After all this time, you still think you know how i'd feel if only this, if only that?


I'm so, so stupid
Yes. Not because you can’t, you just won’t. Even when things are obvious, you still refuse to see it. So you stick to the left wing talking points like the good sheep you’ve been conditioned to be.

Nothing I’ve said is false.

Here and there. Sketchy af.
That guy is probably going to have to sell the team to pay off his debt. Probably going to jail for the insurance stuff. And he’s probably caused a lockout for next season. Quite the run. But he got 2 World Series out of it, I guess.

I really hope they don’t win it again this year.

EDIT:

Just saw this one…

Oh, I just won't. Okay.
Things are obvious to everyone equally, if they'd just look at everything in the only way you know how to look at anything.
There are left-wing talking points about how fallacious your logic is, about what the dictionary defines bigotry as? What the US Constitution says? What the Bible says? Those are all left-wing talking points?

I had to go back to the last page to remind myself of what you're even talking about this time because it's always the same smug, oblivious, ironically condescending platitudes about sheep and refusing to see things that are soooo apparent to everyone with any common sense because everyone with any common sense thinks exaaaaaactly the same way... but I'm the sheep.

Lots of things you say are opinions you push as facts, meaning they are inherently false.

Thats true, some are opinions. Some are things that maybe can’t be proven by a stat, but doesn’t make them false. Like saying Biden was the worst President. Yeah it can be argued by stats maybe, but the man never led us. Never. So how can he be considered anything but the worst when he was limped along his entire term? Covid is another one, or the way we were treated by Fauci. Sounds like opinion until you sit back and honestly look at it fairly. We were severely lied to, where it came from, and they really fabricated the numbers, particularly the deaths. You call these opinions because of the different views from the so called ‘experts.’ and the media.

I say most of their views are from being bought. You say in general yeah people have been compromised. But you never agree when time after time it’s brought up. You sound almost exactly like any left wing site. You’re a lot of things Datt, but fair isn’t one of them.

When you present opinion as fact, you are inherently wrong. It doesn't even matter if facts emerge later confirming your opinion. Your process was flawed. It's like math class where you don't show your work. You don't get credit for guessing. Or to use an example you may understand better, if you don't give a customer an itemized receipt, it doesn't matter if the price was reasonable and the work was fine; you could still get reported, investigated, possibly penalized. Or taxes. You can't just send the IRS a check for the correct amount; you have to show the work. If you're audited, you have to show itemization.

What you are claiming about President Biden makes it glaringly obvious to anyone who knows anything that you don't know history. If you knew history, you would know that President William Henry Harrison took sick shortly after his inauguration and died one month into his presidency. He is the most nothingest-of-accomplishments POTUS ever. If you knew history, you would know that President James Buchanan did nothing to even attempt to address the impending Civil War. He is a frequent choice as the worst POTUS ever. If you knew history, you would know that President Andrew Johnson completely derailed Reconstruction following the Civil War, leading to 100 more years of legal oppression of Black people in this country. He is neck-and-neck with Buchanan for worst POTUS ever. If you knew history, you would know that President Warren G Harding was oblivious to the most corrupt administration we've ever seen*. He is often considered the most incompetent POTUS ever.

I've given you a list several times of 10 US Presidents all considered worse than Biden by experts across the political spectrum -- repeat, across the political spectrum. You have no counterargument. You don't know enough to have a counterargument. All you ever have is scoffing sarcastically about "experts" and claiming the eye test is good enough. You think I'm arrogant intellectually? You think academics are arrogant? There is nothing to match the arrogance of the uninformed and uneducated. The more I know, the more I realize I don't know, and that leads to caution, humility. You? You are steeped in the arrogance of the ignorant. You can't fathom knowledge beyond what you're capable of yourself. That's part of why you make so many hyperbolic, superlative statements about how anybody with any sense will blah, blah, blah, and how anyone who thinks anything different from you is the dumbest, the most evil, a total sheep, as bad as a pedophile. Your brand of stupid is one of -- repeat, one of, as in not tnecessarily he absolutely mostest-est-est ever-ever -- one of the most dangerous types there is, mac, because it is overconfident and self-righteous in its stupidity.

Imagine me trying to argue tires with you, mac. That's how dumb you sound trying to argue this stuff. The only difference is that I know better and stay in my lane. You don't.

(*Credible historians know that it is too soon to judge Trump 47, Biden, Trump 45, and even Obama. It sometimes takes decades to see the impact of a President. That's why Woodrow Wilson and Ronald Reagan's stars have faded. It's why Truman's and Nixon's reps have improved. It's why even the most conservative of credible historians knows it's too soon to even consider Biden for worst ever.)

It's not just a wild, non thought out opinion Datt. Since I sell tires though, I can't possibly have any clue about what has gone on. According to you, I should just stay in my lane. I didn't rate Obama or either Bush as the worst. I don't think neither of them were good though. For different reasons. Bush for the Iraqi war, and Obama for actually making the division in our country worse when he could have done a better job at uniting everyone. That was by design, but we can talk about that later. I'm not arguing with how bad some of the others might have been. Yeah, I agree that time will tell on our more current Presidents.

