  1. If we go out, we go out. It will be a blustery horrible, dark nightmare, and the best team will emerge. And if that happens, I'm all in for Washington.
  2. The populists reject the label of unserious. They view serious people as being part of the elite.
  3. What an incredible game though. Individual playmaking on both sides was A treat for the eyes, and Daniels is the most incredible rookie I have ever seen. From his first game he played with unknowable confidence. A phenomenon. Goff "picked" the wrong time to throw picks. And the Detroit coach's penchant for cleverness din him in in, when a non-quarterback threw another interception when they were down. A game we'll be talking about for a long time. Poor Detroit.
  4. These are the types of sites that attend events, and then agitate to the point where they provoke security response and report on being persecuted by the police.
  5. If you think NOTHING was good, that may be a sign you're a partisan. All admins do some good.
  6. Sorry ? Majority doesn't exist ? "Ideological drives can be imposed" ... sure they can as long as your other precepts aren't contravened. Right ? Minorities do not exist ? This view of wokism and fascism doesn't seem right. Wokism hasn't been successfully defined here. The closest we got is "extreme accommodation"...
  7. It's pretty sad though. I only ever heard the matter of a sub-region complaining about carrying the nation from Albertans some of whom were indeed separatist-minded. It's kind of like a couple, when they start talking like this about money.
  8. Business is also an arts degree. So is architecture, psychology.. remember, Jordan Peterson was a psych professor. Arts degrees demand a general approach, research and so on. There's value there. The engineering programs I'm most familiar with consists of 4 years of solving puzzles in different areas. Same with computer science. I would say one of the ills of society is we don't have enough leaders who can see the big picture, and actually lead us. Anyway, don't quote culture, war fodder as evidence of social trends... It really undercuts your argument.
  9. Why do you respond to me? Why do you presume to know where I'm going to vote? Continues to be strange thing for me to encounter.
  10. Well ok. Clearly they need to make big changes whoever wins. I'm not fond of the lowest common denominator style of campaigning, nor do I like "good people vote for us"
  11. I have prayed there. I'm not ashamed... Humanity lurches forward sometimes by, and sometimes in spite of religion. You will always find more people to agree on basic humanistic points than cultural dictates of any religion. And in my experience, most religious people are humanists and very tolerant.
  12. Maybe but so far " he is trolling" is the only defense of his actions from the pro MAGAs on here.
  13. In other words..... You've made up an idea of what I am and are now demanding that I be you, or be your version of me... Why? Why do you even care?
  14. It's really quite something. How much you think you know me...
  15. I use it in the abstract, as in "the ignorant". What I love is when someone says "HEY YOU ARE MAKING FUN OF ME!!" Me??
  16. Well... that's like saying "If I don't offer to blow sailors then only 1 person a day talks to me" I don't need that kind of traffic, sailor...
  17. Maybe I would, Maybe I wouldn't. I don't feel like I'm isolated at all... Anyway, enjoy...
  18. Aw. Sad puppy. It showed up in your feed ? Awsome thanks.
  19. Is there a way to make my CLUB posts appear in the feed of new items ? It feels like nobody will notice there unless they look ?
  20. Just a bystander here, who revels in discussions about taxonomy and also loves epistemic bugaloos. 1. Did you call someone transphobic though ? Seems from #2 you did. 2. Do you think that the term is pejorative ? I don't think "racist" is, and actually had my mind turned by intelligent posters on here who thoughtfully proclaimed themselves to be 'racist'. Ok then.... But I do think 'ignorant' is pejorative because it implies a refusal to grow. Help me out.
  21. No. Only 49.9% https://www.google.com/search?q=popular+vote+percentage+2024+us+election&oq=popular+vote+percentage+2024+us+election&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOdIBCDc1MDdqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
  22. Or, better, how to discern the difference between cultural obstacles and what men / women 'naturally' gravitate to ? I was reminded of the latter consideration when people were explaining why there are more men in positions of power, positions where physical strength and agression are required etc. I feel that idealogues of left/right have to bend themselves into Gumby impersonators when trying to resolve principles of masculine/feminine "freedom" versus biological programming. First step in the conversation might be trying to figure out who can actually discuss the topic without convulsing
