@Bones
If I had it my way, this is what I would do. 99 percent of abortion which occur are a result of careless sex - only 1 percent are rape/incest. Make abortion legal only for the one percent and dedicate the entirety of the current funding for reintegrating and repairing the damages of the 1 percent. Think about all the money that is being given to irresponsible party goers who get banged on a pile of bean bags in front of 50 people with no care for contraceptives or safe sex - is money better spent on these people or for victims of actual crime? 
The ones who benefit from illegal abortion are back-alley abortion clinics and the rich that have more desperate souls born to exploit.

The victims of outlawing abortion are the babies born unwanted and impoverished to parents incapable of properly raising them.

Bingo, you get it. The entire ideology is based on liberating(where liberalism is derived from) the individual. It strives for everyone to be mindless selfless Neanderthals with no purpose in life other than their basic animalistic desires. Which is why it continuously attacks the fundamentals of religion, sex differences, etc.
Replace 'selfless' with 'selfish and impulsive' and you've described the right-wing Libertarian agenda very well indeed.

And the often complex, multidimensional and subjective nature of bullshitting makes it very challenging to claim that painkillers will give you chronic pain if you take them.

It's not about who it's from, it's about how it's used.

The only thing that separates it from normal cash is the fact that it's convenient for people who want to make illicit purchases. There is absolutely nothing about crypto unless one lived in Zimbabwe during its hyperinflation, that makes it lucrative and reliable as a currency.

Crypto was made for criminals to trade online without the government able to pinpoint the start and end of many transactions that happened via it.

Again; just throwing a set of facts out, not linking it together with any argument, justification or coherent thinking, is just intellectually lazy conspiratorial thinking.

Any idiot can throw out a set of facts that seem to be indicative of malfeasance when they don’t have to actually argue it is.
Let's rewind to what you replied to.

you take pain medicine when you're in pain

iff you were experiencing more chronic and more severe pain then you might consider a more powerful pain-killer

iff it is considered "moral" to take mild pain-killers to mitigate mild pain then it must be considered "moral" to take stronger pain-killers to mitigate more severe pain
Sure, I agree to what you said, I also agree that opioid painkillers have addictive tendencies and that you trade-off side effects.

I know enough (not specifying how much I know or how I know it) about this to tell you that people with long-term chronic pain can survive on 2 pills of paracetemol every 6 hours and live relatively pain-free (except for the window in between). 

The actual drawback of pain-free life is that when/if they get genuine things like twisted ankles, bruises etc, they don't feel them properly and can damage them by not avoiding hurting them. 

Painkillers involve tradeoffs and the more severe ones (typically opioid based) are indeed genuinely dangerous if you need them for too long.

I would absolute agree with you if where you're going with this is that medicinal weed is better than opioid painkiller medication for people with severe pain. I am totally behind legalising it for that specifically. I also would agree that if alcohol is legal, weed should be too, however I am a person that's very cautious with alcohol, so I am the same with weed. The only drug I truly don't mind dabbling in regularly is caffeine as I have found genuine benefits for my brain and emotions when doing so.

You know what is absolutely vile? The systematic kidnapping of millions of 8 year olds & 8 months old from their families, due to race, religion or class in your own countries, & the systematic massacre & starvation of 8 years old & 8 old months in other countries. – Speaking of boys being arrested for blaspheme in the West, Police arrest 12-year-old over racist social media messages in West Midlands. ABSOLUTELY VILE! Spare us your false disgusting moral abyss. Ugh! DISGUSTING!
Okay, so you support racism being allowed? First, I want to establish which side of the spectrum you're coming at me with the hypocrisy.

Are you for what they did or against it?

Abubaker Deghayes, 53, promoted “jihad by sword”.
Abubaker Deghayes rolled out that old excuse saying he was only explaining the meaning of Jihad by the sword as" self-defence ". 
- He messed up when he said "for self-defense", he should've said "for invasion". He would've been awarded a knighthood like the war criminal Tony Blair. 
Were the Iraqis happy under Hussein?

I am not supporting Blair and Bush in the reasoning they invaded nor the means that the troops took, I am asking if you're implying that the Iraqis were in a happy situation with their leadership.

Here’s the State of Texas programs that promote life over abortion: https://www.hhs.texas.gov/services/health/women-children/alternatives-abortion

And here is a community funded initiative:

Anything else?
Yes, I am not asking for a charity dedicated to stopping abortions in Texas and keeping it pro-life, I am asking for proof that you give money and provide proper education, healthcare, transport and overall integration for the impoverished children into the rest of society.

I already know that the right-wing do not do this, I am asking you to admit that their 'giving a damn' about a fetus ends the moment that it's born.

Just throwing out a set of facts, with no context; no argument, and no encompassing justification and pretending that it indicates malfeasance- is the took of to the idiot conspiracy theorist who is unable to think critically about their position.

