Thank you, apologies accepted.
It takes a big person to admit when your wrong, thank you for showing you arent a piece of shit, its appreciated and refreshing on an internet filled with the contrary.
Im not sure time is the question... 2 years or 20, if he hasnt gotten his bipolar under control does it matter? If he has been suffering untreated for 2 years then he really hasnt had even a second to apologize because he has never been in a headspace he could do so.
Correct me if im wrong but he has a history of relapses and if he does get better he has in the pest apologized for a lot of the shit he has done no?
But the point is, lets assume he hasnt taken his meds, or perhaps the meds arent working as is often the case. I dont think we are being the good guys attacking him, however justified, for what was ultimately a manifestation of a disease, one he continues to struggle with.
You dont think our behavior as a public, one that responds with hate rather than compassion, is likely to make his medication condition worse and harder for him to recover and get to a point he can honestly reflect?
Ok, what the fuck does that have to do with me.. Im not a medical doctor im a research scientist. I worked on diagnostic test for covid..... what is this delusion your on about gene therapies and injecting kids. I cant even legally use a needle on a person if I wanted.
What an idiotic uninformed, unrelated rant... holy hell. I think you need to see a doctor but I doubt that will happen.
Ok, but i never made **any** comment about if their conscious was good or bad, only that they followed it.
So why would you make a comment, and be mad about it, asking if they have a good or bad conscious when my comment didnt claim anything about the **quality** of their conscious?
In fact I made it quite clear I hate the GOP, so if anything if you were to read between the lines and infer something wouldnt it be that I feel the GOP has a bad conscious?
Im not talking about the name, im talking about the concept.
This doesnt actually change the concept, the concept is still a binary scale. All this points out is there are 2 other binary scales that describe politics we talk about less. But the point is the scale is still binary.
What this changes is simply how we visualize the data, the concepts themselves are the same after this new information.
> Funny what you think is left are all basic human rights in my country.
Are you suggesting the left doesnt support human rights, therefore by being human rights they are not on left oriented ideas?
Like ok, its a basic human right, so the left has some principles such as supporting basic human rights... how are you even disagrring?
> I’ll give you some real left actions:
So again your saying the left doesnt support human rights? and as such when i pointed that out was wrong?
> Increase taxes on the rich to post war levels.
Heading in this direction are both things Biden and Obama did, increasing tax on the rich.
> Close all corporate tax loopholes.
Against something both Obama and Biden worked towards by proposing on quite a few occasions to close corperate loopholes in the tax code.
> Nationalize essential utilities
That would indeed be an extremely left move. As far as I know no democrats have pushed for this. But when all of their policies are clearly on the left, not having pushed for some arbitrary policy on the left you want to see doesnt stop them from being left, it just makes them a less-extreme version of the left, that is all.
> Nationalize resources to fund society
This has been pushed for by both Obama and Biden. For example the nationalized fund that paid off school loans would be an example
> Salary caps on top level executives
I dont know if they actively pushed for this as a law or not. But they have stated several times they agree with this stance.
> Guaranteed living wages
Both Obama and Biden have consistently pushed for increases to try to get us to a living wage.
> Universal right to unionize
Both Obama and Biden have pushed to support the rights of unions to be forced on workers against their will and removing the right for workers to choose for themselves to join a union.. so yea they have done this too, its a big issue.
So almost everything you listed applies to Obama, Biden, and most democrats... glad we could agree democrats are on the left.
Huh? thats not a trichotomy since it is not "one, or the other, or the other"... If you could be only fully one of those three things, and not a combination, then it would be a trichotomy.
What you are really describing are three seperate scales of two dimensions each that are being visualized on the same chart, nothing more.
It is called a ternary plot
Who or what is a "pureblood"... Im a muggle sorry I dont interact with you wizards all that often.
Never used the term "plague rat" on a person though.
Can you list what policies of Biden or Obama's that either of them took action to execute in some way, that is a right-leaning policy stance?
