You know someone is a moron if they say "pro-abortion." That's not the stance...

what if i'm pro abortion because i think fetuses are parasites?

that just makes you a sociopath, not pro-choice

that's why i didn't say i was pro choice

[adr-admin]

Similarly, I don't care for it when people say "anti-choice".

I'm sure some people actually are about oppressing women, but I doubt that's common; most people sincerely see it as killing babies. And hell, even if it is, are you going to convince anyone with flamebait?

(but then again, I don't care much for "pro choice" and "pro life" either. Both of them are too general, but meh at least context works that out.)


Just consider this though: "you want to take away a woman's right to choose!" Look at it from their perspective: you're god damned right they want to take away the right to choose murder!

so it's like they are talking past each other.

yeah, i don't like that approach either

it's usually easier to get them to admit that they don't really care about the fetuses, they just want to punish women for being immoral

of course the easiest way to do that, is to ask them what they should do with the women who get abortions if it weren't legal

"I object to any efforts to place hard caps on degree programs because I believe, personally, in dissociating education from economics and making it more a question of learning for its own sake. "

hilariously, given my college stances, i agree


that's why i actually did a physics thing when i went to the state university of new york at oswego

i was already a decent enough programmer at the time that i figured i'd prolly just get by on that regardless and physics is cool

alas the university atmosphere sucks my ass and i just wanted to go home so i did



perhaps this is why i'm so angry at the college thing btw. people tell you it guarantees a job and all kinds of shit, but that makes it into a financial argument rather than a philosophical one (i know i'm not using that word the way it really should be used but doesn't it come from greek for "love of knowledge"?)

[Zod]

meh the 'guaranteed job' thing hasn't been true for at least 10 years

especially if you're any kind of artsy fartsy major

it used to be a high school diploma guaranteed you a job

these days? hahahahaha fuck that

[adr-admin]

or is that love of wisdom? i think gnosis is knowledge


MAYBE IF YOU STAYED IN SCHOOL YOU'D SPEAK GREEK

yeah well fuck you buddy besides yo hablo mucho espanol y espanol es vivo ahora


ps my spanish actually sucks ass. duh lol.

I have to wonder if Uhura in The Other Reality or whatever MA calls it will have forgotten most of the shit she doesn't need to use regularly by the end of her career.

My dad tells me that has been his experience, but then his education was free THANKS MENZIES

batmang seems to be biased against Gundam

even though he knows nothing about it

who needs knowledge when you have shep

[Aaron]

Its because of mechs.

[starku]

It's a laugh because moving in space just takes time

Getting into space needs a giant huge rocket

But y'know it's batman so...

I capitalised gundam for emphasis but he may think that's how it's written lol

None of these accusations have been vetted by any independent finders of fact in the slightest (and the list has been criticised precisely on the grounds that it lacks standards of evidence and transparency for placing people on the list).

Which is irrelevant to deciding whether or not nations may rely upon the list as being true, which (in fact) they must, in accordance with the UN Charter.

facts don't matter, member states must rely on UNSC resolutions as being absolutely true and act accordingly

well, i guess israel doesn't count lol

[Losonti Tokash]

man i love threads like hpca, ows, or the costume thing because people just can't fucking help themselves but throwing out their repulsive opinions because they feel they've been personally slighted by someone saying "nah this is not cool"

well that and hpca quotes show us the true side of some of the sdn posters that are still around

i take it you've never seen ossus defending fun stuff like racial profiling and tsa strip searches before

or arizona's insane immigration practices

i kinda wonder what it would take for some of them to really unleash the crazy- like, starglider may be one bad day away from climbing the local water tower with a megaphone and yelling about socialists, duchess may be willing to post about how opposed she is to democratic government by being a misanthropic eltitist, but i wonder whether the dam could ever break and we could get some real good rants. i do love shep not taking thirty seconds to look into OWS before talking about them, though

[Gands]

The best Duchess rant I ever saw was after the 2006 election when the Democrats took control of congress.

A Muslim SUPERATTACK was imminent, and a Democratic congress was going to sign a 99 year peace deal with Islam, because that's how it works apparently. But after that they'd kill America.

Oh how I wish HPCA wasn't all missing and archived.

well there weren't any graphs about ows available yet

[starku]

Zeon is best because she went too extreme, had to backpedal by blaming it all on her desire to be like timmy,then vanished only to return to say stupid shit like 'I identify with therussian arisotcracy' and 'do as i say'

But she was only super authoritarian becuase of some guy right?

[Gands]

To be fair, Shep used to repost a lot of social commentary from Stu. Since that brand was discredited, he's stuck for words.

[Questor]

Were you trolling Los, or was that just a moment of failed comprehension? EDIT: I'm specifically referring to your comment to KS.

[Mr.Coffee]

Yeah, because racism is totally fucking wrong, man! Unless you're being racist towards white people, amirite? Because those silly crackas can't possibly be discriminated again.

Dude, you and Bakustra are basically saying that one form of stereotype is wrong, but the other is not, because... White people can't be discriminated against. Seriously, that's one of the lamest memes on SDN. Knock it off and ditch your high horse.

[Dooey Jo]

i didn't realise white trash were yet inbred enough to be considered their own race by americans rather than a socio-economic class
