If you want to shut a Trumpkin down, you have to pick a detail and press them to explain it. I read a long diatribe a couple of days ago in which the author several times called De Blasio a communist. He boasted that libs never had an answer and always run away to hide. I asked him what his definition of a communist was (because they love to equivocate-always ask what they think a term means first) and how the Mayor met that definition. The guy never showed his face in the thread again.
Trumpster: Libs are evil, BLM is evil, Hillary is evil, Obama and Michelle are evil, protesters are rioters and evil, (fill in the blank) is evil, SOCIALISTS! COMMUNISTS!
Me: Trump floated the idea of delaying the election.
Trumpster: WHY ARE YOU SO FULL OF HATE!
I don’t normally post politics on FB, but I posted a link to the story from The Hill so my Trumpist acquaintances would have to at least skim over the headline.
I was in an on-line conversation with a “devout” Christian. She literally typed “I don’t care about poor people.” I thanked her for letting me know where she stood on the issue.
Well, if it doesn't exist, then it doesn't exist. I've bought enough Texas vodka to say I that I've tried to support liquor production in the Lone Star State even without buying any bourbon.
I want to find a Texas bourbon to mix Manhattans and sours...trying to get some Texas product on my shelf. Lots of choices at Total wine but no help from the store associate. Suggestions?
I guess counselors can meet with students outside. Nurses need to be packing full PPE, and it would be best to move the school clinic to an outside portable.
It was a poll, not any kind of study.
37% responded that they thought HCQ was the most effective treatment
When I pointed out to someone on our local FB group that meant that 63% of those that responded did not think it was the most effective treatment, he blew a gasket and accused me of twisted logic.
I believe the doctor speaking is an ant-Baxter from Colorado. Her message has come up before on social media. I looked up her credentials at the time, but couldn’t find her name this morning.
Future historians are going to find a black hole of information on this administration. “We can’t be sure because the Trump administration kept few records, but we can speculate that...”
When I use the term conservative, I'm thinking conservative thinker, not Conservative as in George Will. Part of conservative thinking is placing the health of the hive over the health of individual bees. And there is nothing wrong with that, just as there is nothing wrong with liberal thought that prioritizes the opposite. The problem we have in this country is the breakdown of communication between the two sides, which is a tragedy because a healthy and prospering society needs to find a balance between both.
