Only fawning praise adds to the conversation

"Criticism = incel" is a great, quick litmus test for identifying shitty people.

The irony is that the vast majority of people who use "incel" as an insult also tend to dissonantly believe that value judgments of women based on virginity are immoral, lol.

The fans of it are the ones who are weird to me--I've never wanted to watch a single episode of that shit.

You all showed them there's a market for it, don't call them weird for giving you all what you all wanted, lol.

Women can’t be president in America. We have a shitty culture that prevents that from happening. We keep trying, we keep failing.

Tried twice with two exceptionally shitty candidates. Blaming Hillary and Harris's losses on their sex is a massive cop-out. Trump should have been destroyed in every election he ran in, but the only time he lost was with the weight of a worldwide pandemic working against him, and even then, he wasn't exactly blown out of the water.

A woman can definitely be president in America. But as long as people like you blame the losses on that, the actual reasons these candidates are losing will never be fixed.

It's time to take some accountability.

That's not relevant.

Whether you don't pay your debts by choice or not, the fact remains that not paying them demonstrates that you are risky to lend to. It makes perfect sense for people to not want to lend you more money if you didn't pay back what you borrowed before.

Downvote all you like, but that's the fact of the matter. Getting rid of credit scores will change nothing for people who don't repay their debts, but it will harm those who do, because good borrowers won't be able to prove that they have a history of repaying their debts, and will therefore be treated as greater risks than they actually are.

Every time I see someone complaining about Babylon Bee and I go take a peek at their front page, I find several funny headlines--pretty sure the criticism is way overblown, and it's just another silly parody news website.

On their front page right now:

  • Apple Warns China Tariffs Could Negatively Impact Child Slave Employment Opportunities
  • Get A Load Of This White-Knighting SIMP Saving A Princess From A Dragon
  • Texas Bans Sale Of Assault Rifles With Capacity Of Less Than 30 Rounds
  • Republicans Vow To Get Really Serious About Cutting Spending In Like 20 Or 30 Years

Credit scores are objectively beneficial for everyone except people who don't pay their debts.

Downvoting doesn't make it not true.

The incessant purity testing is completely exhausting and aggravatingly frustrating.

I can understand not everyone wants to be an educator, especially of more ignorant people but when people say this I do wonder why they are even talking.

Exactly. If you're not willing to try and educate someone you disagree with, insulting them is no substitute (in fact it's pretty much the worst course of action re the presumed desired result), just keep quiet, or alternatively go talk to others who already agree with you so you can stroke each other's egos, lol.

I have a feeling that if you saw this sentence written by someone else with any other country substituted, you'd realize immediately that it's bigoted horse shit.

Well, guess what? Your question isn't an exception.

As for #1, my name for him is HitlerPig
My alternate name for him is Agent Krasnov

'Alternate names' are infantile and asinine. Why not just call him 'doodyhead' while you're at it?
