The 2017 General Political discussion thread, Part 2!

[Alpo]

I'm not going to shame someone for liking someone I don't like. And I'm not going to like someone just becomes someone I like likes someone. Dare to be an individual.

Press "like" if you like this message. Keep it to yourself if you don't. Reply with your dissent if you disagree.

I see you have been spending time on Facebook yelling "First!" in the comment sections.

tch tch

I don't spend one second of any day on face hole.

You certainly have "borrowed" the vlogger tag line then....

It's sarcastically poking fun at the language of today. Except it's YouTube.

 

[Alpo]

Oh yeah. Youtube. A step up from FB. Well...maybe.....

And the purple key is broken on your machine?

YouTube and really most of social media is a collection of individuals' inner persons. It can be a phenomenal tool for communicating ideas. Think of all the ideas that you've had in your life inspired by reading great works of literature. There are orders of maginitude more information out in the public domain now than ever before in history. You have to have a good filter though. There's also a lot of noise. Facebook doesn't appear to me to be a great venue for gleaning information. There's too much noise there. But YouTube and even twitter, has a better platform for filtering out noise. On facebook it's almost all noise.

Also, as a rule, I don't use purple. I leave it to people not to think the worst of me and assume that if it seems out of what you've come to know of my character, I probably mean it sarcastically. You know. Sith Lord and all.

Sometimes I use purple if I think there's a moral reason I need to communicate that I'm joking.

I get you, Jamil, though some are sarcasm-impaired and need a little help, a signal, a sign...

Often, it's just their self-directed and projected person.

Discovering and exposing the nuances of the inner person generally requires more interactivity.

No need...He is the Sith Lord of Sarcasm and literally baths in purple rain...

purple rain, purple rain.....

While Jamil has toyed with the eddy's in the great center island of the stream, he has undoubtedly decided to cast his lot along the right fork of the river. I therefore no longer give him the benefit of the doubt on snark. The right stream tends to take everything seriously and find need to comment on anything from Kenya to stiletto heels in Houston.

Meh.

Not every trip through the rapids offers you an unfettered choice of paths. A lot depends on initial conditions

How perfectly darling that the left (those of the 57 genders) would not recognize and acknowledge the triumph of style over substance

I think you misunderstand. I haven't decided to cast my lot along the right fork. That's where my proclivities have always been. That's just part of my personality and I understand that's where my biases are. But I'm not casting my lot with a tribe. I'm just trying to figure out what's true. And if you get snark from me, it's usually pretty obvious, and in my opinion, deserved.

 

[Alpo]

Ooooh. If you prick us do we not bleed?

LOL

I can tell you what is true. The Sessions DoJ says it has found no evidence of Trump Tower being wiretapped, obviously directly contradicting our president's "proof." This, of course, assumes that the DoJ and FBI are more competent that the president's own investigators.

 

[2A_Tom]

You for got there is also no evidence that anyone on the Trmp team was ever targeted in investigations by the FBI, CIA, or any other agency under Obama's control.

 

[Kutnupe14]

You forgot there is also no evidence that anyone on the Trmp team was ever targeted in investigations by the FBI, CIA, or any other agency under Obama's control.

Nope, I haven't forgotten.

The wiretap thing was bull**** from the start. Trump got caught up tweeting nonsense and had to make up stuff to cover.
