Conservatism

[m76]

Yet you would prohibit one seekin to exit life on their own terms. Weird.

It's called empathy, you should try it. I value their lives more than to allow them to throw it away at a whim.

If valuing human life is conservatism, then the above poster might be right about the current liberal side not having values.

Essential to valuing human life is the understanding that others' lives are their own. This is anathema to conservatism and religious fundamentalism.

You do know that the line on the right is moving further to the right. If you're center, you'll still be center regardless of how far either side moves.

Also, using "woke" to describe anything is just cringy.

If you move one end of a line, the center moves too, The right side didn't move in the picture, if you hadn't noticed.

woke is a pejorative term for radical leftists who consider themselves the champions of "oppressed" minorities, yet more often than not they are more racist/sexist/bigoted than the average conservative.

Gosh.

You are right I'm not that liberal to look the other way when someone is self harming or suicidal. Allowing people to wail in hurt and kill themselves is not valuing human life. The exact reason I want to intervene is because I think their premature demise would be a loss.

Both ends of the line moved though, like extremely so. I mean your own government has continued its slide into right-wing kleptocracy, especially with Orbán.

And I know what "woke" means, it's just stupid and cringy the way it's used.

My concern isn't the unwillingness to look away, it's the tendency toward despotism when advocating for prohibition.

Ah, Hungary. I had one of the Middle Eastern nations. How is it you've come to know this about them?

I was a bit peckish so I went looking for Turkey, but the only stuff left was covered in Greece so I just passed and chose not to eat. It was only then I knew how Hungary I really was.

Seriously though, I've only really taken to learning about Hungary since Russia decided to show the world how laughable their military is. Orbán loves himself some Putin.

I'll take the blame for miscommunication.

How is it you've come to understand @m76 is from Hungary?

Derp. It doesn't show that on mobile. I've seen their posts on the computer but never took notice of that particular thing, it seems.

Ah.



Seems to me that fat mother****er also isn't one to "self-censor."

Have you not been paying attention? More than half of the Republican Party supported it and it was almost certainly led, in part, by Trump himself. If you can't see that, based on others I've had this exact conversation with, I'm afraid nothing I can say will bring you back from the delusional world you now live in.

Also, pro-tip since I know this is kicking around in your mind, you can still be conservative while thinking Trump is a lightweight fascist and that most of the current Republican Party just wants authoritarianism. Also, if you hate Trump you don't automatically like Biden or vote Democrat. I can't remember the last Democrat I voted for but I do know the last Republican I voted for because it was last November. Finally, you can think the GOP supports failed policies without thinking the DNC's policies are good.

Pro tip, you're brainwashed. The J6 committee is a sham. Why no Republicans on it? Chaney and Crybaby are just like you. Insurrection or coup with no arms? LoL. Of course other Republicans supported Trump. The media baldface lied for 4 years. Trump is a mini Fascist? OMG! Obama spied on reporters, Biden starts a ministry of truth, Twitter,run by libs, bans the sitting POTUS! This thread is a joke. I know Gran Turismo is a game, but wow the amount soft skulls in it is amazing.

I live in one of the most conservative states in the US that suppress women's rights, calls gays abnormal, & as of just recently, wants the Voting Rights Act of 1965 repealed.

Sexism, bigotry, & racism, all in one state's governing party, but yeah, the average "woke" person is even worse.

TDS is a real mental illness.

Pro tip, you're brainwashed.

Deflect what you are guilty of to your foe.

Always rely on a conservative to put both feet in their own ****.

Your lips are stained orange, aren't they?

Pro tip: They asked Republicans to join the committee. They didn't wanna. That's why.

Trump said it was a 'foolish' decision for the GOP to not be represented on the January 6 panel. He and Republican lawmakers rejected a bipartisan commission last year.

Trump said it was a bad call for Republicans "not to have representation on that committee" but denounced a bipartisan commission last year.

Of course they are.

A quick Google search would answer one of his questions, but his Lord forbids one to seek any word but his own.

The insurrection caused the evacuation and lockdown of the U.S. Capitol. Five people died. One Capitol Hill Police officer was killed and approximately 81 members of the Capitol Police and 58 members of the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department sustained injuries – officers were trampled, struck with a bat, pinned against a statue, hit with a fire extinguisher, sprayed with bear spray, and pushed down stairs, among several other violent acts. A number of the insurrectionists were armed leading to seizures of weapons and arrests on weapons charges. In addition, police discovered pipe bombs placed near the headquarters of the RNC and DNC. Monitoring of the event picked up individuals from a number of well-known extreme right groups in the crowd.

The attack on the U.S. Capitol is the latest—not the first, nor the last—demonstration of the danger armed extremism poses to our democracy.

😂 Seriously.

Yes, seriously. Although just in case you don't know what words mean...

Definition of COUP

coup d'état; a brilliant, sudden, and usually highly successful stroke or act… See the full definition

Again, just because it failed in spectacular fashion doesn't make it something else, kind of like running for a second term in office.

Why no Republicans on it?

There's 2, including the vice-chair of the committee...

Nobody forced you to come into this section and nobody is forcing you stay in it. Although I have a feeling you're heading down the path of not having an option one way or the other...

Also, you'd be surprised at how many users of this forum don't play Gran Turismo or even video games in general.

No. They put two on it. Pelosi replaced them with two anti Trump Rinos. Get your facts right. The bias a so obvious.

Where do you live? It's a known fact. The minority leader, McCarthy, put Jordan and Banks on the committee.

 

[Northstar]

Source?

McCarthy put forward 5, Pelosi rejected 2 and as a result McCarthy just threw a fit and withdrew all his selections.

No, we don't.

Nor me, as you just seem to be parroting self-evidently false tripe to push a ridiculous agenda and are being pretty insulting in the process.

Grow up, please.

Really? False? You seem to be very allowing of others tripe. I hear the warning, but I'd expect the same to the rest. Or remove a thread that would cause heated debate.

 

[TexRex]

This is fantastic. The Trumpers who once frequented this subforum mostly noped the **** out and I've kind of missed the inane caterwauling.

 

[Famine]

Really? False?

Extremely. Aside from denying one of the most self-incriminatingly filmed events in recorded history, you're just making stuff up and shifting the goalposts when called on it, parroting an incorrect (and deliberately so) narrative floated by the single sorest bunch of losers the world has ever seen - many of whom are now clambering over each other to distance themselves from it in much the same way a colossal mischief of rats oozes out of danger.


You even just made something up about this site's staff...

Or remove a thread that would cause heated debate.

Why? Debate is fine. Heated debate is fine. They are not the problem. The problem is people making stuff up and being abusive. And yes, they will be removed.


Keep it civil, or leave.

Ok. Like a good Borg. Assimilate. Only one opinion is acceptable. Got it. What exactly did I make up? Because I see a lot of inaccurate reports and biased stories posted.
