buncha wet bugs and some noodly fellas

Your valid points are greeted with transient goalposts and originally misrepresented ideas, unintentionally of course.

My favorite tactic is when they ask you a question, and then repeat a snarky response, loudly, as you try to answer. But if you get angry for having your buttons pushed, you’re the problem.

What would have been discussions in a bygone era have now become dunk-a-thons. Ideas and opinions are no longer meant to be shared and debated for the betterment of all, but to be wielded to discredit and shame. Empathy and concern have been replaced by rage and confusion, an environment where no learning can ever take place.

From what I’ve noticed, even if the opposition has a valid point, it’s buried under so much aggresion that the average person refuses to concede a point for three reasons:

(1) They know the opposition will not concede anything in return, because how could they possibly be wrong? Your opinion is wrong simply for not being theirs, and you aren’t worthy of respect for it. They will forever have a point on the board, and you will never have one, so why give them the satisfaction?

(2) They don’t want to admit to the opposition being right in any regard due to not wanting to overinflate their already stretched ego

(3) The point you concede will be used against you, out of context, repeatedly, as a dig.

Something, something, pigeons playing chess. It’s better not to engage. They’re all trolls.

Damn, I feel like Speed just came out, but they dropped that album back in '19.

Perhaps not, they could be selling it on the side. Arrest their competitors, sieze their product, sell it to their customers, blame Master Splinter.

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

No, no, of course not. I can see how you can come to the conclusion, but the distinctions could not be more apparent. Don’t be silly. Calm down, and lay down at the bottom, and you’ll see how wrong you are. Just stop crying and get in the hole. No, you can’t hold my hand. Get in the hole.

I can’t wait for the Johns Hopkins-tenured, Washington Post opinion piece, telling us how this is actually a good thing.

I think it’s where you dig a hole in woods, and just lay in it.

Look at that stupid lip bite. This dude has no heroes, he’s constantly the coolest guy he knows.

Spoken like a typical N’wah.

The issuance of these pardons should not be mistaken as an acknowledgment that they engaged in any wrongdoing, nor should acceptance be misconstrued as an admission of guilt for any offense

They didn’t do anything wrong, but were also pardoned for their non-wrongdoing. Makes sense.

I’m assuming a hair removal laser, but I may be incorrect. Perhaps this person is a fan of laser bowling. We may never know.

Us Vs. Them works best the less is actually known about Them.

I argued with a few .world libs about how a political party had convinced them that genocide was not only acceptable, but defendable as well.

I told them that they were going to vote for genocide, and still lose. I told them they would never be clean again.

All they told me was “lesser of two evils”, and “trans genocide”, despite the very real shrapnel-ridden and charred child corpses they were seeing, in real time.

Now they get to live as losers three times over. The election, their stance on genocide, and we all lost when trump was elected. I know that losing the election and trump winning may be argued as a single point, but I see just the Harris loss as one point, and trump being elected a significant enough of an event as to be considered it’s own point.

We’ll get to sit and watch when the dems learn nothing from the Harris failures, and the problems from 2016, as they rig their own primaries again for 2028. At least then Harris will be right about nothing fundamentally changing.

Consider how dumb the average person is. Half of them are dumber than that.
