I just realized when attempting to click on a debate with RM that if a person blocks you, you cannot accept their debates.
This means that if you get people who spam debtesby accepting too many you can just block them and get higher quality opponents.
So anyone who gets blocked soon, I didn't do it for any personal reasons but because you suck at debating. I apologize in advance.

So companies you'd try to sell for would hassle about not paying up. They tried harder to keep money they'd continue to pay you with.
Have you never worked with an insurance agency?
I never sold insurance I just got licensed to learn about the industry. However no insurance companies do not pay. I knew a woman who got seriously hurt on the job. She HD to wait two years and fight the insurance company to get paid. This is why insurance fraud is generally a myth. Nobody is working that hard just to get back to even.
The motto of insurance companies are
1. Deny
2. Delay
3. Don't pay
I spent a lot of my time growing up in Florida. I heard nothing but stories about people with home insurance have to fight their ass off to get paid and brought back to even .
When you watch true crime almost every story has somebody the insurance company is refusing to pay life insurance to until the case is solved. They are crossing their fingers just hoping the person owed money murdered their husband so they can avoid paying so they will literally wait years until somebody else is brought to trial for murder.
This is why I prepared my wife. I said to her. I got insurance and the company will refuse to pay. They always do and to prepare for battle with them.
I know this may come as a shock but insurance companies are evil.

I have a new video up that will show you how to safely click on links in debates on firefox, edge, brave browser and safari browser. While this technique can be used to circumvent paywalls which is a victimless crime and one the companies that put up these weak paywalls want you to circumvent do not do it. Yes this is literally the same justification for following laws blindly in America during slavery when slaves had to by law be returned to slave owners. It is also the mentality of literally the Nazis who did not put up any sort of non violent resistance to the regime. That doesn't change the fact it is the law and it will be followed or I will personally report you to the police for misusing this information to bypass paywalls. Information should only be available to you if you can afford it, so any broke somalian looking to get an education for free with pirated content to better yourself and escape poverty. Go fuck yourself you criminal scum. Anyway here is the video to help you safely click links on debates https://youtu.be/rUlw4UlFjoE

I was legit trying to team up with town. I thought it might be mutually beneficial but nobody is creative enough to consider any sort of out of the ordinary strategy like this.
I kina figured when I proposed it, nobody would go for it but it helps us both becausei can essentially be like a vigilant for town when i have the NK .

It was a protest of what people felt was an unfair election. I think people wanted to see some politicians face to ace and just yell at them. Maybe some were there and thought it was a fair election and just wanted to support trump.

It's true. To some extent. You basically deal with pirates by making it easier to just pay you. For example Netflix at like $15 a month is easier than pirating every season of all of its shows and it's 2000 movies.
You also make your stuff significantly higher quality for more information take a look at how Pez handled piracy as a good example, videogame companies in Japan also just made it more fun to buy their content than to pirate it.
When you do stuff like that than the only people actually pirating stuff is the extremely disadvantagedthat need to in order to improve the quality of their life.

And abolishing copyrights makes it more difficult to earn money from songs and movies, which after some thinking doesnt sound like such a bad thing.
Copyright should be abolished and replaced with creative commons type licenses.

They are usually interested in targeting platforms. Platforms such as the pirate Bay . If you don't use a VPN when pirating content you may also catch some shit from your ISP .
I dont think pirate Bay is doing anything illegal either . They are a platform for torrenting only and you can put your own work on their and allow others to torrent it if you are a believer in freedom. I know that if write a book and sale it, I am not really going to go after anyone who piratesit at all. If you like it than biy it afterwords if you can afford it. My brother is an author and he gets worked up about it and I frequently remind him that he shouldn't act like a pussy about pirating and that he should actually give away more free content.
For example he cries that my mom has not read any of his books but he has literally asked his mom to purchase a copy if she wants to read one.
It's stupid. Your 100 closest friends should get free digital copies and you 5 closest family members should get free physical copies. If your stuff is good you'll make your money back from word of mouth

I would also say the fights the music industry engages in to prevent random broke African people from accessing music is terrible as is their fight to prosecute piracy on discontinued music that only survives on tapes in random thrift shops and garage sales. Music is part of our cultural identity and the fact the music industry would prosecute somebody for pirating a tape of music they no longer are able to monetize is ridiculous

Most people don't but this isn't the same thing as downloading a movie or song. If the site wanted to it could put up a pay wall to access the article hich can't be circumvented in this way. They want it to be able to be circumvented this way to help out researchers and students. Both things debaters fall under.

I think I can prove she has a high IQ. Probably in the 130-140 range.
However I am in like 6 debates right now. I can probably defeat your arguments much easier than I can prove my own but if I understand your premises correctly they don't prove average or low intelligence. Here is what I gather from our conversation.
1. Taylor swift is not smart because she is pretty
Studies show that appearance and IQ have a positive Correlation and being pretty wouldn't make you stupid.
2. Taylor swift is succesful because her dad is rich
IQ is largely heritable and her dad's money is probably from having a High IQ.
3. Her moves seem like common sense
Hindsight is 20/20 and the conventional wisdom went against the move as did a bunch of powerful people who were hired essentially to manipulate her and she managed to have enough confidence to overcome pressure almost nobody is able to.

