And what does that mean?

In lay terms, without referring to graphics, what does that mean? ELI5, please? People keep saying left and right like it means something.

The circus is the US. The ringmaster is in DC. We all live in the circus, surrounded by clowns and lions, but if you set the tarp on fire, we all burn. We need a new circus.

And yet, it wasn't explained how Democrats are conservatives, whatever that means. I just hear Republicans are conservative, now this one rando is saying Dems are conservative, what does that even mean, anymore? What does democrat or republican mean if they are being accused of being the same? How are they the same?

Elaborate, please? How are Democrats Republicans, and if they aren't, what is the difference? I genuinely don't understand.

Why? Shit floats.

While I consider dude a gender neutral term, if someone asked me to stop calling them dude, I would, as it is respectful to them.

Did you know: Puberty blockers cause ZERO harm to children, and to reverse the effects, which will allow puberty to continue its course, just stop the medicine!

This adolescent person that is nearly the age of majority will now have to suffer anxiety, body image issues, potential suicidal and self-harm ideation, and general misery, because the a person decided that what this other person was doing for self care, and to improve their mental health, was wrong. I'm so glad these lawmakers with NO BIAS and MEDICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL KNOWLEDGE are making laws, that are obviously not for any agenda and hurting nobody in particular, because trans people like me aren't actually real people and shouldn't be allowed to be comfortable in their own body.

What do you mean "excuses to permit yourself to date?" Have you just... not have had therapy for your abusive nature? How do you deal with your "idea of having dominance" in public/at work? You wanted to be dominant over girls when you were, like, 4?

In short, what?

Look, I wasn't trying to be inflammatory or anything, just giving you my perspective on things.

Making a blanket statement against any group of individuals is bigotry. I'm sorry you have had bad experiences with some people, and I'm sure some racism can be stemmed from bad personal experiences as well.

I, too, have been told I am abusing my kids by the mere act of coming out as trans. I've been told to kill myself. I reported those messages on my profile to steam, and their accounts are still active.

I've been called a liar for telling my story, telling only the truth, because trans people are terrible, manipulative rapists in their eyes.

So, yes, I feel your pain. But don't perpetuate the stereotypes about anyone, please.

Some on both sides of that coin take it very seriously. Some think, "Yeah, all cishet men are shit!" And the others, who have seen that type of shit in person are like "Yo, wtf."

Maybe I'm just a stick in the mud, but "jokes" like that are as funny as those who spout nazi bullshit or "kill trannys" or racist bullshit as "jokes" to me.

Why, though? Isn't that discriminatory?

It isn't even that complex if you are doing basic forms. Literally plug in numbers from a document that gets mailed to you January 15.

These are just private companies that typically fleece you out of a percentage of your income tax return.

My ex made us file taxes using "experts" for 17 years, even though I proved to her I could do it myself, and came up with the same numbers the "experts" did, because "they insure you if something goes wrong"

It's a scam. TurboTax, Jackson Hewitt, it's a scam

You're right, that title would have been much less wordy if "United State of America's Internal Revenue Service, the government department responsible for collecting taxes" was added.

Pretty much. If they made a "Pokemon Fitness" that tracked steps or heart rate and calories burned, it would be the same thing. "Your steps were converted to fitness energy! Here are the Pokemon you met in your walk!"

It's not a game, it's a gamified tool. It's a sleep tracking app with gameplay elements to keep one interested.

I'm so happy this distraction tactic is working and everyone is talking about a goddamn laptop instead of the actual court case.

I don't know much, but what I've heard, doesn't he invite people onto his show in a bad faith attempt to deconstruct their viewpoints instead of having an actual discussion or conversation?

In any case, I'm not a fan of debate shows, especially if the people have unwavering and aggressive views. I deal with enough of that shit from my own family.

In addition, false flaggers can go directly to hell. They have no intent of having constructive conversations, and instead wish to just aggressively attack people based on their own biases and bigotry.

Good bot. Why don't you sit down and have a byte?
