    I couldn’t understand what you were saying, you didn’t use nearly enough lingo, so I translated it.

    "Ah, the almighty power of lingo—like the Swiss Army knife of social circles. Once you’re hip to the jargon game, it’s like spotting Easter eggs in every convo. At work, lingo’s the secret sauce for pushing complex ideas through the pipeline fast. But hey, here’s the kicker: it’s like having a VIP pass—you’re either in the club or left standing outside.

    Now, here’s where it gets spicy. Some folks take that lingo and flip the script—they don’t just use it, they manufacture it like a startup cranking out MVPs. Back in the day, this was mostly culty vibes, fringe-y circles looking to get the ‘us vs. them’ mojo going. But then boom—the suits came in, turned it into a science, and voilà, welcome to Corporate Speak 2.0.

    MBA-types are the real MVPs here. Knowing the latest buzzwords is like holding the golden ticket. If you’re still rocking last quarter’s vocab, well, tough luck—you’re getting a one-way ticket to Outsider-ville. Gotta keep your buzzword game on point, always watching the trends, or else risk going full ‘legacy system.’ Meanwhile, casuals who just want to dip a toe in? They’re hitting the eject button as soon as they hear ‘synergize’ for the tenth time.

    But hey, it’s not just the corporate world—we’ve got weaponized lingo all over the place now. Find a group that keeps updating their lingo like it’s firmware? Yeah, you might wanna run a virus scan on that one."


  • “it’s not my fault my country killed a half million civilians, I can’t do anything about it.” -You

    And what exactly can I do to stop it aside from vote? You act like you have all the answers so please tell me what the average low income American can do to stop a war half way across the world. I’ll wait for the how to guide.

    “I demand my government force another country to stop killing civilians immediately” -Also you

    Never said I demand anything, I said I vote. You seem to make it a habit of putting words in peoples mouths to fit your agenda. You own a farm? Because you’re building straw men like crazy lol.

    Why the fuck would I support American political candidates as a non-American? Just because plenty of people are stupid, doesn’t mean I need to be as well. Plenty of people think that most Palestinian civilians are innocent, but it doesn’t make it true.

    I dunno, it is a very odd thing for you to do. It’s also very odd to tell citizens of another country how to behave and interact with their government. What country praytell are you living in? Are you personally making an effort to stop every bad thing their doing or do you just embrace your hypocrisy full force? Oh no, I bet you’re a “wait till people start dying to care” kinda guy.







  • If I’m being honest, I don’t really feel like going back and forth anymore, it’s pointless. You’re free to think I’m wrong, I think you came across poorly and are wrong too.

    Neither one of us are going to change our minds and we’ve decended into responses with cut quotes and countless questions. Things like “I didn’t call them a drone I said they’d act like one.” It’s silly. There’s really no point in either one of us going back and forth, to do what? Are you really open to the idea that the war in the Ukraine is important, it doesn’t seem like it, and me spending time writing up response after response just wastes my time writing it and your time reading it.

    I hope you’re well man.


  • You’ve been trying? Your initial rant seemed very targeted at people and insulting, with plenty of name calling.

    You’ve been disrespecting people from the jump, saying only like 4 people will be able to understand you. You reject the idea that you might be wrong and that other people might have a point. You simply dismiss and attack people who disagree with you. You’ve had chances to prove your point and didn’t, at all, you just attacked people.

    Also saying you don’t care what’s happens in Ukraine is just heartless on a human level. If you don’t care if a country gets invaded and their people raped and murdered, well it seems like you don’t have any morals. You can say we should support them with money or weapons, I disagree but I can understand that stance. Saying you don’t care if they win it’s some cold shit.

    But regardless, when you enter the conversation saying people won’t be able you because they don’t get it and attacking groups of people, you don’t really have a lot of room to complain about people being disrespectful. You called people who might disagree with you “parrots” and “drones” and here you are talking about disrespect? Then you edited it and called people fragile, just doubling down on the insults. For a guy so upset that people are attacking him for a different opinion, you are did come out of the gate attacking anyone who might disagree with you. Get the fuck out of here with this victim bs.










  • One side has stats that have down that Roe V Wade massively reduced crime as less children were born into the system or unwanted. The burden of an unwanted child can ruin both the parents and childs life. We’ve seen how abortion bans can lead to doctors being scared to do anything in some situations causing the mother to die.

    The other side is people saying a fetus has a soul because an old book told them so.

    It’s pretty clear which side should be backed. Not saying either side is perfect, but one side has a lot more supporting evidence than the other.

    Let’s not forget, the pro choice side is just that, you have a choice. No one is forcing anything, the other side is. Again, the choice is clear to me.

    The example of pushing a woman down the stairs is silly. The reason why it’s worse if she’s pregnant is because you took away her choice and opportunity to have that baby, after she is dealing with all that comes with being pregnant. That is not the same as a person who is a month in and doesn’t want it, by her choice.