This is fairly accurate, so it means that Taylor is either not smart because she didn't do this or it means that her team was just particularly dumb or way too risk-averse compared to her.
Since she has achieved what only maybe 2orn3 people before her have. People like Michael Jackson and Jay Z and Dolly Parton I will assume she did walk that tight rope correctly
So why did you have a kid with her? Getting married and having a kid is two of the most dangerous things a man can do and you should have been way more careful who you do it with.
I think having childhood drama caused me to become captain save-a-hoe . It's not a mistake I would make again

I am literally offended that you call her a genius and then admit she is only successful because she has a rich daddy the very next second.
Thats how she got her start but there is a difference between what you do with that initial fame and what is possible. For example Lisa Loeb got a similar big entrance and essentially blew it, Taylor swift may have gotten in where a broke person would have failed but she capitalized better on her opportunities than almost anybody in existence would be able to.
This is not much of an impressive feat of intelligence so much as it is common sense opportunism. She was always pop-country and found that more people responded well to her more pop oriented songs.
It was an impressive feat when you realize that common knowledge was that you mixed in some country songs with some pop songs to try and bridge that gap, but she released an entire pop album and was able to take complete control over her handlers at like 19. The experts surrounding her believed that every fan she had would drop off once she did pop and she would not retain her original audience. It is also an industry that is afraid of calculated risk.
Hitler lost because he didn't listen to his generals. Taylor Swift won because she is an attractive female who appeals to the overwhelming number of dumb bitches out there and because she has a rich daddy.
You lose whether you listen to your advisors or ignore them. The competent leader does neither but instead takes their knowledge and utilizes their knowledge while essentially ignoring their advice knowing they don't have as much of a bird's eye-view as the leader. Wisdom comes from the balancing act of ignoring the wisdom of generals and utilizing it.
Then why did you marry her?
Because I have a kid with her and I want to see him everyday and I don't trust her judgement in men and don't want her to bring some piece of shit into my son's life.
All females are mean spirited misandrists when it comes to males they see as low in SMV.
true but my point is swifties are no more so than the general population of females.

NOTICE FROM MODERATION:
Concerns over the legality of disabling JavaScript to bypass paywalls have been raised.
Please do not disable JavaScript for the express purpose of bypassing paywalls!
There are of course no laws which state JavaScript must not be disabled; meaning it would seem to come down to motivation which makes the action legal or illegal.
Further, there are security concerns with JavaScript; and some is so poorly designed that it makes websites utilizing it a complete pain to browse (looking at you in-window pop-up ads). Either of those would be a valid reason to disable JavaScript.

She does, unfortunately, have a fan base disproportionately represented by deranged fanatics who'll dogpile on anyone who even mildly criticizes her, proud misandrists, the weirdly superstitious about things like astrology, and the generally mean-spirited. But I don't believe this is her fault per se.
I believe her fan base is generally stupid. My wife is a huge fan and saw her concert in theaters like 5 times and watches it every other day on Disney. My wife is also a mean spirited bitch but I don't think she is representative of swifities in general.
It's just young girls who really like her music and bond with each other over it. I don't think they are mean spirited misandrists . Where have you seen this?
Most seem disinterested in politics and just want to have fun.

I like her.maybe it's my dick talking but she is cool, and a 4chan user.
I don't think she is pushing her political views just stating them but the media is propping her up and kissing her ass because thy believe if she I aggressive with her beliefs it will cause a bunch of disinterested young girls to vote biden who would have likely stayed home.
So I guess the frustration is probably due to that and the constant promotion of her lately by the media at large. It is somewhat frightening to see the coordinated effort to promote her as well.
-----
On the one hand I do see that she is your typical Hollywood person just with a stupid opinion and okay with sharing it. Fine.
On the other hand it is tough to swallow because like Dolly Parton, Taylor swift is actually a genius. She got into the limelight with country. Her rich daddy going store to store to buy hundreds of thousands of records so she would start topping the charts and get attention from the main stream.
Her shift to pop to capture a new audience. Every decision she made ws her pushing around her team and not her team pushing around her such as what PINK allows. So Taylor's success is her own and it would be much less significant if she didn't have immense courage and intelligence that is just unheard of for 18 year olds .
-------------
We also have an example of the right being antagonistic for ideology over race. Something white nationalists often criticize them for.
We have a young white woman that is a positive influence for young girls. She int doing perverted stuff on stage. She isn't promoting being a slut, despite being one. She isn't promoting a woke ideology.
She is merely a white woman promoting good values and who is successful who also just so happens to be liberal.
Th outrage would be better directed at somebody else. IT is just like the Karen meme which made people want to attack admittedly annoying women but white women who serve an important function. The function was to enforce cultural norms. A people who without we would indeed become more divided.

