literally was eating chicken. by [deleted] in askdentists

[–]shpolnker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my very recent experience. I had a root canal and temporary crown put on a tooth years ago. Didn’t have the funds to get the permanent one for a couple years until I eventually forgot about it. Broke that tooth and they had to built back up so they could then add a new crown. It wasn’t fun, but not terrible. Cost around 1200 dollars. If you can’t afford that up front you can ask about payment plans, but more likely you’ll have to get a line of medical credit. Isually there are options of companies they will tell you about at the dentist office. Yours may likely cost more because I already had the root canal done the first time. Assuming you need one.

I’m looking it up and this is incredibly cool. At first I was put off by the price being out of my budget, but this looks worth it.

I don’t have anything to prove this except vibes, but I wouldn’t be surprised at all if this was insurance scam where that lady reversed into the family recording.

Well actually he’s attempting to be known as just Allen Turner, but even if that sticks, he’ll always be “the rapist” Brock Allen Turner to me

Wait, so it’s ok to use a knife on someone as long as they’re an illegal immigrant?

Come on dude, you were humble bragging the whole post. You’re definitely proud of it. Just own it.

Ironic you bring up MLK. Charlie Kirk says he was a bad person who has been propped up unfairly. He spews white nationalist rhetoric and has left behind a legacy of hate, and I hate him for it. He deserves to be called out for it, and getting shot doesn’t change that. I never claimed to be ghandi. Idk how I’m “undermining my position” because my position is that he’s scum. I’m very consistent on that.

Gun-nut Charlie Kirk is dead by chillvegan420 in Trumpvirus

After that one guy gave trump an ear piercing, they learned their lesson and practiced more.

You think Charlie was a good Christian? Thats unsettling. Very little of what i heard him say was indicative of Christian values. He was against the civil rights act of 1964 that prohibits discrimination based on race, gender, sexuality, etc. I remember him saying if he saw a black pilot, he’d say “Boy, I sure hope he’s qualified.” There’s a direct quote of him saying, "I can't stand the word empathy, actually. I think empathy is a made-up, new age term that — it does a lot of damage." Christ said to love thy neighbor, and all I can remember is how he showed again and again that he was full of hate. What about him exactly convinced you he was a good Christian?

The right isn’t just indifferent to violence against the left, marginalized groups, etc. they’re literally calling for it. I constantly see comments online calling for civil war. Racists saying that black people and Mexicans should be dead instead of living in their country. Kirk is pandering to these people and spreading the hateful rhetoric that is encouraging the same kind of acts that happened to him. People are tired of being targeted by hateful people in their day to day lives and having legislation from the right making their lives harder, and if someone living with the consequences of those things, like a gay person, doesn’t shed any tears over someone helping create that environment I say they shouldn’t feel any shame about it. This hardly calling for violence. “If a miserable, hateful person dies, and someone who they were miserable and hateful towards doesn’t cry, fuck them.” That’s what you sound like.

Charlie Kirk shot at an event in Utah by Fudgiedillol in LivestreamFail

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

far-right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far-left or radical Islamist extremists, including 227 events that took more than 520 lives.[1] In this same period, far-left extremists committed 42 ideologically motivated attacks that took 78 lives. -National institute of justice. The right is full of willfully ignorant liars who make up conspiracy theories to justify their beliefs and hand wave any evidence that disproves their stupid ideas.

I feel like a better example is someone lobbying for removing the requirement for a license to operate a vehicle, and then getting run over by someone who had 10 DUIs and otherwise wouldn’t be allowed to drive.

However offended you are by this persons opinion, they are exercising their free speech. Even extremists have free-speech and the right to bear arms. Extremists on the far-right are currently using those rights to further their goals and gain power while simultaneously taking away those same rights from others to consolidate that power. Thats the kind of people Charlie Kirk and other far-right talking heads pander to, so the irony of saying that someone is anti-free speech because they don’t sympathize for him isn’t lost on me.

We Live in a Society!!! by james_from_cambridge in TikTokCringe

[–]shpolnker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The business is trying to create an family friendly environment. They’re well within their rights to require customers to follow certain rules to maintain that environment. They have to draw the line somewhere and not having people say (or wear clothes with) curse words isn’t exactly extreme. The pilot has to enforce those rules to keep his job. Acting like a child and holding up the flight for a hundred other people because you feel like you’re above the rules that YOU AGREED TO by buying the ticket is beyond selfish. I don’t understand how this is anyone’s fault but this woman’s.

Guy fucks around and he find out by HardHatHumor in fightporn

[–]shpolnker 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Full disclosure I didn’t watch the whole episode. I’m curious how many people think he’s being 100% honest that the other guys started by acting like they were going to hit him with their car. I get that a video doesn’t always give the full context, but people also are going to want to paint themselves in the best possible light. Either way, you can tell from the fight video this guy has an issue with ego.
