The interview I seen, he was talking about declassifying anything but the Epstein files for fear of hurting innocent people with phony stuff.

You know what. Fuck if, I’m gonna find it.

Goddamn man. Depressing. This is exactly what I expected though, and nearly lost my mind over 20 years ago.

I was so excited about technology, and then it occurred to me that it would definitely have been used by Hitler 1.0 if he’d had it, and it definitely will be used by Hitler 2.0 when the time comes.

The next big authoritarian movement will not need neighbors informing on each other. People have unwittingly prepared a dossier on themselves and handed it to the Stasi.

Man, oh man.

This comment is batshit insane and I love it.

I’m not seeing a need for correction. Not this one anyway.

My mom’s first cousin never said anything but “colored” and she traveled to Nigeria to marry her second husband who was black and spent many years with him.

Some things I heard her say, “oh they just don’t like me because my husband is colored.” “If you see a colored man in a yellow shirt that says reading rainbow on it, tell him to get to the car or I’m leaving him here.” “I’ve never seen a white man more handsome than the ugliest colored man.”

“People of color” is also pretty much the same thing, and it’s almost universally used these days. What’s the difference between person of color and colored person?

I don’t know. Language changes and evolves, and it’s definitely falling out of fashion, I’ve never personally heard “colored” as an insult. If someone wants to be insulting they generally wear their hate on their sleeve.

I have a stamp that says, “Retarded children can be helped.” and it really isn’t that old. When it came out I doubt it shocked anyone, but when I first seen it my jaw hit the floor.

I don’t. Her talent doesn’t make her anything special outside of that talent. A person can do the wrong thing for the right reasons.

Also, it happened during a time when Muslims were facing torment from the outside world because of 9/11. She wasn’t the only artist to convert to Islam during that time, but most of the ones I remember reading about at least had some potential connection to the religion through their ancestry.

Some people cannot fathom a world without religion, even when they see the destruction in what they’re familiar with. If you spend your heart fighting one enemy, it’s a lot easier to miss the crimes of the enemy next door, especially if that enemy is a perceived underdog.

Edit:

2018 is when she converted apparently, but she still would have seen and felt the post 9/11 world. I don’t know much of anything so disregard everything I said if you want to or tell me why I’m an idiot if I deserve it.

And yet, here we are.

Yeah I don’t really care for them, but free? I will Nazi or hear anyone giving me a hard time in my fake DeLorean.

So safe. So glad staying at home worked.

5 of the idiots that didn’t vote seen your comment and must have had their feelings hurt.

Good.

This is what I see.

Same as it ever was.

They’re also selling shirts that say “rewrite the rules” just under the rest of it. Oh boy.

Thousands of years of this stuff.

I’m probably just another old idiot who can’t see things for what they really are, but social media does scare the hell out of me. It’s hard to imagine it being a good thing when personalities are shaped by algorithms that exist entirely to drive engagement so a company makes a buck.

It isn’t just rich chocolaty ovaltine. The kid isn’t being brainwashed to drink a sugary drink from time to time. The kid is a constant revenue stream.

Maybe I’m stupid but I can’t find an example of this.

I’ve seen him being critical. I’ve seen him asking the president to have empathy.

I seen one bit back when he was first elected where he said to give him a chance. At that point nobody really knew what he was going to do. We were all hoping he was just being a showman to get elected.

I’m not picking a fight, I’m just genuinely asking for some evidence that he supports Trump because I can’t find it.

Kind of I guess. At first your comment made me mad, then I spent a minute thinking about it and that’s pretty much where he stood haha.

When I say he was dumb, my good lord I couldn’t come close to giving an example that would do him justice.

He was an abused kid though, and being tough meant a lot to him because that’s how he survived.

A story for fun.

My mom was very religious. Her greatest dream was to have him see the world the way that she did, and she tried, and she tried. She finally got him to go to church with her. He stopped drinking, he stopped using drugs. We were leaving church one night and going to his parents . Some of his old buddies stopped him in the road, they walked up and the one guy said, “hey Henry, what the fuck is going on, buddy?”

He said, “I’m trying to do right and raise my kids right. I would appreciate it if you didn’t cuss in front of my wife and kids.“

Dude, thought he was joking. He said, “oh bullshit, Henry going to fucking church.”

My stepdad said, “I’m going to give you one more chance before I make you regret cussing in front of my wife and kids.”

Dude said, “I don’t fucking believe this, Henry the Christian.”

My dad got out of the car and knocked every one of his front teeth out. People were fucking terrified of him. The lady across the street called the cops. The cop showed up, “Henry, we hear there’s some fighting going on down here.” My dad said, “ain’t nobody fighting here, so you can just go on up the road.”

The cop replied, “well then what happened to him?”

My dad said, “He fell.”

The dude looked at the police officer and said, “he’s right, I fell off the bridge.”

The cops pulled out and left while this dude stood here, holding his teeth and crying like a toddler.

Now in my dad’s mind, (step dad, but raised me), He was teaching us this big lesson in that moment.

Poor guy was so stupid that he didn’t realize that violence was not a lesson you teach children. I was terrified, but my brother thought he was the coolest motherfucker who ever lived in that moment. Needless to say, we took drastically different routes for a very long time in our lives.

Well, I’m 40. At that time we all thought there was something to be ashamed of. As much as it pains me to know I ever felt that way, I lived in constant humiliation like I wasn’t a real man or something.

My step dad (who I love and have a thousand reasons to defend when you look over the course of my life. He seems evil without context) also put me through it. “Daddy’s little girl” “little fag like his father”. Good lord, i type that out and he seems irredeemable, but he did redeem himself, honestly. Somehow he did. It turns out he went through the same thing, was the dumbest man I ever knew, and just wanted me to be as manly as I could be because that’s what it takes to keep from getting your head stomped in the world we come from. Believe it or not, it came from a place of love which somehow makes the trauma worse.

I don’t know. Life is long, and it’s tremendous. I heard that in a song years ago and it stuck out to me. I mean, we know it’s short, but some things make some times so so so long.

Is what it is. I have a drop dead gorgeous 10 out of 10 wife that any straight man would envy me for. I have kids who love me. This world is a beautiful place once you make your way, despite all of the ugly chaos.

My step dad loved me or he wouldn’t have walked to a crappy job every day just to buy my Christmas presents. He was just misguided and abused himself, and he wasn’t smart enough to see that. The way it was, that was just the way it was for him and he wasn’t smart enough to look at it any other way.

I am a straight man. I have lived as a straight man all my life. I have only been with women.

Yet, I was somehow bullied for being gay in high school until I just dropped out. I mean, there was more to it than that, but that was the reason I vomited when I seen the school sign.

They went through hell together remember? “Rushurusharusha” as he so often says. Was surprised that it wasn’t a big story when he went on about Putin going through a lot with him over the investigations into Russian interference. This wasn’t that long ago.
