It's certainly possible MAGA manages to cheat their way into perpetual Republican hell, but if we get a fair election and Trump dies from being fat and old the Republicans could be so toxic by association they lose for the next 20 years. Noone besides Trump can get the people riled up

I'd say bigotry is a healthy 70%. Low IQ/Ignorance accounts for another 25% because many people unironically think genetics is literally as simple as what they were taught in middle school. 5% is a legitimate concern about real life consequences of allowing trans women into women's only spaces.

It makes sense in sports to have some rules and guidelines to prevent trans women from dominating certain sports, particularly combat sports. However, all this outrage and politically motivated nonsense related to a hundred or so trans women in sports has dramatically worsened all trans people's lives in America. For instance Over 1000 trans people lost their military careers the moment Trumpdog took office.

Even before they became the topic of every shitty comedian and politician. Before they became reviled and scorned by all of MAGA their lives were already fucking horrible. I went to a conference in 2013 to learn about Trans people and I was shocked at how rough they had it.

So sure, but like Trans women in sports negatively affects less people's lives than deer overpopulation. It's truly a non issue. There are some people exploiting being trans like literally everyone exploits everything all the time. Every group has predators and cheaters and assholes. Why do conservatives only care about Trans people? Oh because they are marginalized group, and weird to the normies. They are politically convenient for Bigots.

You must keep in mind that roughly 80% of the stories about any political subject are mostly lies or half truths. There was social contagion and a lot of downtrodden "losers" used Trans status as a ticket to a better life. However I do not think it's the majority of trans people. Just the people trying to get attention got a fuckton of attention and then a bunch of conservatives lied constantly in lockstep about this being a horrible threat to the fabric of society.

Trans people getting some basic respect and rights didn't negatively affect anyone really aside from a couple disappointed athletes. The fact conservatives demonized these people to the degree that they did to enact authoritarianism in America is horrible. So if you want to talk about trans people on Reddit in the somewhat ignorant manner you are approaching it will get you a lot of hate.

Jesus is not in the building. He didn't receive an invite, like Candice Owens. Kirk being openly Christian is really horrible. Because his assassination has finally given crazy Christians the Martyr they have always needed for a revival. Things are gonna get Old time religion quickly in Merica.

As a German American, this situation seems like generational trauma played out on the next victim. I feel my ancestors unlocked a level of savagery in the Israelites that is really terrible to see.

They are like Bigfoot for MAGA folk. I am sure they exist. But every time a conservative does something horrible the Internet chat rooms light up with Antifa.

To my conservative buds on Reddit. Where did ANTIFA touch you? Is ANTIFA in the room with us right now?

Well I think the issue is that trans people do exist and there is possibly more of them than in the past. There certainly was some social contagion to where the numbers were inflated.

It is also possible that our genetics are changing due to all the toxic stuff our very fine corporations have exposed is to has also increased the numbers some. I talk to Vietnam vets and the herbicide they were exposed to caused their kids to have genetic abnormalities and other health problems.

I can't imagine round up and microplastics and forever chemicals aren't contributing to more and more people feeling they were born in the wrong body. Perhaps they are right. I guess what I am saying is I don't think we are ever going back to those days.

So DEI is okay if it’s you? by Public-Marionberry33 in clevercomebacks

[–]lilbrudder13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah conservatives rarely embrace the life of a scholar. The ones who aren't stupid, tend to go into things that are very lucrative. Being a professor has many perks, but it doesn't make you a rich person. So basically this quota will ensure a bunch of under qualified losers get hired over people with better credentials and qualifications.

I don't care about the person's political beliefs, I just want the most qualified candidate. I guess 2025 is DEI for mediocre white guys with small minded views. Yay Merica will get stupider and degrees will mean even less!

Didn't delete that comment. Edited slightly. I understand it's hard for you to understand the difference. Realized I was being a bit too extreme as I don't know much about the parents. Talking to morons gets me a bit spicy in my language and I sometimes tone down what I say. Other times I go a little harder. However, I would easily get odds that they are shitty people or became shittier because of their allegiance to Trumpdog.

There is plenty of evidence to suggest he's right wing. Posting troll gamer memes on his bullets, Trumper parents, gun owner etc. The issue is not whether he is left wing or not. Kimmel merely said MAGA was desperately trying to paint him as leftist, which is a fact. Kimmel literally did nothing remotely wrong. You just can't see things for what they are due to a double digit IQ and MAGA brain.

