Without resorting to categorizing an entire group of people as a "pathetic chickenshit party of cockroaches?"

But when that support comes at the cost of kids locked up in atrocious conditions, peaceful protesters gassed and beaten to clear the way for a photo op, and thousands more dying every week due to a disease that is quite containable with reasonable leadership, at the cost of overturning rules that had just begun to address the biases faced by gay, bi and transgender patients from the healthcare system, and when this is just the very most recent set of disasters and moral outrages... No, I don't think moderation and mutual respect is called for.

I will respect a group that shows similar respect for the life and liberty of others. I don't see the need to respect the choice of people who valorize, and continue to support a government that actively takes it upon itself to violate the rights and lives of the most vulnerable.

I'm curious. - 08/06/2020 06:59:18 PM 1172 Views
I would expect so, yes. *NM* - 08/06/2020 08:00:59 PM 229 Views
That yes is for which question? Or is it for both? *NM* - 08/06/2020 08:23:06 PM 234 Views
The first one. Otherwise I'd have said no and yes. *NM* - 08/06/2020 09:19:48 PM 225 Views
Yes, I believe we will... - 08/06/2020 10:15:30 PM 477 Views
Why are you so invested in either closing down the country or the seriousness of the flu? - 09/06/2020 06:37:24 PM 507 Views
Because I care about my fellow human being, cockroach. Go infest somewhere else. I'm done with you. *NM* - 09/06/2020 08:35:42 PM 239 Views
Except you don't. You really, REALLY want this disease to be worse than it is. - 12/06/2020 11:06:50 AM 474 Views
Sure. Anyone who disagrees with you wants mass poverty or mass death. No other possibility exists... - 12/06/2020 02:44:08 PM 455 Views
Fionwe same as other alt-left crazies - 16/06/2020 05:24:12 PM 492 Views

Yes, you're right. - 16/06/2020 08:17:04 PM 427 Views
You realize that's not a contradiction, right? - 16/06/2020 09:49:56 PM 452 Views

We're having a discussion...please try and not denigrate me. - 17/06/2020 05:26:36 PM 434 Views
But I didn't clearly state I want to denigrate you. You're inferring intent. How's that ok? - 17/06/2020 06:06:28 PM 444 Views
Pain and Death they *actively* choose... - 17/06/2020 06:39:13 PM 473 Views

Sigh - 16/06/2020 08:15:12 PM 425 Views
Nah I just straight up think capitalism is evil. Reparations should be paid, though. *NM* - 16/06/2020 09:22:46 AM 215 Views
