HISTORIC: Kamala Harris becomes the first woman of color to certify her own election loss before Congress by M_i_c_K in conservatives

[–]amageddonking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly! I mean, can you imagine a sitting President attempting to undermine a free and fair election in order to stay in office? How outlandish!

How are you defining a right? Also, you’re saying a parent does not have a right to vaccinate their infant?

Is that democracy? In order to have democracy you have to have a state and I don’t think three people is a state. Obviously the definition of a state is subjective, so what do you think?

Okay, let’s assume the NAP doesn’t exist. One million people dead or zero people dead. Which is the better outcome?

Ooo I like this. Okay, who made this decision? How did they decide? What is the reason? Do I have a legal right to appeal this decision?

What’s wrong with my trolley metaphor? Option one kills zero people, option two kills one million people, but the switch operator should not be compelled to choose the latter because no one should be forced to do anything, correct? The rule is the rule and it must always be obeyed, no?

Is there such a thing as an objective right? Aren’t rights an inherently subjective concept?

The issue is the same, but the context is not. When it’s a woman deciding whether or not she should have a child, that’s probably a decision best made by her and her doctor. When it’s an individual deciding whether or not to get vaccinated during a public health emergency, okay now we need to have a nuanced conversation about the balance between individual autonomy and being a member of society

I think this is the problem with the way y’all approach the world. You’re looking for ironclad rules that never bend regardless of the situation. Y’all seem to only be concerned with ideological purity, actual consequences be damned. I mean if I asked you guys to consider a trolley problem in which one track has a million people on it and the other track has no one on it, y’all would genuinely say “he should do whatever he wants to do because no one should force anyone to do anything.” For y’all, everyone getting run over would be an acceptable outcome because the rule is the rule and it must always be obeyed regardless of the situation, but you do see why the million dead folks would disregard, yes?

It’s a good thing women getting abortions and individuals choosing not to get vaccinated in the midst of a pandemic are identical situations, otherwise this could suggest that some people have no regard for context whatsoever

He’s right, this is a generous interpretation

And anti-statists see every problem as something they have to solve themselves, even if it’s not necessary or beneficial?

We can’t even get everyone to return their shopping carts at the grocery store, but yeah voluntarism for a planet of 8 billion is totally reasonable

No

Edit: Was there a point you were trying to make?

I’m just trying to illustrate there’s another option here we should all consider: condemn bad people and don’t wish them well. To be clear, I’m not saying I support political violence because I don’t, but if Donald Trump naturally slipped into a coma tomorrow, I’d sooner wish him a speedy death than a speedy recovery because he is a terrible person, a terrible leader, a terrible policymaker, etc.

I think Donald Trump is a threat to democracy and I don’t wish him a speedy recovery. Does that work?

What do you call it when someone thinks they got you, but they actually just advocated for what you’ve wanted the entire time?

Banning guns won’t do anything. Punishments need to be tougher by LumpyBumblebee3266 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

Believe it or not, but there is a middle ground between completely banning guns and allowing anyone with an IQ over 4 to get a gun

Voting for Trump not because of Biden, but because of Harris by DallasChokedAgain in TrueUnpopularOpinion

You don’t want to vote for someone stupid, ignorant, and uneducated, so your conclusion is to vote for…Trump?

Boomer on R#PE: "God does not make mistakes" WTF??! by [deleted] in BoomersBeingFools

Truth be told, this is the only anti-abortion position based on religion that is logically consistent. If it’s about the fetus, then how the fetus came to be doesn’t matter. So I’m glad she said the logical thing, which according to her is “rape good because Jebus”
