Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Because they are the ones that knew but chose to play some bullshit game instead of putting their shit aside for the reality they knew was there but just made them feel uncomfortable.

Its actually way worse in that way then the republicans who are nearly impossible to blame as they were and some still are totally convinced a fantasy reality was actually there at that time and can't be held as accountable by blaming as much as they see it as a personal attack and it vindicates them if not put in language they understand.

Tell the republicans to fuck themselves and it helps to remind them they're supporting a pedo and a warmongerer. Hold them accountable with specifics actions he's done against them and why its bad. Not a general you shouldn't have voted for him because fantasyland reasoning

You have to do their thinking for them entirely I'm learning, its like drugs, theyre addicted to people thinking for them, have to get them a healthy alternative to get them weaned so they can fend for themselves afterwards but not before that happens

play some bullshit game

Oh I know this one, its the two party system pretending to be a democracy right?

But I am things are bad because the wrong team is in power, and if they turn out to be great it is all due to the brave right team. But hey good thing you are there to "do their thinking for them entirely"!

Jesus your contextual reading needs work

Fox news ONN types need they're thinking done for them.

You need therapy and a fucking wake up call. This is reality not some ideological victimhood posturing contest. The two party system controlled by the media and the monetary powers that be run this shitshow (along with Russian gov misinformation campaigning and other fucking useful idiots)

So spelled out. It was not a good time to take that fight and were all getting fucked up now because you fucked up your turn.

Figure if they come for you, your family or a loved one and send them to some hellhole that might that might help you understand that. But have fun winning your "The world has to work how I want it before I participate" award. Wasn't worth it IMO.

Learn to play the actual game or get fucked by those that already do. Good fucking luck next turn. Do not fuck up this one

You need therapy

What’s the definition of insanity again? Something about doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results?

Well, I’ve been voting “blue no matter who” for damn near 30 years now, and shit has not changed for the better. Society has changed for the better in some ways, but that is not being represented in our government.

I’m starting to think my vote for Nader was the sanest thing I’ve ever done in my civic life.

Fox news ONN types need they’re thinking done for them.

And you see no issues with this statement? You need the wake up call, you live in a hellscape that is actively making the world worse and just assume I do too. You and your american exceptionalism can go to hell. The best time to fight was before and the next best time is now.

Please do the world a favor and ether fix your shit nation or collapse already.