@TheUnderdog
You are correct, but should you be allowed to advocate a political opinion you don't actually believe when you say it (however specific you want to be) but are merely trying to act crazy to get people to watch your show for money?
As frustrating as it is all th people grifting woke nonsense for example orea making gay pride cookies when in all likelihood they don't give an actual shit. They should have the right to do this.
As the nation gets more qndmore divided it will also likely become necessary to lie about your beliefs. While the right have the urge to squash dissent. The left tends to want to squash it in a much more insidious way. The left would have you forced to do a humiliation ritual where you have to actually promote their beliefs when you disagree with them.
Its one of those forgotten artifacts of successful leftist revolutions that often are ignored in coverage of them. And we can see seeds of it here already. During BLM for example the left was encouraging people to confront relatives who were quiet on the issue. You will see the right at their worst repress opinion, but there is something odd about the lefts need to be validated. I suppose it is why Ayn Rand advocated to always be honest with them.
She showed an example in atlas shrugged where a tycoon was forced to sell off or nationalize 75% of his business and he pointed out he did it at the barrel of a gun and it triggered the leftist judge who wanted him to say what she was doing was right.
It's not just a legal protection against that sort of contradiction between internal and external beliefs. There are strategic reasons to do it that are important, but even when the strategic reasons are not important it is of value to have it as a freedom.
Clinton for example stated she had a public opinion that differed from her private opinion. Shockingly only a small amount of the left was outraged by this. I thought when the news came out people would be in arms. I also personally thought it was okay for her to lie about opinions on topics she had no hope of ever making politically viable.
For example. I believe ín privatization of schools. If I campaigned for presidency I might mention some levers I would pull to improve the school system but I wouldn't advocate for privatizing schools nor if I was elected president would I make even a single step towards doing it.
Why is this?
For a few reasons
1. Privatizing schools wouldn't turn out good in th longterm without making a lot of other changes to society that needs to come along with it. Javier milei has so much room to do what he wants in Argentina he could make that work but I couldn't make it work in th United States.
2. Making changes such as privatizing schools if it did work in the long term the public is really stupid so the short term negative impacts would result in a lot of losses for my side of the ticket. We should always look at 100 year impacts butmost people are really tepid and only look at near term impacts.
3. I can't realistically privatize schools with a single term in office so it I pointless to donate for
I don't believe those are unethical reasons to present a different public view especially considering how stupid the public and the media is.
The media doesn't understand nuance due to them mostly being low IQ. So if they asked me on the campaign trail if I wanted to privatize schools I would say yes but add in the caveats I mentioned above. The media is also a little evil so it would just immediately cut right after me saying yes and then your opponent is evil so negative campaign ads would say stuff like . "If wylted was elected he has promised to eliminate public schools"
So it's just better to lie and say you don't believe in it since it won't affect your policy making anyway.
Also what if I have some stupid obscure belief and billions of dollars. Why shouldn't I have the right to publicly back people who would disagree with my message but be good at pleading it. For example I start an online newspaper and pay a reporter 6 figures to promote my views. Why should she she have to turn down the opportunity to make a good living?

I won't dent some beliefs can be contradictory but that is really based om their premises not there conclusion . I will give you the example of 1 contradictory belief a 2 thatvonlybseem contradicting when you strawman, and make no mistake you strawman the left and the right even though you do it more often with the right.
Contradiction
1. Gender is a social construct so men and women are equal at literally everything.
Also
2. Men can be women on the inside and can't help being trans.
It's contradictory beliefs and both of those beliefs are usually premises for arguments and not h conclusion.
Here is 2 that are not contradictory
1. Pro life
P1. Deprivation of life without just cause is unethical
P2. Abortion deprives the potential human of life
C- abortion is unethical
2. Pro death penalty.
P1- life can be taken for a just cause
P2- state sanctioned murder to punish a murderer is just cause
C THE Dearh penalty is ethical
The premises don't contradict and instead seem to complement each other. These beliefs could contradict each other but typically they won't because it will be premises like the above.
"Pro choice and pro vacciene mandate"
So usually this is contradictory because the left makes claims like that they believe bodily autonomy is important. They are lying when thy make the claims typically So I will present the true arguments of some liberals
Pro choice is usually a female empowerment stance in feminist communities. So it is about keeping the control of your income in your own hands and it helps to put women on more equal ground with men, not having kids also allows them to leave men easier so its about empowering women.
As far as vaccine mandates is concerned it is an issue of public health. So somebody can simultaneously care about public health and feel like a pro choice stance would help women.
It's also not grifting to have contradictory beliefs . We all have them and we just need ro find them and root them out. Maybe a person just feels like bodily autonomy should be a right and pushes a pro choice message and then they state that the vaccine is not about bodily autonomy but public health. Essentially using weasel words to hide their premise. It means they feel like these things are both true but also realize on some level thy are wrong and probablybalso realize they are biase