As far as I know every single one of their policy stances and actions have been left side of the fence:
* increased restrictions on guns
* push towards universal single payer healthcare
* pro-abortion
* pro equal oppertunity
* pro free education/loan forgivness.
Literally cant think of a single thing they pushed for that is right.
And yes, obviously we want people to follow their conscious and be a good person... funny that huh, its almost like having a conscious is important, but so are other things.
Why would you have to restrain yourself? Are you suggesting you would feel the need to attack someone who hates the GOP like you but had a criticism of how the DNC could improve in some way and isnt perfect.
Hmm... that is troubling if thats the case.
For anyone following along, as a COVID researcjh scientist I deal with patients quite often and catch it often. Despite being vaccinated I've had it 7 times.
Here is a screenshot of him mocking me for having caught COVID 7 times despite being fully vaccinated and taking all the usual masking precautions... now ask yourself, you think this guy really cares about COVID victims? I mean why else is he started a hate campaign simply for being called out for posting something that would support anti-vax movements....
Here is the link he has in his comment in the screen shot for reference:
https://qoto.org/@freemo/111098838468485625
Also ask yourself why he made it private... maybe because he cares what the public thinks of him and wants his public image to be different than the truth.
Just a reminder @BetaCuck4Lyfe has a habit of going around and mocking vaccinated masked doctors who work with COVID infected people and catch COVID... Real piece of work.
Here is the link he has in his comment in the screen shot for reference:
https://qoto.org/@freemo/111098838468485625
This was in response to me pointing out some misinformation he posted to his page that would fuel anti-vaxxers, which apparently really pissed this dude off.
inb4: This was in response to me making a sarcastic comment that was clearly sarcastic in context but when shared out of context may be misleading... So be prepared im pretty sure his tactic will be to link an out of context quote but when you see the thread it is clear im arguing for the opposite. Luckily I took screenshots of his anti-vax/misinformation nonsense in case he tries this shit.
What? "They" has been used as a gender-neutral form similar to the gender neutral he for over 700 years. It is a well established part of the english language. What are you talking about?
He is literally going around mocking vaccinated people who get covid.
He did it in private cause he doesnt want anyone know his bs
But yea im sure he is totally acting in good faith
Then why did you waste mytime and engage in a long drawn out discussion when your intent was to just refuse to actually have a discussion and waste my time giving you the respect of listening, considering, and responding, if your intent going in was to be offended you would even need to read my response?
You really dont see how your acting like a child right now I guess huh? I mean until this point you did seem represent and i had high hopes. But clearly I was mistaken.
To whom do you mean? The left? The right?
I dont expect either side to have a conscious from what I've seen.
More importantly, why are you twisting my words? Anyone who read what i said clearly could figure out I wasnt saying they have a good conscious, only that they followed what they felt was right rather than what the group told them to do.
I have no love for the GOP my friend, but you are criticizing them for doing the one thing the democrats arent doing and should.... Vote their conscious rather than just agreeing with the group.
We **want** politicians who are there to vote whats right, not what their party tells them to vote.
Common mistake. That is a rule that has existed for quite a while, at least the 1800s and probably earlier.
> Rules start to "change" when people stops following them and makes up new ones, and stabilize when the change is so widespread that is formally accepted and taught (i.e., when rules "change" officially).
Sure, thats correct... but no one is making up new english rules, and no one is following them. So what are you talking about? Weve had pronouns and gender forever, nothing about this is a change or new....
> Every year, new words and meanings are accepted; grammar changes are not so frequent, but still happen. The only exception are dead languages.
Sure, and we do have new words and occasionally grammar rules. I certainly agree they **can** chance. But unless your talking about something I am unaware of at the moment there are no significant changes being considered to english's grammar. Even its rules around pronouns are the same as always, and no new proposals there I know of (except for "Xir" stuff which has almost no adoption)
