    Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

    And yes, I realize the definition of socialism is a point where this whole discussion gets muddled. In my view “socialism” means government taking hold of the means of production, or that being the end goal. I understand progressive policy is generally aimed at the regulation of the free market...

    Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

    Well perhaps I can change your perspective, because I have some very close left wing friends and I feel like after having real discussion with genuine mutual respect built over years of friendship we simply have key differences in the way we view the world. It’s really hard to see that...

    Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

    Fringe, insane, far left things I think are being increasingly seen as “common sense” by the left: Believe all women Socialism is good Transgenderism isn’t a mental illness Free speech isn’t ideal, the European model of civility and decency over liberty and freedom is ideal “Hate speech” should...

    2. What I mean is you might be somewhat diverse in that you have minute differences in how left wing you are, but you’re all reallllly far left. I grew up in that environment, it’s not like I think you’re all cRaZy LiBtArDs but I do think it’s not productive to constantly surround yourself with...

    1. I don’t know dude. I have a pretty busy work life and I genuinely don’t have time to get to know all these usernames well enough to tell you that. Also I can’t figure out how to work TapATalk so the body of my text keeps disappearing behind my keyboard so now I’m blind and I need to post again.

    Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

    [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] Do you guys ever get tired of sitting in this little circle and jerking each other off? You should really try exiting your weird little echo chamber sometime, the degree to which you’re all reinforcing each other’s increasingly delusional and fringe beliefs is kind of...

    It’s not. Leaking them to the public without any corroborating evidence is. He’s being treated by the left as a sex offender now, despite there being no evidence to suggest he is.

    Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

    The point was made that almost all sexual assault cases are he said she said, implying that the level of evidence in this case is typical of one which might garner a conviction. That’s false.

    So you’re saying because of that we should just universally believe all rape allegations and treat all accused as if they are guilty? Dude why did you rape me that one time though?

    Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

    Don’t be naive. Having your name on every news outlet ever in association with sexual assault is life changing. Having threats sent to your family is life changing. Forever being the guy who was accused of rape is life changing. People have committed suicide for less, falsely accusing someone in...

    Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

    There were plenty of inconsistencies in Ford’s story, as well as inconveniently missing details, and a multitude of other things which make her testimony seem a bit off. If she had a single person, just one, that could say that during that time period she even mentioned the party she’d be a lot...

    Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

    So at this point we’re saying that it’s rare for sexual assault allegations to be false, therefore we should just believe them all without looking for anything to corroborate them. If 2-8% of people have their lives ruined we’ll just call that collateral for having such a progressive society...

    Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

    Probably because those witnesses didn’t want to testify at the hearing and instead submitted written statements saying they didn’t know anything about the party Ford was talking about. They couldn’t exactly subpoena them, and the FBI can’t either, so they’ll get the same written statements in...

    Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

    No it wasn’t, there was a lot of other evidence brought forward, lots of witnesses called, medical evidence, and beyond that you’re talking about a man accused of murder not having the burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt met. A more accurate metaphor would be to say just like Zimmerman...

    Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

    I can’t say she’s lying, I wasn’t there, but she’s provided absolutely no evidence aside from her testimony, so no, I don’t believe that’s adequate for me to say that a well respected judge is a sex criminal. The democrats knew this accusation wouldn’t stand up to scrutiny, they put it forward...

    Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

    It’s almost as if accusing a nominee of heinous sex crimes with absolutely no evidence, then forcing him to defend himself is a rather rare occurrence. They threw the witch in the river and she floated, so now they want to burn her at the stake. If Kavanaugh hadn’t had the impassioned response...

    Dude probably, why bother arguing with me when the fact that I disagree with you makes me a terrible human being. Just bail and call me names, it’s way easier.

    If you are seriously still on this yearbook thing I would say you are delusional and so desperate for some reason to not have a conservative majority on the Supreme Court that you would find fault with Kavanaugh regardless of his integrity or actions. If he ends up being brought up on perjury...

    I have no idea what Jhmd stands for, or what you’re even talking about, but I’m flattered you feel the need to question my authenticity to try and keep me from arguing with you. For the record my real name is not in fact Turt Locker, I’m not even sure what nationality that would be, it’s...