If done fairly though, Biden has to go to the front of the line. I won't hold my breath though because of how slanted our news is today. That's where I keep harping on your comments about "admitting a lot of people are compromised." They're nothing more than empty words from you. You put way more trusts in all these experts, whether it's medical or historical, than I do. But go ahead though and say "yes Mac, I've already acknowledged how compromised many are, blah blah blah... Other than the other two libs here, we know you don't really mean it.

Who fact checks the fact checkers? And how can you get any credible info to be put out there about Biden, or even Obama, when in essence, the people giving out most of the information nowadays are slanted heavily to the liberal side?

So basically what we have had going on for quite a while is the FOXES ARE GUARDING THE HEN HOUSE. Which circles back to my entire complaint Datt. The system is rigged, and you refuse to see it.

The liberals refuse to think the media is slanted to the left. I’ve seen a lot of censorship when it comes to outspoken Christians. I’ve done a little research on Muslims and I have to agree with Mac about being concerned about them holding political positions. Their true colors will start to show as they continue to grow in numbers.

Anyone that's not at least concerned with Muslims in political positions has their head in the sand. The sample size is small (Omar, Ellison, Mamdani) but these are some dangerous individuals. Sorry, call me what you want, but we can't allow them to have any major control in this country.

just curious.....its only 3, but what has each done that makes them so dangerous, other than differing political views

They aren’t just different, they’re extremely radical. Ellison and Omar have already proven themselves to be quacks, but dangerous ones at that.

Just curious, do you not think so?

Quacks in regards to having opposing views from you...you've used dangerous; quacks and extremely radical.....i think they have differing views than you, but not the adjectives you have chosen...anything done that should deem them unfit, unqualified, immoral other than being a practicing Muslim...???

Democrat, Socialist, and Muslim. The trifecta. If that ain’t about as good a description for being a radical, quack, unfit… they’ll never be one.

It’s pretty simple. First, I don’t agree with the thinking of Democrats. Second, being an admitted Socialist. These two alone are worthy of not wanting them. Now throw in being a Muslim. What’s to explain?

@Ghost of Dattier and @BOOGIEMAN1914. Would you support a southern man with a beard that is a hard core Conservative? Do you need more than that for you to disqualify him?

:ROFLMAO:
"What's to explain"? You're rushing through whatever "explanation" you're giving with as little detail as possible because it absolutely won't hold up under scrutiny and saying/typing it in the open reveals your bigotry.

Let's take those things one at a time... they're Democrats. I get that you disagree with Democrats, just like I disagree with many of them and with basically all Republicans. Is that a determinatiuon of fitness? If they don't agree with you, they're unfit? That would make sense, based on your base dichotomy of everyone into people with common sense on the one side and stupid people on the other side. You have no respect for people you disagree with. It's too hard for you to hold those 2 ideas at once -- disafgreement and respect. I'm willing to give people a pass on that once or twice. Shoot, I struggle with it myself sometimes. But when that is your default and you dig your heels in every time, never backing off to admit hyperbole and concede that there are decent people worthy of respect who you disagree with, that earns you a defining label. It's not name-calling, and it's no longer addressing isolated behavior. It's the product of what you habitually do, and the label for that is idiot. And any other conservative here with any integrity will admit the same: if you can't respect people with whom you disagree, it's a sign of weak thiniking.

Socialist? Do you understand the difference between a socialist and a Democratic Socialist? There is a difference. It would be right in line with your weak thinking to claim they're the same. No point getting any deeper into this unless you can demonstrate understanding of the difference because it would be lost on you.

Muslim... say one randomly prejudicial thing and what you said was bigoted. Do it to the point of habit and it defines you. You are a bigot, mac. You're a bigot, a traitor to American values, and a heretic to the mission of Christ. You've repeated this so many times, so adamantly, so unapologetically, that you shouldn't even deny it. I've told you all of this before and you've basically said "so be it." And you're a coward and a snowflake if you whine about name-calling when you're given the label you earned and deserve.

I need less than that. I'm an often bearded Southern man, so those certainly aren't disqualifying. Hardcore conservative is all by itself. I do not agree with conservative political goals, including abortion rights, gun control, social programs, freedom from religion, well-funded public schools for everyone, making sure historically underrepresented people are given more opportunity, believing science, respecting and accepting people of different races, ethnicities, nationalities, religions, sexual orientations, gender identities, abilities or lack thereof, and more. Conservatives don't. I won't vote for any conservative when all of those things and more are still on the line.

And I bet you don't even see the difference between how I explained myself and how you 'explained' yourself.

Haha. What’s to explain? I find it laughable that you’re defending these quacks.
When you can't defend or explain the labels you put on others, it's just name-calling, bigot.

I didn't defend a thing. I clowned your ignorance.

Still can't define socialist vs democratic socialist, huh?
