What's pathetic is reading nonsense like that.
Grasping at straws for a 'white liberal cuck' narrative to make sense for all the views liberals hold.

Some who came to know my attitude to the religion now and again berate me about it even implying I'm racist to arabs.
I calmly ask them, each time they bring it up, to read the Hadith (first because it makes some things clearer, faster) and then the Qur'an and then to research victims of Sharia regimes, preferably female ones (plenty of such books have been written, non-fictional). It's funny how silent they go when they realise I talk from the position of less ignorance and more open-mindedness. They are quick to change the topic fast especially as they know I'm not a right-wing bigot so no such character assassination will work on me.
When they admit their complete ignorance, I then ask them who is the bigger racist; the one who empathises with ethnicities that are victims of a religion that blackmails them to stay part of it and under its ruthless thumb or the one that supports the idea that the race of the ethnicity can't escape the scarring on its culture done by its horrific creed?

Some people, women (feminist women shock and horror) have a job and are paid wages they can barely live on.
She has sex one night with a man, both not too educate on how silly the 'pull out' method is and one of the only nights of thirty mins of stress-free life for whatever reason.
So... She's pregnant.
That's a typical scenario where abortion is needed. Why? Plan B costs money, she's broke, he's broke and they are literally making as much as they need to spend to survive.
It's partly why he was reluctant to buy a condom.
Welcome to reality Underdog, tell them to get a job, they both have them. Tell them they should have used contraception or abstained, well done you solved it all. Wow, pro-life utopia what a top tier genius. I'm sure no back alley abortions will occur and that those born into the poverty and unwanted arena of the slum/ghetto/already-full-family will enjoy their life either neglected (even worse, emotionally abused at least) by their parents or in the foster care system.
I'm not talking of guaranteed outcomes, I'm talking of trends and overall consequences. You clearly can spell Feminist btw, so stick to the right spelling (it's not Femenist).

It is a separate debate on whether or not homeschooling is truly sufficient or not.
Homeschooling has also been the way that the worst abuse cases you can imagine kept going and kept the children hidden way past when they turned 18. I'm not gonna give details on how the cover ups work because if literally one abusive parent reads this and gets an idea, I dont want to prevent them doing it wrong and getting caught.
There are ways that fabricated tuition in homeschooling are trackable and can warrant investigation however if they do everything correctly, it's difficult for the education administration to catch onto it.

Einstein wasn't outqualifying his schooling establishment to teach himself anything, I don't think you know how qualifications work.

That doesn't prove anything, the parents hired outside of themselves to educate the children and it is impossible it was 'outqualifying' just that it was a qualified tutor and sufficient.

@Fruit_Inspector
I think the only solution is to pull kids from public schools. They have successfully infiltrated universities, indoctrinated educators, and taken over the unions. Pulling kids will cut off their funding and reduce their influence on all fronts. But unfortunately, many don't realize that they are often the most qualified people to educate their own children so they will leave their kids under the Critical pedagogy of these radical activists.
- There is no way that any single parent, not even a teacher, is the most qualified person to singlehandedly educate their children vs a schooling establishment. The issue with bad schools is rarely qualification, it's more about implementation.
- The reason that they can't do this is cost, I reckon only a tiny spoonful (not even handful) of parents send their children to public school when being fully capable of sending their children to private schools with next to 0 financial risk vs their income level. Most parents who send their children to public school have at least some financial justification for needing to do so.

Popularity may be a factor in who wins, the overall function is that they push Mods to hold MEEPs for changes to the website and also that they challenge mods on certain bans or actions (either too lenient or too harsh in what they accuse) and keep the Mods held to community standards, as opposed to Mod-decided standards.
I don't know if the President is also responsible for tournaments that can be held but too few on the site actively debate for that to be an issue as is. I'd imagine it would fall into their role though, when and if it occurs.

I find the video really insensitive and have a feeling the the actors and actresses will come to bitterly regret participating in this in their future endeavours as they'll no doubt proudly flex it on their Resumes/CVs... Making it that much easy to 'cancel' them for what indeed is a very poor-taste jab.

GreyParrot, JJ is particularly inferior to the mRNA at handling the Delta variant, just in case you weren't aware.
AZ isn't very weak at it because it's double dose but also is weaker.
JJ being single dose is a major issue with how well it works, the reason the doses being double is important is so that if, for whatever reason, your body after the first doesn't have sufficient white blood cells or T-cells that memorised the Covid imprint, they certainly will when the body goes 'oh this is hitting me again'. They also will better adapt to similar, though not as efficiently as the mRNA vaccines will enable them to.

