  1. They can take my money, but they can never take my other stuff! TOTY Contender for sure.
  2. This is some vintage Rambo shit right here. You love you some false attribution . It was initially any honest attempt at conversation, admittedly, with some sarcasm. It became more about how you complain about the lack of constructive conversations and then nope the fuck out of most attempts. As you continue to showcase here. If you don't want to engage, fine. That's cool, I never expected it anyway. When the going gets tough the Shitty Rambo rarely gets going. But then again, what do I know. I'm white or something I guess? I suppose it's irrelevant anyway, we are voting for the same candidate.
  3. Also, come on dude. You're the first to resort to this shit while simultaneously calling out others for doing the same.
  4. Man, see, this makes me wish I didn't delete my first sentence because I thought it was a bit too personal an attack and would negate the rest of the post. Which was something along the lines of rarely bother replying to you because almost anytime the conversation moves beyond curt dismissive statements you fallback on memes or disengage anyway. But a little more snarky because internet point. I've taken to calling you Scooby Rambo in my head. "Ruh-roh Raggy, someone wheally replied. Let's get out of here!"
  5. I doubt we are even that far apart but blanket statements like that are, in my opinion, reductionist to a fault. This raises my ire. Any, or most, modalities are subject to exploitation or misuse by bad actors, either by direct manipulation or ineptitude. There are negatives and positives to socialism and examples of both in contemporary governance. The free market is a great at using innovation to increase efficiency, and that is, generally speaking, a positive. But there are plenty of examples where that has a negative impact on either the consumer or the job market. Either through the direct loss of jobs or the reduction in compensation within a given sector or vertical. I think the government has an important role to play in protecting citizens from bad corporate actors, especially in situations where the market wouldn't or wouldn't correct quickly enough. Essentially, areas where the profit motive isn't aligned with outcomes that benefit the population at large. This is not an endorsement of our current government or practices, which I think we can all agree has routinely failed us. That, to me, doesn't mean that role shouldn't exist, but rather, it is currently being poorly executed. I do think some kind of mixed economy is the best approach. Does this work or did you want to cherry-pick evidence to support my point? I'm not a huge fan of selective observation but I know how to do it.
  6. If you'll look over here kids you can see casual reductionism. It's one of the most popular fallacies!
  7. I'd expect other PO options to appear in a week or so. Band said they were forthcoming.
  8. Let's just go back to proboards. It has everything. Up votes. Down votes. Better members.
  9. Strike that. I can't like my own posts. I want the old upvote back.
  10. I'm fine with keeping things only likes if we can have a 20 member purge.
  11. Steve Aoki is the most consistent working DJ on the planet. Everything he touches, without fail, becomes garbage.
  12. He is meeting with the President of Mexico prior. I assume he is picking up the wall check. I'm hoping it's one of those giant sweepstakes checks he can bring to his speech given his recent flair for printed foamcore.
  13. Anyone taking bets on which Trump immigration policy Trump will talk about tonight?
  14. I can say something is in poor taste without being offended. I think this is stupid and poorly executed. Pun intended. But that's just my opinion and since people seem to be interested in this I'll leave you to sell to them.
  15. You don't have to be a Trump supporter to think this is in poor taste. You do have to not really understand what irony is to think this is well-executed.
