He just doesn’t give a shit about him.

Weird, because he went out of his way to bring in God into the conversation and said anyone that believes in him he doesn't trust.

Conservatives should be legally allowed to participate in society, yes.

I'm glad I could help your views progress!

Just because they are legally protected by the law,

Yeah, just as much as...literally every other individual in the country.

doesn’t mean other people can’t use their own freedom of speech and association to call out and disassociate from awful ideas and people.

Agreed, however hating someone because they have different views than you and trying to exclude them because of different beliefs says more about you than them.

However, not all restrictions are automatically fascist. In fact, even liberal democracies would be wise to not legally tolerate people who were willing to overthrow the system.

So you think we should be able to arrest communists, and those wanting to eat the rich?

liberty is a social contract

I disagree, I don't have liberty because other people have a social contract with me, I have liberty because I'm a human being. It's a natural human right. I don't have it because you agree that I have it.

He inherited 17 houses and has never worked

Why is that relevant?

every time I ask for something to be fixed he hires someone else out to do it

So he sucks because he gets a professional to help fix problems you have? That's what a landlord is supposed to do....

at one point he was saving up all my checks so I had to switch to money orders

You still paid rent with checks?

everyone like him

I agree, he sounds sleezy, but just because you have a bad landlord doesn't make all landlords bad.

Inherited everything while the rest of us have to work.

See, this is somewhere you and I differ completely. You hate someone because they have something you don't, I put 0 weight on it. Why should I hate someone for getting a gift from a relative or friend? Why should I hate someone because they're blessed differently than I?

How did federal covid money cause property taxes to go down?

Yes. Parents are idiots.

All you've shown is that you are for government forced re-education. See, this is why conservatives have a problem with the current education system, because they're just rebranded indian boarding schools.

Just because a couple religious bigots don’t want a book is meaningless.

You can keep saying this, but it's an overwhelming amount of the public you're fighting against.

Parents don’t know how to teach kids

And the fact we spend much much much more money per student on public education and constantly rank terribly in quality of education shows teachers don't know how to teach kids or what the data says is important to learn either.

Believe it or not, teaching the little first grader named timmy that he can dress like cindy and call himself laquisha and be a girl doesn't help math scores.

Parents don’t set the curriculum and they shouldn’t because by and large they are idiots.

And instead of leaving it up to parents, we should leave it to the government? That's where your thoughts nad mine differentiate, the government and public systems should be meant to serve the public, not overrule them.

You’ve at the very least buddied up with a bunch of bigots who would be fighting to keep black people out of their schools of this was 60 years ago.

If that's true, then that means you buddied up with the side that fought for slavery 200 years ago.

Okay, let me rephrase my entire first comment then to add the much needed value you desire:

For starters, recognizing that most of the problems our students face cannot be solved by schools

Agreed! The push for more social commentary and pushing social ideologies as the ‘savior’ of our students is absurd.

As a teacher, there is literally nothing I can do about the poverty, racism, access to Healthcare, and economic inequality

All of these metrics have gotten better over the last 60 years, yet our education system is falling being, how are these to blame?

Are you gonna answer now, or are you just gonna keep beating around the bush because you're wrong?

See, right there! At first it's 'no it's not happening anywhere!! then once we show you it is happening you say 'okay it's happening, but what's wrong with teaching kindergartners how to crossdress??'

Why teach kindergartners that cross dressing is fun, instead of, ya know, teaching kids useful stuff?

Our education system spends more per full time student than any other country in the world, but our test scores are shitty.

Do you think maybe there's be less push back about teachers trying to parent our kids, if the teachers actually showed they can teach our kids reasonably?

kids are gonna learn these things regardless,

Why? Why not let kids learn about society by...ya know, being part of society. Over representing these issues in schools despite parents wanting schools to focus on education that helps the students future is just the government pushing their own values. That's what we don't want, the government just taking our kids and pushing their morals, that's literally what indian boarding schools were about.

its best to help them rather than hinder them.

How is telling kindergartners that they should cross dress helpful to our society?

the ones that are lgbtq+ need to know they are fine

Okay, so on day 1 teachers can say 'hey if you aren't straight or question gender, you're fine' then you'd be okay with it if the teachers never talked about sexuality and gender for the rest of the year?

its ok for them to be who they are.

Why shouldn't the teachers be telling young christian boys it's okay for them to be who they are?

Agreed, but that's not my argument.

Not itemized, made clear to tenants, or asked for. Lack of transparency hurts all those valid points,

Why does that matter? Is your local grocery store transparent about the cost of chicken? No, because nobody is forcing you to pay for it. You pay for a service at an agreed upon price, if you don't want it don't buy it.

all, had bad landlords at some point.

I personally haven't, the worse landlords I've had were at an upscale apartment complex that got mad because I hung an American flag. Once again, it's up to you if you want to pay for the service provided by said landlord. Just like if you pay a plumber and they're mean to you, you probably won't go to them next time.

because they know that anyone who wants to live in the area will have a hard time finding another place.

I mean, you're just saying supply and demand still. They're charging that because that's what someone is willing to pay.

Even with less dense housing, if there were easy ways to get around other than cars, proximity would be less of an issue.

Agreed, the U.S. as a whole has had incredible incompetence with government officials regarding public transit. If we had reliable train and bus systems, we'd be in a much better position.

Sure! So as long as the manufacture says 'not designed for combat' it's not an assault rifle, right??

Please define Assault weapon.

It's really fucking simple, you're doing everything to avoid answering the question.

I supposed we can both find sources to say whether it's commercial or residential. https://www.google.com/search?channel=fen&client=firefox-b-1-d&q=are+apartment+buildings+residential+real+estate

I guess my question is, what's the point in arguing about this? Are you saying the only housing corporations should own are apartment buildings, the biggest most efficient source of housing for individuals in large cities?

exist

Nobody is questioning existence, we just don't care for it being pushed at schools.

If I want my kid to learn solely about MAGA ideologies, should that be forced on every other kid in their class? Or, should I take some responsibility and teach my kids that myself?

other sources of inequality

That's just saying 'etc.' so how am I supposed to ask about 'etc.'? You're just avoiding answering my questions for you. Can you not back up your statements?

All LGBTQ people are asking is for basic rights.

What basic rights are they missing?

The republicans are passing laws to literally ban the words gay

What proposals have republicans come up with to ban the word gay from school books?

You have no rights on what other people’s kids are not allowed to learn about.

You're right. But people who pay for the school property, maintenance costs, improvement costs, school supplies, teachers salaries, admin salaries should have a say in their kids education. Public schools are locally funded, and forcing programs in the schools counter to what the parents want is totalitarianism similar to indian boarding schools.

If you want to take your kid out of school do it.

You say that, but you prevent any attempt for parents to have an alternative to public school.

If 100% of parents in a school district didn't want a book in their 3rd graders library, should it be there?

The combat is fairly challenging - it’s easy for one or two bad moves (or bad luck) to kill your whole party in a battle. It also takes a bit to learn the combat system if you haven’t played D&D.

I've always been interested in D&D, but no never played it.

You end up with 4 different characters with different strengths and weaknesses and each with a bunch of different abilities that have different rules for when and how often you can use them.

I have played quite a few games with the party system, so I have so previous knowledge on the strengths and weaknesses of party members, which may help. Thanks for the info!

Outside the combat, how have you liked the game?

You’re clearly incapable of understanding a satirical joke to prove a point

So you're joking and you think conservatives should be allowed to participate in our society? So your fascist views are in jest?