My state of Texas funds various “houses” that can help poor women with clothes, diapers, formula, toys, you name it for new born children.

All taxpayer funded of course.
And is it in your state that ghettos have arisen? 

Also, please show me proof that the trailer park type of poverty in Texas and Tennessee is actually met with charity helping out their young.

More conservative ideology (B = 0.68, standard error [SE] = 0.04, P<.001) and more conservative party affiliation (F(8 2920) = 38.45, P<.001) showed more stigmatizing attitudes toward depression. Item-level analyses revealed a difference where the supporters of the conservative party differed (P<.05) from supporters of the liberal party, with a higher proportion agreeing that "people could snap out of " depression if they wanted to; the populist right-wing party differed from the conservative party with a higher proportion agreeing on items displaying people with depression as "dangerous" and "unpredictable." Even self-stigma was highest among the populist right-wing party with 22.3% agreeing that "if I had depression I wouldn’t tell…."

You just think you're a second-class citizen" "I am a voice for blacks #BLM #BIPOC. You don't like affirmative action? You're a white supremacist, and you are like that guy from a cabin book I never read!"

I will tell you the real fucking truth about crypto.

It is for criminals to purchase the most taboo things ever and was not ever meant for the general populace to consider valid.

Crypto was around much longer than most think to trade things no morally correct human would trade in. Think weapons, videographic content, hitmen etc.

This is not a joke currency, get the fuck out of that world, it's not a place you just dip your toes in.

Also, you may say 'haha but they don't get caught'. The vice chairman of Bitcoin got caught laundering money for drug dealers on Silk Road. Fuck these parasites and stop thinking it's secure.


People trade in Bitcoin since 2015 but crypto has been around since '08-'09 and the moment it emerged the most nefarious people took advantage.

Just so we're clear, you think that even paracetemol (known as acetaminophen in the US) is going to cause me pain for the rest of my life if taken when needed?

I don't need to disclose to you if I am somebody suffering from chronic pain, I clearly hinted that I'm not.

Every few months something may happen, it could be anything though with muscle pain and certain tooth pain, a good heating or cooling therapy ointment for muscle and sensitivity toothpaste for the tooth can help instead. Severe headaches and sore throat exist too (but so to pills that soothe the pain differently than pain meds do, for sore throat).

Regardless this 'tough it out' mentality is fine, if you're into that. I don't get it though, if you take the correct dosage the only real issues with long-term pain medication are blood related and that you often need more of certain vitamins/minerals to compensate.

What they do to the nerves (unless you mean opioid pain medication) is all continuously temporary. You do not develop withdrawal symptoms of any severe kind to something like paracetemol or ibuprofen.

Last August, an eight-year-old Hindu boy, who was not named, became the youngest person in Pakistan to be charged with blasphemy. 

In December, a Sri Lankan factory manager working in Pakistan was beaten to death and set ablaze by a mob after being accused of blasphemy. 

Absolutely vile.

Is it the blood thinning effect of aspirin and ibuprofen that worry you? That's not there with paracetemol/acetaminophen. That said, ibuprofen is superior if we're talking pain reduction.

I totally disagree with the part where you said none can pass or that they haven't really thought it through but I agree with you that trans used to mean drag queens and tomboys, it's come to mean something else entirely.

In other words, what 'trans' used to refer to are the people who now go by they/them and are just masculine women or feminine men and they genuinely fight against socially constructed gender roles. On the flip side, we have people completely enslaving themselves to gender roles so extremely that they down hormones and undergo surgery to mimic the biological sex characteristics in order to feel complete in their preferred gender role. That's not escaping the prison of gender roles, it's surrendering to it in its entirety and emotionally pressuring those around you to not use logic against you if they are liberal and still are skeptical that your decision is necessarily what you think it is.

I support the freedom for adults but I agree with you that as teens are still going through puberty, there's physiological issues with manipulating their hormones in a way that can stifle it and affect their body for life.

I find your statement fairly one sided. Of course people want power. It's a virtue for anyone to want any form of power if offered it. Hell, you even ran for president as well because it would give you more power. Everyone has a desire for power, but only a few are worthy of power. It's also not about who has power, but what they'll do with it. Airmax has proven he can handle the power given to him and hence won the election.
I will reply one thing to this, since you don't seem to comprehend the manipulative side of Airmax; it comes down to effort.

All my supporters knew I'd worked hard to keep this site alive while it would otherwise be dead, Airmax worked hard in a different way to stop DDO being dead.

I succeeded so far, Airmax failed on DDO but adspam attacks where the admin won't help you out are not easy to prevent, especially when the 'fixes' they dish out give other severe glitches to the website.

If I had not been on this website, I predict that due to several butterfly effects of my debate and forum participation, you'd have an environment that's basically much less active and much more troll-like. I am literally that active and, in the forums, so are you. You and I saved this website from what would pretty much be staleness outside the Religion Forums (which would be more toxic) had we not been involved from the start to now.
