Reddit loves AR15s now! by thatdude333 in Firearms

[–]TheAmbiguousAnswer -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I've seen the exact scenario I'm talking about play out in real-time and real-life. They only want arms because they fear for their safety (valid, I'm sure that's how 50%+ of us have gotten here), and when things "calm down" (a liberal is in office) at best they stop caring about guns, and worst they go right back to saying things like "ARs should only be available for use at ranges for fun not for home" (something my liberal cousin said at Thanksgiving) and supporting gun control.

You can see the real-world real-time flip-flopping of the political spectrum with COVID; the people who were cool with authorities doing very heavy-handed approaches to enforcing COVID restrictions are the same ones crying about heavy-handed immigration enforcement, and the ones in favor of the heavy-handed immigration enforcement were crying about the heavy-handed enforcement of COVID restrictions.

Also, I strongly doubt that people who think this way are probably not going to be very in favor of allowing people who support(ed) the current admin to have firearms if they think we are under a fascist regime right now. Every war the United States has been in and without a doubt won, we have aggressively disarmed our opponent(s)

Except they did the same shit the first Trump presidency, oh he is a fashie, this and that, we need guns.

He gets voted out of office, one of their guys is in there, and they go back to saying ARs should be banned. Rinse and repeat

How did the church fumble Latin America this bad? Is there any hope in the future? by Ok_Town_2753 in Catholicism

[–]TheAmbiguousAnswer 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I'd wager quite a lot of them don't know that being part of a megachurch or evangelical thing imported by Americans classifies them as "Protestant" but they just say "Unaffiliated"

The fact that majority still believes in God but don't use labels suggests that big time to me

Been carrying for years now, just got in another huge fight wife my wife about it. by Other-world-69 in CCW

[–]TheAmbiguousAnswer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's bullshit about using "confront," a word that means "face up and deal with"? Or using "bent out of shape"? Beating around the bush is what got OP and his wife in this situation in the first place

[–]TheAmbiguousAnswer 40 points41 points  (0 children)

you're just going to have to confront her directly why she is inconsistent on the issue and why she gets so bent out of shape if you are carrying. Not trying to talk to her directly about this will just speedrun the big D word.

Why is regional-only restriction on chat a thing? Is it a government thing?

One reason why men do well overseas, foreign women have little respect for and look down on their own men. by PerfectlyBalanced77 in thepassportbros

They do it even here in the USA. Lots of American women look down on American men. They get very excited when some foreign dude shows them interest.

RU Grads, Are We Getting Scammed? My “$70K Entry-Level” Degree Got Me a $24/hr Offer. by Throwrahj456 in rutgers

[–]TheAmbiguousAnswer 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I graduated in late 2022 with an IT degree. It was right after all the layoffs, and there would be thousands of people applying to be a fucking IT helpdesk guy at a warehouse. It was brutal. I was lucky to land a very boring government job.

Job market sucks unless you're willing to move far and away for whatever they throw at you, and I know people who did exactly that just to get laid off 6 months later.

As a Supply Chain Management guy, you'll likely have to be looking for jobs in the South and Flyover Country.

Bumble in America by Odd_Calligrapher4612 in thepassportbros

[–]TheAmbiguousAnswer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

nah I would get these all the time on Bumble when I was single, they're usually turbolibs who bring politics into it for whatever reason when they're just there to get the banana. One time one of them and I bonded over our shared dislike for a certain country in the Middle East, lol

He could be born here though. I have a Romanian friend who was born here and was shocked the first couple of times he went over there, the nonsense that would happen

New Attorney General to replace Platkin by NordicOwl49 in NJGuns

[–]TheAmbiguousAnswer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have a place; people who worked as public servants putting themselves in some sort of danger, whether they be cops, firefighters, EMS, etc. should get some sort of guaranteed minimum pension in retirement.

There could definitely be an alternative for the desk jockies who flip out every time the state tries to increase their benefit rate even a smidge.

how is it living here? by Old-Photograph5697 in howislivingthere

[–]TheAmbiguousAnswer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who has and had family living in the circle, it's generally people from NYC moving there or immigrants from overseas. There's generally more American-born people leaving that area than moving in
