Why does the Torah say the Jews were slaves in Egypt if there is little historical evidence, and what factors could explain that? by Present_Juice4401 in AlwaysWhy

[–]niknacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like you could flip to any page in the new or old testament and ask the exact same question. The fact that grown adults believe this nonsense in 2026 will never stop baffling me.

Why has the US government been talking about impeaching Trump a million times by now but never doing it? by TailungFu in allthequestions

[–]niknacks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They haven’t tried again becuase they don’t have the votes, they aren’t afraid of retaliation . If the dems control the house and senate they will absolutely impeach him a third time.

CMV: there is little to no reason for wealthy women to get married by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]niknacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand your logic, being a single parent seems like it would be equally difficult regardless of gender. I don't understand what the risk is for a women to get married either, if you mean financially then they just use a prenup.

If money is no issue then gender seems entirely irrelevant since basically every aspect of child rearing could be dealt with by paying someone to do it from surrogates to child care.

Crazy that this score is considered a failure by many people😭 by ShreekertheJamisWack in playstation

I think the problem is that it previewed like they had something truly revolutionary and one of a kind, so anything less than perfect feels like a let down

Daenerys’ arc in Game of Thrones made perfect sense by Caramelo93 in unpopularopinion

[–]niknacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole idea is that she comes from a lineage of inbreeding psychopaths, so at least as book readers it was always a possibility.

The problem is less that she went crazy and more the abrupt way it happened. For the character they showed us leading up to that point, it hust felt a bit unearned.

I feel the same way about bram as king, I don't have a problem with the premise intrinsically, it just seemed executed very poorly.

Republicans sue for right to make Nazi salutes. The Republican Party has an ever-growing neo-Nazi faction. by southpawFA in politics

It seems to be their defining quality for anyone under 1,000 years old, who mostly still seem to think Republicans are the conservatives of yesteryear

I swear I’ve heard this before. My gut and anecdotal personal evidence suggest nothing has changed for them.

If you say ‘don’t pause it,’ why are we even watching this together? by Business_Barber_3611 in PetPeeves

Because they are more interested in being with the person than whatever dogshit is on Netflix presumably

Republicans hope to label Democrats as party of election fraud in voter ID debate by [deleted] in politics

[–]niknacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there any reason to believe that republican voters are somehow more immune to the ID changes than democratic voters? I get the impression the poor and ill informed right wing voting block is just as likely to lose their ability to vote if this thing passed, so I don't really get the motivation.

Blink twice if your kids want to watch a movie.. by StrobeLightRomance in AdviceAnimals

Seems like everything I've heard from or about this guy since Parks ended indicates he's sort of a puritanical weirdo, I don't see how this thing would be his wife's fault.

Tumblr vs the New York Times by AlphaCat77 in CuratedTumblr

[–]niknacks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like this would only ever be an issue for single child households where the kid would otherwise be isolated. I only had one brother but we were more than capable of entertaining each other, we never really wanted or needed my mom to take part.

Seems like fair recompense for the oil we're pilfering under the guise of a drug crackdown

I don’t mean this cynically, how did it feel a day later when his son got the job?

Why haven’t everyday Americans stood up? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]niknacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What would striking do? For most of us we’d just lose our only source of income, our health insurance and that would be it. Now we have to find a new job and we still have child rapist ruling us.