Personal views on NASA aside, it may be a good movie if you're into emotionally gripping somewhat sci-fi tales.

Barely any left-handers actually hold their cutlery the other way around, the reason is that left-handers also (for whatever reason) find the stronger hand easier to rely on for stability, whereas right-handed prefer the right-hand for all active purposes.
The 'cutting' motion is weaker, therefore, in left-handers as they often use their weaker hand to do it.
In other words, you holding it in a left-handed manner actually matches many left-handers who hold it in the normal right-handed manner. They want the stronger hand stabilising the objects they cut, with their fork.
While left-handers defy this logic by often relying on their weaker hand to stabilise rulers or such tools during handiwork on paper, the biggest sign that they consistently prefer their stronger hand for stability is shown in professional gaming.
Left-handed mouses for gaming are a very low-return industry because barely any left-handers actually enjoy or need it.
Their weaker hand is actually their preferred hand for active things like aiming the weapon in a game (the mouse does this) or navigating quickly between different elements of a live game. They prefer their left-hand to remain relatively in place and cover the hitting buttons with accuracy element, not the aiming or adapting part of the game's demand on the brain.
Left-handers also seem to have an edge in certain fields, Obama, Bush Jr. and Clinton (Bill) were all left-handers.

Making guns illegal worked almost everywhere else in developed nations, especially for school shootings, surveillance is a very good idea when it comes to spotting dangerous individuals.

'Demobilize' is as ridiculous as thinking the 2nd Amendment really is about fighting the government anymore.
The reason it hasn't worked before is the US never did proper brute force sting operations and programs such as paying people for their guns (yes, really it worked largely in Australia's anti gun campaign some years ago).
The US has to first have its populace to hate the weapons and not react to tragedies like this by saying 'OHHH WE GIVE MORE PEOPLE THE MORE GUNS AND THE SHOOTER WILL DIE QUICKER!' because that mentality, in practise, rarely comes to be the main way it gets used.

@ludofl3x
The solution, when brutal emotions about how to punish and make an example of school shooters and such are removed from the equation, is to incapacitate the wrongdoer as much as possible.
A gun can kill like very few other weapons (only worse thing is explosives or nerve agents), it doesn't belong in the hands of any ordinary citizen nor even any blade that isn't used for anything other than killing or showing off is needed to be legal.
Remove them. Mental health and the rest needs work yes but the ability of a lunatic to act on their urges lethally needs to be 100% stopped that is absolutely the role of law enforcers.

@zedvictor4
You can't really talk proud about the British Empire crumbling if you're gonna compare it to wars the US had that weren't based on colonising aims.
The US is many more times in size than the UK, it is a federation with many states under its own control, that is a self-fulfilled empire in a sense that destroys what Britain currently has.
On the other hand, size of what you own doesn't mean shit, it's about how long-term happily your people are living and functioning as citizens.

@n8nrgmi
This has already been done in nations with either socialised or semi-socialised healthcare systems.
US runs on free market basis for medical care and has a federal state system with huge rights given to the states (much more than Germany grants its states, Germany is federation too if you didn't know, Berlin is its own state for instance). In US, a state can simply choose to not enforce anything like such a mandate and very few hospitals want to risk their antivax employees running to the nearest competitor and giving them bad press as 'tyrants' (I put in quotations as it will be the headline, not to pick a side).
So, this is the struggle in US, no real mechanics to push a nationwide enforced mandate for hospital staff to get vaccinated as nothing in the Constitution really enables that to bypass State authority.

You just directly equated being a racist parent to being a bad parent, this is actually further than I'd go because I merely said bad influence not overall bad parent.
I reckon some racist parents may, in terms of caring for their own, not actually be that bad. However, the influence their racist and thus inherently spiteful, divisive outlook and temperament will give to those they raise, regarding other races, is certainly a bad/negative influence.
Do you remember what I said that in reply to?

Nope, the discourse that took place started with me literally stating that racist parents are not good influences on their children.

100% of the people were unvaccinated under Trump with less deaths.

And don't give me that bullshit that the unvaccinated are killing the vaccinated.
they're killing themselves overall, not sure where your citations are for your accusations.

You needed to force vertical or horizontal on your second move btw but as I say, no matter what you did I'd eventually win because you can't force the tie as things progress and there's nearby piece for me to 'fill in the gap' from too many angles and I go first.
Five is fairer because no 'three' can autowin at any point.
