You never know when you’ll find yourself in a position where there are 20 choices and you just can’t decide.

Didn’t be so hard on yourself, that was extremely useful.

100% and it takes a pretty shallow view to think otherwise.

Is the US uniquely racist compared to the rest of the world? I feel that answer is no, while also knowing that this place is fucked up at times.

Anecdotally, I’ve seen a good lot of houses with local Republican candidates that don’t have Trump signs. Some only have Trump signs.

I had made a comment a while back about only seeing Trump signs outside of my Iowa community. Almost immediately after I said that, there were a good chuck of Democratic signs starting to pop up, which is way more than the one or two I had seen previously.

I don’t know that I’ve seen crazy amounts of flipping or anything like that, but it was a noticeable difference that I wasn’t specifically looking for.

I do think that what I remember seeing.

No, the content of the article has no merit because of the source. Nothing is verifiable and the source has strong Russian ties. Russia, who is known for spreading false information, called “propaganda”. I would suggest looking that word up, because you don’t seem to know what it is or how it works.

I never claimed otherwise. I just explained why I hate them.

I don’t think it was a gaffe at all. It may have been a Freudian slip, but he said what he meant. I’m disappointed he back tracked and Harris supported that, but such is the game of politics.

Here’s the deal, I truly don’t give a fuck about these people that call me. If they stick around long enough to hear me, that’s on them. If they cry because of what I say, I don’t care. I really truly believe that uninvited solicitation is one of the scummiest things that’s considered acceptable, and everyone that’s a participant can fuck off. I’m an unrepentant asshole because I fucking hate them. There’s your reason.

I gave you the benefit of the doubt that you had a genuine question, but I now feel that was a mistake.

Oh man… I’m gonna be so concerned in 1-2 millions years that my house will be underwater.

Kim, playing the long game.

I gave you plenty of good reasons for being an asshole. Idgaf if that person’s only job prospect was a pollster, because the position as it exists is inherently intrusive and should be legal. I have absolutely zero remorse for being an asshole to the asshole that’s bugging me. Maybe if I’m shitty enough, they’ll report me and they’ll put me on a do not call list.

If you want to cater to them, more power to you, but I’m not here to care about the feelings of the asshole that’s bugging me.

Anyone can decide what gender they feel like. Most people identify with one of the major genders, but many people don’t for multiple possible biological reasons. Nobody is in good faith identifying as a gender they don’t actually feel like.

Have I not seen picture of the Obamas cruising around after his terms? This one’s a new one for me and is a fun fact.

It’s not hard. Stay the fuck out of my personal space and time, and I won’t lambast you for invading my personal space and time. Nobody made a pollster call me, or a religious nut solicit me at my residence. If I’m in a public place and someone approaches me, I say no thanks and move on, but that curtousy ends when at personal space.

Lol ok. Keep up the good work, comrade.

No. I want the people that interfere with my me time to know how worthless I think they are. They didn’t get that if I hang up.

I agree that there are too many commercials, especially in sports. However, commercials an ads are what keep shows on TV, unless you’re paying for a service, which is still mostly funded by ads, but it’s grosser.

I didn’t like commercials, and I almost never watch live TV, but I understand their existence as a means for the product to exist for “free”.

If the frequency was less, the volume wasn’t double that of every show, and political ads weren’t allowed or at least limited, TV would be a much happier place.

If sometime like the US or multiple EU countries decided to go boots on the ground in Ukraine, what would be an expected response from the region/Russian allies?

I can’t imagine China would want to get directly involved, but maybe I’m wrong. Everyone outside looking in can see that Russia isn’t a super power without the threat of nukes. Who would want to risk everything to support someone like that? What would be the benefit of these different countries to try and intervene on Russian behalf?

It’s probably more simple, like, everyone in that area hates the US, which in itself might be enough reason to get involved. I’m just curious what’s the general consensus is on this.