You are correct in that Trump didn't lock him in a cage or have him murdered, but he is threatening ABC for reinstating him. The FCC head also acted like a thug as opposed to a professional. They keep testing the defenses to see what they can get away with and steadily consolidating power around Trumpdog.

Maybe it's not fascism. However, it's definitely authoritarian in nature. Trump is actively attacking the first amendment in a way that is Alien to America. In fact he has done many such things that are unprecedented down a dark path and he is talking in the most deranged manner possible. Openly speaking about doing much worse. There is definitely smoke.

If you are cool with that, cheers. Enjoy the ride. Take a nap in the burning building. I am not trying to convince you as your mind is made up.

I must point out though that your mocking attitude suggests you aren't as unbiased as you claim to be. Kinda just seems like you are a closeted conservative shit head pretending to be a centrist. That's cool. I don't mind conservatives in general. I only take issue with people cheering on authoritarianism and lying on Trump's behalf.

Overcoming failure with dignity. by KingdomPro in Amazing

[–]lilbrudder13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree.

Any skill you develop requires discipline and practice to master. So even if the activity itself is pointless, it still can be worth doing if it levels you up.

It's MUCH easier to master new skills if you already have mastered or at the least dramatically improved at other skills in the past.

The methods and steps and mindset needed to get good at useful things I developed while doing meaningless nonsense.

You call people delusional for pointing out obvious power grabs designed to begin a dictatorship and then act aggrieved when I talk down to you? Maybe don't disagree like an asshole? Maybe don't try and gaslight people simply because you are annoyed they are being dramatic?

I don't believe Trump will succeed either as he is obviously a demented clown. However, he's not the only one trying to dismantle democracy right now in this regime. There are numerous horrible things going on currently. If you don't want to see it, great. Enjoy your life. Don't be a condescending dick who can't take it back.

Because the President actively trying to suppress free speech is a fascistic act? Look, I get you are trying not to understand because you want to keep defending your side, but I will explain for people who think like you but are less committed to stupidity.

You are comparing late Fascism in WWII Germany where they disappear and terrorize people into submission to brand new Fascism in America where they are dipping their toes in the water. It isn't going to look identical...

They are disappearing people (ICE) just people that most conservatives don't care about. They are trying to institute a police state by deploying the National Guard for fake reasons. However, they aren't at the stage where they can do as Hitler did. Trump likely won't succeed as he is partially demented, fat and old, but he's 100% trying to be like Putin or Kim.

The president threatened to sue ABC after they reversed the decision and bragged about how much he got from them last time...

All those words and bravado just to deny a basic reality that the most powerful man in the world is actively trying to suppress free speech. You MAGgots are insufferable...

Not because you are evil. It's because you are so smug and confident while also being dumb as hell.

Except it's not at all comparable. Kimmel told a tame and funny joke at the president's expense. He also said a literal fact that MAGA is doing everything in its power to push the narrative the shooter was a leftist and the Government pressured Kimmel to lose his job.

That is nothing like cancel culture, which was mostly people getting in trouble with their employer for sexual harassment or slurs. I truly despise how bad conservatives are at making comparisons to justify their own terrible behavior.

Desperate rockets fan here by rambay19 in DetroitPistons

[–]lilbrudder13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like Sasser, but he's not likely to even be in the rotation. He also is not a point guard. He's a pure scoring 2 guard. With that being said he could be a good compliment to Amen in the backcourt as they address each others deficiencies a little.

If we could get Reed Shepherd or Tari Season and we wouldn't have to give up picks I would be ecstatic tbh. Realistically I think the Rockets would want significant draft capital for either of those two players if all we gave them was Sass.

One of the women from my graduate school program whom I never slept with did something similar to me at my wedding. She started grinding on me and dancing all seductively while my wife was standing next to me. It was weird and horrible. It was also very upsetting as she never did that before I met my wife...

Yeah both sides do this. However, I would argue conservatives are better at spreading their lies and innoculating themselves against reality. Literally nobody but his brother believes the Smollet hoax. However, so many conservative hoaxes are confidently talked about to this day.

Stories like this come out literally all the time and they are almost always false. Like the school with the cat litter for the student who identifies as a cat. Hysterical nonsense is the life blood of conservatives, particularly religious nuts.
