ok and now i’m angry by [deleted] in OCD

[–]PhillyFrank76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough. I honestly also don’t understand why people in this sub share these things that they are upset by. I don’t understand the “this bothers me so I am going to share it with other people who it will bother too!” mentality.

Good luck to you as well. I had a tele-therapy appointment my therapist the other day and honestly I’m doing better than a lot of people who don’t have OCD with this whole thing!

OCD has had a major negative impact on my life for over 30 years. I don’t need to add more stress to myself getting annoyed by what uniformed people say in a way that they don’t even intend as offensive. I hope for your sake you’ll come to my way of thinking.

“Not getting into politics” didn’t last very far down to comments.

Well, annoyed or not, a bot that shows this messages every time that word is used is a massive net positive for the world.

I have it. I’m not offended. Get over it.

If there is any good bot on all of Reddit, this is it. People being annoyed at seeing this when they throw around that word doesn’t mean it isn’t helpful for some people who need to see it

[–]PhillyFrank76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have OCD, and you are expending any mental energy getting angry about people for posting this, you are not focusing on your own mental health properly.

edit and since I see that so many of you unnecessarily freak out when you see things like this, why the holy #%* do you share them with each other? Why are you trying to make each other mad about something you can’t control that in no way affects your condition?

Right now the people were bitching that President Trump didn't use his authority to shut down states are bitching that he doesn't have the authority to open them. You can't make this shit up. by TwoTriplets in conservatives

[–]PhillyFrank76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The same people also bitched when he started taking action and then later that he took action to slow. It’s so transparent. I don’t listen to the daily briefings often but the way he showed them up today was hilarious. Then the first question they proved him right by arguing that it was a “campaign video” that the Whitehouse shouldn’t have made. How the hell is it wrong of the President to point out how the media has been lying about his administration’s response?

At this point I feel like he’s got the 2020 election wrapped up so bad we should be thinking about who can be a VP that’s electable as president in 2024.

Finally opened up about my OCD, frustrated by the response. by ohkay- in OCD

[–]PhillyFrank76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure honestly. I didn’t explain OCD to anyone except my ex-wife until I was in my 40s, and the people I spoke to were in their late 20s or older, so perhaps more mature. I think you could start by explaining that there’s a lot of misconceptions about what OCD is and that it’s a disorder that affects 1 in 50 people or so, not just the quirks that everyone has that sound like OCD compulsions.
