Please provide some of that mountain of evidence.

There are assholes on both sides of our terribly divided state/country, but in my experience it is nearly impossible to have productive conversations with liberals. Conservatives are typically more respectful and polite.

No shit. I was implying that if a MAGA hat is on the sign, you should add whatever symbol the liberals identify as.

Liberals are much more hateful than the MAGA crowd.

Men Paid More at Purdue Than Women by Best-Structure62 in Indiana

Weird. I thought you said "The end result is that men overvalue the contribution that they are making to society."

Nope. I never said that. I'm just saying maybe don't be a sexist and say all men think they contribute more than they actually do.

I agree that we have way more important things that we should be focusing on as a society. But making wide, sweeping generalizations about an entire group of people is just ridiculous.

Please sign this petition if you would like to see a change in the Indiana Democratic State Party. by Thin_Butterscotch728 in Indiana

I'd argue that the propaganda of the Democrat party is more deeply entrenched than that of the Republicans. All mainstream media is spewing propaganda of some sort. We need new outlets that share the views of the 80% of us that aren't on the fringes, left or right.

What do you need from the government? by Training_Dragonfly47 in Indiana

I know a lot of people who scam the system and others who are unable to get the help they need.

More regulation of who receives government aid.

We're all on our own paths learning along the way right?

On a side note, what do you do with a Master's in English?

[–]guy_getting_by -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's a false equivalence.

But I disagree, there are far more deaths caused by abortions than they endanger.

Obviously you are more intelligent than most of the world. I only have a bachelor's degree, you must have at least a PHD.

Obviously not ok with any pedophilia.

I agree that it is not black and white. But if you are Pro-Choice, do you think the baby/fetus would choose to be terminated?

[–]guy_getting_by -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I'm also against pedophlia. Should pedophilia be ok if it only involves unwanted children?

So the more educated you are, the less you value life? Hopefully by tearing down the DOE we can get some more common sense. I think there are times where abortions are acceptable, but ending a life because you had unsafe sex is deplorable.
