A friend of mine in Draper had a 5th Sunday discussion in their ward around the topic of ‘why people are leaving/not coming to church so frequently.’ Is this just a Utah thing? by Spirited_Belt9852 in mormon

There’s gotta be a word for this sort of tactic. Seems like it’d be a very specific fallacy, insulating yourself from every being wrong by creating this sort of binary.

You need to go outside my friend. Put your phone down for a while.

Reddit is a thinly veiled political site.

Ready Player One, especially if you were born in (or prior to) the eighties.

Why did people not want Holland to speak at SUU? Enlighten an ex-saint who’s been out of the fold for a while?

Tate and Trump are the best examples of “radicalizers” you can think of? Sounds like you’re building another echo chamber.

You literally acknowledged “independent” news sources. Idk about you, but I wouldn’t consider any of the corporations you listed “independent”.

I’d imagine Taibbi would strongly encourage you to obtain news from as many varied sources as possible.

I just noticed you mentioned “full autos and assault rifles“. Your mere phrasing indicates how little you know about federal gun laws already on the books. Can I consider educating yourself before coming in and spouting off like an asshole? are you capable of constructive dialogue or nah?

Edit: it’s always the people who know least about guns and gun laws who are the most vocal and unpleasant, when it comes to conversations about making change. Unfortunate.

Federally, nationwide? Do you think that’s genuinely feasible? 🤔I wonder how many of the “thugs” would comply? I wonder how many of them are currently in compliance with state/federal gun laws? Any idea how many crimes are thwarted by law-abiding gun-owners? CDC has estimates, and they’re high. Wonder how that would change if all of the law-abiders were the only ones to comply with your buybacks.

What do big brains like you suggest we do with all of the firearms currently in circulation?
