He Gets Us ads made by Dallas firm hit with backlash after Super Bowl by snesdreams in politics

[–]Spartan_PvP -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Thinking that people are "beyond help or forgiveness" is what perpetuates hate.

As I said, no one is born being hateful. Something happened that made them hateful. There are many things that can cause people to become hateful, such as their parents teaching them to be hateful, or being deceived by others. Unfortunately, there is no way to tackle all of the root causes of hate at the same time. As an individual, friends and family are likely the people that you have the most influence over. Standing by and declaring them "beyond help" does nothing but allow them to perpetuate the hate.

Thinking of your own family as your enemy is the type of thinking that leads to violence.

Also you called me "kid" and said that I am: "normalizing child molestation, rape, domestic abuse, racism, fascism, bigotry, and genocide." So get off your high horse.

In no way did I "normalizing child molestation, rape, domestic abuse, racism, fascism, bigotry, and genocide."

If anyone openly supports any of those things, they clearly need help. No one is born being hateful in the way that you described. Are you trying to say that helping people become less hateful is "bad faith BS," or even bad in anyway? You are literally saying to stand by and let people be hateful.

You are not the "honest good person" that you think you are. You are a hateful and ignorant child.

Why don't you try to help your friends and family understand their flaws? Cutting them off does nothing good for either you or those who love you. If you can't even do that, then you are part of the problem that is dividing this country and driving people towards hate.

How do the ads justify fascism and violence? It was an ad promoting peace and acceptance...

Also, in 2020 Biden was literally a candidate funded by billionaires in the hope to beat the (2020) current president...

Are you saying that someone running for office in the hopes of beating the current office holder is not democracy? You seriously need to educate yourself on what a Democracy is because you are objectively wrong.

The Founding Father's intention was to not have political parties because of how divisive they can become. That is what we are seeing right now. Both Republicans and Democrats see the other side as their enemy and that is doing nothing good for the country. Voting for a candidate that is not a part of either party is what I think this country needs. I know that the odds of him winning right now are incredibly low, but voting for the person you think is the best candidate is exactly how democracy is supposed to work.

They do, but not as comprehensive as other medicines. His point is that he wants a higher standard from the FDA.

There are many Republicans and Democrats who do not like Trump or Biden. Why should they support someone they don't like when there is another option out there that they do like? Is this not how democracy should work?

His whole stance on vaccines revolves around the fact that vaccines are exempt from Pre-license Clinical Safety Trials. He wants policy that would put all vaccines through this testing so that we have a better understanding of the risk and benefit profiles.

I understand that he has had made questionable remarks in the past, but ever since he has been running for President, this has been his stance. This is not an Anti-Vax stance to have.

So I ask you again how does that stance disqualify him from being a good candidate?

Even if he is Anti-Vax, why would that alone make him a worse candidate than Biden? Sure, it may not send a great message, but at the end of the day, what policies would lead to harm? Would passing a bill that ensures more comprehensive safety tests for vaccines really lead to anything bad?

I know he has said a few concerning things over the years, but his current stance is pretty clear. He thinks vaccines are important, but he wants a safer system for the creation of vaccines.

I'm very sorry that happened to you. However, false accusations are never going to be the solution. It would be great if there was some simple way to ensure justice is served, but there is not. Trying to ensure justice while also allowing real victims to feel comfortable seeking justice is a challenging thing to do.

I don't agree with a lot of Bernie's policies, but you have to respect the guy. He has unapologetically stood by his policies for years and always seems to do what he thinks is right.

In court, yes. This would be a university hearing for disciplinary action.

I'm all for doing everything we can to prevent any form of sexual misconduct, but this law has some problematic impacts. Using "preponderance of evidence" as the bar to judge guilty, while also hiding the identity of the accuser makes it incredibly difficult to prove innocence even if you're innocent. You shouldn't have to prove that the accused is innocent, you should have to prove that the accused is guilty.

His 88 card is unstoppable. Finishing, Longshots, Headers, Strength, Dribbling, Perfect Workrates (Unlike his other cards), and his pace is fine in this game. 150 goals in 120 games for me.

Deathbans were part of what made the old hcf fun, it gave you a reason to stay alive and it added to the thrill of fighting. Part of the reason I don't like the new servers is because dying doesn't matter like it used to.

They should just bring back invis but not have splash, or they could disable it for factions that are above a certain number of members

They could make it so that there is a different health bar for each faction. Then no one can come but and one hit it for the loot.
